Ralph Marston

"Are you being forced to lower your expectations, or are you simply choosing the easy way out?
You must expect the best in order to achieve the best, yet it takes more than just expectation. It takes effort and commitment.
If you lower your expectations at the first sign of difficulty, it seriously erodes their value.
Don’t lower your expectations to meet your performance.
Raise your level of performance to meet your expectations.
Expect the best of yourself, and then do what is necessary to make it a reality."
