Our Success Is Closer Than We Think


Our Success Is Closer Than We Think

Every situation, properly perceived, becomes an opportunity.
We have to act on them if we're going to be successful.

Distant pastures always look greener than those close at hand,
Real opportunities are right where we are.
We must simply take advantage of them when they appear.
We can start where we are at any time.

Success is all around us.
It's not in our environment, it's not in luck or chance,
Or in the help of others.
Success is in us alone.

We don't need more strength or more ability or greater opportunity.
What we need is to use what we have.
Learn to seize good fortune, for it is always around us.

We must go to success, it doesn't come to us.
Open our own doors to opportunity.

While



While
While there is famine in the land
Listen to my heart crying alone
While a man raising war
Scatter much affection as an antidote
While viewing social injustice
'll Be sharing happiness
While poverty is a trivial subject
Reach out to charity
While a sense be excluded
I'll be at the mercy of a pain incurable
While there is fanaticism eroded
Explain that God is malleable
While there are beings of good heart
I will delight with the possibility of change
While the man believe in the divinity of creation
I'll be happy because there is still hope.

This I Believe - This I Trust ...


I was once told that as time goes by
Everything changes with no reason why
Explanations we won't receive
We're just told we must believe
The Lord has a plan for each of us
This I Believe - This I Trust

Doctor - Lawyer - Teacher - Wife
Lord what's your plan for my life?
Explanations I don't expect
Just some guidance down the right track
Show me Lord your plan for me
I ask this of you while on my knees
Praying to you helps me to see
The wonderful plan you have for me
The Lord has a plan for each of us
This I Believe - This I Trust ...
