Online words of wishdom (Part 1)

The law of cause and effect is a natural law. In physics it is translated to mean, "action and reaction are always equal and opposite." What you give is in direct proportion to what you get. In computer parlance, it is GIGO, "garbage in, garbage out." There is no free lunch anywhere except in a mouse trap.

Life has no bargain counters. Everything has a price which must be paid in one form or another. No man is smart enough to cheat life. It has been tried by the smartest of men without success. You cannot get something for nothing. What a farmer sows is what he reaps.

Life is like a cafeteria. You take your tray, select your food and pay at the other end. You can get anything you want as long as you are willing to pay the price. In a cafeteria, if you wait for people to serve you, you will wait forever. Life is like that too. You make choices and pay the price to succeed. Anyone who desires to go contrary to this natural course of events is on the highway to poverty.

Poverty is a choice. Wealth is also a choice. What determines which you choose, is your thought process followed by positive action. That is what makes the difference.
