DON’T BELIEVE IN MIRACLES, DEPEND ON THEM

You don’t need an explanation for everything.

Recognize that there are such things as miracles, events for which there are no explanations. Later, knowledge may explain those events away.

The fact that you plant a seed and it becomes a flower, share a bit of knowledge and it becomes another’s, smile at someone and receive a smile in return are common miracles.

Your duty to yourself is to believe that for which you have sufficient evidence, and to suspend your judgement when you have not.

Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. Some things have to be believed to be seen.

Vision is the art of seeing invisible things.

SUCCESS IS CLOSER THAN YOU THINK

Every situation, properly perceived, becomes an opportunity. But you have to act on them if you’re going to be successful.

Distant pastures always look greener than those close at hand, but real opportunities are right where you are.

You must simply take advantage of them when they appear. You can start where you are at any time.

Success is all around you. It’s not in your environment, it’s not in luck or chance, or in the help of others. Success is in yourself alone.

You don’t need more strength or more ability or greater opportunity. What you need is to use what you have. Learn to seize good fortune, for it is always around you.

You must go to success, it doesn’t come to you.

Open your own doors to opportunity.

YOU WILL FIND TRUE JOY USING YOUR POTENTIAL

Your greatest success and happiness in life will be found when you use your natural abilities to their fullest extent. Happiness is not

having or being. It’s in the doing.

The essence of true wisdom is to know that rest is rust, and that real life is activity, laughter, and love.

You were created to conquer your environment, to solve problems, and to achieve goals. You’ll find no real satisfaction or

happiness in life without obstacles to conquer and goals to achieve.

Yes, there is true happiness. It’s found in doing a job well done, in achieving a worthy goal, in putting your child to sleep, and in

writing the last line of your poem.

Your personal growth itself contains the seed of happiness.

FOLLOW THE PATH OF OTHERS TO SUCCESS

You can learn from other people to make up for your lack of experience in any area of life.

Be open and receptive to the people around you. They have things to teach you.

Take advantage of the people that have made the journey ahead of you.

Try to pick the right role models. Don’t look for people that make you feel good or entertain you. Look for people that can help you.

Role models are more than people you like and admire.

The key is to look for people that will help you to be more successful. You can learn from the mistakes of others. You can learn

different approaches to overcoming challenges.

Learning “what not to do” is as important as learning “what to do.”

WHEN YOU STOP DREAMING YOU STOP LIVING

If you want to enlarge your life, you must first enlarge your thought of it and yourself.

Hold the image of yourself as you long to be, the image of what you long to obtain, the image of health, efficiency and success.

You can lift yourself by your thoughts. Your vision will allow you surmount the highest obstacles. High achievement always takes place in the framework of high expectation.

What you see is what you get.

You’ll become as small as your controlling desire or as great as your dominant aspiration. The courage to follow your dreams is your first step towards destiny.

You can live your dreams.

LOVE IS ETERNAL

Once you have learned to love; who you are, what you do, and those around you, you will have truly learned to live.

Search for love, for it is the most important ingredient of life.

Without it, your life will echo emptiness.

With it, your life will vibrate with warmth and meaning. Even during any hardship, love will shine through.

To love abundantly is to live abundantly. To love forever is to live forever.

Be thankful for what you have now.

And be thankful for the opportunities for love and success that are before you.

THE COURAGE TO BEGIN

The courage to begin separates dreamers from achievers.

Your difficulty and the difficulty of everyone who ever desires to achieve anything worthwhile comes in the movement.

Don’t always be intending to live a new life but never find a time to begin living it.

Most people fail because they never get started. They don’t go they don’t overcome inertia, they don’t begin.

Begin to free yourself at once by doing all that is possible with the means you have.

As you proceed in this spirit, the way will open for you to do more. The worst you can do is not to try.
