It has been my experience that the Universe will give you what you expect and not what you want. The reason for this is that it is your feelings and not your thoughts that will attract whatever happens to you. That is a slight but very meaningful distinction.
Have you ever noticed that [...]

One of the basic human needs is a sense of significance. We need to feel that we are somebody, that we matter and that we are important. That need is so great that it gets to define whom we are, how we interact with others and most of our behavior.
That need for self-significance and the [...]

Some very wise man said, “Regret is insight that comes a day too late.” That wise man could also have added that regret is probably the most useless emotion under the face of the Earth. It is disempowering and serves no good purpose.

“Formal education will make you a living; self-education will make you a fortune.” Jim Rohn
One thing that they will never teach you in any school, college or university is the fact that your real education starts on the day that you receive your diploma and leave school. Until that day, all that you’ve been doing [...]

Champions are not born, they are made, self-made. They are self-made and they share a common trait; they all want to win more than anybody else… there lays their main secret. Winning and desire are two words that go together; you can’t have one without the other. They are like Siamese twin, inseparable.
Napoleon Hill [...]

At birth, we were not much more than a clean slate and pure potential. We did not remain that way for long. By age three, parental influence already had laid the groundwork for what we would become.
