In winter, I plot and plan. In spring, I move.

Our greatest glory is not in never falling but in rising every time we fall.

Never stand begging for what one has the power to earn.

We are what our thoughts have made us; so take care about what you think. Words are secondary. Thoughts live; they travel far.

If you put off everything till you're sure of it, you'll never get anything done.

For me, I'm focused on what I want to do. I know what I need to do to be a champion, so I'm working on it.

Years from now, after I'm gone, someone will listen to what I've done and know I was here. They may not know or care who I was, but they'll hear my guitars speaking for me.

People often say that motivation doesn't last. Well, neither does bathing - that's why we recommend it daily.

I will take fate by the throat; it will never bend me completely to its will.

Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.

How long should you try? Until.

The question isn't who is going to let me; it's who is going to stop me.

Good thoughts bear good fruit, bad thoughts bear bad fruit.

Be miserable. Or motivate yourself. Whatever has to be done, it's always your choice.

The way I see it, if you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain.

We must have perserverence and above all confidence in ourselves. We must believe that we are gifted for something.

The person who takes no chances generally has to take whatever is left when others are through choosing.

You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.

Out of your vulnerabilities will come your strength.

Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.

Sincerity and truth are the basis of every virtue.
