“Choose action, not rest. Choose truth, not fantasy. Choose a smile, not a frown. Choose love, not animosity. Choose the good life in all things, and choose the opportunity as well as the chance to work when springtime smiles on your life.

We have only the demonstrated experiences of others to draw upon. The storms of life could cancel our efforts expended in the fields of opportunity. But to expend no effort during the spring will assure no results during the fall.” (Jim Rohn, Seasons of Life)

“The only one who can tell you ‘you can’t ‘ is you. And you don’t have to listen.” (Nike)
