    IF I had money…
    IF I wasn't fat...
    IF I didn't break my arm...
    IF I didn't have asthma..
    IF only I had the right mentors...
    IF I had the right support...
    IF I had a gym membership...
    IF only I had a car...
    IF I only had time …
    IF conditions around me were only different …
    IF I could only get out of debt …
    IF other people would only listen to me …

    "IF I had the courage to see myself as I really am, I would find out what is Wrong With Me, And Correct It, then I might have a chance to profit by my mistakes and learn something from the experience of others, for I know that there is something WRONG with me, or I would now be where I WOULD HAVE BEEN IF I had spent more time analyzing my weaknesses, and less time building alibis to cover them." - Napoleon Hill

    The Winner
    "I decided to be a great runner
    Determined to win every race
    To bask in the glory to tell all my story
    To make sure the world knew my face.

    For years I had dreamt of the conquest
    gold medals and fortune and fame
    So I gave up my leisure
    I sacrificed pleasure
    And worked every day at my game.

    There were time that I wanted to give up
    For the work didn't seem like a friend
    Yet each day I grew stronger
    ran faster and longer
    Efforts more than just means to an end.

    So a contest at length I would enter
    And show everybody my pace
    I worked for this day
    Paid the price all the way
    I would settle for none but first place.

    As the gun went off and we started
    I quickly shot out in the lead
    Ahead of the pack
    all the runners way back
    Only one seem to keep at my speed.

    Then I noticed that one was now gaining
    Then he passed me with effortless stride
    But try as I might
    To put up a fight
    I was losing the race, and my pride

    Then to my amazement he stumbled.
    Went down in the dirt, hard and fast
    With number one out,
    There wasn't a doubt
    This was my race to win now, at last

    Without thinking I picked up my brother
    And he shouted "go on now you've won"
    But Hobbling and holding
    Despite all his scolding
    We finished together our run.

    Now I know many think that I am crazy
    For I gave up a race that was mine
    See, many went past
    In fact, we came in dead last
    But years later, don't worry I'm fine

    For I have learned that the mark of a winner
    Is not if you come in first place
    But how many you aid
    And the price you paid
    To helping others who run in the race"

    "I am thankful for…

    The taxes I pay because it means that I’m employed.

    The clothes that fit a little too snug because it means I have enough to eat.

    My shadow who watches me work because it means I am out in the sunshine.

    A lawn that has to be mowed, windows that have to be washed and gutters that need fixing because it means I have a home.

    The spot I find at the far end of the parking lot because it means I am capable of walking.

    All the complaining I hear about our government because it means we have freedom of speech.

    That lady behind me in church who sings off key because it means that I can hear.

    The huge piles of laundry and ironing because it mans my loved ones are nearby.

    The alarm that goes off in the early morning hours because it means that I am alive."

    This is fantastic! I only skimmed through because I'm at work taking a short break, but I saw a few things I definitely needed to hear or be reminded of today. Thank you for taking the time to do this.

    Once upon a time, there was a young man 20 years old who wanted to know what it would feel like to be a great father. One day eating lunch at a diner he saw a waitress, he fell in love with her, he knew it instantly, she was the ONE. Fast forward. On his death bed, 89 years old, he was so grateful he got to see Aimy everyday, she smiled at him when she served him lunch. He had only 2 regrets, he never asked Aimy out on a date, and he never felt what it was like to be a great father. The end.

    "My dreams are worthless, my plans are dust, my goals are impossible.
    All are of no value unless they are followed by action. I will act now.

    I will act now. I will act now. Henceforth, I will repeat these words again
    and again each day until the words become as much a habit as my
    breathing and the actions which follow become as instinctive as the
    blinking of my eyelids."

    "I will laud my enemies and they will become my friends; I will encourage
    my friends and they will become my brothers. Always will I dig for
    reasons to applaud; never will I scratch for excuses to gossip.

    I will love all manners of men for each has qualities to be admired even
    though they be hidden.

    But how will I react to the adversity of others? With love. For just as love
    is my weapon to open the hearts of men, love is also my shield to repulse
    the arrows of hate and the spears of anger."- Og Mandino

    sad but true Actually I think this is my forth time trying to plant that tree, it better bloody stay planted this time!! The trick is YOU and ONLY YOU got to focus all you energy on to it, and make it my number 1 priority daily. The first thing you think about when YOU GET OUT of bed, ( Mind my own business first or others will employ you to mind theirs) and the last thing you think about before sleep.
