JUST DO IT
You will never get to the top if you are afraid of heights; you'll never scale the wall if you are afraid you'll fall. Youl'll never win if you are afraid you'll lose; you'll never finish if you are afraid to start. So go on, give up your fears, the self consumed antidote to your success. JUST DO...

A lady friend just sent this to me. Perhaps you'll find it as hilarious as I have. Can God really be stumped? A man riding his Harley was riding along a California beach when suddenly the sky clouded above his head and, in a booming voice, the Lord said, "Because you have tried to be faithful to me...

ENJOY THE DETOUR
How often are we "forced" off the charted route and believe fate is denying us the opportunities to which we are entitled? How often do we chastise others, and ourselves, for not taking a certain route? Yet, how often are we wrong? Nearly always. You see there is a plan somewhere, by someone, or...

LUCK
Luck is not happenstance. It is the outcome of hard work, perseverance, persistence, grit, commonsense, determination, and dedication. I am at the right place at the right time because I have followed my dream and I am always where the action is. Then I learn some things that change my approach and...

THE DARKER SIDE OF HUMAN BEINGS: JUXTAPOSE; PONDER.
The spirit that I have seen may be a devil: and the devil hath power to assume a pleasing shape. The serpent that did sting my father's life Now wears his crown. Any of of us who is over five years old relate to these quotes of Hamlet. Interesting how the world has not changed an iota since the...

BRILLIANCE
The mind accedes to brilliance when he realizes that he does not know much; develops the commitment and urge to know more; and concedes the frustrating discovery that he will never know enough. (LST/NY/04/28/07)

DO NOT STOP ASKING!!
People sometimes sneer and scoff because you ask questions; because you have a critical mind. They say that you are the ONLY one to ask such a question; the ONLY one to make such an observation. Yet, all the persons who have had a lasting effect on mankind took your approach. Darwin, Einstein,...

UNIVERSAL TRUTHS
Yes, these sayings are true: "The darkest hour comes just before the dawn"; "You cannot fall further than the bottom." When all seem lost, remember that's just a beginning. Get up, dust off, fight off the "I cants' and forge ahead. My goodly mother recalled an incident in her young life. She was...

THINK ABOUT THIS
In Hamlet, The Bard has a father admonish his son, "To thine own self be true; And it must follow as the night, the day; Thou canst not then be false to anyone". How profound.
