Interesting Quotes

Ability is what you're capable of doing.
Motivation determines what you do.
Attitude determines how well you do it.
~ Lou Holtz



"Do something every day that you don't want to do;
this is the golden rule for acquiring
the habit of doing your duty without pain."
~Mark Twain


We have found that in doing a "dreaded" task daily the task soon looses its power to cause dread in us and becomes well tamed, simply a part of every day life. Of course, a positive attitude plays a major part in taming any task we don't want to do. In reality, I suppose it is our old nature, our will, we are taming.

Any additional thoughts?

Hi everyone! Here's a thought I keep on the fridge to help us stay focused on what's really important."We can dwell every day on the things that are not working and let them drag us down; or we can thank God for the simple gifts of grace he gives us every day if we have the heart to see them." Have a great week. Love, Starla and Cujo
