a time to grieve; a time to dance

Have you ever found a glistening coin on the bed of a flowing stream? You point at it but your friend isn't quite able to see it. Or maybe your friend is pointing at something at a short distance and, for all your neck-craning, you can't quite see what it is.

This blog is exactly that. This is me pointing at something that I know is there and hope you'd see, too. Whether it's at a golden mask at the bottom of the well or an eagle soaring high in the sky, I wish you Happy Looking!

Think and grow rich

So I’ve taken to reading Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill. I read half of the first chapter. The very first sentence of chapter one has jumped up at me as something very significant. “Truly, ‘thoughts are things,’ and powerful things at that when mixed with definiteness of purpose, persistence, and a burning desire for their translation into riches…”

This is so clear. The call to think and grow rich is not passive. It’s not to think passively, but the think part is the ideation, acknowledging that thoughts and ideas are actual things, and that the next step is to actively grow rich, by which I feel it means to burn with desire to manifest and actualise into material reality these ideas.

There’s determination, passion, desire. These are the fuel that keeps a man to function as if it is impossible to fail in manifesting his goal.

There are stories I want to manifest into published books. I also want to manifest health in my body. I’ll commit to studying this book at my own pace and see if it will help me manifest goals.
