More quotes by Og Mandino
Always let your reach exceed your grasp.
Og Mandino
I can accomplish far more than I have, and I will, for why would the miracle which produced me end with my birth? Why can I not extend that miracle to my deeds of today?
Og Mandino
Always strive to make the next hour better than this one.
Og Mandino
Let your actions always speak for you, but be forever on guard against the terrible traps of false pride and conceit that can halt your progress. The next time you are tempted to boast, just place your fist in a full pail of water, and when you remove it, the hole remaining will give you a correct measure of your importance.
Og Mandino
It is those who concentrate on but one thing at a time who advance in this world
Og Mandino
Why do we continue to breed little minds who can find no recompense for their own failures other than to belittle and mock the talents, even the dress, of others? When will everyone realize that we are all equal in the eyes of God?
Og Mandino
Never will I pursue happiness, because it is not a goal, just a by-product, and there is no happiness in having or in getting, only in giving.
Og Mandino
Without enthusiasm you are doomed to a life of mediocrity, but with it you can accomplish miracles.
Og Mandino
Live this day as if it will be your last. Remember that you will only find tomorrow on the calendars of fools.
Og Mandino
Today will never happen again. Don't waste it with a false start or no start at all.
Og Mandino
Nothing is easier than fault finding.
Og Mandino
My days of whining and complaining about others have come to an end. Nothing is easier than fault finding. All it will do is discolor my personality so that none will want to associate with me. That was my old life. No more.
Og Mandino
What is past is past. You can do nothing about yesterday and last month and the failures of last year, but you can do everything toward making tomorrow and the rest of your life what you always dreamed it could be.
Og Mandino
I will become a firefly and even in the day my glow will be seen in spite of the sun. Let others be as butterflies who preen their wings yet depend on the charity of a flower for life.
Og Mandino
You can't conquer reality by running away from it.
Og Mandino
So long as there is breath in me, that long will I persist.
Og Mandino
Practice the art of patience for nature never acts in haste.
Og Mandino
Laugh at yourself and at life. Not in the spirit of derision or whining self-pity, but as a remedy, a miracle drug, that will ease your pain, cure your depression, and help you to put in perspective that seemingly terrible defeat... Never take yourself too seriously.
Og Mandino
No, my son, do not aspire for wealth and labor not only to be rich. Strive instead for happiness, to be loved and to love, and most important to acquire peace of mind and serenity.
Og Mandino
Remind thyself, in the darkest moments, that every failure is only a step toward success, every detection of what is false directs you toward what is true, every trial exhausts some tempting form of error, and every adversity will only hide, for a time, your path to peace and fulfillment.
