Your dreams are your vision of where you'll be after the battle, your prize at the end of your journey to success. Your goals are the steps you take to finally attain your prize. Unless you're willing to work hard and establish some discipline in your life, all of your dreams will be pipe dreams, little mental fantasy trips that will never materialize. Make concrete steps toward fulfilling your ultimate dream, and start with solid objectives and goals. Your dreams are where you want to go, your goals are how you get there. The indispensable first step to getting the things you want out of life is this: decide what you want. Don't be afraid to think big and dare to be great. Dreamers are not content with mediocrity. They never dream of going halfway. People with goals succeed because they know where they're going. T.D.G

There is no such thing as no chance. Don't think about the things you can't do. Think about the things you can do. No matter what the level of your ability is, you have more potential than you can ever develop in a lifetime. You have powers you never dreamed of. You can do things you never thought you could do. There are no limitations to what you can do except the limitations of your own mind. Your range of available choices right now is limitless. Look at things as they can be. T.D.G

Don't be afraid of what life has to offer you. When you believe that life is worth living, your belief will help create the fact. The barrier between you and success is not something that exists in the real world. It's simply composed of doubts about your ability. Your only limits to your realization of tomorrow will be your doubts of today. Success is a state of mind. If you want to be successful, start thinking of yourself as being successful. What you believe yourself to be, you are. T.D.G

You cannot have the success you seek without some failures too. Any experience can be transformed into something of value. Everything depends on the way you look at things. What appear to be stumbling blocks and defeat before you can be stepping stones to victory if you remain determined. In all of your adversities lies the seeds of equivalent advantages. In every defeat there is a lesson showing you how to win the next time. View your problems as opportunities. When it's dark enough you can see the stars. T.D.G

If you want to be successful, you can start at any time. But you must start. Don't make the mistake of not doing anything because you can only do a little. Do what you can do. It will always be your attitude at the beginning of any difficult task which, more than anything else, will affect its successful outcome. To be aware of what you want and not go after it, to spend years wondering if something could have materialized, and never knowing if it could have been, is a tragic waste of your life. The worst thing you can do is not to try. To reach a port, you must sail. You must sail, not lie at anchor. You must sail off in the direction of your dreams, not drift. A journey of a thousand miles, begins with one step.
