My mother-in-law gave me a postcard; on it is a picture of a bunny in a green leotard and tutu, along with green ballet slippers in a dance pose.
What amazes me is not the imagination of humans; it's the execution of imagination. The saying "dreams or imagination are nothing without action” is for those who always doubt themselves.
Earl Nightengale had a stern yet very supporting air about him. The way he delivers the message in The Strangest Secret is like getting hit with a bag of feathers.
How could one forget the power of our abilities after reading that?
I love that we get a dose of reality in that our successes and failures don't necessarily come from outside of us; we get to choose what we focus on. One little thing at a time keeps us from being a problem in the world and getting better at the same time.
The dancing bunny is the result of a grown-up who trusted an inner childlike imagination and shared it with the world. How successful is that?
The one-and-only original, Earl Nightingale’s Strangest Secret endorsed by Nightingale Conant.
The Strangest Secret is much more than a wealth-building tool; it is a manifesto for self-actualization and purpose-driven work. In Nightingale’s own words: “The only man who succeeds is the man who is progressively realizing a worthy ideal.”
In this book, Nightingale distills his lifetime of research on human motivation into a simple success formula—the very same one that propelled his own achievement. The Strangest Secret is a practical guide for accelerated prosperity so that you can quickly rise to the top, becoming one of the top 5 percent…
When I used to be a thief, I hung out with people who justified why stealing was okay. Until I almost got caught and sent to jail, I was brutally reminded that there is no easy way out of doing bad things.
However, I couldn't be a thief amongst people striving toward bigger goals while helping others.
I was around people who reflected on how I felt about myself, and the results were always proportional to my efforts and interests.
Simply put, this book is about being around people who know better than I, and have good intentions. Learn and continue giving more than I take, and always stay grateful.
Pain, self-inflicted or not, is a great motivator. The difference is people helping or deserting me as a result of what kind of pain I am in.

Secrets of the Millionaire Mind reveals the missing link between wanting success and achieving it!
Have you ever wondered why some people seem to get rich easily, while others are destined for a life of financial struggle? Is the difference found in their education, intelligence, skills, timing, work habits, contacts, luck, or their choice of jobs, businesses, or investments?
The shocking answer is: None of the above!
In his groundbreaking Secrets of the Millionaire Mind, T. Harv Eker states: "Give me five minutes, and I can predict your financial…
One of the most important sentences in the book reads, “The perfection of moral character consists in this, in passing every day as if it were the last, and in being neither violently excited nor torpid nor playing the hypocrite.”
I couldn't let “yesterday” go. No matter what happened, good or bad, I felt it should be a continuing saga that foretold my future. What a big mistake and waste of time.
It is expected that I will forget this, then circle to destruction, suffer terribly, and only after unbearable misery will I make a change.
Each day is a chance to start anew. Mend your relationship with yourself, then be an example to others without actually trying to. This book has been and will always be a classic of self-improvement wisdom.
Nearly two thousand years after it was written, Meditations remains profoundly relevant for anyone seeking to lead a meaningful life.
Few ancient works have been as influential as the Meditations of Marcus Aurelius, philosopher and emperor of Rome (A.D. 161–180). A series of spiritual exercises filled with wisdom, practical guidance, and profound understanding of human behavior, it remains one of the greatest works of spiritual and ethical reflection ever written. Marcus’s insights and advice—on everything from living in the world to coping with adversity and interacting with others—have made the Meditations required reading for statesmen and philosophers alike, while generations…
