Dear Wealthy Affiliate members, sports fans, basketball stars, team coaches!

A Gift left from a Basketball Player & Coach.

Here's a spot of inspiration to keep you going this month of October 2020 as we're moving into the 'busy season!'

While the world is changing, quotable quotes of inspiration stands the test of time and these words by John Wooden, basketball player and coach, who lived just about a hundred years from 1910 to 2010, are of such quality ---- here they are by adaptation:

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

A. Making the Most of YOU ! ! !

B. Be true to yourself.

C. Make each day your Masterpiece.

D. Help others.

    E. Drink deeply from good books.

    F Make friendship a fine art.

    G. Build shelter for those rainy, stormy days.

    H. Give Thanks for your Blessings every day.

    J. *Meditate for peace from within YOU and allow it to radiate outwards to the world.

    ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~


    Interestingly, Coach Wooden stated his definition of success in 1934 as β€œSuccess is (surely) peace of mind which is a direct result of self-satisfaction in knowing you made the effort to do the best ... you are capable."

    Yes, absolutely, I agree with his words here!

    and I'd like to add my own personal spin on it ----

    Do and Be the Best you Can Do and Be, each and every day for a life well-lived!

    John Wooden's words were found during my review of the destiny manual and i thought they were a literary treasure trove of a super share for all to see and to reflect upon.

    Perhaps his words (adapted) would be of inspiration for someone, somewhere, sometime in this world today.


    *(note: for first time readers of my blogs, the destiny workshop manual was uncovered from the unpacking from a recent 'flood-out' out of home.... and some transformational material can be found and is being shared with you wonderful folks around the world -- thank you!).


    Enjoy a wonderful, insightful, productive day!

    Hope you feel motivated to get your tasks completed in working on your goals to Success!
