We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence is therefore not an act, but a habit. – Aristotle

By not doing your best you are not just wasting your time, you are wasting yourself. – Vadim Kotelnikov

You earn reputation by learning to do hard things well. – Jeff Bezos

Everyone has got it in him, if he’ll only make up his mind and stick at it. None of us is born with a stop-valve on his powers or with a set limit to his capacity. It is in each of us. – Charles Schwab
