People who come up with "It may not work" or "What are we going to do if it fails?"
do not have the credentials to be businessmen. If there is only a 1 percent chance
of success, a true businessperson sees that 1 percent as the spark to light a fire.
-Kim Woo-Choong
If I feel depressed I will sing.
If I feel sad I will laugh.
If I feel ill I will double my labor.
If I feel fear I will plunge ahead.
If I feel inferior I will wear new garments.
If I feel uncertain I will raise my voice.
If I feel poverty I will think of wealth to come.
If I feel incompetent I will think of past success.
If I feel insignificant I will remember my goals.
Today I will be the master of my emotions.
-Og Mandino
I would never have amounted to anything were it not for adversity.

No wind favors he who has no destined port.

rather than travel the worn paths of accepted success.

than to take rank with those who neither enjoy much or suffer much,
because they live in the gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat.
