Think & Grow Rich Thursday: You Are Master of Your Destiny

“You may control your own mind; you have the power to feed it whatever thought impulses you choose.  With this privilege goes also the responsibility of using it constructively.  You are the master of your own earthly destiny just as surely as you have the power to control your own thoughts.  You may influence, direct, and eventually control your own environment, making your life what you want it to be — or you may neglect to exercise the privilege which is yours, to make your life to order, thus casting yourself upon the broad sea of ‘Circumstance,’ where you will be tossed hither and yon, like a chip on the waves of the ocean.”

– Napoleon Hill

Think & Grow Rich Thursdays

“You will never have a definite purpose in life, you will never have self-confidence, you will never have initiative and leadership unless you first create these qualities in your imagination and see yourself in possession of them.

Just as the oak tree develops from the germ that lies in the acorn, and the bird develops from the germ that lies asleep in the egg, so will your material achievements grow out of the organized plans that you create in your imagination.  First comes the thought, then organization of that thought into ideas and plans, then transformation of those plans into reality.  The beginning, as you will observe, is in your imagination.”

— Napoleon Hill
