Guy Finley
No one rises above who he or she has been without first having fallen down. The best time - in fact, the only time - to make a real change in your life is in the moment of seeing the need for it. He who hesitates always gets lost in the hundred reasons why tomorrow is a better day to get started.

Guy Finley
Once something has outlived its usefulness in one area of life, its purpose for being in existence is no longer the same.
