Having once decided to achieve a certain task, achieve it at all costs of tedium and distaste. The gain in self confidence of having accomplished a tiresome labor is immense.
- Thomas A. Bennett
With distractions, it's helpful to follow the goals of the day, or many competing interests block success.
Quote of the Day:
Every failure is a step to success.
- William Whewell
Imagine if everybody quit after the first attempt. We'd have no Olympics, since their endless practises precede their performances,...
Not many people are willing to give failure a second opportunity. They fail once and it's all over. The bitter pill of failure is often more than most people can handle. If you're willing to accept failure and learn from it, if you're willing to consider failure as a blessing in disguise and bounce back, you've got the potential of harnessing one of the most powerful success forces.
- Joseph Sugarman
I think I'm thinking in "black and white" mode when I give up after one try. That's why baseball has so many strikes, and that "other" category(balls?), fouls, etc.
Quote of the Day:
If you want to take your mission in life to the next level, if you're stuck and you don't know how to rise, don't look outside yourself. Look inside. Don't let your fears keep you mired in the crowd. Abolish your fears and raise your commitment level to the point of no return, and I guarantee you that the Champion Within will burst forth to propel you toward victory.
- Bruce Jenner
Finding a point of return, means finding circumstances to help me, encourage me, and discourage returning to unproductive live behaviours.
Many men fail because they quit too soon. They lose faith when the signs are against them. They do not have the courage to hold on, to keep fighting in spite of that which seems insurmountable. If more of us would strike out and attempt the "impossible," we very soon would find the truth of that old saying that nothing is impossible... abolish fear and you can accomplish anything you wish.
- Dr. C. E. Welch
Quote of the Day:
The mind is the limit. As long as the mind can envision the fact that you can do something, you can do it, as long as you really believe 100 percent.
- Arnold Schwarzenegger
I wish my mind could convince my sore back(from shovelling snow) that my back isn't sore.
Quote of the Day:
It is a paradoxical but profoundly true and important principle of life that the most likely way to reach a goal is to be aiming not at that goal itself but at some more ambitious goal beyond it.
- Arnold Toynbee
I'm not sure this applies to snow shovelling.
