“Lack of confidence, sometimes alternating with unrealistic dreams of heroic success, often leads to procrastination, and many studies suggest that procrastinators are self-handicappers: rather than risk failure, they prefer to create conditions that make success impossible, a reflex that of course creates a vicious cycle.”

“learn the art of patience. Apply discipline to your thoughts when they become anxious over the outcome of a goal. Impatience breeds anxiety, fear, discouragement and failure. Patience creates confidence, deciseeness, and a rational outlook, which eventually leads to success.”

“...much of the discovery of the world was based on failure rather than on success--on tactical errors and pipe dreams.”

“The essence of successful discipline is not technique; rather, it is self-confidence.”

“I realized that success is not a one-time act or a moment of luck and that "Overnight Success" is never true. Success is created through and by creating a habit caused by proper self-discipline.”

“We realized that life, even the worst of life, consists of an alternation of joys and sorrow, successes and failure more than the successes.”
