Dear Friend:

Alan Beam was an astronaut on Apollo 12. When asked what he learned about success over the years, this was his answer:

The most important quality I have noticed in successful people is that they have a dream . . . . They think and work toward that dream every day.

I often ask people to tell me their dream. "What did you do today to move you closer to your dream?" Eighty-five per-cent
didn't do anything. They're planning to do something next week, they're just too busy today.

These 85% will probably never see their dream come true. So ask yourself the same question, "What have I done today to make my dream come true?"

If the answer is "Nothing specific," then you will never make it unless you change your ways.

There are only two types of people in the world: those who do and those who don't. The difference between them is: those who do--DO and those who don't--DON'T.

share with you one of my favourite quotation,

"If you persist, if you continue to try, if you continue to charge forward. You will succeed."

Every achievement starts from a dream, an idea conceived in mortal mind. Tell yourself, you have to and you can, do it. It will then turns into a powerful passion which become a sense of purpose, a mission you need to complete and do remember to fuel your fire with dogged determination.

why am i writing all these?

OOh.. Quote I created:

Look Into The Eyes Of Today Instead Of Leaning On The Post Of Tomorrow.
