Time

[bar]

[TITLE]

If you must kill time, work it to death.

He who kills time injures eternity.

Take time to think---it is the source of power.
Take time to play---it is the secret of perpetual youth.
Take time to read---it is the fountain of wisdom.
Take time to pray---it is the greatest power on earth.
Take time to love and be loved---it is a God-given privilege.
Take time to be friendly---it is the road to happiness.
Take time to laugh---it is the music of the soul.
Take time to give---it is too short a day to be selfish.
Take time to work---it is the price of success.

Time is a versatile performer.
It flies, marches on, heals all wounds, runs out, and will tell.
FRANKLIN P. JONES

Why is there never enough time to do it right,
but always enough time to do it over?

One thing you can learn by watching the clock
is that it passes the time by keeping its hands busy.

When God wants to grow a squash He grows it one summer;
but when He wants to grow an oak He takes a century.
JAMES A. GARFIELD

Our days are identical suitcases---all the same size
but some people can pack more into them than others.

ACTION

Everything comes to him who hustles while he waits.
THOMAS EDISON

Roadside sign in Kentucky:
"Pray for a good harvest, but keep on hoeing!"

Did is a word of achievement,
Won't is a word of reteat,
Might is a word of bereavement,
Can't is a word of defeat,
Ought is a word of duty,
Try is a word each hour,
Will is a word of beauty,
Can is a word of power.

The thing to try when all else fails is again.
Giving it another try is better than an alibi.

God, save us from hotheads who lead us to act foolishly,
and from cold feet that would keep us from acting at all.
PETER MARSHALL

Don't stand shivering upon the bank; plunge in at once, and have it over with.
SAM GLICK

Progress always involves risk;
you can't steal second base and keep your foot on first.
FREDERICK WILCOX

AGING

You can tell you are growing older when...

You get winded playing checkers.
Your children begin to look middle-aged.
You look forward to a dull evening.
You know all the answers, but nobody's asking you the questions.
You join the health club-and don't go.
You sit in a rocking chair and can't get it going.
Your knees buckle, and your belt won't.
You burn the midnight oil at 9:00 P.M.
Dialing long distance wears you out.
Your back goes out more often than you do.
The little gray-haired lady you help across the street is your wife.
You have too much room in the house and not enough in the medicine cabinet.
You sink your teeth into a steak, and they stay there.
Everything hurts, and what doesn't hurt doesn't work.
You can't stand people who are intolerant.

DETERMINATION

Nothing is so common as unsuccessful men with talent.
They lack only determination.
CHARLES SWINDOLL

Some men succeed because they are destined to,
but most men because they are determined to.

He who doesn't climb the mountain cannot see the view.

Big shots are only little shots who kept on shooting.
DALE CARNEGIE

Consider the hammer; It keeps its head. It doesn't fly off the handle.
It keeps pounding away. It finds the point, then drives it home.
It looks at the other side, too, and thus clinches the matter.
It makes mistakes, but when it does, it starts all over.

The difference between an unsuccessful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack of will.
VINCE LOMBARDI

DIRECTION

The winds of God are always blowing, but you must set the sails.

The world stands aside to let anyone pass who knows where he is going.
DAVID STAFF JORDAN

The greatest thing in the world is not so much where we are,
but in what direction we are moving.
OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES

GOALS

The poor man is not he who is without a cent, but he who is without a dream.
HARRY KEMP

Choose a goal for which you are willing to exchange a piece of your life.

A person who is going nowhere can be sure of reaching his destination.

Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off the goal.
HANNAH MOORE

Most of us serve our ideals by fits and starts.
The person who makes a success of living
is the one who sees his goal steadily and aims for it unswervingly.
CECIL B. DEMILLE

SUCCESS

Recipe for success: Study while others are sleeping;
work while others are loafing;
prepare while others are playing; and dream while others are wishing.
WILLIAM A. WARD

Success often comes from taking a misstep in the right direction.

President Schwab of Bethlehem Steel said that success was 10% ability,
10% appearance, 5% availability, 5% sdaptability, and 70% attitude!

If you want to be successful, it's just this simple:
Know what you're doing. Love what you're doing.
And believe in what you're doing.
O.A. BATISTA

All the roads to success are uphill.

You will find the key to success under the alarm clock.

There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation,
hard work, and learning from failure.
COLIN L. POWELL

Success is never final and failure never fatal. It's courage that counts.
GEORGE TILTON

Success consists of getting up just one more time than you fall.
OLIVER GOLDSMITH

Elbow grease is still the best lubricant for success.
