As fast as each opportunity presents itself, use it! No matter how tiny an opportunity it may be, use it!

First the stalk — then the roots. First the need — then the means to satisfy that need . First the nucleus — then the elements needed for its growth. The seed is a primary cause. The need, the nucleus, both are primary causes. Conditions — they are secondary. Given enough life in the nucleus, it will draw to itself the necessary means for growth regardless of conditions.

The great thing is the start - to see an opportunity for service, and to start doing it, even though in the beginning you serve but a single customer - and him for nothing.

See things that you want as already yours. Know that they will come to you at need. Then let them come. Don't fret and worry about them. Don't think about your lack of them. Think of them as yours, as belonging to you, as already in your possession.

Your belief that you can do the thing gives your thought forces their power.

Achievement is the entirety of little deliberations, rehashed all the live long day.

Use the talents God has given you to make the world better for your having been in it.
