“Unless you try to do something beyondwhat you have already mastered,you will never grow.”- Ronald E. Osborn

"My mother drew a distinction between achievement and success. She said that achievement is the knowledge that you have studied and worked hard and done the best that is in you. Success is being praised by others. That is nice but not as important or satisfying. Always aim for achievement and forget about success --- Helen Hayes

"Keep a good heart. That's the most important thing in life. It's not how much money you make or what you can acquire. The art of it is to keep a good heart." --- Joni Mitchell

"When you are content to be simply yourself and don't compare or compete, everybody will respect you." --- Lao-Tzu

"You cannot put the same shoe on every foot." --- Publilus Syrus

1. Experience is what you get when you didn't get what you wanted.
   
2. The brick walls are there for a reason. The brick walls are not there to keep us out.
   The brick walls are there to give us a chance to show how badly we want something.
   Because the brick walls are there to stop the people who don't want it badly enough. They're there to stop the other people. 
   
3. Decide if you're Tigger or Eeyore. Never lose the childlike wonder.
   It's just too important. It's what drives us. Help others.
   
4. Apologize when you screw up and focus on other people, not on yourself.
   
5. Anybody can get chewed out. It's the rare person who says, oh my god, you were right.When people give you feedback, cherish it and use it.
   
6. Don't complain. Just work harder.
   
7. Be good at something, it makes you valuable.
   
8. Be prepared. Luck is truly where preparation meets opportunity.
