Ideal vision

The vision that you glorify in your mind, the ideal that you enthrone in your heart - this you will build your life by, and this you will become.
- James Allen (1864-1912)

Of value

Prosperity consciousness is the awareness that all of us have something of value to offer, and we all deserve to get paid for what we provide to others.

- Peggy McColl

Riches

Look to your health; and if you have it, praise God and value it next to conscience; for health is the second blessing that we mortals are capable of, a blessing money can't buy.

-- Izaak Walton (1593-1683)

Decisions and choices

A sign of wisdom and maturity is when you come to terms with the realization that your decisions cause your rewards and consequences. You are responsible for your life, and your ultimate success depends on the choices you make.

-- Denis Waitley

Dream

Everybody builds a dream in their lifetime. You’re either going to build your dream, or somebody else's. So build your own.

-- Christopher LaBrec

Timelessness

The wise grieve neither for the living nor for the dead. There has never been a time when you and I and the kings gathered here have not existed, nor will there be a time when we will cease to exist. As the same person inhabits the body through childhood, youth, and old age, so too at the time of death he attains another body. The wise are not deluded by these changes.

-- Bhagavad Gita 2:12-13


So peaceful, simply to read this.

Champ

To be a champ, you have to believe in yourself when nobody else will.

- Sugar Ray Robinson (1920-1989)

Time-line

Very few of us know how much we can put into life if we use it properly, wisely, and economically. Let us economize our time -- lifetimes ebb away before we wake up, and that is why we do not realize the value of the immortal time God has given us.

-- Paramahansa Yogananda
