The Paradox Is That Exactly The Reverse Is True. Everything That’s Really Worthwhile In Life Came To Us Free; Our Minds, Our Souls, Our Bodies, Our Hopes, Our Dreams, Our Ambitions, Our Intelligence, Our Love Of Family And Children And Friends And Country. All These Priceless Possessions Are Free. But The Things That Cost Us Money Are Actually Very Cheap And Can Be Replaced At Any Time. A Good Man Can Be Completely Wiped Out And Make Another Fortune. He Can Do That Several Times. Even If Our Home Burns Down, We Can Rebuild It. But The Things We Got For Nothing, We Can Never Replace.

Dr. Johnson Said: "whilst You Stand Deliberating Which Book Your Son Shall Read First, Another Boy Has Read Both."

Most People Tiptoe Their Way Through Life, Hoping They Make It Safely To Death.

You Are, At This Moment, Standing, Right In The Middle Of Your Own 'acres Of Diamonds.'

On Christmas Morning, Our Joy Or Our Happiness Can Be At A Very High Level, Not Because Of Our Anticipation Of What We Might Receive But, Rather, In Anticipation Of Watching Our Loved Ones Open Our Gifts To Them. In Fact, If We're Not Careful, We Can Fail To Register Sufficient Excitement And Joy Upon Opening The Gifts We Receive From Others. We Must Remember That They Are Happiest At That Time And To Give Them Top Billing, To Stretch Their Happiness To Its Full Length.

For A Person To Build A Rich And Rewarding Life For Himself, There Are Certain Qualities And Bits Of Knowledge That He Needs To Acquire.

Every-time We Use A Product Or Service, Someone Is Serving Us.

Every Minute Should Be Enjoyed And Savored.

Cherish Every Moment

Enjoy It While It Lasts

Do Each Day All That Can Be Done That Day. You Don't Need To Overwork Or To Rush Blindly Into Your Work Trying To Do The Greatest Possible Number Of Things In The Shortest Possible Time. Don't Try To Do Tomorrow's Or Next Week's Work Today. It's Not The Number Of Things You Do, But The Quality, The Efficiency Of Each Separate Action That Count. To Achieve This "habit Of Success," You Need Only To Focus On The Most Important Tasks And Succeed In Each Small Task Of Each Day.

We Are All Creatures Of Habit. We Can Do Most Things Without Even Thinking About Them; Our Bodies Take Charge And Do Them For Us.

There Are Times For All Of Us When All The Laughter Seems To Be Gone, But We Should Not Permit These Periods To Last Too Long. When We've Lost Our Sense Of Humor, There Isn't Very Much Left. We Become Ridiculous. We Must Then Go To War Against The Whole World, And That's A War We Cannot Win.

Your World Is A Living Expression Of How You Are Using And Have Used Your Mind.

The More Intensely We Feel About An Idea Or A Goal, The More Assuredly The Idea, Buried Deep In Our Subconscious, Will Direct Us Along The Path To Its Fulfillment.

Be Positive, Cheerful, Grateful And Expectant.
