There is one quality

“There is one quality that one must possess to win,

and that is definiteness of purpose,

the knowledge of what one wants,

and a burning desire to possess it.”

- Napoleon Hill -

We should be taught

We should be taught not to wait for inspiration to start a thing.

Action always generates inspiration.

Inspiration seldom generates action.

Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life

Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life.

It turns what we have into enough, and more.

It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity.

It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend.

Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today,

and creates a vision for tomorrow.

- Melody Beattie -

Suzy’s daisy No kind

Suzy’s daisy No kind action ever stops with itself.

One kind action leads to another.

Good example is followed.

A single act of kindness throws out roots in all directions,

and the roots spring up and make new trees.

The greatest work that kindness does to others is that

it makes them kind themselves.

- Amelia Earhart -

Universe There’s only one corner

Universe  There’s only one corner of the

universe you can be certain of improving and that’s your own self.
- Aldous Huxley -

You’ve done it before

You’ve done it before and you can do it now.

See the positive possibilities.

Redirect the substantial energy of your

frustration and turn it into positive, effective,

unstoppable determination.

- Ralph Marston -

Wealth and want equally harden

Wealth and want equally harden the human heart.

Great joy, especially after a sudden change of circumstances,

is apt to be silent, and dwells rather in the heart than on the tongue.

- Theodore Parker -

If wrinkles must be written

“If wrinkles must be written upon our brows,

let them not be written upon the heart.

The spirit should not grow old.”
- James Garfield -

When the future hinges

“When the future hinges
on the next words that are said,
don’t let logic interfere,
believe your heart instead.”
- Philip Robison -

Nothing is less in our power

“Nothing is less in our power than the heart,

and far from commanding we are forced to obey it.”
- Jean Jacques Rousseau -
