I have three...
#1
"I expect only the best to happen....and it does!"
This saying is printed and stuck to the dashboard of all cars.
#2
"If it's for ya, it won't go by ya."
Dear college roommate helped me out with that one MANY years ago when I was struggling with a boyfriend.
#3
The only place that SUCCESS comes before WORK...is in the dictionary.

Salutation To The Dawn
Look to this day!
For it is life, the very life of life.
In its brief course
Lie all the verities and realities of your existence:
The bliss of growth,
The glory of action,
The splendor of achievement,
For yesterday is but a dream
And tomorrow is just a vision,
And today well lived makes every yesterday a dream of happiness
And every tomorrow a vision of hope.
Look well, therefore to this day!
Such is the salutation to the dawn.
Kalidasa
Not a saying but a very old poem and it is my mantra!!

Here's another one.....
I have printed on a wooden board above the area where my children do their homework...UGA TAH WAA NAH
Translation: (You Gotta Want to--succed or become a success. No one can do it for you). This was given to them by a middle school counselor.. Seems like every child who comes in my door always asks about this sign.
