Determination …

There are two things

To aim at in life …

First, to get what you want;

And, after that, to enjoy it.  

Only the wisest of mankind

Achieve the second.
- Logan Pearsall Smith

Attitude …

In the long run, men hit only

What they aim at.  
Therefore, though they should

Fail immediately, they had better

Aim at something high.
- Henry David Thoreau

Happiness …

It is the paradox of life

That the way to miss
pleasure is to seek it first.

The very first condition of
lasting happiness is that a

Life should be full of purpose,

Aiming at something outside self.
- Hugh Black
