“When defeat comes, accept it as a signal that your plans are not sound, rebuild those plans, and set sail once more toward your coveted goal.†~Napoleon Hill
Wake Up and Work

Some people dream about success. Others wake up and work hard at it.
Time Takes Time
|
Our “get everything quick” society causes many of us to grow impatient when things don’t happen as quickly as we would like.

The Human Capacity

So true. P.E.A.C.E. Jay@EagleLaunch.com Romans 8:18, “I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.”
