“Success does not consist in never making mistakes but in never making the same one a second time.” – George Bernard Shaw

“You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.” – C.S. Lewis
Don’t use your age as an excuse for taking it easy. No matter how young or old you are, you can set new goals and dream up new dreams. There is never an age that is too young or old where a dream is too big or too small.

“Whether you think you can or you think you can’t, you’re right.” –Henry Ford
How you feel and what you think about yourself has a huge impact on the likelihood you’ll succeed. You’re most likely to believe yourself.
