Motivational Tips:


  1. Determination and perseverance — not talent! — is the key to success.

  2. To stay motivated to succeed, don’t compare yourself to others. Your success is incomparable.

  3. Setting and achieving goals is the first step…the next step is nurturing your dreams so they stay alive. Success, motivation, and energy are intertwined.

  4. Don’t let past failures, regrets, or mistakes color your goals.

  5. We are not in a position in which we have nothing to work with. We already have capacities, talents, direction, missions, and callings. (Abraham H. Maslow)
