“John Wooden didn’t win his first national title until his 16th season at UCLA. Starbucks didn’t reach store #5 until 13 years into its history. Sam Walton (Walmart) didn’t open his 2nd store until 7 yrs after starting his company. Be persistent. Success takes time.”

“Let today be a day where you take nothing for granted. For life is fleeting, fragile and precious and can change on a whim. Say all the things you really want to say to your loved ones today, say the things you would regret should they pass on and your words remain unspoken. Rejoice, for you and they are alive today-and should you or them pass on to unknown shores, rejoice even more for you have a wonderful love story to tell.”
— Jackson Kiddard
“The only constraints that you have on your income and advancement potential are those you place upon yourself. If you don’t like your position, or if you are unhappy with your salary, do something about it. What can you do to make yourself more valuable to your department or your company? What tasks have not been completed because no one has the time or the inclination to take care of them? Look around and identify things that need to be done. Don’t wait to be asked. If you make it a habit to seek out opportunities, to take on new tasks, you will increase your knowledge about the organization and become such a valued employee that your company can’t afford to lose you.”
— Napoleon Hill
