A LEAP IN THE DARK

"All growth is a leap in the dark, a spontaneous, unpremeditated act without benefit of experience." ~HENRY MILLER~

VERSE TO REMEMBER

"Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised." Proverbs 31:30

CHARM

Today, I wo'nt worry about whether I'm having a good time at an event. I'll see what I can do to help others enjoy themselves.

CHARM

We admire the life of the party, the person who attracts others with his or her wit and wisdom. We envy the "looker," the person who attracts others with his or her beauty and physical attributes. But the people we really want to be around are the ones who show an interest in us. When they ask about our likes and dislikes, laugh at our jokes, compliment our appearance, we feel good about them-and ourselves.

CHARM

"A beauty is a woman you notice; a charmer is one who notices you." ~ADLAI STEVENSON~

VERSE TO REMEMBER

"Am I now trying to win the approval of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ." ~Galatians 1:10~

TRYING AGAIN

Today, instead of complaining about how frustrating my failures are and how others seem to have it so much better than me, I will just keep plugging along towards what I want.

TRYING AGAIN

Few people simply leap to the top of their profession. Most get there incrementally-step by step, experience by experience, and even mistake by mistake. If we give up, we fail for certain. To have even a chance at success, we have to keep reloading and taking aim at our target.

TRYING AGAIN

"Big Shots are only little shots who keep shooting." ~CHRISTOPHER MORLEY~

VERSE TO REMEMBER

"In whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine to them." 2 Corinthians 4:4
