Excellence is not a skill. It is an attitude.
Ralph Marston

Happiness is a choice, not a result. Nothing will make you happy until you choose to be happy.
Ralph Marston

Gratitude is the smile of love.
Ralph Marston
Image
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.

Live what you love, and love what you live. Anything less is a painful and frustrating waste of your precious time.
Ralph Marston
Image
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.
