The Power of Positive Thinking....

Zig Zigler once told a story about when he visited the Washington Monument on a trip to Washington D.C. As he arrived with some friends, he heard a guide announce, "Ladies and gentlemen, there is currently a two-hour wait to ride the elevator to the top of the monument." The guide then paused a moment, smiled, and added, "However, there is no wait should you desire to take the stairs."

The story reveals something about success. In life, there are no elevators to the top. If you want to make it there, you've got to take a long series of steps. How many steps you're willing to take - and how long you're willing to keep climbing - determines how high you will go.

Every worthwhile accomplishment has a price tag attached to it. The question is always whether you are wiling to pay the price to attain it - in hard work, sacrifice, patience, faith, and endurance.

A year from now you may wish you had started today.

Make today your day to shine!
