Anything that is of value in life only multiplies when it is given.

"Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some
other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the
change that we seek."
 ~

Thoughts become words

Words become Actions

Actions become character

Character is everything

CONCENTRATION OPENS THE DOOR TO SUCCESS.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The first law of success is concentration.
Bend all your energies to one point,
and go directly to that point,
looking neither to the left nor the right.
By focusing your efforts to a single point,
you'll always achieve the greatest results.
If you concentrate your efforts on a few major goals,
your efficiency will soar, your projects will be completed,
and you'll be going somewhere.
Focus totally on the business at hand
and command yourself to do exactly what you want to do.
If you focus the full power of all you are
on what you have a burning desire to achieve,
you'll attain success.

YOU'RE SURROUNDED BY OPPORTUNITY

The people that really succeed in the world
are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want,
and, if they can't find them, make them.
The lure of the distant and the difficult is deceptive.
The great opportunity in your life is where you are right now.
Properly perceived, every situation becomes an opportunity for you.
Your destiny is not a matter of chance,
it's a matter of your choice.
It's not something you wait for,
but rather something you achieve with effort.
Things won't turn up in this world until you turn them up.
You develop opportunity by applying persistence to your possibilities.
Opportunity is all around you. Look for it, and you will find it.

"He is happiest who hath power to gather wisdom from a flower."
