We win half the battle when we make up our minds to take the world as we find it, including the thorns.

Exceed yourself

You’ve figured out how to get it done. Now figure out how to do it even better.

Expect the best of yourself. Then find a way to exceed those expectations.

Be pleased with what you’ve done, and satisfied with how far you’ve come. But don’t let it make you complacent.

No matter what you’ve done before, today is your opportunity to exceed yourself. Where you are is not a place to rest indefinitely, but rather a place from which to move forward.

Each achievement sets the stage for even greater achievement. Every fulfilling experience opens the door to even greater fulfillment.

Challenge yourself to exceed yourself. You deserve the best, and you deserve to keep making the best even better and better.

— Ralph Marston
