Failure

Your personal life, your professional life, and your creative life are all intertwined. I went through a few very difficult years where I felt like a failure. But it was actually really important for me to go through that. Struggle, for me, is the most inspirational thing in the world at the end of the day - as long as you treat it that way.
Skylar Grey

Leadership is solving problems. The day soldiers stop bringing you their problems is the day you have stopped leading them. They have either lost confidence that you can help or concluded you do not care. Either case is a failure of leadership.
Colin Powell

Success is simply a matter of luck. Ask any failure.
Earl Wilson

Winning is great, sure, but if you are really going to do something in life, the secret is learning how to lose. Nobody goes undefeated all the time. If you can pick up after a crushing defeat, and go on to win again, you are going to be a champion someday.
Wilma Rudolph

It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously that you might as well not have lived at all, in which case you have failed by default.
J. K. Rowling

Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything - all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important.
Steve Jobs

There can be no failure to a man who has not lost his courage, his character, his self respect, or his self-confidence. He is still a King.
Orison Swett Marden

"Success is the result of perfection, hard work, learning from failure, loyalty, and persistence."

Colin Powell


"Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm."

Winston Churchill


"Think like a queen. A queen is not afraid to fail. Failure is another steppingstone to greatness."

Oprah Winfrey


"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



"I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work."

Thomas A. Edison


"I can accept failure, everyone fails at something. But I can't accept not trying."

Michael Jordan


"Winning is great, sure, but if you are really going to do something in life, the secret is learning how to lose. Nobody goes undefeated all the time. If you can pick up after a crushing defeat, and go on to win again, you are going to be a champion someday."

Imagination

A good teacher can inspire hope, ignite the imagination, and instill a love of learning. Brad Henry You can't depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus. Mark Twain The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination. Albert Einstein I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge. That myth is more potent than history. That dreams are more powerful than facts. That hope always triumphs over experience. That laughter is the only cure for grief. And I believe that love is stronger than death. Robert Fulghum Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and charm and gaiety to life and to everything. Plato Every human has four endowments - self awareness, conscience, independent will and creative imagination. These give us the ultimate human freedom... The power to choose, to respond, to change. Stephen Covey Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere. Alb...

Nothing is better than going home to family and eating good food and relaxing. Irina Shayk Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Melody Beattie If you want to conquer fear, don't sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy. Dale Carnegie Every day is a journey, and the journey itself is home. Matsuo Basho A man travels the world over in search of what he needs and returns home to find it. George A. Moore Let the wife make the husband glad to come home, and let him make her sorry to see him leave. Martin Luther Happy, happy Christmas, that can win us back to the delusions of our childhood days, recall to the old man the pleasures of his youth, and transport the traveler back to his own fireside and quiet home! Charles Dickens I love you - I am at rest with you - ...
