The vision that you glorify in your mind, the ideal that you enthrone in your heart this you will build your life by, and this you will become.

Men are anxious to improve their circumstances, but are unwilling to improve themselves; they therefore remain bound

People do not attract that which they want, but that which they are. (To put it another way: When you stop working on what it is you're trying to get and start working on YOU, only then will you get what it is you want.)

You cannot escape the results of your thoughts. Whatever your present environment may be, you will fall, remain or rise with your thoughts, your vision, your ideal. You will become as small as your controlling desire; as great as your dominant aspiration.

Vision doesn't usually come as a lightening bolt. Rather it comes as a slow crystallization of life challenges that we one day recognize as a beautiful diamond with great value to ourselves and others.

Vision without action is merely a dream. Action without vision just passes the time. Vision with action can change the world.
