The man who can but doesn't has no advantage over the man who can't

"I've always believed in living to potential and not wasting talent and abilities. One day I came up with this quote to keep me motivated to keep going to grad school and earn my MBA from the U. of Georgia while working full time as an Air Force officer."

The cure for everything is salt water: sweat, tears or the sea

"To get rid of my frustrations, I work up a sweat. When I hurt, I shed tears. To get back to a sense of calm and reality. I either think of, or visit the ocean and all its strength and beauty. Therefore the "salt water" is my cure for living, and I realize where I came from and who made me."

Satisfaction begins when comparison end

"I sometimes have the habit of comparing my life to others. Whether it's that my friends went on a wonderful vacation, someone I know bought a new home or whatever. I need to learn to be happy with what I have. And to remember that I have a wonderful husband and two beautiful healthy boy."

Don't wait for the storm to pass -- learn to dance in the rain

"I think it's a wonderful way to live from day to day. Instead of being down about your situation and waiting for things to get better to be happy and enjoy life, know that God is in control and will take of today and tomorrow. So don't worry, dance and celebrate every day you have."

Don't keep all your happiness to yourself

"Share it with others. If you aren’t feeling very happy, let someone share their happiness with you. It's contagious!"

Life is the dancer, you are the dance!

"Love this quote! I got it our of "A New Earth: Awakening to your life's purpose." Guess I always looked at it sort of backwards before. The dancer by itself does nothing...it is what she does in movement that makes the dance come alive! We are all unique and it is our individual dances that make life intersting. If we all danced the same dance, think how boring life would be. Our seperate dances, all mixed together, make life magical."

Aim for the moon, that way, even if you miss you'll still be amongst the stars. -W. Clement Stone

"I have always loved that saying. I was a awkward child with low self-esteem and my mom used to tell me that all the time and it always made me give a little extra toward all that I did. So, now I tell my children that same motto. I hope that they will find the same encouragement and never hesitate to go for what they want."
