Dear Reader,

In detachment lies the wisdom of uncertainty… in the wisdom of uncertainty lies the freedom from our past, from the known, which is the prison of past conditioning.

And in our willingness to step into the unknown, the field of all possibilities, we surrender ourselves to the creative mind that orchestrates the dance of the universe. - The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success by Deepak Chopra.

Or, put another way, what you’ve been doing doesn’t seem to be working. Don’t you think its time to try something new? Something different?  Something out of the ordinary?  Something creative?  Something that at least has the possibility of working?

“It doesn’t matter which side of the fence you get off on sometimes. What matters most is getting off. You cannot make progress without making decisions.”

- Jim Rohn

“Ideas are easy, doing stuff is hard….

“History is littered with inventors who had ‘great’ ideas but kept them quiet and then poorly executed them. And history is lit up with do-ers who took ideas that were floating around in the ether and actually made something happen. In fact, just about every successful venture is based on an unoriginal idea, beautifully executed.”

“Take the obvious, add a cupful of brains, a generous pinch of imagination, a bucketful of courage and daring, stir well and bring to a boil.”

- Bernard Mannes Baruch

Empire:  ”A basic, consensus defintion would be that an empire is a large political body which rules over territories outside its original boraders.”

- Bill Bonner, Empire of Debt.

“You are never given a wish without also being given the power to make it come true.”
