“Everyone who achieves success in a great venture, solves each problem as they came to it. They helped themselves, and they were helped through powers known and unknown to them at the time they set out on their voyage. They kept going regardless of the obstacles they met.”
-W. Clement Stone, Author and Businessman
“As long as we live, our self-absorption and our insecurity will walk together, holding hands and swinging them back and forth like two little girls on their way to a pretend playground they can never find. Human nature dictates that most often we will be as insecure as are self-absorbed. The best possible way to keep from getting sucked into the superficial narcissistic mentality that money, possessions, and sensuality can satisfy and secure us is to deliberately give ourselves to something much greater...Jesus Christ showed us that giving, rather than getting is the means to receiving....to find yourself, your true self, you must lose yourself in something larger.”
-Wanda Elizabeth “Beth” Moore, Evangelist, Author, Teacher, and Founder of Living Proof Ministries
“The greatest day in your life and mine is when we take total responsibility for our attitudes. That’s the day we truly grow up.”

(36) Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so that I should not be delivered to the Jews; but now My kingdom is not from here.
(37) Pilate therefore said to Him, ‘Are you a king then?’ Jesus answered , “You say rightly that I am a king. For this cause I was born, and for this cause I have come into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice.”
(38) Pilate said to Him, ‘What is truth?’ And when he had said this, he went out again to the Jews and said to them, ‘I find no fault in Him at all.’ ”
-JESUS CHRIST, HOLY BIBLE BOOK OF JOHN 18: 36-38 NKJV

Conduct your life within all of the applicable laws. Be honest and always speak the truth. Doing so means you will never have to change your story. And remember, always treat other people the very same way that you would want them to treat you. Be kind and courteous to everyone with whom you come in contact.”

“Formulate and stamp indelibly on your mind a mental picture of yourself as succeeding. Hold this picture tenaciously. Never permit it to fade. Your mind will seek to develop the picture...Do not build up obstacles in your imagination.”
