Oct 3-9 ~ QUOTE OF THE WEEK: “So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man’s living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.” – Christopher McCandless

Sep 19–25 ~ QUOTE OF THE WEEK: “We have all heard the saying, ‘Some people go their grave with their music still in them.’ They have had a dream but never did anything to make that dream come true. If you answered the question, “what would the one thing you would like to change”, but have done nothing to change it, start to do something. Break down the change into steps, set time frames for yourself and start taking steps to make that change a reality.” – Catherine Pulsifer

Jul 11-17 ~ QUOTE OF THE WEEK: “Recently, I’ve come to realize; some people have eagle potential, but a chicken mind. They are well equipped to reach maximum levels of success, but they have determined within themselves to stay in a safe place of comfort… The eagle mentality soars high going beyond the call of duty. It does not believe in impossibilities. It defies all reason and logic; taking bold risks without the fear of failure… The eagle realizes if it begins to dive, all it has to do is open its wings and it will fly… The eagle was somewhat sad for the chicken. However, having an eagle’s mentality is to know when to let those who choose to remain in a state of bareness; go… Greatness will take you to places where others do not dare or are not permitted to go. Allow your thoughts to take you to heights of greatness.” – Latrina Johnson
