Losers are winners who didn't know when to quit. 
 
Keep 'em coming, Tom (your short ones that is)...this is fun doing the reverse logic.  Can you tell it's been a long winter?  But spring has sprung, and I'll take my warped mind out to nature soon, for my sake & yours.

He or she who does, will.

It is difficult to make a man miserable while he feels he is worthy of himself and claims kindred to the great God who made him.

If you believe you can, you probably can. If you believe you won't, you most assuredly won't. Belief is the ignition switch that gets you off the launching pad. Launch yourself!!!!!!!!!!

What does money like? Money likes speed. That's the secret few know about money. Money comes to those who act fast. If you think, wonder, question, doubt, plan, meet, discuss, or in any other way drag your feet, money goes to the next person in line.

If you do not conquer self, you will be conquered by self. You must learn to love and respect yourself in order to be successful at anything.

GIVE
By Dr. Tim Wright

There is a body of water in Israel that is actually below sea level. Water constantly trickles INTO it, but, because of the law of gravity, nothing can flow OUT of it. Do you know the name of this famous lake? It's called the Dead Sea. It's called this because the mineral deposits have accumulated to such an extent that no living thing could survive in this water. The water is literally dead.

Contrast this to what happens with "living water." When you think of the term living water" the image that comes to mind is a rushing river or bubbling spring that is FLOWING. It's filled with life and movement. It doesn't just "receive," but is also giving" simultaneously. There is LIFE there.

There's a valuable illustration here. Many of us believe that we need to RECEIVE more of something in order to be happy. Whether what we desire is money or love or something else, we think that we need MORE of it in order to be fulfilled. As a result of this, we begin to operate in fear and therefore don't GIVE anything because we're afraid that we won't have enough. The result? Like the Dead Sea, we become lifeless.

When we don't GIVE, we die.

Life is meant to flow. When a pool of anything stops flowing (giving), it becomes stagnant. Stagnant water breeds disease and death. It can't breathe. It can't receive any more. If nothing is flowing OUT, there's no room for anything else to come IN.

The solution? Give.

As you give, you WILL receive. It's a universal law. You see it at work in nature. You see it at work in the economy. You see it at work everywhere, because it's true.

We've somehow been deceived into believing that if we DON'T give, we'll have MORE. Or we're afraid that if we DO give, that we won't have anything left. On one hand, this seems to make sense. But it doesn't work. Because when we don't give, we shut off the flow of what's coming in.
 


If you truly desire to receive more of something, start giving it away. I know this sounds crazy, but it works. If you want someone to be kind to you, be kind to them. If you want love in your life, love someone. If you want money, give some money away. If you want joy in your life, give joy to someone else.

The universe only responds when we act. Take the first step and watch miracles begin to happen. Too often we're waiting for something to come to us first. Take the initiative. Give and you WILL receive.

It takes a real storm in the average person's life to make him realize how much worrying he has done over the squalls.

Remove this phrase from your mind, it will never get you anywhere, "I give up". Watch this video carefully and apply it.

If you really do put a small value upon yourself, rest assured that the world will not raise your price.

But if you place too high of a value upon yourself, you can be assured that some of the world will not meet your price.  Find your place in the world, and you will find your price, your content and your peace.

There is no scarcity of opportunity to make a living at what you love; there's only a scarcity of resolve to make it happen.

True friends are like jewels, precious and rare.
False ones are like autumn leaves, found everywhere.

Jewels are earned and leaves collected.  When the jewels leave us, tis good to have the leaves we collected and preserved to sustain us forward.

Every person has the ability to be the architect of his own future and fortune. Some see that future, most do not. Are you seeing your future and are you doing something about it?

Ability may get you to the top, but it takes character to keep you there. Have you checked your character lately?

The strongest principle of growth lies in human choice. Make sure you have researched and then make an intelligent choice in everything you do. Bad choices can lead to total chaos. Fortunately most of my choices have been good, but a few were bad and that created problems much less desirable. Just use common sense and THINK.

Challenge yourself to confront any anxiety or fear with hope and faith. Doubt and faith cannot exist in the same mind at the same time.
