Today I will make a difference.
I will begin by
controlling my thoughts.
A person is the product
of his thoughts.
I want to be happy and hopeful.
Therefore,
I will have thoughts
that are happy and hopeful.
I refuse to be victimized
by my circumstances.
I will not let petty inconveniences
such as stoplights, long lines, and traffic jams be my masters.
I will avoid negativism and gossip.
Optimism will be my companion,
and victory will be my hallmark.
Today I will make a difference.
I will be grateful for
the twenty-four hours
that are before me.
Time is a precious commodity.
I refuse to allow what
little time I have
to be contaminated by self-pity,
anxiety, or boredom.
I will face this day with the joy
of a child
and the courage of a giant.
I will drink each minute
as though it is my last.
When tomorrow comes,
today will be gone forever.
While it is here,
I will use it for loving and giving.
Today I will make a difference.
Even though my life
is scarred with mistakes,
I refuse to rummage
through my trash heap of failures.
I will admit them.
I will correct them.
I will press on. Victoriously.
No failure is fatal.
It's OK to stumble...
I will get up.
It's OK to fail...
I will rise again.
Today I will make a difference.
I will spend time with those I love.
My spouse,
my children,
my family.
A man can own the world
but be poor
for the lack of love.
A man can own nothing
and yet be wealthy
in relationships.
Today I will spend
at least five minutes
with the significant people
in my world.
Five quality minutes
of talking or hugging
or thanking or listening.
Five undiluted minutes
with my mate,
children,
and friends.
Today I will make
a difference.
It wasn't the reward
that mattered
or the recognition
you might harvest.
It was your
depth
of commitment,
your quality of service,
the product of your devotion --
these were the things
that
counted in life.
When you gave purely,
the honor in
giving,
and that
was honor enough.
--Captain Scott O'Grady
As an actor,
what's interesting
is
what's hidden away
beneath the surface.
You want to be like
a duck on a pond
-
very calm on the surface
but paddling away
like crazy
underneath.
~~ Alexander Skarsgard
Every adversity,
every
failure,
every heartache
carries with it the seed
of an
equal or greater
benefit.
~ Napoleon Hill
For the human
heart
is the mirror of the things
that are near and far;
like the wave
like the wave
that reflects
in its bosom
the flower
the flower
and
the distant star.
~ Alice Cary
In
the effort
to give good
and comforting answers
to the young questioners
to the young questioners
whom we love,
we may very often
arrive at good
and comforting answers
for ourselves.
~ Ruth Goode
- Road To Success -
The road to success is not straight.
There is a CURVE called FAILURE
A LOOP called CONFUSION
SPEED BUMPS called FRIENDS
RED LIGHTS called ENEMIES
CAUTION LIGHTS called FAMILY
You will have FLATS called JOBS
BUT
If you have a SPARE called DETERMINATION
An ENGINE called PERSEVERANCE
INSURANCE called FAITH
A DRIVER called JESUS
YOU WILL MAKE IT TO A PLACE CALLED SUCCESS.

Cola as Ham Marinade
For sweet, juicy ham without the goopy stove-top glaze,
pour a 20-ounce bottle of regular cola
over a 10-pound precooked ham
and roast for 2 1/2 hours at 350° F,
basting every 15 to 20 minutes.
Remove from oven,
cut a hatch diamond pattern into the top,
rub with a tablespoon of dry mustard,
stud the centers of the diamonds with whole cloves,
and pat with 1 cup brown sugar
and 1 1/2 cups bread crumbs.
Return to oven for 35 minutes.
