We all need to realize that we're on a journey, and we are making progress.

I am not where I need to be, but thank God I am not where I used to be.

i dare you Slow Down and Use Your Mind Properly 1. Be determined to pay attention to the things around you, like flowers, trees, a child playing, or your family who loves you. 2. Commit to reading something that is not work-related for at least thirty minutes a day. 3. Get up twenty minutes earlier than you do right now and spend that time with God. Ask Him to show you how He wants you to use your time that day.

Everyone can be a 10 at something, but our problem is that we often work so hard on trying to overcome our weakness that we never develop our strengths.

I'm not where I need to be, but Thank God I'm not where I use to be. I'm okay and I'm on my way!

Books are not men—

Now I see the secret of the making of the best persons.

Make no man your idol, for the best man must have faults; and his faults will insensibly become yours, in addition to your own.

As William Penn put it: "Those people who are not governed by God will be ruled by tyrants." Remember... that those tyrants are often self-imposed roadblocks of your lower self at work.

Books, you know, Charles, are like lobster-shells. We surround ourselves with 'em, and then we grow out of 'em and leave 'em behind, as evidences of our earlier stages of development.

Anyone who isn't embarrassed of who they were last year probably isn't learning enough.

We become like the five people we spend most of our time with; Oh, we've got to be picky, and you might have to fire a few people who don't belong in that inner circle because they can't help you be your best and further your purpose.
