THOUGHT PROVOKING

From Gene Warren: “People Who Soar” – People who soar are those who refuse to sit back, laugh and wish things would change. They neither complain of their lot nor passively dream of some distant ship coming in. Rather, they visualize in their minds that they are not quitters; they will not allow life’s circumstances to push them down and hold them under. “Goals”- Choose little goals and receive little achievements. Choose big goals and accomplish big successes. From Jim Nussmeier: “HUGS are practically perfect: they are low energy consumption, high energy yield, no monthly payments, non-fattening, inflation proof, no pesticides, no preservatives, non-taxable, non-polluting, and of course, fully returnable.
