Be Quiet so you can hear yourself think. With all the noise in the world, sometimes it is good to create some peace and quiet so you can listen to the great thought that you have that will help you live your American dream.
Be smart. We’ve all made mistakes and put ourselves into situations that were initially of our own choosing. But later, things spun out of control and bad things happened. This is a story of three boys and a strait jacket and how things went from bad to worse for them. DON”T DO THIS AT HOME.

Think & Grow Rich - The Book
One of the earlier books I cut my teeth on was Napoleon Hill’s classic/bestseller, “Think & Grow Rich”. Amazon sells it now for about $12, but I got it for $2.95 back in 1982. I still keep it on my library bookshelf as a reminder of how I got where I am and just how far I’ve come.
(Can you name the book beneath it? - It is much more recent - 2009 First Edition)
You have to remember, I came from pretty lowly circumstances and at that time I was laying block in the hot Arizona sun for around 10 or 12 bucks an hour. I came home dead tired every afternoon and crashed ‘til supper. I was married (still am) with a one-year-old son and a little girl on the way. There was no retirement, stock options and when it rained, I could not work and did not get paid.
I am not complaining, mind you. Those days of hard work, now keep me grounded and thankful for this wonderful country that allows us to be whatever we decide to be. The sky is truly the limit. The truth of the matter is, we just limit ourselves.
I think that is why I love Positive Mental Attitude books so much. I read as many as I could get my hands on. And they shaped my personal attitude and made me THINK SUCCESS constantly. They allowed me, in spite of my circumstances to dream big.
I don’t care what the roadblock or obstacle, I still think …no, I know I will land on my feet. It is who I am. So my advice for the day; Read good, uplifting books that exude Positive Mental Attitude. You are what you think. So think success.
