Most failures could have been converted into successes if someone had held on another minute or made more effort. Napoleon Hill
When you have the potential for success within you, adversity and temporary defeat only help you prepare to reach great heights of success. Without adversity, you would never develop the qualities of reliability, loyalty, humility, and perseverance that are so essential to enduring success. Many people have escaped the jaws of defeat and achieved great victories because they would not allow themselves to fail. When your escape routes are all closed, you will be surprised how quickly you will find the path to success. NHF

Choosing A New Response
Common Fears
by Madisyn Taylor :
Everyone has fears—it is a natural part of being human. Fear can protect us from harm by sending a rush of adrenaline to help us physically deal with potential danger. But there are times when fear may keep us from participating fully in life. Once we realize that fear is a state of mind, we can choose to face our fears, change our minds, and create the life we want to live.

The road to happiness lies in two simple principles: find what it is that interests you and that you can do well, and when you find it put your whole soul into it - every bit of energy and ambition and natural ability you have. -- John Rockefeller

In the driest
whitest stretch
of pain's
infinite desert
I lost my sanity
and found
this rose.

Feeling Jealous
by Madisyn Taylor
Jealousy is a common human feeling and usually stems from a place of lack in our own lives.

The whole world could be choked with thorns:
A lover's heart will stay a rose garden.
The wheel of heaven could wind to a halt:
The world of lovers will go on turning.
Even if every being grew sad, a lover's soul
will still stay fresh, vibrant, light.
- Jalal-ud-Din Rumi
