RALPH WALDO EMERSON

"Ability is what you're capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it."

"The only thing worse than being blind is having sight but no vision."

"If opportunity doesn't knock, build a door." 

"Unless you try to do something beyond what you have already mastered, you will never grow." 

"People who say it cannot be done should not interrupt those who are doing it." 

"When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us."

"Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever." 

"Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else." 

"Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened." 

"Don't be afraid to be amazing." 

"If we did all the things we are capable of doing, we would literally astound ourselves."

"It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop."

"Success occurs when opportunity meets preparation" 

"Don't lower your expectations to meet your performance. Raise your level of performance to meet your expectations. Expect the best of yourself, and then do what is necessary to make it a reality." 

"Don't watch the clock; do what it does. Keep going."

"We are what we do.

 Excellence, therefore, is not an act, but a habit."

"Try and fail,but don't fail to try."

"The secret of getting ahead is getting started" 

"If you can dream it, you can do it." 

"All things are difficult before they are easy." 

"Dont count the things you do, do the things that count." 

"Those who follow the crowd usually get lost in it."

"Watch your thoughts, they become words. Watch your words, they become actions. Watch your actions, they become habit."
