    A little bit
    Making a little bit of progress is much better than making no progress at all. Even though the going may be slow, keep going.
    Moving slowly toward your goal is much better than not moving at all. Do what you can, when you can, with what you have.

    Time will work in your favor when you use that time for positive purpose. Over time, even the small efforts bring big results.

    If you waste your time wishing you could do more, you end up doing less. Cheerfully use your time as it comes to do the best you can.

    Even when you're not able to take a major step forward, you can always take a small step forward. Keep taking those small steps, and the opportunity to take that big step will surely come.

    A little bit here and a little bit there will soon add up to a lot of progress. Even when you can't do much, you can always keep yourself actively headed in a positive direction.

    Unfair
    You won't become successful by complaining that life is unfair. Certainly there are many injustices in the world, yet you won't get anywhere by using those injustices as excuses.
    Your best response is to work over, under, around and through them. Accept the fact that life is unfair, and choose to experience outstanding success anyway.

    It is admirable to fight against injustice. But fighting against injustice may very well make that injustice even stronger.

    A better way to end injustice is to make it irrelevant. When you create ways for yourself and others to succeed in spite of unfair circumstances, then you render those circumstances powerless.

    The world is filled with inequity and unfairness. And yet, there are always plenty of workable and creative ways to rise above those negative circumstances.

    When something in life is unfair, choose to succeed anyway. And make that unfairness so small and insignificant it won't even matter.

    Your sincere best
    If reality isn't working for you, change it. If there are limitations that hold you back, transcend them.
    Reality is what you make of it. Life is the way you choose to live it.

    Gently accept the way things are. And then put the energy of your focus on exactly how you would like for things to be.

    Everything in your world happens for a reason. Get yourself some good, meaningful, compelling reasons and use them to drive events forward.

    You don't have to settle for anything less than the absolute best for yourself and your world. For you can act in every moment with the positive, purposeful energy of your own unique life.

    Give your sincere best in every moment, at every opportunity. And make the reality of life as outstandingly beautiful as you know it can be.

    Into action
    When you don't feel like doing what you know you must, that's the best time to go ahead and do it anyway. That's when you can break through your old habit patterns to a new level of focus, performance and achievement.
    That first step will require you to go against your natural tendency to put it off until later and to stay comfortably where you are. So how do you get beyond that?

    Use your power of visualization to do two things. First, use your thoughts to make it even more uncomfortable, even more painful for you not to take action.

    Next, visualize in great detail all the positive and desirable rewards you'll create by going ahead and getting it done. In your mind, make it so compelling to take action that you cannot avoid doing so.

    Many times in the past, you've successfully avoided action by telling yourself why you can't or why you won't. Now, choose to use that same power to tell yourself why you can and why you will.

    You control the awesome power of your thoughts. And with your thoughts you can successfully visualize yourself into action every time.

    -- Ralph Marston
