Fourth Law of Motion

"Long ago, Sir Isaac Newton gave us three laws of motion, which were the work of genius. But Sir Isaac's talents didn't extend to investing: He lost a bundle in the South Sea Bubble, explaining later, 'I can calculate the movement of the stars, but not the madness of men.' If he had not been traumatized by this loss, Sir Isaac might well have gone on to discover the Fourth Law of Motion: For investors as a whole, returns decrease as motion increases."

- Warren Buffett

Imagine It ...

Imagine that you're full of energy and enthusiasm, excited and positive about the day ahead. Imagine that you're highly effective, able to achieve whatever you set out to do with confidence and ease.

In your mind's eye, see yourself working with discipline and focus, quickly and easily making the decisions that move your world forward. Visualize yourself as always knowing what to say and do in every situation.

Imagine yourself being the person you've always wanted to be. Imagine living the life you've always dreamed of living.

See it all in rich and colorful detail. Allow yourself to dream, and know, with absolute certainty, that you can have it, you can do it and you can be it.

Make your image of yourself and your life a positive one, and you'll program yourself for real, sustained success. Imagine yourself at your very best, and hold that image firmly in your mind, day after day, moment by moment.

What you're able to imagine, you're able to create and experience. Dare to imagine, and then put your precious time to good use by bringing your imagination to life.

Treasure that is already yours...

Before you seek more, ask yourself this. Are you doing all you can with what you already have?

Gratitude is a powerful and undeniable way to bring more abundance into your life. By making full use of what you have, you're expressing gratitude in a sincere and effective way.

Your life already has richness that you have not yet discovered.

But if you're constantly wanting more, you'll never even realize that richness is there.

This very moment is filled with joys that are waiting to be experienced. This very day is full of beauty that is waiting to be seen and appreciated.

Decide today to discover some new treasure that is already yours. Instead of striving for more, fully accept and celebrate what already is .

Abundance is all around you. See it and it is yours.

Think a new thought….

Think a new thought, and the whole world changes in front of your eyes. Adopt a new perspective, and you enter a new reality.

What seems to be out there is precisely your perception and interpretation of what's out there. And as such, you can truly make it whatever you choose.

At your core is a purpose that provides an endless source of energy. It is new and bright and sparkling in every moment.

Seek to know the truth of that purpose, and notice how it feels so very right. Let it be the lens through which you see all else.

Know where you are coming from, and you will know where to go. Know where to go, and you will be there.

Above and beyond...

A little extra effort can bring your life to a much higher level. Once you've done what must be done, do a little more.

The distance you must travel to get from ordinary to outstanding is not really that far. Yet the benefits of going that extra distance are enormous.

You have something very special and original to give to life. Let the best that you are flow out from you with every effort, in every situation.

There is an abundance to which you're already connected. Do the work and put forth the commitment to fully express that abundance through the outcomes you achieve.

The opportunity to make a difference is one of life's greatest blessings. Seize that opportunity and live it with every breath you take.

Know the magnificent joy that effort can bring, and you'll always be eager for more. Go above and beyond, and you'll find it to be a truly wonderful place.

The goal can be reached

There is a way to reach the goal. You just have to decide you're going to do it. There are challenges, to be sure. Yet you've overcome challenges before and you can do it again. Decide to do it, and make the commitment. Take the necessary actions, over and over again. If you realize your approach isn't working, adjust it and improve it until you begin to make some progress. Then be grateful for what you've learned, and use it to move more quickly ahead. Be sure to choose a goal that is truly yours. Making the goal meaningful is what makes it reachable. Creating anything of value takes a lot of good, hard, solid work. Enjoy the journey and delight in reaching the destination.

Unconditional Love

A story is told about a soldier who was finally coming home after having fought in Vietnam. He called his parents from San Francisco. "Mom and Dad, I'm coming home, but I've a favor to ask. I have a friend I'd like to bring home with me." "Sure," they replied, "we'd love to meet him." "There's something you should know the son continued, "he was hurt pretty badly in the fighting. He stepped on a land mind and lost an arm and a leg. He has nowhere else to go, and I want him to come live with us."

"I'm sorry to hear that, son. Maybe we can help him find somewhere to live."

"No, Mom and Dad, I want him to live with us."

"Son," said the father, "you don't know what you're asking. Someone with such a handicap would be a terrible burden on us. We have our own lives to live, and we can't let something like this interfere with our lives. I think you should just come home and forget about this guy. He'll find a way to live on his own."

At that point, the son hung up the phone. The parents heard nothing more from him. A few days later, however, they received a call from the San Francisco police. Their son had died after falling from a building, they were told. The police believed it was suicide. The grief-stricken parents flew to San Francisco and were taken to the city morgue to identify the body of their son. They recognized him, but to their horror they also discovered something they didn't know, their son had only one arm and one leg.

The parents in this story are like many of us. We find it easy to love those who are good-looking or fun to have around, but we don't like people who inconvenience us or make us feel uncomfortable. We would rather stay away from people who aren't as healthy, beautiful, or smart as we are. Thankfully, there's someone who won't treat us that way. Someone who loves us with an unconditional love that welcomes us into the forever family, regardless of how messed up we are.


Tonight, before you tuck yourself in for the night, say a little prayer that God will give you the strength you need to accept people as they are, and to help us all be more understanding of those who are different from us!!!
