YOUR TRIALS AND SORROWS DEVELOP YOU

Trouble is the common denominator of living. It's the great equalizer of life. Whatever good or bad fortune comes your way, give it meaning and transform it into something of value.

Personal growth is the process of responding positively to change – “Personal growth equates income.” All growth means change and change always involves risks, stepping from the known to the unknown. All of your growth depends on activity. It only comes from continuous effort and struggle.

Life chips and pounds you to bring out your possibilities. She will strip you of wealth, humble your pride, humiliate your ambition, let you down from the ladder of fame, and discipline you in a thousand different ways, if she can develop a little character - everything gives way to that. Remember this “impression management rules the world.”

Wealth is nothing, position is nothing, and fame is nothing. Who you become inside is everything. What happens to you is not as important as how you react to what happens.

IN THE MIDDLE OF DIFFICULTY LIES OPPORTUNITY‏

You cannot have success without dealing with problems. Look for your opportunity in every difficulty instead of being paralyzed at the thought of difficulty in every opportunity. Each new experience brings with it the seed of your success. Even your current difficulties have within them opportunity. Like the Bible tells us that “…even the darkness shall be light to thee”

Welcome your problems as opportunities. Each moment is your greatest challenge and the best thing that ever happened to you; for opportunity seldom comes labeled.

The more difficult your problem, the greater the challenge in working it out. When it's dark enough, you can see the stars.

A FRIEND TO ME

Thank God for you – good friend of my
Seldom is our friendship as that of time
How very much I often wish to be
As helpful as you’ve been to me

When I recall from time to time
How you’ve inspired this heart of mine
I find myself inclined to kneel and pray
That the good Lord should guide you all the way

So often at His throne of grace I stand
Your face I see at his right hand
And then instructively I bow to pray
“God bless my dearest friend today”

Someday, I hope with you I’ll stand
Before His throne – at his right hand
And say to you as my journey comes to end
“Praise God, You’ve been to me a dear friend”

EVERYTHING HAS A PRICE

No one has a corner on success. Success is for everyone – anyone; whosoever that can pay the price for it, success is yours.

There is no easy road to success. You’ve got to work a great deal harder than most people to get it. Like many successful people would say – “do the things today others won’t do in order to have the things tomorrow others won’t have.” Nothing worthwhile will come easily to you. Hard work will accomplish results that last.

No matter what you want from life, you've got to give up something to get it. There is no success at bargain basement prices. You'll find that the highway to success is a toll road. Some say that OPPORTUNITY seldom comes labelled. Its true!

SUCCESS IS A DETERMINED ACTION AWAY

Foolish people with all their other thoughts, have this one too. They are always getting ready to live, but never living. Your success will start when you begin to pursue it. To reach your goal or to attain success, you don't need to know all the answers in advance.
You just need to have a clear idea of what your goal is.

Don't procrastinate when faced with difficult problems. Break your problems into parts, and handle one part at a time – “one day at a time”.

Develop tendencies toward taking action. You can make something happen right now. Divide your big plan into small steps and take that first step right away, everyone who got where they are had to begin where they were. Your big opportunity is where you are right now.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. Take it.

Things We Miss

You ran through your entire years
Not stopping to enjoy each passing day
And you took every guy you met for granted
As you traveled your primitive way

As you faced pain and ardent sorrow
Something inside pulled you through
That something was private and special
Sent from heaven for such a one as you

You never stopped to measure
The good tidings you carelessly miss
And since the world never did slowed down
You always miss the good night kiss

And now your tender heart seems heavy
Filled with regrets and a great deal of pain
No one dares to console you
But I say – remember this once again

Remember those you took for granted
Because they were too young to be called thine
And the precious moments you never started
Were the tender and lovely kisses of mine,

OPPORTUNITY APPEARS WHEN YOU ARE READY

Chance is turned into good fortune by successful people. You are surrounded by all kinds of opportunity. Luck is being at the right place at the right time. Taking advantage of an opportunity is always under your control. When you are mentally prepared the right opportunity will present itself.

Talent alone won't make you successful. Neither will being at the right place at the right time unless you are ready. When the student is ready, the teacher appears.

Goodbye – Good night

She never said goodbye
And I really can’t phantom why
This is not her first time
Does it mean she isn’t mine?

They say she found someone new
A young dude from the Big Boys crew
But to me it doesn’t seem to matter
She is for me – I won’t look for another

Her memory can’t fade – I love her that much
I would still love her if only we keep in touch
But where she’s headed I don’t know
Guess I’m left to wonder on my own

The past I can’t seem too much to forget
The present is too much to neglect
Anytime I remember – I break down and cry
Because she left without saying GOODBYE

Vision Your Goals

See things as you would have them be instead of as they are. Visualize your goals and your subconscious will go to work toward making your mental pictures come true. You have been given the capacity and the power to create desirable pictures inside your mind and to find them automatically printed in the outer world of your environment.

Picture yourself as winning, and that alone will contribute immeasurably to your success. What you see in your mind you can really have.

THERE IS NO SUCCESS WITHOUT HARDSHIP

The world is so constructed that if you wish to enjoy its pleasures, you must also endure its pains. Like it or not, you cannot have one without the other. Success is not measured by what you accomplish. It's measured by the opposition you encounter, and the courage with which you maintain your struggle against the odds.

You'll find all things are difficult before they are easy. The greater your obstacles, the more glory in overcoming them. So, make up your mind before you start that sacrifice is part of the package.

No pain, no gain;
No thorns, no throne;
No cross, no crown.
