Persistence is a boring but necessary virtue. You might not think anything is changing in your career life or love life, but if you are persistent you will eventually see change. Remember! True failure only happens when you abandon your quest. Keep on questing!

Living in the past is like driving forward while staring in the rear view mirror.     Believing is seeing.     Be an over-fright success story.     One's actions convince louder than one's words.     Make progress. Make new mistakes.     All work and no play makes Jill want to reach for the Prozac.     The purpose of your life is to find the purpose of your life. It doesn't matter how fast you get there if you're heading in the wrong direction.     If at first you don't succeed, you're doing something stupid.     You're nobody until somebody hates you.     Behind every successful woman is someone who pissed her off.     To get where you need to go you must first see who you really are.     Be a warrior, not a worrier.     Be a winner, not a whiner.     If the coyote had stopped to catch his breath, he might have caught the roadrunner.     A pack of puppies led by a pitbull will always be feared more than a pack of pitbulls led by a puppy.     Brainpower is as important as horsepower. Read, read, read!     You should always pick a job for its passion value not cash-in value.     Don't let a blame preoccupation ruin your occupation.     It's always better to go for longterm greed over short term greed.     A shortcut is often the longest distance between two points.     Time is money...and time wasters are money wasters.     Don't wait to make heaps and heaps of cash to have heaps and heaps of fun.     Every member of the Fortune 500 Club could also be a member of the Misfortune 500 Club.     Money doesn't bring you true happiness...but happiness can bring you true money. If you love what you do, the money will come.     Whatever business you're in you're in the people business.     Fail Faster. Succeed faster.     Behind every successful woman is someone who pissed her off.     Follow the fuscia brick road.   Failure is in many ways like "fullure" - it is always full of lessons to be learned.     Believe in a laughter life.     Don't let your convictions become your restrictions.     Invest in "Fresh Air Fun." Take a walk outside once a day.     If you want your body to be smoking, you've got to stop smoking.     Sometimes, all you gotta do is ask. Duh.     Taking no action is an action. Duh.     Happiness is not about what happens to you -- but about how you choose to respond to what happens.     Comedy = tragedy + 3 months and/or 3 margaritas!     Practice that tongue twister "NO" today.     Take the fat out of your fate. Slim down your schedule to what matters.     It's not just what you know...but what you do with what you know.     The grass is greener on the other side - until you get there and see it's astroturf.     When you grow - you often outgrow.     The only constant is change.     You are a human being, not a human was or a human will be.     Self honesty is the only path to happiness.     Sometimes we're "mad at" someone whom we should merely be "sad at."     Be so proactive you're preactive.     Fast doesn't always last.     Love is a boomerang. What have you and give away is what you get back.     Fear of commitment: it could happen to you...or someone you can't love.     Saying difficult things now is better than fixing even more difficult problems later.     It is better to have loved and lost - than to live with a psycho for the rest of your life.     It is better to have loved and lost - and had some really amazing hot sex - than never to have lived and loved at all.     A man is not a project. A man is a man. And a project is a project.     It's better to have a short bad relationship than a long bad relationship.     It's worth it to hold out for a soul mate and not settle for a cellmate.     Assess breeds success.     Turn all bad experiences into good inperiences - take them in fully, and change in a positive way.

EXPERTS IN LOVE

It’s funny how life works. Principles of flow, happiness and success in one area, often aptly apply in other areas as well. In other words, somebody who’s an expert in their career might have -- unbenowest to them – developed Expert Zen Wisdom that if followed would bring you great joy in your love life. Consider the following advice of the following experts and...

THINK LIKE A STOCKBROKER:
Don’t wait for things to totally plummet to get out of something that you know in your heart is not working. Trust your instincts when you sense things rapidly losing their value. The sooner you get out, the lesser the damage, and the sooner you’ll have the chance (and the wherewithall) to re-invest in something that offers more gain.

THINK LIKE A BASEBALL PLAYER:
You have to be willing to hit a lot of strikes if you want to hit homeruns.

THINK LIKE AN ARCHITECT:
You have to make sure you first focus on building a sturdy foundation, one that will last, even through earthquakes and other unexpected acts of God, as they say in the business. Always make sure your foundation is a much more important priority than the exterior.

THINK LIKE A MARKETER:
Don’t try to sell kiwis to a shoestore. Don’t try to buy kiwis in a shoestore. Some people don’t want what you have to offer. Some people don’t have what you need.

THINK LIKE A GARDENER:
You must accept that some plants are only meant to live a certain time, a certain season. If you try to make them live longer, you will be a bad gardener.

THINK LIKE A LAWYER:
Lawyers know that the one who wants the negotiation to succeed the most has the least amount of power in the negotiations.

THINK LIKE A DOGTRAINER:
Dogtrainers warn about a little something called FLIGHT AND CHASE BEHAVIOR. If your dog is running away from you, the worst thing in the world is to run after it. The dog will only run away faster. Instead you must remain calm. The animal can sense the fear and anxiety in you. Act like you’re having lots of fun. The animal just wants be where the fun is.

THINK LIKE AN ENTREPRENEUR:
In a competitive market, you must always be different in some way. And if you cannot be different, you need to be the same but better. The good news: the general rule is that your product/services only need to be as little as 20% better in order to successfully beat out the competition. The even better news: Sometimes great packaging can compensate/distract – and you can indeed get away with not being different or better at all!

THINK LIKE A RACECAR DRIVER:
Racecar drivers know that you never look at the thing you don’t want to squoosh your racecar into – because wherever you’re looking is exactly where your racecar aims itself. So, if all you’re looking at are all the dangers and bad things that you could smack into, then those dangers and bad things will be exactly what you smack into.
