                        Thought and Achievement


Great achievement or attainment...
Are not a thing of favour or chance,
But are the natural result of right thinking and well-directed effort
With for the most part, the strength of the effort
Being the measure of the result.

Those who master their thought-processes.
Think positively, and act on that positiveness...
Cultivate and nurture self-discipline and self-control...
Direct their energies with intelligence...
And place a value on their time - achieve and attain.

To aspire is to achieve - and to love is to attain.

A particular train of thought...
When pursued and persisted upon - will produce results.
By the thoughts we choose and encourage...
We remain, rise, or fall.
Our thoughts, whether life-enhancing or life-negating,
Will for the most part...
Determine who as a person we become and the type of life we live.

Hard life-lessons I've come to know all to well.

Thought allied with great purpose becomes a powerful force.
This self-empowering force, too - is within you.
