Life, Time & Experience

Experience is not  what happens to you; it is what you do with what happens to you. Aldous Huxley  Time, like life itself, has no inherent meaning. We give our own meaning  to time as to life.   Jonathan Lockwood Huie    Explore This Website

Great Element of Success

Being defeated  is only a temporary condition; giving up is what makes it permanent. Marilyn vos Savant "Perseverance is  a great element of success. If you only knock long enough  at the gate, you are sure to wake up somebody." Henri Wadsworth Longfellow  Explore This Website

Encouragement Does More

"When things go wrong as they sometimes will, When the road you're trudging seems all up hill, When the funds are low and the debts are high And you want to smile, but you have to sigh, When care is pressing you down a bit, Rest if you must, but don't you quit. Life is queer with its twists and turns, As every one of us sometimes learns, And many a failure turns about When he might have won had he stuck it out; Don't give up though the pace seems slow-- You may succeed with another blow, Success is failure turned inside out-- The silver tint of the clouds of doubt, And you never can tell how close you are, It may be near when it seems so far; So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit-- It's when things seem worst that you must not quit." ~Unknown~ 'Correction does much,  but encouragement does more.'     Johann Wolfgang Goethe Explore This Website

Reason To Suceed

“If you have no one  to encourage you,  instead of using that as an excuse for failure,  encourage yourself and  use that as a reason why you must succeed.” Kevin Ngo “I’d rather be a failure at something I love than a success at something I hate.” George Burn   Explore This Website

Extraordinary Perseverance

With ordinary talent  and extraordinary perseverance,  all things are attainable.   Thomas Foxwell Buxton Nothing in the world  can take the place of persistence. Talent will not;  nothing in the world is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not;  unrewarded genius is a proverb. Education will not;  the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.  Calvin Coolidge Explore This Website

Gratification of Wealth

The reason we have poverty  is that we have no imagination. There are a great many people accumulating  what they think is vast wealth, but it's only money...  they don't know how to enjoy it, because they have no imagination. Alan Watts    The gratification of wealth  is not found in mere possession or in lavish expenditure,  but in its wise application.  Miguel de Cervantes Explore This Website
