Howard began Success Thoughts back in 2001 with self-inspired quotes that helped him through a very tumultuous time in his life. Working a corporate job, he began to write them on a white board in the conference room on the floor he worked on. Realizing these words were more than just quotes, he began to apply graphics to the quotes, creating more of a visual experience of the quotes he was writing. Soon afterward, the graphics turned into a newsletter that quickly gained attention and accolades from local peers. But realizing the magnitude to which it began to grow, and not having a plan in place to manage the vision, everything was placed on hold with hopes to bring the vision back to life later down the road.

In 2009, with the popularity of social media growing like wildfire, Howard was led to start up Success Thoughts again, only this time it would incorporate quotes and blogs that he had written. He started out on one social network and eventually moved it over to Facebook. He also incorporated the usage of Twitter to disseminate the Quotes, garnering a presence with over 7,000 followers between the two.

Howard has a passion for helping others realize that success and greatness begins in themselves first, starting mainly in the mind. His heartfelt regard for people motivates him to instill that mentality in the mind of every person he meets, pushing and propelling them towards their destiny. His currently has two books under the Success Thoughts umbrella, Success Thoughts Life Confessions and The Success Diaries, a collection of quotes and blogs that are sure to inspire, motivate, and encourage all who read it to press toward their destined place in life.
