Many people ask me what my motivation is for writing. I believe that God has placed us on this Earth, not to be selfish, but to make the world better. We do this by helping others through the use of our skills and talents. I love to communicate. I enjoy exhorting others. I learned best about exhortation from recieving it.
In my books, you will find quotes. Some quotes are from me and some are from other sources. Regardless of where their from, they have changed my life. If people only new the power of the spoken and written word. Our words can change the world. Words are the first step to change. All that is left after that is to just do it.
These quotes I wrote and are featured in my books. I pray and hope these quotes inspire you. More can be found in my book, Life is a Game.
Life is a game; your success depends on how you play it.Success is all around you, but success is birthed within you. Nurture it, and grow it, because it is up to you to mature it and bring it out.
Your greatness begins and ends with your vision.
Seek excellence in all that you do. Be the best.
A risk without sacrifice is truly in vain. If no sacrifice is evident within the risk, the risk has no future.Sometimes you have to go where no one has gone or do something no one has done to become something nobody has been.
Do a self-inventory of your gifts and talents. Find a need in society for them, and now market them.
Success is not what you’ve done but what you will become.
Success is not what you’ve done but what you are doing.Success is an ongoing process and it never ends. Success that ends is failure. Success is always changing. Prepare for change, move with change, and success will reside in your life.
A man’s character and passion can be judged by how they use their time and what they do with their time.
Character is determined by how one spends their time.
Your past makes who you are, but your passion determines who you can be.
Passion, desire, success. All you need is within you.
Success in your marriage, success in your job, success in your hobbies, and even success with your children is wrapped up inside of you.Always be prepared and expect the unexpected.
Success is not just what a person feels, but will be evidenced by the effect that success has had on others.
The impact on another’s life is the true measure of greatness and success.Success is in your hands! Grasp it, hold on to it, and liveit out. Now that you realize success lies within you, it is time foryou to walk in its fullness.
