More from Benjamin Franklin & related wisdom
I would rather hire a man with enthusiasm, than a man who knows everything.
Strong, deeply rooted desire is the starting point of all achievement. Just as the electron is the last unit of matter discernible to the scientist. DESIRE is the seed of all achievement; the starting place, back of which there is nothing, or at least there is nothing of which we have any knowledge.
The Jews understand that the blessing of wealth was dependent upon obedience to the law and covenant. The laws in the Torah, if followed, would bring blessings. The Tanakh says, "How joyful are those who fear the Lord and delight in obeying his commands—they themselves will be wealthy." (NLT, Psalm 112:1, 3) "If they listen and obey God, they will be blessed with prosperity throughout their lives." (NLT, Job 36:11)
