"Self-confidence results, first, from exact knowledge; second,..." - Quote by Napoleon Hill

“Within every adversity is an equal and opposite benefit.”

“No man can afford to express, through words or acts, that which is not in harmony with his own beliefs, and if he does so, he must pay by the loss of his ability to influence others.”

“If you do a job another's way, he or she must take the responsibility. If you do it your way, you must take the responsibility.”

“The very purpose of our life is happiness, which is sustained by hope. We have no guarantee about the future, but we exist in the hope of something better. Hope means keeping going, thinking, ‘I can do this.’ It brings inner strength, self-confidence , the ability to do what you do honestly, truthfully and transparently.”

“It’s in our interest to take care of others. Self-centrednes s is opposed to basic human nature. In our own interest as human beings we need to pay attention to our inner values. Sometimes people think compassion is only of help to others, while we get no benefit. This is a mistake. When you concern yourself with others, you naturally develop a sense of self-confidence . To help others takes courage and inner strength.”

“Self-confidence may be mistaken for egotism if it is not accompanied by humility of the heart.”

“Remember that the more you know, the less you fear.”

“Demand me nothing: what you know, you know.”

“All understanding begins in wonder!”
