- Edward Young
What to do with this famous saying...
Realize first that procrastination is the enemy or all things great like:
Saying:
Procrastination is the fear of success. People procrastinate because they are afraid of the success that they know will result if they move ahead now. Because success is heavy, carries a responsibility with it, it is much easier to procrastinate and live on the “someday I’ll” philosophy.
- Denis Waitley
What to do with this famous saying:
Don't procrastinate. Take the challenge to conquer another fear, face it and be a success!

Saying:
Most people give up just when they're about to achieve success. They quit on the one yard line. They give up at the last minute of the game, one foot from a winning touchdown.
- H. Ross Perot
What to do with this famous saying
Don't lose heart. Just after you quit, you might have succeeded. Why quit? Keep going, find out what happens next, and hopefully you win! Stay motivated! Oh, don't take this advice if you're gambling though. Odds are you'll only continue to lose and spiral downward.

Famous Saying:
Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.
- Calvin Coolidge
What to do with this famous saying:
Persistence rules. People with less talent and less intelligence yet just keep going and persist, win. That's just the way it is.
Why let some less intelligent, less talented person win just because they persist more than you do? Keep going and have all 3...intelligence, talent and persistence. That's the true winning combination or success formula in life, in whatever you do.

Famous Saying:
By gnawing through a dike, even a rat may drown a nation.
- Edmund Burke
What to do with this famous saying:
Wow, actually this sounds tragic (a rat and a city drowning and all), but the point is clear. Small things can make a big difference, one step at a time. So keep at it, you'll be glad you did and before you know it, will make huge strides as things happen exponentially like never before! You'd never know this nor enjoy the rewards of this lesson if you quit now. Stick it out, stay with it, keep going.

Saying:
Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.
- Thomas A. Edison
What to do with this famous saying:
First be inspired and motivated based on who gave this bit of advice, someone who tried over a thousand times to make something work and then tried some more and was successful.
We can learn the lesson here that when we know something will work, but not when, that we should be smart and not give up the when for the sake of the what. Don't throw away a certain success just because you lost patience or because time is toying with you about a certainty that causes you to doubt and despair.
Patience and persistence are huge parts of success that many 2 hour movies, such as my favorite The Pursuit of Happiness (with Will Smith) portrays but people fail to grasp since in 2 hours the movie wraps up with a successful ending. Success takes longer than 2 hours, and longer than a 2 hour movie, no matter how good the move can ever portray in a rags to riches story.
If you're not so certain about your efforts and persistence fails, then re-motivate. Also, if you must, seek advice, re-evaluate and look at the statistical odds of success and your willingness to beat them, as well as whether or not it's impossible, whether you may have missed something key or need to change something small or big, to make the difference.
Realize talking to others may bring something to light we might not be able to see ourselves. Like the song by the Eagles says, "All our lives we live in chains and never even know we hold the key."
If you are not moving forward but instead backward, then again follow this advice above. If the odds are in your favor, stay with it. If not, try something where the odds are in your favor. Hang in there!

Saying:
Small opportunities are often the beginning of great enterprises.
- Demosthenes
What to do with this famous saying:
Realize what seems small now may be larger than large one day, so keep on going! Don't quit too soon. Things could catch on like wildfire with your enterprise, business idea or endeavor. Starbucks is a great example of this. Now go there, have some coffee, think about this, get motivated, plan, and go create!
