A Very Real Barrier To Faith Is This Feeling Of Self-sufficiency, This Unrealistic Idea That One Can Accomplish Everything By His Or Her Own Self. Some People Have The Conviction They Must Do It All Alone. They Have No Faith In Others. . . They Are Convinced That There Is No One Able To Do The Job As Well As Themselves.

The Eagle Is An Individualist And Was Selected From Among The Rest Of The Birds To Be Our Symbol. But The Buffalo Was Never Alone. It Always Ran In A Herd With Other Buffaloes. And, Friends, I Call Your Attention That The Buffaloes Are Gone From The Open Range, But The Eagles Are Still Soaring.

Believe That All The Resources You Need Are In Your Mind. That Is A Formula That Really Works.

God In His Answers To Prayer Often Says "yes." Sometimes He Says "wait." Often He Says "no." In Any Case, His Will Is Done, And True Faith Is To Believe That What Happened Has Happened For The Best. If One Does Not Take That Attitude, He Is Setting His Personal Desire Against The Wisdom Of God. Oftentimes We Confuse With Faith Merely That Which We Desire.

God Loves You. God Doesn't Want Anyone To Be Hungry And Oppressed. He Just Puts His Big Arms Around Everybody And Hugs Them Up Against Himself.

Take A New Look At Your Present "impossible." Consider Positive Ways To Handle It.

So The Best Way To Achieve Real Fulfillment Is To Be Yourself.

To Experience The Satisfaction And Enjoyment Of Success In Life, A Definitive Goal Is Essential. Many People Fail At This Vital Point. The Goal Must Be Definite And Specific, Not In Any Sense Vague Or Fuzzy. And To Prove Attainable, Its Image Needs To Be Sharpened And Resharpened Continually, So That It Stands Out Vividly In Your Thoughts.
