Learning to expect problems saved me from a lot of wasted energy. Winners see problems as just another way to prove themselves.

Difficult times don't come your way just so you can survive them; God uses these times in your life to form and refine you.

That's the story of my life; I always get the fuzzy end of the lollipop.

Life is 10 percent what happens to you and 90 percent how you respond to it.

Mistakes are a fact of life. If you are willing to be wrong then you have earned the right to be right.

He that struggles with us strengthens our nerves, and sharpens our skill. Our antagonist is our helper.

The school of life offers some difficult courses, but it is in the difficult class that one learns the most.

When you commit to transforming your life, you commit to getting very uncomfortable over and over and over again.

It's the willingness to keep pushing through new challenges, not shrink from them back into your comfort zone, that separates the successful from the unsuccessful.

Staying the course involves some bends in the road. Being stubborn, refusing to go with the flow, will leave you in a ditch with an airbag exploded in your face. Never give up, course correct when necessary, and have faith that if you have the desire, the Universe has your back.

Rough seas make better sailors.
