“_اذا كانت المهمة صعبة أو مزعجة أو بغيضة فقم بإنجازها على الفور , كلما طال انتظارك قبل ان تبدأ في العمل على اتمامها زادت صعوبتها و مشقتها .. مثل الوقوف على الحافة المرتفعة من حوض السباحة لأول مرة , كلما طالت فترة انتظارك قبل اتخاذ القرار بالقفز , قلت احتمالات قيامك بالقفزة.”
Zig Ziglar

“GROWING UP changes one’s definition of what is fun — maturation does that, thankfully — so I hate to admit now that as a boy I thoroughly enjoyed throwing rocks at cars. It was a thrill to wait in hiding, ambush the car driving by, and then make our escape. Occasionally, a driver would stop their vehicle and get out to yell at us. But if we were really fortunate, they would chase us. We would run just far enough ahead to encourage them, but when they got close, we would turn on the afterburners of youth, leaving them far behind while we laughed hysterically. Once in a while, the police would come by — usually in unmarked cars — and the chase would be much more dramatic until we reached the ten-foot-tall fences at the end of the neighborhood field. To the police, it must have appeared as if they had us trapped. They had no idea, however, how practiced we were at vaulting those fences. We treated it like an Olympic event, running at full speed toward the fence and then leaping high into the air, grabbing the chain links, and allowing the momentum of our feet to swing us over the top and down on the other side. We would laugh at the police as we ran off, knowing there was no way they would follow us. Today I have great admiration for the police, who risk their lives on a daily basis to protect our lives, freedom, and property.”
Ben Carson
