Momentum builds success.

When you keep hitting walls of resistance in life, the universe is trying to tell you that you are going the wrong way. It's like driving a bumper car at an amusement park. Each time you slam into another car or the edge of the track, you are forced to change direction.

In life, most short cuts end up taking longer than taking the longer route.

Every flower blooms at its own pace.

When you find yourself in the thickness of pursuing a goal or dream, stop only to rest. Momentum builds success.

You can't move things by not moving.

Destiny reveals itself only when there is truth and action.

Never look back. The past is done. The future is a blank canvas. Work on creating a masterpiece. Only you have the power to make your painting beautiful.

Make your book of life a musical. Never abandon obligations, but have fun leaving behind a colorful legacy. Never allow anybody to be the composer of your own destiny. Take control of your life, and don't allow limitations implanted by society tell you how your music is supposed to sound — or how your book is supposed to be written.
