All day long the thoughts that occupy your mind, your Secret Place, as Jesus calls it, are moulding your destiny for good or evil; in fact, the truth is that the whole of our lifeโs experience is but the outer expression of inner thought. Now we can choose the sort of thoughts that we entertain. It will be a little difficult to break a bad habit of thought, but it can be done. We can choose how we shall thinkโin point of fact, we always do chooseโand therefore our lives are just the result of the kind of thoughts we have

The only real misfortune, the only real tragedy, comes when we suffer without learning the lesson.
