Quote of the day: Monday

“If one asks for success and prepares for failure, he will get the situation he has prepared for.”

Florence Scovel Shinn

.

I had always believed that one should hope for the best but be prepared for the worst. Then I read this line in the “The Game of Life” and I started to question my “cautious optimism”. Let me just say that living by faith is proving to be a challenge after years of always believing that I only had myself to count on. When I do get it right though, it is so liberating.

Quote of the day: Thursday

“If your dream only includes you, it’s too small.”

Ava DuVernay

To me, this quote also speaks to fulfilling your purpose. Dream so big that you can’t help but touch peoples lives in a positive way. If you want to be rich, become rich by adding value to people’s lives as an example.

Have a fantastic Thursday!
