Coffee Thoughts \ Persevere

Winners never quit and quitters never win. – Vince Lombardi

Coffee Thoughts \ Use Failure As A Stepping Stone To Success

“Develop success from failures. Discouragement and failure are two of the surest stepping stones to success.” Dale Carnegie

The ability to focus is one of the qualities that separates the winners from those who are left behind. If you can’t focus you will not advance.

Coffee Thoughts \ Don't Be Afraid To Be Different

“Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”  -- Steve Jobs

Don't be afraid to be different. 

Coffee Thoughts \ Value Your Time and Talent

 “If you don’t value your time, neither will others. Stop giving away your time and talents. Value what you know & start charging for it.” -- - Kim Garst

You teach others how to treat you. If you don’t value yourself others will overlook you and your talents. Honor yourself.

Coffee Thoughts \ Don't Let Your Environment Limit You

Coffee Thoughts \ Take A Risk For Yourself

 “If you don’t build your dream, someone else will hire you to help them build theirs.” -- Dhirubhai Ambani

Whose dream do you want to spend your life working on -- yours or someone else’s? Let go of your fear of failure and take a risk for yourself.

Coffee Thoughts \ Define Yourself
