Motivation for the week! Francis Bacon

"A wise man will make more opportunities than he finds."
Francis Bacon

That's right, Scouts!  You can't wait for the opportunities to come along.  You have to know what you want, and then go out there and get it!  Do you want to get to Eagle Scout?  Good!  Then start taking the steps NOW to get there.  Don't wait around on your Eagle Project anymore...you still have another month of Summer vacation left...get it done!

See you at the dojo!

Daily motivation! Carlos Castaneda

We either make ourselves happy or miserable. The amount of work is the same.
Carlos Castaneda

I love this!  Success doesn't have to be hard!  If it feels good, gets good results, and no body gets hurt in the process then that's the way to go.  Lot's of times we think if it's easy, then it's too good to be true...not so!  Believe in the good in people!

See you soon,

Daily motivation: Abraham Maslow

"What is life for?  It is for you." --Abraham Maslow

Take life for all it's worth.  Own it!  Do what makes you happy every day.  Do something every day to get one step closer to reaching your dreams.  When we do this, our dreams and goals become not just possible, but inevitable.

See you at the top!

Daily Motivation: words from a Franciscan Benediction

These are some really nice words to think about as you fall asleep.  Words that kind of help keep you humble and determined to reach your goals and make a difference.

"May God bless you with tears to shed for those who suffer from pain, rejection, starvation and war, so that you will reach out your hand to comfort them and change their pain into joy.  Any may God bless you with the foolishness to think that you can make a difference in the world, so that you will do the things which others tell you cannot be done."

--a Franciscan Benediction
