— Benjamin Franklin
Prime Yourself to Win
Greatness treats failure as temporary, because a setback is a moment in time, not a verdict on his future, and the man who refuses to let any single loss define him stays in the game long enough to succeed.
Learn from Failure
“A person of integrity says what he means and means what he says.”
— Unknown

Quote of the Day

“Never interrupt someone doing something you said could not be done.”
— Amelia Earhart

Principle of the Day

Greatness embraces the risk that comes with trust, because meaningful relationships require it, and avoiding that risk closes off opportunities that would have produced far more than any loss he tried to prevent.
