“The person who is not master of himself can never be master of others.”- Napoleon Hill

“You are the architect of your own life.”– Napoleon Hill

“You can do great things in life if you are your best self.”– E. Bright

“Only I can change my life. No one can do it for me.”– Carol Burnett, actress

“What is the point of being alive if you don’t at least try to do something remarkable.”– John Green, author

If you want to achieve greatness in your life, you must be who you are. You must be your real self.Don’t worry about what people are saying about you. Focus on what is important to you, and how you are going to get the results you are looking for.

Accept yourself the way you are. Don’t let anyone put you down, or talk you down. Choose your fight wisely. Don’t fight petty fight. They are irrelevant. They will not help reach your goals. They will set you back. When people disagree with you, respectfully tell them how you feel, and move on.

Don’t let negative comments affect your life. Why? Because there are people out there whose sole purpose is to make you unhappy, to tear you down, to point out what is wrong about you, to tell you that you are not good enough, to tell you that you are doing the wrong course. It is their opinion, not yours. Their negative comments about you will affect you only if you allow them into your life, only if you allow them to stay in your life.

If you dismiss them immediately and replace them with positive comments about yourself, they will not stay. They will fade away. Remember, if you don’t play negative comments in your head, you will not remember them, you will forget them. So, if you want to deal with negative talk, replace them with positive ones.

You are who you are. Don’t try to be who you are not. If you do that, you are not living your life, you are living someone else’s life. To move forward in life, learn how to live your own life

“A Promise Made Is A Debt Unpaid.”

Integrity is promise made promise kept. If you say one thing and do another, you have broken your promise.

If you want to live a great life, always do what you say you will do. People will trust you. People will want to be with you. People will always tell you their secrets. People will nominate you for a leadership position, because they know you will not let them down.

Robert W. Service said, “A promise made is a debt unpaid.” There is respect in doing what you say you will do. There is trust in doing what you say you will do. Don’t promise A, and do B. People will not trust you. Once you lose your trust, you can’t really do anything of value on your own. You need people to help you succeed. No one succeeds alone.

“Wall your talk.” Do what you say you will do, and people will be ready to help you do it.
