you are not what you think you are; but what you think, you are. - Norman Vincent Peale

Lord: “I believe You have a plan for my life, so there must be some purpose in my getting fired. Instead of railing against my fate, I humbly ask You to show me the purpose in what has happened.” Once he began to believe there had been a reason and some meaning behind what had happened to him, it was easier to rid himself of resentment against his former employers. And once that happened he was “employable” again.

"Joy increases as you give it, and diminishes as you try to keep it yourself. In giving it, you will accumulate a deposit of joy greater than you ever believed possible." ~ Norman Vincent Peale

People who make no mistakes lack boldness and the spirit of adventure. They are the brakes on the wheels of progress.
