SOME THINGS TO THINK ABOUT:
“Be more concerned with your character than with your reputation. Your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.” ~ Dale Carnegie
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“ One of the best prizes that life has to offer is the opportunity to work hard at work worth doing.” ~ Theodore Roosevelt
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“The mind is an incredibly powerful thing. The thoughts you entertain are what determine your reality.” ~ Yehuda Berg
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“The idea is to see how good you can get. Practice does not make perfect. Perfect is a by-product of learning from your mistakes. If you learn and are honest, that’s what gives you mastery.” ~ Dean “Bullwinkle” Fidelman

“At a very early stage of human evolution, our ancestors discovered the advantages of having a way of preserving and disseminating the results of their experiences: telling stories, writing, art, music and acting.” ~ adapted from a quote by Aldous Huxley
