By success, of course, I do not mean that you may become rich, famous, or powerful for that does not, of necessity, represent achievement. Indeed, not infrequently, such individuals represent pathetic failure as persons.

When you pray for anyone you tend to modify your personal attitude toward him.

If you think in positive terms, you will achieve positive results.

Every person, if he is to have mental health and live successfully, must move away from past failures and mistakes and go forward without letting them be a weight upon him. The art of forgetting is absolutely necessary.

Practice hope. As hopefulness becomes a habit, you can achieve a permanently happy spirit.

If you have zest and enthusiasm you attract zest and enthusiasm. Life does give back in kind.

Through persistence, self-knowledge, prayer, commitment, optimism, a resolute trust in God and the building of your own personal moral strength, you can enjoy the blessings of a deeper faith and face the difficulties of life with courage and confidence.
