Last night in my reading I found this quote:
Confidence is the Napoleon in the mental army. It doubles and triples the power of all of the other faculties. The whole mental army waits until confidence leads the way. Even the horse cannot win the prize after it has once lost confidence in itself. Courage, born of self confidence, is the prod which brings out the last ounces of reserve force. The reason why so many men fail is because they do not commit themselves with a determination to win at any cost. They do not have that superb confidence in themselves which never looks back; which burns all the bridges behind it. There is just uncertainty enough as to whether they will succeed to take the edge off their effort, and it is just this little difference between doing pretty well and flinging all oneself, all his power, into his career that makes the difference between mediocrity and a grand achievement. -OSM
WOW. Something to think about.
