"If there is no struggle, there is no progress"--Frederick Douglass

Paraphased from the three Hebrew boys...

"Even if God doesn't deliver me, he's still in the business of delivering."

Always said by me...

"Survival of the fittest.. do what you have to do to be alright with yourself."

Don't believe anything you hear and only half of what you see.

God doesn't make mistakes.

You reap what you sow.

A few weeks ago I attended a conference (for work) the opening speaker was a motivational speaker out of Atlanta. He was excellent - his name was Earl Suttle. These were some quotes I wrote down from his presentation some may be his and some may be from other souces...but they were worth writing. They were job related but you can apply them to life too.

1. Learn to do more than what you are paid for - you will eventually get paid for more than what you do.

2. If you want to be happy...
for an hour...take a nap.
for a day...spend it doing something you like to do.
for a week...take a vacation.
for a month...get married.
for a year...win the lottery.
for a life...enjoy what you do.

3. To be successful/happy learn to work harder on yourself than your job.

4. Working hard on your job you can earn a pretty good living - work harder on self and earn a fortune.

5. There is pain with change and there is pain with remaining the same....choose the one that moves you forward.

6. Do you get up and say..."Good morning Lord." or do you say..."Good Lord!..it's Morning!" ????? http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

One of my favorites..."Don't tell God about your big problems, tell your problems about your big God."

I am going to state this just like my papa says it....
"The Fervent Prayer of a Righteous Man Availeth Much" In the words of my Preacher, and Grandfather.... God Bless Him

"Love is, what it is, when it is"

"Every good-bye ain't gone and every shut eye ain't sleep"

"An issue today is tissue tomorrow"

One of my all time faves is...

If I needed to deal with this sh*t... I'd have been born with a shovel in my hand.

**What I derive from it**
Don't send yourself through unnecessary ails (and don't allow anyone else to). Come out of the muck and mire of life, because you don't have to spend your time there...
