THOUGHT for YOUR WEEK:
Great Minds
By Catherine Pulsifer

We all have great minds. What makes a difference is whether or not we use the full capability of our mind.

As Washington Irving once said,  "Great minds have purposes, others have wishes."

Those who have a "purpose" are active in setting goals and constantly working towards them.

Those who simply "wish", have no specific goals for themselves; they just go day to day allowing someone else to set their direction. Wishing for something occupies the mind but leaves the bank empty.

Use your "great mind", and set goals to achieve your purpose. Wishing is just as ineffective as worrying — neither accomplishes anything. Next time you find yourself wishing for something, remind yourself that wishing won't move you forward, but setting goals and taking action will!
