"No horse gets anywhere until he is harnessed. No stream or gas ever drives anything until it is confined. No Niagara (Falls) ever turned light and power until it is tunneled. No life ever grows great until it is focused, dedicated, disciplined. "

I really liked this quote, to me it means that to know where we are headed to sometimes we just need to follow our heart and trust that it will be the best choice. We need to be focused and put dedication into our goals to reach them and if we lose track of the path to listen to our heart, they lead us to the path of happiness. =)

Follow your heart. Ah, this always works, or at least I think it does. Doing what's right and feels right for you is the way to go. Sometimes happiness is closer then what we think.

If you really want to be someone in life or you want something you always have to work hard to get it. If you don't fight for what you want to accomplish you will never get it. When you work hard and follow your heart your dreams and aspirations will always come true. You have to always work got what you want and never give up. Once you give up it will be hard to achieve anything in life.

This is really true, nothing happens until someone does something about it. It is also better to add: "If you want a job done right you have to do it yourself." No one can do a better job about something important to you than yourself.

Your goals and missions, will conquer if you follow them. If you stick to them. If you decide what road your going to take. Taking the successful road gets you to where your goal is, if you keep up the good work you'll end up where you wanna be. Just follow your heart your heart knows best. Listen to it, follow it, and you'll be an Academic Champion. You'll be very successful in your future. Follow you heart:)

What i think this quote is trying to say is that you can't succeed in life with out having any goals. You need goals in order to focus on what you want to succeed at. You can't succeed or achieve anything if you don't know what you want to do. You have to set goals and focus, dedicate, and discipline your time and knowledge to it.

Be patient time will always tell. Don't rush and always try to follow your heart. Work hard and look forward into the positive future that awaits for you. Following your heart is really important because if you don't then what are you doing it for, you are working for satisfaction for you and your soul/heart. Your life will be dull and insignificant. Your future will not be what you wanted.

Everything that a person does is what they have chosen, because they have the power in their hands to do so. Many make mistakes by not following their hearts, but yet it's the wrong decision because that decision follows for the entire life. The things that must be done for your own best is and will always be in our hands and well all i can say is that we need to follow our hearts to accomplish those goals and reach high with no regrets. Always Choose the Right.!

this quote to me is saying that people and things don't progress by just laying there, they have to be motivated and pushed in order to make things happen. you must stay on task on what you want to achieve and it'd be best if you don't wait till someone forces you into doing what you have to do. you must push your self to the limit to accomplish things you desire. follow your heart with CTR.

I believe that if you follow your heart great things will happen.I think that once we limit ourselves to do certain things we make ourselves weak and don't conquer anything,but when we try our best and have a positive mind and seek our goal instead of waiting for it that makes us stronger and ready to obtain our mission .

We have to look for our own ways. We need to follow our hearts, but we can't get anywhere with us doing nothing. We have to work hard and put effort in our part so that we can go far and complete our goals. We need to keep persisting to do what's right for us and others. We need to take advantage of all the opportunities that come to us.

In order to be whom you want to be, in order to become successful, you have to put a lot of effort in what you love doing. You have to follow your heart. Go to the direction your heart desires. Its the best choice because its what gets you excited It will make you put more effort into it because you love doing it. If you choose to do something else and you are getting paid very well for doing it, would you do it? I wouldn't i would quit that job and find something that i love to do. Something that i know will at least keep me happy everyday for doing it and at the same time getting paid for doing it. I hope you choose what your heart desires to have happiness in your life. Pursue your dreams it is what your heart would want. CHOOSE THE RIGHT ------------------------>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I think everyone should follow there heart because even though sometimes you feel like your head has better thoughts than your heart, it won't always satisfy you. You will always want to do what your heart was telling you to do but you never listened. Success is in fact in our hands because it is up to us and no one else, to do what is right for OURSELVES no one is going to care whether we make it or not, we need to do it ourselves.

The quote is good because you really have to think about what it means. I am not 100% sure what it means but i think it's trying to say h]you have to work hard and be focused on one goal at a time. If you focus on to much, nothing will get done to it's fullest potential and everything will be scattered. On the other hand if you focus only on one thing, then it will be finished/accomplished and work smoothly.

What this is trying to say, or what i think it says (to me) is that nothing gets done unless someone does it. Nothing gets anywhere without help. Meaning, you won't get anywhere in life by just sitting or standing there doing nothing at all, you have to get up get moving and make things happen you can't just let things fall into place you have to make them fall, give a push into the right direction and be on your way. Nothing valuable ever comes at you free. For example, if you want to find gold, treasure, a rare objective, or discover something new, you can't just sit there and wait for it to come, NO, get up put the necessary gear on and go out to find your gold! Many blind minds look for the money, gold, silver, rare objects directly. The real gold is in school, Learning math, science, writing, a second or third language, participating in sports! All these things take you and give your life a much better opportunities, it's up to you to take and make it happen. Off school you can get a scholarship off sports, your high test scores can get you into a university. When all this happens you then graduate off college follow what you pursue and make the real gold after. You can then find a job that hands the gold over after you've worked for it! You work for your gold even when it's set in your name already.

You always have to know where you are going. If you want to conquer your the world or your world than your map will be your goals and desire. If you keep those goals close to heart than you will almost be unstoppable. If you dont have direction than you will be lost. So find that goal or goals so you can have the map towards you're success.

Without focused, dedication,and disciplined you will not be able to accomplish your dreams. It takes all these three things to be done the right way in order for you to accomplish what you set yourself to. YOU need to be FOCUSED, DEDICATE time towards your goal, and DISCIPLINED enough to be patient to reach it. Follow your heart where is wants to go and you will go as far as you possibly can.
