In a issue of SUCCESS there are several quotes about success, a few of which I've included below today's message. I don't know what you do with quotes or ideas that have the potential to inspire but over the years I have saved many so I can read them later. During my first year of teaching in 1964 is when I found a quote by Robert Browning that still remains my all-time favorite: "Ah, but a man's reach should exceed his grasp, or what's a heaven for?"
I can still remember very vividly the first time I read it. I was at my little apartment and I stretched out my right arm and looked at my grasp and thinking, what am I reaching for? What are you reaching for? Always remember that whatever it is it's just beyond your grasp which means there is work to be done.
Enthusiastically,
Gary Burke
“Don't be afraid to give your best to what seemingly are small jobs. Every time you conquer one it makes you that much stronger. If you do the little jobs well, the big ones will tend to take care of themselves.” - Dale Carnegie“Every pessimist who ever lived has been buried in an unmarked grave. Tomorrow has always been better than today, and it always will be.” - Paul Harvey“Before success comes to most people, they are sure to meet with some success, and perhaps some failure. When faced with defeat, the easiest and the most logical thing to do is to quit. That’s exactly what the majority of people do.” - Napoleon Hill
