- 2. (Ben Stein)
- 3. Do you know anyone who was hopeless at school, but went on to become successful? It often happens and you wonder how an underachiever did so well in life. Take Richard Branson as an example. He left school aged 16, having only passed one exam. Im not sure how many he took, but most British school kids take about eight exams at that age. Yet even though he was dyslexic, and an academic failure, Branson went on to set up the Virgin Group. His global string of airlines, record companies, music shops and a mobile phone company have netted him an estimated US$2.5 billion dollars so far. No matter what you think of Richard Bransons bouffant hairdo and his publicity stunts, as a role model for success hes hard to beat

And the secret I've learned to getting ahead is being open to the lessons. Oprah Winfrey
- 9. Life's up and downs provide windows of opportunity to determine your values and goals. Think of using all obstacles as stepping stones to build the life you want. - Marsha Sinetar
- 11. Life is indeed difficult, partly because of the real difficulties we must overcome in order to survive, and partly because of our own innate desire to always do better, to overcome new challenges, to self- actualize. Happiness is experienced largely in striving towards a goal, not in having attained things, because our nature is always to want to go on to the next endeavor. Albert Ellis, Michael Abrams, Lidia Dengelegi, The Art & Science of Rational Eating, 1992
- 16. If you don't design your own life plan, chances are you'll fall into someone else's plan. And guess what they may have planned for you? Not much. - Jim Rohn
