[Quote No.103] Need Area: Mind > Focus
"There once was a very strange race held in the fresh snow. Three children were to run to a prize on the other side of the field with the winner being the child that ran the straightest.. When the race began the first child kept watching his feet to see if his steps were straight. The second child kept watching his friends to see how they were doing. The third child just kept watching the prize and ran. The third child's footsteps were the straightest, as he had kept his eyes on the prize as we all should in life." - Seymour@imagi-natives.com

[Quote No.120] Need Area: Mind > Focus
"Whenever you go out of doors, draw the chin in, carry the crown of your head high, and fill the lungs to the utmost; drink in the sunshine; greet your friends with a smile, and put soul into every handclasp. Do not fear being misunderstood and do not waste a minute thinking about your enemies. Try to fix firmly in your mind what you would like to do; and then, without veering off direction, you will move straight to the goal. Keep your mind on the great and splendid thngs you would like to do, and then, as the days go gliding by, you will find yourself unconsciously seizing upon the opportunities that are required for the fulfilment of your desire, just as the coral insect takes from the running tide the element it needs. Picture in your mind the able, earnest, useful person you desire to be, and the thought you hold is hourly transforming you into that particular individual... Thought is supreme. Preserve a right mental attitude - the attitude of courage, frankness, and good cheer. To think rightly is to create. All things come through desire and every sincere prayer is answered. We become like that on which our hearts are fixed. Carry your chin in and the crown of your head high. We are gods in the chrysalis." - Elbert Hubbard

[Quote No.144] Need Area: Mind > Focus
"The longer I live, the more importance I attach to a man's ability to manage and discipline himself...The man with the capacity for self discipline can tell himself to do the truly important things first. Therefore, if there is not enough time to go around and something must be neglected, it will be the less essential task. Here is the most interesting thing about the capacity for self-discipline. He who wants it may have it!...The one ingredient we most need for success is ours for the asking, for the wanting, if we only want it enough!" - Ray Kroc

[Quote No.647] Need Area: Mind > Focus
"The majority work [give effort] to make a living; some work [give effort] to acquire wealth or fame, while a few work [give effort] because there is something within them which demands expression. The majority dislike work [effort]. Only a few truly love it. Nearly everybody wearies of work [effort] and there is only a limited number that gain strength from work [effort]. The average person works [gives effort] because he has to, so that it is the exceptional one who works [gives effort] because he wants to.

[Quote No.648] Need Area: Mind > Focus
"We do not understand the true nature of work [effort], and therefore dislike it. When we learn to understand work [effort], we shall go to work [effort] with just as much delight as we go to our pleasure. And when we consider the real purpose of work [effort] and discover the work [effort] that builds the man, we will consider it a far greater privilege to work [give effort] for everything we need or desire, than to go to a free mine and take all the gold we can carry away.

[Quote No.653] Need Area: Mind > Focus
"...in the highest sense, work [effort] is meant to be the servant of man, not the master. It is not so important what shape or form our work [effort] may take; what is vitally important is our attitude toward that work [effort]. With love and enthusiasm directed towards our work [effort], what was once a chore and hardship now becomes a magical tool to develop, enrich and nourish our lives.

[Quote No.660] Need Area: Mind > Focus
"Every action that produces things through the work [effort] of man, at the same time produces something of worth in the man himself. The action that builds a house or a machine, can at the same time build up the mind, the character and the personality of the builder. The power that paints a picture, writes a book or composes an opera, can at the same time add worth, quality and ability to that mind through which the work [effort] is being done.
