Favorite quotes, sayings or words to live by.

My two favorite sayings.

I was being interviewed by my hometown newspaper about my life and my career. They wanted to know how I got started doing what I do. I told them, "Sometimes you pick your career in life, and sometimes it picks you." I fall into the latter.

On my Facebook page, it says, "Find a job you love and you'll never work a day in your life."

To that, I just add a quote from my wife. "Yeah, that lazy bum has never worked a day in his life."
 
Not so much a quote, but an awesome speech.

“Raising your level of performance requires a proper mentality and meaning from within. This gives you the ability and drive to work on the things necessary to go to a higher level. When people ask me how to raise their level of performance, the first thing I ask is, How important is it to you”

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Despite the high cost of living, it's still popular.

Experience is what you get right after you needed it.

and a few by Calvin Coolidge...

Don't expect to build up the weak by pulling down the strong.

If you see ten troubles coming down the road, you can be sure that nine will run into the ditch before they reach you.

Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated failures. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.
