“The one quality which sets one man apart from another- the key which lifts one to every aspiration while others are caught up in the mire of mediocrity- is not talent, formal education, nor intellectual brightness - it is self-discipline. With self-discipline all things are possible. Without it, even the simplest goal can seem like the impossible dream.” MenSelfDreamSeemsGoalQualityImpossibleTalentKeysDisciplineIntellectualAll ThingsCaughtLiftsAspirationOne ManMediocrityFormalSelf DisciplineCaught UpSimplestBrightnessFormal EducationImpossible Dream Author:Theodore Roosevelt

“My dad noticed some kind of talent on piano when he asked me to play a couple random songs on piano when I was 6 and I just did it. I attempted lessons but I was just so bad at reading notes. I would read "Three Blind Mice" by ear, so learning notes was almost impossible.” KindPlaySongThreeReadingImpossibleTalentCoupleDadLessonsEarsBlindNotesMy DadPianoMice Author:Christina Grimmie
“I felt like a fake the whole time and it made me very, very nervous - which is why I have such great respect for actors, because I can't do what they do. I really can't do it. I'm always uncomfortable. And I'm just grateful that I recognized that this uncomfortable-ness was a sign that I shouldn't be doing it. More than not having any talent - which is clearly obvious - more than not having any talent, it was so uncomfortable and I was so insecure. And I was so frightened. And the thought of being somebody other than myself was impossible for me.” MadeI CanWholeActorsFeltImpossibleTalentGratefulObviousNervousUncomfortableFakeFrightenedInsecureBecause I CanGreat Respect Author:Sherry Lansing
