Thought of the Week 8/23-8/29

“Catch on fire with enthusiasm and people will come for miles to watch you burn.”-- John Wesley


I've heard this saying before, but it is ringing more true for me everyday as I take off with my speaking business. Bringing enthusiasm to the table attracts people to you like a moth to a flame. I am trying to harness this and take it to my everyday life. What could you change in your life with enthusiasm? It doesn't require any money or skill, just plain old effort. Be enthusiastic today!

Thought of the Week 8/16-8/22

"Accepting the past and being flexible with the future gives us more freedom to live our lives in the present"-- Linus Chang 3rd Place in TM International Speech Contest


I had the most humbling experience in California this past weekend. I will write a full thought about it when I get home tonight, but these past 5 days have been amazing.

Thought of the Week 8/9-8/15


"Strength is moving forward even when you know there are trials ahead"-- O

For some reason, that thought made me think of the Serenity Prayer...God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can;and wisdom to know the difference.
Strength and courage are related heavily and are definitely needed to achieve in this hectic life that we live. If we can have some faith and be strong we can make it.... Have a productive week! -- O

Thought of the Week 8/2-8/8

The things you merely possess can be lost or taken from you in an instant. Yet the things that you become will be a part of you always.-- Ralph Marston

We all know the old saying, you are what you eat. Well I feel like you become what you think. Thoughts are things and we must control them, or else we will end up becoming something that we don't even recognize in the mirror. Control your thoughts and start the achievement process today! --O
