“The longer you have to wait for something,
the more you will appreciate it when it finally arrives.
The harder you have to fight for something,
the more priceless it will become once you achieve it.
And the more pain you have to endure on your journey,
the sweeter the arrival at your destination.
All good things are worth waiting for
and worth fighting for.”
~ Susan Gale
“Four steps to achievement:

“One day it just clicks.
You realize
what’s important and what Isn’t.
You learn to care less about
what other people think of you
and more about
what you think of yourself.
You realize how far you’ve come
and you remember
when you thought
things were such a mess
that you would never recover.
And you smile.
You smile because you are
truly proud of yourself
and the person
you’ve fought to become.”

“If, in 10 years,
you were to look back
at your actions of today,
what would you change?
Always be asking yourself
in terms of your goals
and how you want to live.”
~ Craig Ballantyne more
“Start each day with a task completed.
Find someone to help you through life.
Respect everyone.
Know that life is not fair
and that you will fail often.
But if you take some risks,
step up when the times are toughest,
face down the bullies,
lift up the downtrodden
and never, ever give up .
if you do these things,
then the next generation
and the generations that follow
will live in a world far better
than the one we have today.”
~ Adm. William Harry McRaven
“Sometimes
the smallest step
in the right direction
ends up being
the biggest step
of your life.”
