Wealth

The simple act of commitment is a powerful magnet for success.

"Until one is COMMITTED there is hesitancy, the chance to draw
back, always ineffectiveness.

"Concerning all acts of initiative there is one elementary truth,
the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans;
That the moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence
moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would
otherwise never have occurred.

"A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in
one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and
material assistance, which no man could have dreamt would have come
his way."
- William N. Murray

"Some people dream of worthy accomplishments, while others stay
awake and do them."

"Many people have a good aim in life, but for some reason they
never pull the trigger."

"Teamwork makes the Dream work"

"The majority of mankind is lazy-minded, incurious, absorbed in
vanities, and tepid in emotion, and is therefore incapable of
either much doubt or much faith."
- T.S. Eliot

When it is time for you to board your train, will you be left
standing on the platform wondering if you should embark on the
unknown, or will you joyfully and expectantly leap on board?
Success is a decision made in a moment of confidence born in a
spirit of boldness. It is in confidence and boldness where all
life is found. Success comes from stepping up and embracing all
that life has to offer.
- Carolyn Barnes

Doubt and hesitation are signs of mental and emotional weakness
that develop in an environment of fear. Live each day exercising the
muscles of confidence and faith. Never shrink back when duty calls
you forward. Expand to meet life. Never step down, when your
fate calls you to step forward. Step boldly into life. Never back
down when your destiny moves you to step up. Move confidently
into life.
- Carolyn Barnes

A fool is someone who believes everything,...or nothing.
