Steven Covey 37. Weare what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make our world. The BuddhaIf you think you can, or think you cant you are right. Henry Ford Man is what he believes. Anton ChekhovWe will not solve the problems .from the level of thinking we were at when we created them. Albert Einstein 38. Untilone is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness. Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one elementary truth the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too. - Goethe 39.
