Often the biggest obstacle in meeting life’s challenges is actually our own fear of failure.
If you lose today, win tomorrow. In this never-ending spirit of challenge is found the heart of a victor.
People who cease to grow can't inspire others. Leadership begins with challenging oneself.
If you summon your courage to challenge something, you’ll never be left with regret. How sad it is to spend your life wishing, “If only I’d had a little more courage.” Whatever the outcome may be, the important thing is to step forward on the path that you believe is right.
Patience is, in and of itself, a great challenge and it often holds the key to breaking through a seeming impasse.
The challenge of preventing any further proliferation of nuclear weapons is just such a trial in the quest for world peace, one that cannot be achieved if we are defeated by a sense of helplessness. The crucial element is to ensure that any struggle against evil is rooted firmly in a consciousness of the unity of the human family, something only gained through the mastery of our own inner contradictions.
When we have a genuine sense that, no matter how difficult our present circumstances, we are not alone-that we are vitally connected with others and with the world-we will, without fail, rise up to the challenge of living again.
