This Will Always Solve Problems

Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'Press On' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.

Calvin Coolidge

Pick Ourselves Up

Burning desire to be or do something gives us staying power - a reason to get up every morning or to pick ourselves up and start in again after a disappointment. 

Marsha Sinetar

Faced With A Mountain

Never let a problem become an excuse.

When faced with a mountain, I will not quit! I will keep on striving until I climb over, find a pass through, tunnel underneath - or simply stay and turn the mountain into a gold mine, with God's help!

Robert H. Schuller

The Greatest Salesman in the World

1. Today I begin a new life.
2. I will greet this day with love in my heart.
3. I will persist until I succeed.
4. I am nature's greatest miracles. I am unique.
5. I will live this day as if it is my last. And if it is not, I shall fall to my knees and give thanks.
6. Today I will be master over my emotions.
7. I will laugh at the world.
8. Today I will multiply my value a hundredfold.
9. This is the time. This is the place. I am the man. I will act now.
10. I will pray for guidance.
