There are two quick ways to disaster: taking nobodys advice and taking everybodys advice. Learn to say no to the good so you can say yes to the best. A.P. Goethe says there are three strategies for success: 1) a big waste basket -- you must know what to eliminate; 2) know what to preserve; 3) know when to say no, for developing the power to say no gives us the capacity to say yes. We accomplish things by directing our desires, not by ignoring them. What an immense power you will have over your life when you possess distinct aims. Your words, the tone of your voice, your dress, your very motions change and improve when you begin to live for a reason. Dont be a person who is uncertain about the future and hazy about the present. Stay in the groove without making it a rut. Make something your specialty. Even God, who is God cannot please everyone, so dont you try. You cannot find until you define. To finish the race, stay on the track. I am astonished at the aimlessness of most peoples lives and how easily they delegate the direction of their lives to others. Learn to define yourself, to content yourself with some specific thing and some definite work; dare to be what you really are, and to learn to accept with good grace all that you are not.
