“God, in His infinite wisdom, gives us twelve years to develop a love for our children before turning them into teenagers.”
Master Your Feelings
“Our emotions are our least dependable, and often most deceptive, sensing devices. What the wise old masters have told us in a thousand ways boils down to this: it is easier to act your way into feeling the way you want then it is to feel your way into acting the way you want. In other words, master your feelings; don’t let them master you.” – Nido Qubein
The Power of Written Goals
“Clear, written goals have a wonderful effect on your thinking. They motivate you and galvanize you into action. They stimulate your creativity, release your energy, and help you to overcome procrastination as much as any other factor. Goals are the fuel in the furnace of achievement. The bigger your goals and the clearer they are, the more excited you become about achieving them. The more you think about your goals, the greater becomes your inner drive and desire to accomplish them. Think about your goals and review them daily. Every morning when you begin, take action on the most important task you can accomplish to achieve your most important goal at the moment.” – Brian Tracy
Live a Life of Permanent Purpose
“If you are like many people, you often feel like your life is lacking purpose. While it may not feel like it, every move we make and every action we take, matters not just for us, but for all of us… and for all time. When one lives a life of permanent purpose, sales figures soar, team chemistry thrives and teenage decisions become wiser and more cautious. And these are just a few examples of what will happen… Simply put, when we understand that every action maters, every result of our actions immediately improves!” – Andy Andrews
