Belief consists in accepting the affirmations of the soul; Unbelief, in denying them.

Expand on it

Take what works for you and expand on it. Build on the small successes and you’ll soon be enjoying big successes.

A small accomplishment many not seem like much. Its value, however, goes far beyond the accomplishment itself.

For even a small accomplishment teaches you how to create positive value. And that’s a skill that can be expanded almost without limit.

A small accomplishment demonstrates without a doubt that you can do it, and puts momentum on your side. Take the opportunity to build on that momentum, and it soon becomes a powerful, compelling force.

Whatever your situation is, whatever you may be doing, there’s something about it that has positive value, something about it that works. Take that positive value and build on it.

Where others may see nothing but problems, take the one, tiny positive aspect and expand on it. That’s how real and lasting success is built.

— Ralph Marston
