STOP AND THINK – An intense anticipation itself transforms possibility into reality. (Samuel Smiles, 19th century Scottish author and reformer)

Smiles continues: “Our desires [are] often but precursors of the things which we are capable of performing.” The person who is really “into” his project can almost will it to completion. That doesn’t discredit hard work, but it shows how important it is to be able to have a vision of what you want to accomplish and pursue it with expectancy.

I can do all things through him who strengthens me. (Philippians 4:13)
