“The secret that leads to many goals is tenacity”
Fortune Cookie Wisdom as refined from a quote from Louis Pasteur
This statement resonates deeply within me and struck me in a rather profound way when I found it in a fortune cookie one day several years back. I have saved it, and kept it on my desk at work as a reminder of how far I have come and how far I have to go in achieving my life goals. The only thing that can stop me from realizing these goals is if I give up. Giving up, for me, is not an option. It is with this belief, that I pursue my graduate degree in Organizational Performance and Workplace Learning as a full time employee wanting to make a deeper and more meaningful impact in my chosen field of insurance. Through my studies,
In the book called, “Oh the Places You’ll Go!” Written by Dr. Suess; the message he is trying to explain is that we have to make it our day to shine, you might not find a path right away that you're supposed to go on, but you will make your own special path that's fit just for you. However, there's going to be bumps in that path; people will leave you when they see you struggle. Sometimes, you will not want to get back up again.You will be frustrated and you’ll be in dark places that you won't ever want to be in, but, you have to keep pushing forward. You must push forward in order to get out. In the end it all works out, everything happens for a reason and it's your time to go move mountains, inspire others, inspire the world!
“When someone else says you’ve failed, what they really mean is “If that were me, I would feel Palmeri, Andrew like a failure.”” (Grover 181). This quote made me want to add something into my philosophy and that is to not let peoples’ criticisms hinder you if you truly want to complete a vision of yours.

This quote confirms to the readers that the reasons why choosing the beneficial choices are vital. Whether you make a choice to a difficult path or a tranquil path in a life, the desired choice is the finest thing you need in life. The choice can be justifying foolish beliefs, making bad decisions, or performing hurtful acts, but we will all learn from our mistakes and prevent them from happening again in the future.

If you don't follow the steps to reaching your goals, then you will never achieve them. Where would you be in life if you don't achieve your goals?
"All you need in this life is ignorance and confidence, and then success is sure" (Twain). This quote means that in order to succeed, you must face failure. Although others may say something cannot be done, being ignorant can cause you to try to achieve things no one else would dare to explore. Examples of this quote are shown on a daily basis. If you refuse to accept the fact that something is impossible, you will find the perseverance and dedication to make the idea possible.
One can take this and think that if you are committed and strive to succeed, then all that will lead to is failure rather than
That quote meant a lot to me because the way I see interpret this quote, it means to go for the risks in life because they could end up paying off big time, and if you don’t take the necessary risks in life you would have accomplished nothing.

This is very meaningful to me because the way interpret it, it means to get the most done you can, and don’t fall behind and let the days go
A great man once said “If you can't fly then run, if you can't run then walk, if you can't walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward.” That man is none other than Martin Luther King Jr. Ever since I could remember his words has been the center around how I live my life. Martin Luther King’s quote best describes me because I am individual who looks towards the future. I do not waiver in the face of adversary nor do I allow myself to give in to it. I know that life is full of struggles and overcoming those struggles is a major part of living. Doing whatever it takes to keep moving forward is what I'm good at. I believe by being persistent towards my goals I will eventually achieve them. I have always stood behind this
Willa Cather once said, “The end is nothing; the road is all.” It’s not about the destination it’s about the journey. The lessons you learn as you go along are what make you. Whether or not you reached your goal means nothing more than a certificate or a pat on the back.
I agree with this quote why because it has a real true meaning behind it. Why I feel this way is because i've had a lot of moments connecting to this quote. One personal experience I have is that I was in a business class and we were investing in a company and I had $10,000 and I took risk and invested into a company and I thought I would lose everything but I didn't and I gained a lot so I took a big risk and I accomplished my goal for getting my profits up. Another Personal experience I have is that one day I was playing basketball and I stole the ball and the score was tied up and I ran and shot a 3 instead of a 2 and I risked my shot but I made the shot and I accomplished my goal when I took that risk either tho I could have missed the
ncredibly true those words are. You buy a box of chocolates accepting the fact that it is not guaranteed you are to get all the flavors you like. You play a game of chess keeping in mind that the pieces you move now may not be present in the aftermath. You take risks and steer your ship according to what you want, knowing that there are odds of losing, and you make sure that you are armored up and prepared for the obstacles you might face and the probability of failure. In order to be successful in life, we must take action for ourselves, prepare for the challenges that confront us, and cope with the inevitable change thrust towards us.

Motivation and perseverance is difficult to obtain and hold on to with negative outlooks from non-supportive people. Individuals need to have their own positive outlooks on their dreams and believe in themselves before they believe others thoughts on the goal. Age and outlook on the goal can also change the perspective of the world
Success can be met in a variety of contrast ways, but it is most important when it comes to learning about failure. Winston Churchill once said," Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that
