We grow a little every time we do not take advantage of somebody's weakness.
Remember that stress doesn't come from what's going on in your life. It comes from your thoughts about what's going on in your life.
Nothing is given to man on earth - struggle is built into the nature of life, and conflict is possible - the hero is the man who lets no obstacle prevent him from pursuing the values he has chosen.
A hero has faced it all: he need not be undefeated, but he must be undaunted.
We all enjoy pushing ourselves to accomplish our objectives. But we don't need stress to get there.
If you're successful and stressed out, you're succeeding in spite of your stress, not because of it.
We need to distinguish between stress and stimulation. Having deadlines, setting goals, and pushing yourself to perform at capacity are stimulating. Stress is when you're anxious, upset, or frustrated, which dramatically reduce your ability to perform.
Dreams don't have an expiration date.
Some people are aware of everything that is going on everywhere at every moment in their lives.
It's almost as if the way you imagine my dead self says more about you than it says about either the person I was or the whatever I am now.
It is not enough to begin to pray, nor to pray aright; nor is it enough to continue for a time to pray; but we must patiently, believingly, continue in prayer until we obtain an answer; and further we have not only to continue in prayer unto the end, but we have also to believe that God does hear us, and will answer our prayers. Most frequently we fail in not continuing in prayer until the blessing is obtained, and in not expecting the blessing.
