Your improvement may bother people who are used to you existing below their level. They may openly campaign for you to get your life together, but they secretly relish their superiority over you.

Progress on the social ladder is almost always the result of progress in other areas of your life.

The biggest enemy of future success is arrogance, indifference and the unwillingness to learn, unlearn, relearn, change and grow.

When it comes to progress, the process of discovering which incentives will help you move forward is a large part of the equation.

One should be more concerned about what his conscience whispers than about what other people shout.

Know your limits, but don't be afraid to set the bar a little higher each time so that eventually you will be unlimited.
