More quotes by Ralph Marston

Ralph Marston
The best way to handle good fortune is to do something positive and useful with it. The best way to handle misfortune is exactly the same.
Ralph Marston
Don't waste time on excuses. Just get it done.
Ralph Marston
Stopping before you reach the goal does not make the discouragement go away. All it does is make the discouragement permanent. Instead, keep going, keep making the attempt, until you make that last, fulfilling attempt that brings the success you desire.
Ralph Marston
Achievement does not require extraordinary ability. Achievement comes from ordinary abilities applied with extraordinary persistence.
Ralph Marston

Ralph Marston
Dreams are unrealistic, impractical, demanding - and absolutely essential to living a rich and fulfilling life.
Ralph Marston
Beset by a difficult problem? Now is your chance to shine. Pick yourself up, get to work and get triumphantly through it. The time you spend living in fear is time you cannot spend living in love. The time you spend hiding and retreating from life is time you cannot spend growing and advancing and achieving.
Ralph Marston
Carrying a grudge is difficult work that brings nothing of value. Forgive, and be free.
Ralph Marston
Be thankful for it all. And beyond your many blessings, will be many, many more.
Ralph Marston
The real person you are is revealed in the moments when you're certain no other person is watching. When no one is watching, you are driven by what you expect of yourself.
Ralph Marston
Choose to live in a place where your eyes are always open to the positive possibilities.
Ralph Marston
Every day you spend drifting away from your goals is a waste not only of that day, but also of the additional day it takes to regain lost ground.
Ralph Marston
It doesn't matter how much you want. What really matters is how much you want it.
Ralph Marston
What a joy it is that the road ahead is an uphill climb. For where it leads is all the way to the top.
Ralph Marston
