The dream inside
+++++++++++++++++++

Inside you is a dream. Inside you lives a vision of life at its absolute best.

The world will tell you your dream is unrealistic, and it probably is. But being realistic is not the purpose of your dream.

The dream inside has great value, no matter what it is. For it is authentic, it embodies your highest ideals, and it will drive you to do amazing things.

Pay heed often to that dream, for it guides you in a positive, fruitful direction. It shows you what really matters, and pushes you to be your best in every situation.

You live in an abundant universe, but the abundance by itself has no meaning. What’s inside you is what makes it all matter.

Feel that warm, persistent richness of the dream that lives inside. Go ahead, let it give energy and positive purpose to all you do.

Feel good by doing good
+++++++++++++++++++

It feels good to do good, to be good. It feels good to help, to make a difference, to shine a bit of positive light into the world.

By simply offering a genuine smile, a friendly word, you can make someone else’s day. It will make your day as well.

You have the power to brighten the world. Use that power, and live in that brighter world.

Honest consideration will tell you it really doesn’t feel so good to push people out of your way. No lasting satisfaction comes from abusing or minimizing others.

There’s something that feels much better than winning at the expense of others. It’s winning in a way that benefits all.

Create positive people, positive feelings, positive experiences everywhere you go. Feel good by actually doing good, and make life better for everyone.

Stay in motion
+++++++++++++++++++

When life is going your way, keep going. When life is not going your way, keep going.

Don’t let yourself be stopped by the pain of failure. Don’t let yourself be stopped by the complacency of success.

Stay in motion, and you can choose your direction. Stay in motion, or you’ll get pushed around by forces outside your control.

It’s not always easy to stay in motion, yet it is always the best choice. Persist, and nothing can keep you down for long.

Build value on top of your victories and build value on top of your defeats. Stay in motion, and everything is an opportunity.

Give yourself the advantage of a powerful and prolonged momentum. Stay in motion, and stay in positive control of the way your life unfolds.
