Let's close chapter nine with a pinch of practicality, shall we? On page 116, Candace offers great advice when she says...
Start to notice the positive, inspiring, or empowering quotes around you and jot them down. You may hear them from people or read them in your favorite book. The quotes make great pick-me-ups when you place them around the house.
- Put one in your wallet that you'll see when you're paying for groceries.
- Put a few on the fridge that you'll read when you're busy cooking.
- Put one on the dashboard of your car to meditate on before you drive.
Encouraging quotes can be packed with power to feed your mind and strengthen your resolve.
Thousands of quotes can be found online, or you can munch on a few from the "Candy Dish" found at the end of each chapter. Here's one to get you started:
A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty. --Winston ChurchhillSet aside some time to pray, to read the Bible, and to listen to God speaking to you.
