More from Zig Ziglar & related wisdom
Shallow men believe in luck, believe in circumstances...Strong men believe in cause and effect.
To be independent to my mind does not mean to be isolated, to be the priest or the Levite, but rather to be the good Samaritan. There is no real independence save only as we secure it through the law of service.
A real decision is measured by the fact that you've taken a new action. If there's no action, you haven't truly decided.
We learn wisdom from failure much more than from success. We often discover what will do, by finding out what will not do; and probably he who never made a mistake never made a discovery.
