Good intentions are no substitute for obedience.

If you paint in your mind a picture of bright and happy expectations, you put yourself into a condition conducive to your goal.

If you feel afraid, you can make yourself courageous by acting courageous. If you are feeling unhappy, by deliberately acting happy you can induce happy feeling. If you are lacking in enthusiasm, by simply acting enthusiastic you can make yourself enthusiastic.

Positive thinking is how you think about a problem. Enthusiasm is how you feel about a problem. The two together determine what you do about a problem.

Nobody ever mastered any skill except through intensive persistent and intelligent practice.

To have a mind full of peace, merely fill it full of peace. It's as simple as that.

Enthusiasm releases the drive to carry you over obstacles and adds significance to all you do.
