Quote from Burtakus:
dicipline, integrity, honesty, understanding, respect for those around you, a love for what you do, the desire to always be better than you were yesterday, focus on a goal or goals, and a passion for living life to its fullest.
Quote from AMT4SWA:
When everyone tells you that you can't make it or that you will fail, you have to just BELIEVE in yourself. I feel that "who believes the most...wins!". Only death can stop the person who TRULY BELIEVES! Lets see, in life who truly believed in their abilities;
Wright Brothers
Thomas Edison
Jesse Owens
1980 USA Hockey Team
General Patton
The Founding Fathers
Apollo 11 Crew
this is just a very small list of a range of people who had extraordinary results in their lives from the ability to Believe!
Quote from dbphoenix:
You're making a logical error here since there is unlikely to be a record of those who BELIEVED yet failed anyway. Who'd care?
lol. excellent point. There are probably 10,000 who believed and failed for each one who has made it big. The key point, imo, is to realize that there is a hell of lot more to life than fame, fortune, success, et, ad nauseum.
