"Welcome every morning with a smile. Look on the new day as another special gift from your creator, another golden opportunity to complete what you were unable to finish yesterday. Be a self-starter. Let your first hour set the theme of success and positive action that is certain to echo through your entire day. Today will never happen again. Don't waste it with a false start or no start at all. You were not born to fail."
Og Mandino

Albert Einstein

"Some people bear three kinds of trouble - the ones they've had, the ones they have, and the ones they expect to have."
