Doing The Best We Can





Don’t measure yourself 
by what you have accomplished, 
but by what 
you should have accomplished 
with your ability. 
 John Wooden

Success means 
doing the best we can
 with what we have.
 Success is the doing,
 not the getting;
 in the trying,
 not the triumph.
 Success is a personal standard, 
reaching for the highest
 that is in us,
 becoming all that we can be.
Zig Ziglar

Recognize The Possibilities

“Only if you’ve been in the deepest valley can you ever know how magnificent it is to be on the highest mountain.”  Richard Nixon “You do not need to know precisely what is happening, or exactly where it is all going. What you need is to recognize the possibilities and challenges offered by the present moment, and to embrace them with courage, faith and hope.”   Thomas Merton Explore This Website

A Life of Gratitude

To speak gratitude is courteous and pleasant, to enact gratitude is generous and noble, but to live gratitude is to touch Heaven. Johannes A. Gaertner To live a life of gratitude is to open our eyes to the countless ways in which we are supported by the world around us. Such a life provides less space for our suffering because our attention is more balanced. We are more often occupied with noticing what we are given, thanking those who have helped us, and repaying the world in some concrete way for what we are receiving. Gregg Krech Explore This Website
