"Es mejor morir en pie que vivir de rodillas." -- Emiliano Zapata
Motivate: Algunas personas miran a su alrededor y sólo ven infinitos problemas. Otros, ante el mismo panorama, ven infinitas oportunidades. Algunas personas ven a su trabajo sólo como una manera de sobrevivir. Otros con un trabajo similar, ven la manera de destacarse. Algunos ven lo que deben hacer y se sienten desanimados. Otros ven lo que pueden lograr haciéndolo y se entusiasman. Algunos son muy hábiles a la hora de buscar excusas. Otros, allí mismo pueden descubrir oportunidades. ¿Que ves tú? Lo que ves no depende tanto de lo que hay sino de lo que estás buscando. Aquellos que consiguen lo que desean y disfrutan del éxito lo viven así por que tienen la capacidad de visualizar ese éxito y ese logro. Lo que tú puedes ser, y tener, y conseguir y experimentar no depende tanto de lo que estés mirando sino de lo que decidas ver.

"Lo que un hombre es contribuye mucho mas a su felicidad que lo que tiene, o como es considerado por otros." -- Arthur Schopenhauer
Motivate: Los diamantes tienen numerosas aplicaciones practicas en taladros y otras herramientas para cortar, pero eso no es lo que hace a los diamantes tan valiosos. Los diamantes autenticos son valuosos porque son raros y muy dificiles de adquirir. Eso es util de recordar cuando te encuentras con limitaciones. Esas limitaciones dan valor a lo que sea que estes trabajando para conseguir. Entre mas dificil el logro, mas valioso es. Los diamantes tienen valor porque uno debe escarbar duro por largas horas para encontrar uno. Las cosas que llegan facil o sin esfuerzo, tienen poco o nada de valor. para crear algo de mucho valor, uno generalmente tiene que superar un desafio de gran magnitud. Estas escarbando por diamantes, o solo retirando a paladas la tierra? Busca desafios; ellos son los que brindan valor.

"Great is the road I climb, but the garland offered by an easier effort is not worth the gathering." --Sextus Propertius (50BC-16AD) Roman Poet
Motivate: When was the last time anxiety knocked at your front door? Have you ever met stress walking down the street? When did you ever answer the telephone and discover anger on the other end of the line? Things such as stress, anxiety and anger do not exist in real, tangible form. They exist only in you and only with your cooperation. They are not grown in a field or manufactured in a factory. They are created in your head. And as such, there is no need for you to "deal" with them or "resolve" them. You have it in your power to simply annihilate them or, better yet, to avoid giving birth to them in the first place. Do not let your anxieties control you. Do not let them do anything. Do not let them be. Just throw them away. What good are they? Why allow them to clutter and complicate your life? It takes a lot of energy to create and to maintain stress, anxiety and fear. Redirect that energy toward something positive and creative. It's your energy. It's your life. Use it to be joyful.

The hero is the one who kindles a great light in the world, who sets up blazing torches in the dark streets of life for men to see by. The saint is the man who walks through the dark paths of the world, himself a light.
--Felix Adler
Motivate: When you treat people as if they're no good, they'll prove you right almost every time. Expectations make a significant difference in performance and results. What do you expect of yourself? What do you expect of others? Expectations are often a self-fulfilling prophecy. So it makes sense to expect the very best. Is that reasonable when past experience proves otherwise? Yes, because people can change. You can change. And the beginning of that change is often a change in expectations. The way to get the best out of yourself and others is to expect the best. No matter how disappointed you've been in the past, with yourself or with someone else, the way to start getting positive results is with positive expectations. Expect the best. Proceed under the assumption that you'll get the best, from yourself and others, and you're well on your way to getting it.

Persistence will win over just about any advantage. The longer you persist, the closer you are to winning. Even when you are constantly beaten back, even when the road is steep and strewn with giant boulders, keep going. The value of your accomplishment increases with every difficulty you encounter on the way to it. And you must persist in order to realize that value. Whatever it takes, keep going. Every moment you persist builds equity in your dream. The glory, the joy, the fulfillment of life come from persistence through the troubles, the frustrations and the obstacles. You already know that. You've experienced it before. And now, today, is yet another opportunity to keep going, to persist through whatever may come. It's the best opportunity you could possibly imagine. So make the most of it. Keep going. Persist in your efforts. And fulfill your own incredible possibilities.
