'You and a friend are walking along the path (.) And as you go along up the path
you happen to pick up something ravishingly beautiful, sparkling, a jewel of
extraordinary antiquity and beauty. You are so astonished to find it (.) You
look at it with great astonishment (. ) You hold it for some time, amazed and
silent. Then you put it very carefully in your inside pocket, button it, and are
almost frightened that you might lose it or that it might lose its sparkling,
shining beauty. And you put your hand outside the pocket that holds it. The
other sees you doing this and sees that your face and your eyes have undergone a
remarkable change. There is a kind of ecstasy, a speechless wonder, a breathless
excitement. When the man asks: 'What is it that you have found and are so
extraordinarily elated by?' you reply in a very soft, gentle voice (it seems so
strange to you to hear your own voice) that you picked up truth. You don't want
to talk about it, your are rather shy; the very talking might destroy it. And
the man who is walking beside you is slightly annoyed that you are not
communicating with him freely, and he says that if you have found the truth,
then let's do down into the valley and organize it so that others will
understand it, so that others will grasp it and perhaps it will help them. You
don't reply, you are sorry that you ever told him about it'.

YOU CAN HAVE WHAT YOU DEEPLY DESIRE
You can do anything in this world you want to do,
but you must want to do it badly enough.
You really can have everything you want, if you go after it.
You have to want it.
The first and most important ingredient of success is desire.
Do you know what you want?
Your desire is the planting of your seed.
Your desire for success must be so strong within you
that it's the very breath of
your life.
It must be your first thought when you wake in the morning,
and your last thought when you go to bed at night.
You can be whatever you make up your mind to be.
Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.
