And that’s what happens to most people actually. If you really look at the ones that ended up, you know, being “successful” in the eyes of society and the ones that didn’t, often times, it’s the ones that are successful love what they did so they could persevere. You know, when it got really tough. And the ones that didn’t love it quit. – Steve Jobs

One person’s in charge of iPhone OS software, one person is in charge of Mac hardware, one person is in charge of iPhone hardware engineering, another person is in charge of worldwide marketing, another person is in charge of operations. It’s organized like a start-up. We’re the biggest start-up on the planet. – Steve Jobs

•       Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do. – Steve Jobs

•       Ad campaigns are necessary for competition; IBM’s ads are everywhere. But good PR educates people; that’s all it is. You can’t con people in this business. The products speak for themselves. – Steve Jobs

Because if they fall in love with Apple, everything else will take care of itself. They’ll want to do what’s best for Apple, not what’s best for them, what’s best for Steve, or anybody else. – Steve Jobs

§  "Peace begins with a smile."  - Mother Teresa

§  "Nothing is more honorable than a grateful heart."

§  But I've learned that God's ways are better than our ways.  - Joel Osteen

§  You weren't created to be average. You were created to excel. You have a destiny to fulfil, an assignment to accomplish.

§  You control the doorway to what you allow in. You can dwell on every negative thought and every derogatory comment, or you can choose to delete it and dwell on what God says about you.  - Joel Osteen

§  To live your best life now, you must learn to trust God's timing ... God is arranging all the pieces to come together to work out His plan for your life.

§  The more you talk about negative things in your life, the more you call them in. Speak victory not defeat. 

 

 

 

§  Start calling yourself healed, happy, whole, blessed, and prosperous. Stop talking to God about how big your mountains are, and start talking to your mountains about how big your God is!  - Joel Osteen

§  When you're really believing, when you're in peace, you're showing God by your actions that you trust Him.  - Joel Osteen

§  Don't waste your energy trying to convince people to understand you. Your time is too valuable to try to prove yourself to people.

§  Don't just accept whatever comes your way in life. You were born to win; you were born for greatness; you were created to be a champion in life.  - Joel Osteen

§  God will always bring the right people into your life, but you have to let the wrong people walk away.

§  Successful people don't waste their time looking at what others are doing, they're too busy focusing on their own goals.

§  The good news is that people don't determine your destiny; God does.

·      There is a grievous evil which I [Solomon] have seen . . . riches were lost through a bad investment . . . (Ecclesiastes 5:13-14). -  Avoid Those Risky Investments.

·      There is another problem I have seen everywhere – savings are put into risky investments that turn sour, and soon there is nothing left to pass on to one’s son. The man who speculates is soon back to where he began – with nothing. This, as I have said, is a serious problem, for all his hard work has been for nothing; he has been working for the wind. It is all swept away (Ecclesiastes 5:13-16, TLB)

·      An inheritance obtained too early in life is not a blessing in the end - Proverbs 20:21

·      “For even when we were with you, we used to give you this order: if anyone is not willing to work, then he is not to eat, either.  For we hear that some among you are leading an undisciplined life, doing no work at all, but acting like busybodies.  Now such persons we command and exhort in the Lord Jesus Christ to work in quiet fashion and eat their own bread.” - Those who are able to work should do everything that they can to be able to find work. -  2 Thessalonians 3:10-12

·      Psalm 50:10 says, “For every beast of the forest is Mine, The cattle on a thousand hills.”  All money, all wealth, all things, and all resources belong to God.  He is the owner because He is the Creator.  We must never confuse earthly ownership with Who is ultimately on the throne of all.

·      A little extra sleep, a little more slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest—then poverty will pounce on you like a bandit; scarcity will attack you like an armed robber - Proverbs 6:10, 11
