If you go to work on your goals, your goals will go to work on you.
If you go to work on your plan, your plan will go to work on you. Whatever good things we build end up building us.

It doesn't matter which side of the fence you get off on sometimes. What matters most is getting off. You cannot make progress without making decisions.

It is the set of the sails, not the direction of the wind that determines which way we will go.
Jim Rohn

After God, let us have our conscience as our mentor and rule in all things, so that we may know which way the wind is blowing and set our sails accordingly.

You must take personal responsibility. You cannot change the circumstances, the seasons, or the wind, but you can change yourself. That is something you have charge of.
