All personal achievement starts in the mind of the individual. Your personal achievement starts in your mind. the first step is to know exactly what your problem, goal or desire is. If you're not clear about this, then write it down, and rewrite it until the words express precisely what you are after. Every disadvantage has an equivalent advantage - if you'll take the trouble to find it. Learn to do that and you'll kick the stuffing out of adversity every time.

We are masters, first, of our attitudes. Our attitudes shape our future. This is a universal law.

Every adversity has the seed of an equivalent or greater benefit.

Bondage is - subjection to external influences and internal negative thoughts and attitudes.

When our attitude towards ourselves is big, and our attitude toward others is generous and merciful, we attract big and generous portions of success.

Be generous! Give to those you love; give to those who love you; give to the fortunate; give to the unfortunate - yes, give especially to those to whom you don't want to give. You will receive abundance for your giving. The more you give, the more you will have!

No matter how carefully you plan your goals they will never be more than pipe dreams unless you pursue them with gusto.
