Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice and most of all, love of what you are doing or learning to do. (Pele)

Believing in negative thoughts is the single greatest obstruction to success.

“If you salute your duty, you no need to salute anybody, but if you pollute your duty, you have to salute everybody.”

“If you get tired, learn to rest not to quit!”

“A friend who understands your tears is much more valuable than a lot of friends who only know your smile.”

“Sometimes the things that hurt the most teach us the best lessons.”

“The spirit of democracy is not a mechanical thing to be adjusted by abolition of forms. It requires change of heart.”

“Show your anger when needed. People need to know what irritates you and what doesn’t. But, crucially, remain internally calm. Your anger is only a tool. Don’t become its puppet.”

“Carry out a random act of kindness, with no expectation of reward, safe in the knowledge that one day someone might do the same for you.”

“Beauty is not in the face; beauty is a light in the heart.”

“It is important that we forgive ourselves for making mistakes. We need to learn from our errors and move on.”

Other things may change us, but we start and end with the family.

Live your best, and act your best, and think your best each day, for there may be no tomorrows.
