It’s one thing when others stand in our way.

It’s something quite different when we are the ones standing in our own way.

Excuses are useless.

No one believes them anyway.

It’s never right to sell yourself short or bet against your chances to succeed.

Self-doubt is self-sabotage.

Finding excuses for not taking chances is an easy way to never begin.

People who are not afraid to fail never make excuses.  They’re busy figuring out how to try again.

Others may doubt you, but you must never doubt yourself.

To do so is to prevent success and guarantee unhappiness.

The best way to ban excuses from your life is to make a commitment to an even higher standard than anyone expects of you.
