Love this quote! Just realize that the path you have chosen is a unique and great one. Relish the happenings and the time spent on it.
"Develop the winning edge; small differences in your performance can lead to large differences in your results."
Brian Tracy
"Every single one of us can do things that no one else can do - can love things that no one else can love. We are like violins. We can be used for doorstops, or we can make music. You know what to do."
Barbara Sher
"Find what you love and put your heart and soul, mind and body into it. When all the rivers of blood, sweat, and tears have watered the seeds of this passion, this love, and grown it into the fully bloomed flower of your dreams, there will come a pause, where the sheer sight, sound, smell, and feel of it will be, simultaneously, that of a peaceful calm and an exhilarating joy."

"In anything you do in your life, try to stay positive and motivated by the anticipation of future successes rather than fear of failure or past difficulties."
Written in 2008 by David Kuch --- Canada
In other words, only when you have the courage to turn within and learn about the inner laws of being (i.e. whatworked in the past and what didn't) and take the positive and constructive aspects, can you truly experience satisfaction in your life. I truly believe that if we envision a goal and stay positively focused, that anything is possible. Also, it's important to learn from past failures; whether it be in relationships, career or family. Without taking a risk and facing our fears, then an individual will never grow and will only stay stagnant.
"If you don't take a swing at the ball, then you don't have an opportunity to strike out. Worst of all though, you don't have an opportunity to hit the homerun to win the game. Take this and go out there swinging in the game of life. It's worth it!"

"We MUST always look at life with a bright eye instead of a nasty sigh...ALWAYS...no matter what."

"You're not fighting in a ring. There is no bell telling you when to start and stop, and the opponent in the other corner is not a guy with gloves on. It's you. And perhaps you're the scariest opponent of all. You know all of your weaknesses; know how to lose. Every time you get knocked down, you both lose and win, and the only person who cares whether you get up or not half wants you to stay down. But maybe this is easier than most fights. It's going to get easier, not harder, the more time that passes. It's between what you want and what you want more. You know you'll have setbacks, but it's your choice what happens next. Choose to fight!"

"Standards and Guidelines lead to the norm. Imagination and Interpretation lead to the unique."
Written in 2007 by Jeffrey B. --- California
I was writing to a fellow friend online. While trying to describe to her that it is impossible to critique one's writing style, this quote formed. I find it very inspiring and would only hope others may absorb the same.
"When you think to yourself, "Wow, that person is always so lucky, they always get whatever they want", think again. That is called manifestation. That person is visualizing, dreaming and taking action towards their goals. Always remember - your visions become your reality!"

"The best time to plant a seed and grow a tree was 20 years ago; the second best time is now."
Chinese Proverb --- Submitted by Whitney Rogers --- Arizona
We spend our entire life wondering why we didn't do this and didn't do that, YOU ARE NOT DEAD! Maybe we did not accomplish something in the past but who says you can't do it now?
"Know that every road we travel is just a journey. Some roads are smooth and straight while others are rough and full of turns. Either way they will take you to your final destination. So imagine taking your journey on the most beautiful Harley your mind can ponder and enjoy the ride!"
