Great men should think of opportunity and not of time. That is the excuse of feeble and puzzled spirits.
To secure the ground we gain, and gain what more we can, is, I think, the wisest course
Opportunities come infrequently. When it rains gold, put out the bucket, not the thimble.
We were all just taught to work as hard as we could, use these opportunities to advance, and just really appreciate all that we had.
Results are obtained by exploiting opportunities, not by solving problems.
Work hard, not in grunt work, but in chasing such opportunities and maximizing exposure to them. This makes living in big cities invaluable because you increase the odds of serendipitous encounters-you gain exposure to the envelope of serendipity.
Don't just live the length of your life - live the width of it as well.
In great affairs we ought to apply ourselves less to creating chances than to profiting from those that offer.
Time is like a ship which never anchors; while I am on board, I had better do those things that may profit me at my landing, than practice such as shall cause my commitment when I come ashore.
We're all conditioned to work hard, and it's not just an Asian thing: it's an Asian American thing. You maximize the little opportunity you have, and I've made a career.
As we look into the future, it's as far as we can see. So let's make each tomorrow be the best that it can be.
At times, I didn't play, but I was still the best - that's how I saw it. If I get 15, 20 minutes, I will do what I have to do and make an impact.
If you want to be successful, you have to be willing to use every connection you’ve got.
I haven't got years and years left so I want to compete against the best.
Life is what the least of us make the most of us feel the least of us make the most of.
I made up my mind long ago that life was too short to do anything for myself that I could pay others to do for me.
The thing I would hate myself for the most or regret the most is if I did not push myself to maximize my potential and my abilities.
I want to get to the end and feel that I've done all I could, given the limitations and given the opportunities.
Well, some people create their own opportunities; others go where opportunities are the greatest; others fail to recognize opportunity when they are face to face with it.
I used to be a person who just peaked for the big events, not doing too many competitions, but now you've got to go round chasing all the points because if you're not taking them, someone else is.
Anyone who does not know how to make the most of his luck has no right to complain if it passes by him.
Leaders keep their eyes on the horizon, not just on the bottom line.
I don't see myself being in the sport a very long period of time, so I want to fight as much as possible.
Even when I'm having fun, I'm constantly thinking of ways to incorporate it into my WWE persona, as that way I'm serving two purposes at once.
Opportunity never knocks. It hangs thick in the air all around you. You breathe it unthinking, and dissipate it with your sighs.
