No individual can achieve worthy goals without accepting accountability for his or her own actions.

The key to success is to be true to who you really are.

A goal is a dream with a timeframe on it.

Don't wait on perfect conditions for success to happen; just go ahead and do something!

Sorrow, anger and resentment look back, worry looks around, while faith, hope, and optimism look to the future.

Don't be indecisive and unstable in all your ways. Rather, walk in the strength, confidence, and boldness that come from decisive action.

Perfectionism is not as much the desire for excellence, as it is the fear of failure couched in procrastination .

Money is ultimately not enough compensation for investing your time and energy: there has to be a sense of purpose, meaning and fulfillment.

This is the central illusion in life: that randomness is a risk, that it is a bad thing.

I feel I have lived my whole life, day to day, without planning anything and I like it that way. Things change so fast, one minute you are here, the next minute you are on a plane, it's great fun.

Two incomplete people can't complete one another. Complete yourself and then let someone else complement you.
