My great friend, Carl, gave me a little, blue card that had this written on it. I've kept it in my wallet ever since:
"Achievement is the result of making continuous efforts. The line between failure and success is so fine that we scarcely know when we pass it, so fine that we are often on the line and do not know it.
Many people throw up their hands at a time when a little more effort, a little more patience would achieve success. As the tide goes all the way out, so does it come all the way in. In business or in any other activity, sometimes prospects may seem darkest when they are really on the turn.
A little more persistence, a little more effort, and what may seem a hopeless failure may turn into a glorious success. There is no failure except no longer trying. There is no defeat except from within; no really insurmountable barrier - save our own inherent weakness of purpose."
Thanks Carl!
