It is strange, but true, that the most important turning-points of life often come at the most unexpected times and in the most unexpected ways.

It is your responsibility to make sure that positive emotions constitute the dominating influence of your mind.

You are searching for the magic key that will unlock the door to the source of power; and yet you have the key in your own hands, and you may use it the moment you learn to control your thoughts.

You are fortunate if you have learned the difference between temporary defeat and failure, more fortunate still if you have learned the truth that the very seed of success is dormant in every defeat that you experience.

You are the master of your destiny. You can influence, direct and control your own environment. You can make your life what you want it to be.

The most practical of all methods for controlling the mind is the habit of keeping it busy with a definite purpose, backed by a definite plan.

When you begin to think and grow rich, you will observe that riches begin with a state of mind, with definiteness of purpose, with little or no hard work.
