"Some look at the glass half full; Others see it half empty; I look at the Empty Glass and see the potential there is to Fill it full."

There is only one thing you are sure to do in your life, but before you get there, try to do as many things that you can do, while you can and most importantly, because you can.

"There is no greater calling gift or attitude than the simple gift of gratitude"

Never define yourself by the man who happens
To be in your life at any given moment.

It is not enough
Not to mean to do something.
You must MEAN not to do it!

"Begin with the end in mind"

One life we get, and it, so short,
So fill it with action, as well as thought.

With skin of steel,
And a heart of stone,
What can you feel,
When you're all alone?
