Daily Encouragement

Those who have a mentor in life are truly fortunate. The path of mentor and disciple is one that leads to personal development and growth. Those without a mentor may appear free and unbeholden to anyone, but without a solid standard or model on which to base themselves their lives will be aimless and wandering.

Daily Encouragement

The writer Goethe was an unflagging optimist. How was he able to maintain such optimism? Because he was always active. He did not allow his life to stagnate. He writes: “It is better to do the smallest thing in the world than to hold half an hour to be too small a thing.” Spending thirty minutes a day assiduously challenging some undertaking can completely change our lives.
