Shooting tips of the Century...


The most committed win!

Yes...
you can!

Go ahead risk it, say hello!

There's always Today!

"If you think you can, or if you think you can't... you're right!"

Do it big, or stay in bed.

Be anchored to some ideal, philosophy or cause that keeps you too excited to sleep.

Practice being excited!

Have the guts to go!

More powerful than the will to win is the courage to begin

Do one thing after another, one at a time.

Never try to catch two frogs with one hand

When one must, one can!

Change your thoughts and you change your world.

Your friend is the man who knows all about you, and still likes you.

Shoot as if it is impossible to fail!

When things go wrong, don't go with them!

Forget tomorrow, today is the day!

Don't fear what you want.

He conquers who endures!

Big shots are only little shots who keep shooting!

The real sin is to persuade oneself that the second best is anything but second best.

Success seems to be largely a matter of hanging on after others have let go.

"To be what we are, and to become what we are capable of becoming, is the only end of life"
Robert Louis Stevenson

If you always do what you've always done, you'll always get what you always got!

Far better it is to dare mighty things, even though checkered by failure, than to live in that gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat...”
Teddy Roosevelt

Gun control is not about guns; 
it's about control!

Press on!
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 alone will not: the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent!

Hit just one more target, why not!

The squeaky wheel doesn't always get greased, it often gets replaced.

From self alone expect applause.

Some Brain food:
We are what we repeatedly do.
Excellence then is not an act, but a habit...
Aristotle
