The best gift you can give yourself is some drive--that thing inside of you that gets you out the door to the gym, job interviews, and dates. The believe-in-yourself adage is grossly overrated.
Less than the dust beneath thy chariot wheel, less than the weed that grows beside thy door.
You only have to kick in the door and the whole rotten structure will come crashing down.
It's a fact of earthly life that when God opens the windows of heaven to bless us, the devil opens the doors of hell to blast us. When God begins moving, the devil fires up all his artillery.

Whether a man is a legend or not is decided by history, not fortune tellers.
Every man is the artisan of his own fortune.
Make sure the fortune that you seek is the fortune that you need.
