The price of success is self discipline

Self discipline in little things lead to self discipline in great things

Many want to succeed but are not willing to pay the price

Conquer all your weakness – physical, mental, moral, emotional etc

Perseverance is a training ground, the harder the training, the more effective and experienced you become.

The story of Abraham Lincoln is an outstanding one. His business flopped in 1831, couldn’t win the legislative in 1832, He experienced another business failure in 1834. Persevering further, he won the legislative in 1834, but was defeated again for the speaker in 1838. He was also defeated for the elector in 1840 and had another defeat for the congress in 1843, before winning it in 1846. His bid for the congress in 1848 was not successful and was defeated for the senate in 1855. He had yet another defeat for the vice president in 1856. He couldn’t win the senate in 1858 but finally won the presidency in 1860. His final success reduced his failures to insignificance.

The higher you climb the better the view, keep going high and never say stop

You cannot estimate the achievement of those who consistently, continually, insistently, incessantly, persistently, perseveringly, indefatigably & indomitably pursue all objectives.

Work smarter, not harder.

The higher we soar, the more we see and are seen.

Every unsolved problem underrates & dares my intelligence and my ability. I am a dullard if that problem remains unsolved and I just complain about it.

It is one thing to itch for something; it’s another to scratch for it.

He who lives without discipline dies without honour.

It is not the problem that matters but how we react

Nobody is defeated until they start blaming someone else when things don’t work fine.

Some people are bad spellers, they spell ‘service’ as ‘serve us’.

In every worthwhile endeavour there will be challenges and obstacles.

Life gives us obstacles to see how badly we want it and how serious we are about it.

The difference between ordinary and extraordinary is that little extra

The best way to better our lot is to do a lot better.

Don’t complain about what you allow, you have a choice; if it hurts that bad, you should have gotten up and done something. You still complain because it hasn’t hurt too much.

Don’t be 100% better at one thing but the 1% better at a hundred things.

If it is to be, then it’s up to me.

Everyday you wake up is a good morning, if you don’t believe it, try missing one – Zig Ziglar

Love life! Have fun! Never underestimate the power, potential and possibilities of the human spirit. Life really is a blast.

Life is a lot like going to church, many attend... but few understand – Scott Skiles

Stevie Wonder was blind, Franklin Delano Roosevelt was crippled, Winston Churchill was a stutterer but they didn’t give up. Roosevelt was the only president ever elected 4 times. Jimmy Carter was elected 3 consecutive times so what excuse do you have not to make impact in life?

Life consists not in holding good cards but playing those you hold well.

Nothing gets moved until someone moves them, so move something

Don’t give up until you’ve made the last try but there’s no last try until you have succeeded

Every adversity holds within it the seeds of undeveloped possibility

God uses life’s bruises if we surrender them to him

What looks like an end to the road will turn out to be a bend

I’d rather attempt something great and fail than attempt noting and succeed.

Everybody that fails after attempting something great is really a winner at last the fear of trying has been conquered.

FAILURE DOESNT MEAN

Failure doesn’t mean you’re a failure ... it means you haven’t succeeded yet

Failure doesn’t mean you’ve been a fool ... it means you had a lot of faith

Failure doesn’t mean you don’t have it... it means you have to do something differently.

Failure doesn’t mean you’re inferior... it means you’re not perfect

Failure doesn’t mean wasted time... it means there’s reason to start afresh

Failure doesn’t mean you should give up... it means you must try harder

Failure doesn’t mean you’ll never make it ... it means it will take a little longer

People favour underdogs but follow only top dogs ... Fight for some underdogs anyway

What you spent years building may be destroyed overnight ... Build anyway

Give the world the best in you and you’ll get kicked in the teeth ... Give the best in you anyway

Poverty is an option that is unconsciously chosen while success is a choice with a price attached – Whada Tobexy

A lot of people want to live normal lives with normal activities, in the company of normal people, striving for normal goals in normal places with normal commitment, normal determination ,normal discipline, normal motivation and a normal education taught by normal teachers in normal classes who give normal grades in a normal way and leaving a normal heritage to their normal children who grow up in a normal way, live in normal homes with a normal family eating normal food and doing normal things in normal schools where they learn normal things like reading a normal book, doing a normal sum, speaking a normal language, taking a normal challenge, studying a normal course, accepting a normal defeat because it’s normal, sleeping in a normal ways on a normal bed and thinking in a normal way, die a normal death and are buried in normal graves.

She said “No Daddy”. The he asked her “Aren’t you afraid?” Her response was revealing “NO Dad, cause I’m with you and you know the way to go”. That is love! That is trust! If only we could learn to trust God that way. We need to love God enough to say “I don’t know where I am, I don’t know where I’m going, but it’s OK because I am with you Lord and you know they way.”

Rather than praying for an easier life, pray to be a stronger person, rather than praying for challenges equal to your abilities, pray for abilities equal to your challenges. – Phillip Brooks.

If I appear great before people’s eyes, the Lord is most graciously holding me to see how absolutely nothing I am without him and helping me to keep little in my own eyes.

He made it; he sharpened it and used it. The moment he throws it aside, it becomes only old iron. O’ that I may never lose sight of this – Samuel Brengle.

No pessimist ever made a great leader so ... be an optimist.

The cautious man draws valuable lessons from history and traditions, but he is in danger of being chained to the past.

I ask myself isn’t it possible to have al lively church and not go beyond the will of God?

If YES, that’s what I anticipate, cos it’s the place to be. – Whada Tobexy

I don’t believe God meant the church to be boring, neither do I believe he wants only super-holy Christians to be in Church. I think he wants the super-holy Christians outside the Church, so they can seek, find and bring under-holy sinners who will grow up to become super-holy Christians who are in search of other under-holy sinners. So if you think you’re so holy, help others attain your height by encouraging and not criticizing or bastardizing them in thought, speech and in deed.

To succeed, you need life, without it; you’re dead and to be active, you need good health; without it you’re inactive – Whada Tobexy

This is one of the most common reasons relationships on campus don’t last; the people involved are still evolving. With time people begin to discover that their values are changing, their beliefs are changing, their priorities are changing, their needs are changing and their direction begins to change as well. What you once thought was significant begins to lose meaning, your emphasis begins to change and your philosophy of life is being gradually fine tuned. The gap continues to widen as they discover that they have very little in common, contrary to their initial assumption and the relationship finally... smashes violently into the rocks and shatters.

The purpose of education is to replace an empty mind with an open one – Michael S. Forbes.

If you always think of yourself as a bad guy, you’ll always find ways to do bad things.

If your church cannot change you, you should change your church.

When obstacles arise, to reach your goal, change your direction, not your decision.

The moment you give up, you’re thrown into the dustbin of failure never to be recycled.
