SAFE TRAVELS TO ALL THOSE GOING TO KELOWNA SHOW
AND BEST OF LUCK TO ALL THE COMPETITORS
All our dreams can come true,
if we have the courage to pursue them.
Dreams pass into the reality of action.
From the actions stems the dream again;
and this interdependence produces the highest form of living.

and quitters never win.”

people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.”

“Successful people aren't born that way.
They become successful by
establishing the habit of doing things unsuccessful people don't like to do.
The successful people don't always like these things themselves;
they just get on and do them.”

Don't Quit
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest, if you must, but don't you quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don't give up though the pace seems slow--
You may succeed with another blow.
Often the goal is nearer than,
It seems to a faint and faltering man,
Often the struggler has given up,
When he might have captured the victor's cup,
And he learned too late when the night slipped down,
How close he was to the golden crown.
Success is failure turned inside out--
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far,
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit--
It's when things seem worst that you must not quit.

never holding in your mind the memory of any unpleasant thing that has passed.”
“It isn’t what you have,
or who you are,
or where you are,
or what you are doing

It is what you think about.”

Be more concerned with your character than your reputation,
because your character is what you really are,
while your reputation is merely what others think you are.

I believe that if you don't derive a deep sense of purpose from what you do,
if you don't come radiantly alive several times a day,
if you don't feel deeply grateful at the tremendous good fortune that has been bestowed on you,
then you are wasting your life.
And life is too short to waste

It’s easy to forget what an amazing gift life really is.
Our lives are nothing but a cosmic blink.
Even our seemingly all-encompassing world is
just tiny blue dot circling an average sized star spiraling around
a galaxy of 200-400 billion stars,
which itself is just one galaxy among billions more.
Yet for one brief moment,
we get to experience the wonders of existence,
of consciousness.
DON'T WASTE IT.

Make that one idea your life

Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body,

The rung of a ladder was never meant to rest upon,

Everything in this world is created twice:
First – creation in your mind,
followed by the manifestation in reality.
Without the mental creation,
there will be no physical creation.
When you set a goal, you already accomplish the first creation.
You have set into motion a decree for yourself
and the forces of your universe to materialize the goal in the physical reality.

Dream no small dreams
for they have no power to move the hearts of men.
If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams,

if we have the courage to pursue them.

There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.
Successful people maintain a positive focus in life no matter what is going on around them.
They stay focused on their past successes rather than their past failures,
and on the next action steps they need to take to get them closer to the fulfillment of their goals
rather than all the other distractions that life presents to them.

A happy person is not a person in a certain set of circumstances,
but rather a person with a certain set of attitudes.

Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life.
Don’t be trapped by dogma
which is living with the results of other people’s thinking.
Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice.
And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.
They somehow already know what you truly want to become.
Everything else is secondary.

Optimism is essential to achievement and it is also the foundation of courage and true progress.
Many of the qualities that come so effortlessly to dogs
- loyalty, devotion, selflessness, unflagging optimism, unqualified love
- can be elusive to humans.
The essence of optimism is that it takes no account of the present,
but it is a source of inspiration,
of vitality and hope where others have resigned;
it enables a man to hold his head high,
to claim the future for himself and not to abandon it to his enemy.

“What you focus on expands.
So focus on what you want,
not what you do not want.”
What you focus on expands,
and when you focus on the goodness in your life,
you create more of it.

even money flowed my way
when I learned to be grateful no matter what happened in my life.

If you let your fear of failure stop you from trying,
you’ll miss out on far more than had you just failed in the first place.
The greatest mistake you can make in life is to continually be afraid you will make one.
The more you try, the better you get.
So instead of worrying,
just get started
and you’ll eventually figure things out.
The more we do,
the more we can do.
Big shots are only little shots who keep shooting.

“Delaying gratification is a process of
scheduling the pain and pleasure of life in such a way
as to enhance the pleasure of life in such a way
as to enhance the pleasure by meeting and experiencing the pain first and getting it over with.
It is the only decent way to live.”

The secret of health for both mind and body is
not to mourn for the past,
not to worry about the future,
or not to anticipate troubles,

not for another hour,
but this hour.”
Life is available only in the present moment.

Always Do Your Best.
Your best is going to change from moment to moment;
it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick.
Under any circumstance,
simply do your best,
and you will avoid self-judgment,
self-abuse and regret.
If you try to do your best there is no failure.

Be happy.
Be yourself.
If others don’t like it, then let them be.
Happiness is a choice.
Life isn’t about pleasing everybody.
Happiness is not determined by what’s happening around you,
but rather what’s happening inside you.
Most people depend on others to gain happiness,
but the truth is,
it always comes from within.
If you don’t like something, change it.
If you can’t change it,
change the way you think about it.
You can’t start the next chapter of your life if you keep re-reading your last one.

“People tend to be generous when sharing their nonsense, fear, and ignorance.
And while they seem quite eager to feed you their negativity,
please remember that sometimes the diet we need to be on is a spiritual and emotional one.
Be cautious with what you feed your mind and soul.
Fuel yourself with positivity and let that fuel propel you into positive action.”
