King of the Birds, Lord of the Skies
Gather ye rose buds while ye may, old time is still a flying;
and this same rose that you see today, tomorrow will be dying.

Nurturing What Matters - Family

Always reward your long hours of labor & toil in the very best way, surrounded by your family. Nurture their love carefully, remembering that your children needs models, not critics, & your own progress will hasten when you constantly strive to present your best side to your children. And even if you have failed at all else in the eyes of the world, if you have a loving family, you are a success.

The Greatest Salesman in the World

"I will persist until I succeed.
I was not delivered into this world into defeat, nor does failure course in my veins.
I am not a sheep waiting to be prodded by a shepherd.
I am a lion and I refuse to talk, to walk, to sleep with sheep.
The slaughterhouse of failure is not my destiny.
I will persist until I succeed".

- Og Mandino,
From 'The Greatest Salesman In The World'.

Never Quit

Whenever you make a mistake or get knocked down by life, don't look back at it too long. Mistakes are life's way of teaching you. Your capacity for occasional blunders is inseparable from your capacity to reach your goals. No one wins them all, and your failures, when they happen, are just part of your growth.
Shake off your blunders. How will you know your limits without an occasional failure?
Never quit. Your turn will come.
