In the Spirit of Harold Masters: Two Great Quotes

While catching up with an online prayer group, I read two quotes this morning that really inspired me. They felt like God's Christmas present to me on the day our family is celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ, and I'd like to share them with you, the reader, a present from me to you.

Christ is born! Let us glorify Him!


Everything you desire should be yours: the type of work you want; the relationships you need; the social, mental, and aesthetic stimulation that will make you happy and fulfilled; the money you require for the lifestyle that is appropriate to you; and any requirement that you may (or may not) have for achievement or service to others. If you don't aim for it, you'll never get it at all. To aim for it requires that you know what you want. Richard Koch


Take up one idea. May that one idea your life. Think of it. Dream of it. Live on the idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success. Swami Vivekananda
