The gift of imperfection - let go of who you think you're supposed to be and embrace who you are.

99% of genius comes from hard work, the remaining 1% comes from innate talent

Success is not final, failure is not fatal.  It is the courage to continue that counts.

Work on your weaknesses until they are your strengths and work on your strengths until they are second nature.

Focus on progress, not perfection. Practise a little bit every day - little and often  Slow and steady wins the race.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than the things you did do

Hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard.

Don’t compare yourself to others. Compare yourself to the person you were yesterday.

Run in the morning before your body figures out what you're doing

Don't fear failure, fear being in the same exact same place next year as you are now.

Mistakes have the power to turn you into something better than you were before.

Tomorrow is worth more than yesterday but less than today.

A book a day keeps the stupidity away.

There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.

It is never too late to turn an unproductive day into a productive one.
