Stand For What Is Right!


"As your success grows you will soon discover that there are others who would delight in pulling you down from your perch."

Even the most loving and giving among humanity like Jesus, Gandhi, and Lincoln had those who plotted against them. How can we expect any less?

We have learned to protect ourselves from nature, disease and time but not yet against all kinds of evil and selfishness. For you to be successful and helpful to others, you must survive and thrive in a competitive world.

It is your duty to protect and defend what is good, right, and just against those who would do evil. Those who operate with evil and selfish motives will eventually be caught in their own tangled web of lies and deceit.

Don't fight back unless you have to, and when you do, make sure you are fighting by yielding to win. That is, to give up your non-essentials to further your honorable purpose.

Keep your life about truth, honesty, and integrity. Always let your integrity show others the difference between yourself and those without honorable traits.

Make a decision to stand (and fight if necessary) for truth, honesty, integrity, and all that is right.

How to Change Impossible to Possible

"Six simple questions that will always keep you from getting into any situation that may be over your head."

Do you remember the last time you were presented an opportunity? What was your first thought? Did you think it was possible for you or impossible?

As you aspire to succeed in any endeavor, you must constantly evaluate what can and cannot be done under the circumstances you find yourself and the resources you have available.

Here are six questions to help you evaluate any opportunity you are considering:

- what am I really trying to accomplish?

- why do I think what I want is possible?

- is there anything that makes me think it is impossible?

- what do I stand to gain or lose by going forward with this opportunity?

- will my health have an influence on, or be affected by, the outcome?

- would my time, money and energy be better utilized elsewhere?


Your life’s journey will not always take you where you think it will. The road you travel, and the destinations you reach are determined by the choices you make. You must learn to accept this reality and always be ready and willing to adapt to situations that arise.

You may not achieve as much success as you could because of doing too little. On the other hand, you may not achieve success because you are trying to do too much. Always keep in mind the above questions when evaluating your course.

Try changing "Im-possible" to "I'm possible" by moving the hyphen (-) and placing it vertically between the I and the M. Do you see it? Do you believe it?

Can We Count On You?

"More than 100,000,000 people, around the world, have been motivated and influenced by this message since the turn of the century."


Have you read the fascinating short story "A Message to Garcia"? If not, I suggest you read it HERE. This short story has taught millions of people some very important values.

Unlike Rowan in the story, the average modern man is unable or unwilling to concentrate on one thing and complete it. How sad!

In our world there is a constant "weeding-out" process going on. No matter if times are good or bad, both employers and customers continually perform a sorting process. The incompetent employees and unworthy retail establishments go by the way side. In our world it is "the survival of the fittest."

Those people who can recognize the goal, and take individual action toward achieving it, are the most valuable assets to families, businesses, customers, and organizations.

Your marketplace, whether it be an employer or customer, is looking for someone who is resourceful, responsible, and reliable. If you have not already, make the decision that you will be a person who can carry a message to Garcia.

Can we count on you?
