Harvey Mackay
Look in the mirror every day and say, I am in charge. You might not have control over every phase of your life, but you have more control than you realize, and you are responsible for your own happiness and success.
Harvey Mackay
Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right. Forget about those who don’t. Believe everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would most likely be worth it.
Harvey Mackay

Harvey Mackay

Harvey Mackay
I have never yet met a successful person who hasn't had to overcome either a little or a lot of adversity in his or her life. If life there is a lot of lumps and bumps... a lot of throttling up and a lot of throttling down.
Harvey Mackay
There is no shame in taking pride in achievements or position. But nobody gets to the top alone.
Harvey Mackay
It isn't the quality of the ideas you have that will determine whether you make a success of them, it's the qualities you bring to those ideas.
Harvey Mackay
To be a champion, you have to learn to handle stress and pressure. But if you've prepared mentally and physically, you don't have to worry.
