The Study of Applied Principles of Virtuous-Living!

    The eight laws of learning are explanation, demonstration, imitation, repetition, repetition, repetition, repetition, repetition. John Wooden   We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit. Will Durant   Whatever we plant in our subconscious mind and nourish with repetition and emotion will one day become a reality. Earl Nightingale   It's the repetition of affirmations that leads to belief. And once that belief becomes a deep conviction, things begin to happen. Muhammad Ali     Repetition of the same thought or physical action develops into a habit which, repeated frequently enough, becomes an automatic reflex. Norman Vincent Peale   There is no substitute for attentive repetition. Daniel Coyle   Habits are formed by the repetition of particular acts. They are strengthened by an increase in the number of repeated acts. Habits are also weakened or broken, and cont...

    The best thing we can do for ourselves is to make consistent progress. So, instead of letting our challenges weaken our mettle, we should use these wise words to re-frame them as opportunities to learn, grow and perform better, going forward.   A difficult time can be more readily endured if we retain the conviction that our existence holds a purpose - a cause to pursue, a person to love, a goal to achieve. John C. Maxwell   Determination and perseverance move the world; thinking that others will do it for you is a sure way to fail. Marva Collins     Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not: nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not: the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. Calvin Coolidge   “Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can...

    I am thankful for all of those who said NO to me. It’s because of them I’m doing it myself. – Albert Einstein   Enthusiasm is a kind of faith that has been set on fire. _George Matthew Adams   If you want to be average, do what others do. If you want to be awesome, do what no one does. – Alexander Den Heijer   Beliefs have the power to create and the power to destroy. Human beings have the awesome ability to take any experience of their lives and create a meaning that disempowers them or one that can literally save their lives. – Tony Robbins   I’m a person who gets better with practice. Getting older is awesome – because you get more practice. – Zooey Deschanel   It doesn’t matter if you’ve failed or if you’ve been beaten. All that matters is that you learn something, get back up, and try again. Because winning is a good feeling, but winning when nobody else thought you could is an awesome feeling. – Ritu Ghatourey   ...

  You will never change your life until you change something you do daily. The secret of your success is found in your daily routine. John C. Maxwell   The secret of your future is hidden in your daily routine. Mike Murdock   A daily routine built on good habits and disciplines separates the most successful among us from everyone else. The routine is exceptionally powerful. Darren Hardy   Think in the morning. Act in the noon. Eat in the evening. Sleep in the night. William Blake   Over time, as the daily routines become second nature, discipline morphs into habit. Twyla Tharp   My daily routine is to make every day the best day. David Wolfe   The big things that come our way are ... the fruit of seeds planted in the daily routine of our work. William Feather   Long term success is a direct result of what you achieve everyday. Goals (should) provide (guidance for) your daily routine. Rick Pitino ...

    The ability to concentrate and to use time well is everything. Lee Iacocca   The best advice I ever came across on the subject of concentration is: Wherever you are, be there. Jim Rohn   Concentration is the ability to think about absolutely nothing when it is absolutely necessary. Ray Knight   Success in any endeavor requires single-minded attention to detail and total concentration. Willie Sutton   Concentration is a fine antidote to anxiety. Jack Nicklaus   What does it take to be a champion? Desire, dedication, determination, concentration and the will to win. Patty Berg   Don't dwell on what went wrong. Instead, focus on what to do next. Spend your energies on moving forward, toward finding the answer. Denis Waitley   It is wise to direct your anger towards problems - not people; to focus your energies on answers - not excuses. William Arthur Ward   The key to success is to f...

    I think frugality drives innovation, just like other constraints do. One of the only ways to get out of a tight box is to invent your way out. Jeff Bezos   There are no constraints on the human mind, no walls around the human spirit, no barriers to our progress except those we ourselves erect. Ronald Reagan   The more constraints one imposes, the more one frees one Igor Stravinsky   The more constraints one imposes, the more one frees one's self. And the arbitrariness of the constraint serves only to obtain precision of execution. Igor Stravinsky   There is no doubt that directing television has helped hone my directing skills. What television teaches you is to be efficient and to think on your feet. You have to adhere to strict deadlines and budget constraints. Emilio Estevez   You don't have to travel, but I find extended travel to be a helpful tool for reexamining yourself and the constraints you've artificially...

    A clear vision, backed by definite plans, gives you a tremendous feeling of confidence and personal power. Brian Tracy   The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don't have any. Alice Walker   Your personal power is not something that is going to reveal itself at some later date. Your power is a result of your decision to reveal it. You are powerful in whatever moment you choose to be. Marianne Williamson
