1. Passion:
Far and away the best prize that life offers is the chance to work hard at work worth doing.” – Theodore Roosevelt
Never work just for money or for power. They won’t save your soul or help you sleep at night.” – Marian Wright Edelman

“The two most important days of your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why.” – Mark Twain
Purpose may point you in the right direction but it’s passion that propels you.” – Travis McAshan
2. Motivation:
“But failure has to be an option in art and in exploration–because it’s a leap of faith. And no important endeavor that required innovation was done without risk. You have to be willing to take those risks.” – James Cameron
“If you are insecure, guess what? The rest of the world is, too. Do not overestimate the competition and underestimate yourself. You are better than you think.” – T. Harv Eker
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sail. Explore. Dream. Discover.” Mark Twain
“The moment you doubt whether you can fly, you cease forever to be able to do it.” J.M. Barrie
“Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy.” Dale Carnegie
3. Failure:
If we didn’t have failure, how would we know what to do next? The process of learning from our mistakes is truly invaluable, and is something we need to run toward, not run away from.
“There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work and learning from failure.” – Colin Powell
“Failure is only the opportunity to begin again, only this time more wisely.”– Henry Ford
“Don’t be afraid to fail. Don’t waste energy tryingto cover up failure. Learn from your failures and go on to the next challenge. It’s OK to fail. If you’re not failing, you’re not growing.” – H. Stanley Judd
“There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible: the fear of failure.” – Paulo Coelho
4. Success:
“The first step toward success is taken when you refuse to be a captive of the environment in which you first find yourself.” Mark Caine
“Successful and unsuccessful people do not vary greatly in their abilities. They vary in their desires to reach their potential.” John Maxwell
“Success is just a war of attrition. Sure, there’s an element of talent you should probably possess. But if you just stick around long enough, eventually something is going to happen.” Dax Shepard
“Success does not consist in never making mistakes but in never making the same one a second time.” George Bernard Shaw
“You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backward. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something–your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.” Steve Jobs
