Your life is not a coincidence, it's a reflection of you. If you'd like to know who is responsible for the majority of your troubles, take a look at the mirror and you'll deduce that it's time for us to stay out of our own way.
Life will give you back everything you have given to it. Our business in life is not to get ahead of others; but to get ahead of ourselves. It is impossible for man to be cheated by anyone but himself which implies that our best friends and our worst enemies are the thoughts we have about ourselves.
Here's the first rule of winning: don't beat yourself. Have you found that your biggest enemy is you? The basic problem most people have is that they are doing nothing to solve their basic problem. The problem is they build a case against themselves. They are their own worst enemy.
We lie loudest when we lie to ourselves. You can't consistently perform in a manner that is inconsistent with the way you see yourself. Determine to multiply your commitment, divide your distractions, subtract your excuses and add your faith. The first key victory you must win is over yourself.
In life we are sure to be losers when we quarrel with ourselves; it is civil war. Your future depends on many things, but mostly on you.
