Home
Keep at it
What do you have?
Use what is in You
Train yourself
What are you worth
Spiritual failures
We all have ability
Way of success
The happy spirit
How we win
You in you wins
What's the use?
Loose talking
Handicaps
The wrong slant
Facing life as it is
A word of warning
The hitch-hiker
Loyalty
What to do next?
The bell-ringer
The chronic knocker
Be worth more
Three things
Develop resources
Only words
By your words
Into words
Stepping out
Don't break me
Worry destroys
Give your best
Guaranteed?
One more thing

Reason makes the plans. The strong one carries them through. The strong one is your Will. Dream, and then carry out your dreams. Drive yourself to the finish line. The Will-less dreamer is never a success.
 
You have the vision. Make it come to pass. You dream your dream, and then make the dream come true. Cultivate a discontent with everything that is common in you. Compel yourself to improve your mind, and your abilities.

If you have the gift of cooking,
be the best cook in the community.
If you have a gift, no matter what it is,
make that gift stand out until men will admire it.
Then someone will want to pay the price for it.

A young man had an unusual gift for dressing windows.  He had worked in a store for a long time.  He had watched the window dresser and given him suggestions, until, by and by, the window dresser asked that he might become his helper.  It was but a few weeks until the helper became the artist.
The head dresser never told the boss who did the art work (and so received the honor belonging to the young man), but men came from different parts of the city to look at the windows.  There was always a crowd in front of the store.  One day a man came from a distance. 
He asked who dressed the window.  The manager introduced him to the head dresser. The man was disappointed.  He said, "He does not talk like one who could do this kind of work."  The young man had stood by. 
Later he was introduced.  The man said, "Do you dress these windows?" The young fellow said, "I am only the side kick."
"I have this amount of space in my window," the other said, "what would you do with it?"  The young man said,  "If you will come back this afternoon, I will tell you."
He went into his office and drew the plans. When the man came back and looked at it, he said, "I will give you twenty-five hundred dollars a year if you will go back with me."  He till then had been working for fifteen dollars a week.
 
You cannot hide trained genius for ever. Some day it will show up. You cannot hide trained ability. Other people may use you for a time, but you will break the bonds sooner or later like this young man did.  It is in you; pull it out.
 
Sometimes a company may find out too late who was the real artist, and kill the hen who laid them the golden eggs.
I was working in a company where my manager for years took the credits for my work, he was promoted, got raises in salary, and continued to showoff with my feathers.  Till he made a very big blunder which cost the company a lot of money.  Now he blamed me for it, and because of that the working atmosphere went below zero for me, and so I left that company.  Within half a year the manager lost his job, and I was asked to return.  I didn't go back as I found a better position.  After that is was only one more year, and the company was out of business.
 
I mean to say trained genius will be seen, and must be seen, for if a company fails to recognize it, it has a negative effect on them too.
