Diamond’s Laws to Live By #27:
Mind is the creator of everything. You should guide it to create only GOOD. If you cling to a certain thought with dynamic will power, it finally assumes a tangible outward form. When you are able to employ your will always for constructive purposes, you become THE CONTROLLER OF YOUR DESTINY. (Paramahansa Yoganada, founder of the Self Realization Fellowship and Indian Yogi.)

Success depends on positive thoughts, visualization, practice and will power. I developed a great hook shot this way.

Success is how high you bounce after you hit bottom. (General George Patton, U.S. Army.)

Failure is only temporary. You never fail if you refuse to accept failure.

It’s hard to detect good luck, because it looks so much like something you have earned. (Fred A. Clark)

Success depends on determination.

Set goals, a little one at first, accomplish that goal, and set another. This way you build a ladder to a successful life.

Associate with healthy prosperous people who do not fear sickness or failure.

That which you fear most will come unto you. (Jesus of Nazareth, preacher and teacher.) This means if you think negative thoughts you will draw negative conditions to your life. Fear is mental poison.

Good friendship is like good wine. You must taste many to find a few.
