The drive, move and push in a fresh breath of words

Everyday we are in desperate need of the impetus to go that extra mile and advance in all that we are and do. Sometimes we feel we are incredibly deficient of the 'cutting edge' mettle that we hanker for.

Sample these quotations to get the drive...

1. Africa is not a poor continent; it is filled with people of poor mentality.
-Dr Handlie Leslie

2. One of life's greatest tragedies is that majority of the world's population is composed of individuals who have negotiated an agreement with mediocrity, signed a contract with the average and pledged allegiance to ordinary.
-Myles Monroe

3. If I wanted to become a tramp, I would seek information and advice from the most successsful tramp I could find. If I wanted to become a failure, I would seek advice from people who have never succeeded. If I wanted to succeed in all things, I would look around me for those who are succeeding and do as they have done.
-Joseph Marshal Wade

4. I'll go anywhere as long as it's forward.
-David Livingstone

5. You don't luck into things. You build them step by step, whether it's friendships or opportunities.
-Barbara Bush (American First Lady, wife of President George Bush)

6. When the past wants to dominate your thoughts, let your dreams ignite your day.

7. If a man hasn't discovered something that he will die for, he isn't fit to live.
-Martin Luther King Jnr

8. A man could do nothing if he waited until he could do it so well that no one could find fault with what he has done.

9. You can achieve anything you want in life if you have the courage to dream it, the intelligence to make a realistic plan and the will to see that plan through to the end.

10. Most men stop when they begin to tire. Good men go until they think they are going to collapse. But the very best know the mind tires before the body and push themselves further and further beyond all limits. Only when all these limits are shattered can the unattainable be reached.
You can be that bit better if you try.
Don't give up: do all that's in your power to perform.
Face each day positively. And give to the world the best that you have,
and the best will, definitely, come back to you.
