TODAY’S MESSAGE TO MYSELF:
************************************
It is often within oppressive circumstances that on gathers hope. Hope is the father of achievement. It reinforces
ability, redoubles energy, fortifies existing talent, and increases faith. Remember, life may not always run smoothly.
Sometimes on the road to success we get weary. It is during these trying moments that we must fill our hearts with hope.

Quote of the Day:

“Dream lofty dreams, and as you dream, so shall you become. Your vision is the promise of what you shall one day be;
your ideal is the prophecy of what you shall at last unveil.”

– James Allen
