"Adversity is an opportunity for self-discovery...." - Quote by John C Maxwell

“Business schools reward complex behavior but it's the simple behavior that makes you successful in life”

“I wish I could say I coined the phrase "failing forward." I do it all the time. I find as I've embraced this approach to business, life, cycling and generally any new endeavor I take on, I've grown more and more comfortable with the possibility that I am not likely to succeed on my first try. And that's ok.”

“In the end, people are persuaded not by what we say, but by what they understand.”

“When the sea was calm all ships alike showed mastership in floating.”

“If, like the prophet Noah, you have patience in the distress of the flood, Calamity turns aside, and the desire of a thousand years comes forth.”

“Tough times teach trust.”

“Seize the very first possible opportunity to act on every resolution you make, and on every emotional prompting you may experience in the direction of the habits you aspire to gain.”

“I have been long a sleeper; but I trustMy absence doth neglect no great designWhich by my presence might have been concluded.”

“Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today.”
