One reason so few of us achieve what we truly want is that we never direct our focus; we never concentrate our power. Most people dabble their way through life, never deciding to master anything in particular.
Anthony Robbins
If you want to succeed you should strike out on new paths, rather than travel the worn paths of accepted success.

Cory Daniel (The Phoenix Enigma)
There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, learning from failure.
Colin Powell
Success seems to be connected with action. Successful people keep moving. They make mistakes, but they don't quit.

Benjamin F. Fairless
Eighty percent of success is showing up.
Woody Allen
I cannot give you the formula for success, but I can give you the formula for failure—which is: Try to please everybody.

When you have a good idea and you've tried it and know it's going to work, go ahead and do it—because it is much easier to apologize later than to get permission.
Grace Hopper
The secret of success is learning how to use pain and pleasure instead of having pain and pleasure use you. If you do that, you're in control of your life. If you don't, life controls you.

If you want to be successful, find someone who has achieved the results you want and copy what they do and you'll achieve the same results.

No one lives long enough to learn everything they need to learn starting from scratch. To be successful, we absolutely, positively have to find people who have already paid the price to learn the things that we need to learn to achieve our goals.
Brian Tracy
It is the greatest of all mistakes to do nothing because you can do only a little. Do what you can.
Sydney Smith

Theodore Roosevelt
Many drops make a bucket, many buckets make a pond, many ponds make a lake, and many lakes make an ocean.

Progress however, of the best kind, is comparatively slow. Great results cannot be achieved at once; and we must be satisfied to advance in life as we walk, step by step.
Samuel Smiles
It is a mistake to look too far ahead. Only one link in the chain of destiny can be handled at a time.

You can chase a butterfly all over the field and never catch it. But if you sit quietly in the grass it will come and sit on your shoulder.
Unknown
When one opportunity door closes and all other opportunity doors appear to be sealed up tight, it's time to break an opportunity window and jump through. Winners find opportunities where others only see obstacles. Ineffectual weaklings sit around waiting for magical opportunity doors to open for them. Winners work for what they want and make it happen. Weaklings wait for what they want and hope it happens.
Duane Alan Hahn
A Really Long CWG Success Quote
You cannot have what you want, but you may experience whatever you have. The very act of wanting something pushes it away from you.
The universe has no choice but to bring you the direct manifestation of your thoughts. The creative power is like a genie in a bottle. Your words are its command. The word "I" is the key that starts the engine of creation. The words "I am" are extremely powerful. They are commands to the universe.
Now, whatever follows the word "I" tends to manifest in physical reality. If you say, "I want success," the universe says, "OK, you do." Therefore "I" + "want success" produces you wanting success. "I" + "want money" must produce you wanting money.
If you repeat a thought or say a word, not once, not twice, but dozens, hundreds, thousands of times, do you have any idea of the creative power of that? A thought or word repeatedly expressed becomes just that, expressed. It becomes outwardly realized. It becomes your physical reality.
You produce most events in your life either willfully or you draw them to you, more or less, subconsciously. Some events, as in major natural disasters, are written off to "fate." Yet even "fate" can be an acronym for "from all thoughts everywhere." The combined thoughts of everyone.
You love the grief, you love the drama. That is, until you don't anymore. There comes a certain point in your evolution when you cease to love the drama, cease to love the "story" as you've been living it. That's when you decide, actively choose, to change it. Only most don't know how. You now do. To change your reality, simply stop thinking like that.
In this case, instead of thinking "I want success," think "I have success," or "my success is coming to me now," or "all things lead to my success."
Affirmations do not work if they are merely statements of what you want to be true. Affirmations work only when they are statements of something you already know to be true.
The best so-called affirmation is a statement of gratitude and appreciation. "Thank you, God, for bringing me success in my life." Now that idea, thought, spoken and acted upon, produces wonderful results, when it comes from true knowing not from an attempt to produce results, but from an awareness that results have already been produced.
If, now, there is something you choose to experience in your life, do not "want" it, choose it. Do you choose success in worldly terms? Do you choose more money? Good. Then choose it. Really. Fully. Not half-heartedly.
God from Conversations with God (Book 1) (#ad) through Neale Donald Walsch (adapted)
Did you know that Trump's rushed experimental rona jab has less than one percent overall benefit? It also has many possible horrible side effects. Some brainwashed rona jab cultists claim that there are no victims of the jab, but person after person will post what the jab did to them, a friend, or a family member on web sites such as Facebook and Twitter and they'll be lucky if they don't get banned soon after. Posting the truth is “misinformation” don't you know. Awakened sheep might turn into lions, so powerful people will do just about anything to keep the sheep from waking up.

Take a look at my page called The H Word and Beyond. You might also want to look at my page called Zinc and Quercetin. My sister and I have been taking those two supplements since summer of 2020 in the hopes that they would scare away the flu and other viruses (or at least make them less severe).
Some people appear to have a mental illness because they have a vitamin B deficiency. For example, the wife of a guy I used to chat with online had severe mood swings which seemed to be caused by food allergies or intolerances. She would became irrational, obnoxious, throw tantrums, and generally act like she had a mental illness. The horrid behavior stopped after she started taking a vitamin B complex. I've been taking Jarrow B-Right (#ad) for many years. It makes me much easier to live with.
Unfermented soy is bad! “When she stopped eating soy, the mental problems went away.” Fermented soy doesn't bother me, but the various versions of unfermented soy (soy flour, soybean oil, and so on) that are used in all kinds of products these days causes a negative mental health reaction in me that a vitamin B complex can't tame. The sinister encroachment of soy has made the careful reading of ingredients a necessity.
If you are overweight, have type II diabetes, or are worried about the condition of your heart, check out the videos by Ken D Berry, William Davis, and Ivor Cummins. It seems that most people should avoid wheat, not just those who have a wheat allergy or celiac disease. Check out these books: Undoctored (#ad), Wheat Belly (#ad), and Eat Rich, Live Long (#ad).
Negative ions are good for us. You might want to avoid positive ion generators and ozone generators. A plain old air cleaner is better than nothing, but one that produces negative ions makes the air in a room fresher and easier for me to breathe. It also helps to brighten my mood.
Never litter. Toss it in the trash or take it home. Do not throw it on the ground. Also remember that good people clean up after themselves at home, out in public, at a campsite and so on. Leave it better than you found it.
Climate Change Cash Grab = Bad
Seems like more people than ever finally care about water, land, and air pollution, but the climate change cash grab scam is designed to put more of your money into the bank accounts of greedy politicians. Those power-hungry schemers try to trick us with bad data and lies about overpopulation while pretending to be caring do-gooders. Trying to eliminate pollution is a good thing, but the carbon footprint of the average law-abiding human right now is actually making the planet greener instead of killing it.
Eliminating farms and ranches, eating bugs, getting locked down in 15-minute cities, owning nothing, using digital currency (with expiration dates) that is tied to your social credit score, and paying higher taxes will not make things better and “save the Earth.” All that stuff is part of an agenda that has nothing to do with making the world a better place for the average person. It's all about control, depopulation, and making things better for the ultra-rich. They just want enough peasants left alive to keep things running smoothly.

Charlie Robinson had some good advice about waking up normies (see the link to the video below). He said instead of verbally unloading or being nasty or acting like a bully, ask the person a question. Being nice and asking a question will help the person actually think about the subject.
