In each of us are places where we have never gone. Only by pressing the limits do you ever find them. - Joyce Brothers

"Our family comes first" Strong families support each other's dreams; they sacrifice to show support. A friend turned down a company trip to the Bahamas so he could attend his son's championship soccer game. "the beach will always be there," he said, "but my son won't always be 14 and team captain." this "family first" attitude begins with a bond of loyalty between marital partners. But single-parent families (28% of all families with children, according to the latest census) can be just as successful in raising strong children if they develop a "family first" attitude.

A strong, positive self-image is the best possible preparation for success.

The person interested in success has to learn to view failure as a healthy, inevitable part of the process of getting to the top.
