errors in judgment, repeated every day. It's the
accumulative weight of our disciplines and our
judgments that leads to either fortune or failure.' —— Jim
Rohn, an
American Business
Philosopher

yourself —
and doing so will be the single best investment you
will ever make.'

Highly Effective People

in the world can
take the place of
Persistence. Talent
will not; nothing is
more common than
unsuccessful

talent. Genius will
not; unrewarded
genius is almost a

alone will not; the
world is full of
educated derelicts.
Persistence and
Determination alone
are omnipotent.'
—— (Unknown)
