Success is a decision, not a gift. - Steve Backley, The Champion in all of Us: 12 Rules for Success

"Just identify the very first physical action you need to take, and do it."

"Like everything in life, it is not what happens to you but how you respond to it that counts."

"The people and successes in your life mirror your beliefs."

"Look for solutions, instead of being difficult; be more thoughtful, instead of allowing anger to burn you out. Look at things from a different perspective, embrace change, look out for opportunities and you will feel much more in control."

"Share your aspirations only with those who will support you, not those who will respond with doubt or lack of interest."
