    Default Helpful Quotes

    You may be disappointed if you fail, but you are doomed if you don't try. - Beverly Sills

    At least "try" and give it your best. Drumming is difficult at times but don't sit around wishing that you could play like this person or that person. You "can" in fact do it, just like them. Simply give it your best shot... then, if you fail, you may have some disappointment, but you go on to try again. If you don't try at all, you are doomed from the start.

    Happiness depends more on the inward disposition of mind than on outward circumstances. - Benjamin Franklin

    We often search for happiness in things, money, jobs, events or other people. What we fail to realize is that happiness starts from within. You must love yourself first and foremost. Strive to be at peace within yourself and you will in turn find happiness.

    "Try not to become a man of success but a man of value." - Albert Einstein

    It is not as important that we be great drummers as it is to be good human beings. We should not walk on others to get where we're going. We need to grasp ethics and values and stand for something in this world. We need to treat each other with kindness. Treat each other as we ourselves wish to be treated.

    "Don't get upset with people or situations. They are powerless without your reactions." - Author Unknown

    We often react with great emotion to situations that are in fact under our control. Did the guitar player give you a dirty look? Did you get angry? Why? You had the choice to completely ignore it. That instantly renders him powerless over you.

    "Wealth is not in making money, but in making the man while he is making money." - Author Unknown

    Just think of all the things that are learned in the course of making a living. All of our wealth can be taken away, but the lessons learned will be with us, and will have shaped us forever.

    There is no need for each of us to change the world to make it a better place. Instead, each of us can seek to make our part of the world a better place, and through our combined efforts the whole world will become better.
