"Vision without action is daydreaming; action without vision is a nightmare."
  -Chinese Proverb

A daydream is a like a dream . It happens in your mind but in reality it does not. You put no action into making the dream come true. It just comes and goes. An action without purpose is a nightmare, because  anything could happen. The action could land you in trouble or in something good. Just plan something and act upon it .

"The Difference between a successful person and others is not lack of Strength,  not lack of Knowledge, but rather lack of Will " - Vince Lombardi

There is a variance between a successful person who applies themselves versus someone who do not have knowledge nor strength. You can gain strength through working out. You can gain knowledge through working out. The only thing you have to do is apply yourself or use your self will. Will cannot be forced but rather done on your own choice. You have to choose in your own mind to be successful .

What is granted is often taken for granted- Father Gerry Harley




This means that you have something ,but you forget that you are lucky to have it. For example, a person born with wealth. They make not value the fact that they have money in abundance, and they tend to be nonchalant about it; this is not considering that somebody else maybe poor. The wealthy person may take the possession of money as something that obligated to them. On the other hand, a less fortunate person may find having money as a privilege .

Take the first step in faith.You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step. -Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Taking the first step in faith means that you acting just upon belief. Just because you believe you are acting upon it. Seeing the whole staircase would be seeing the whole image of the picture . You dont need the whole image to draw a spec. So take a step means to begin.

" What Make a good Father/Mother isn't what you leave for your son/daughter ,but what you leave within your son/daughter!" - Micheal Irving


A good parental figure isn't one who is considered good because of the materialistic things they leave behind. A good parental figure is good because of what they instill in their children. Your parent would not be considered to be good because they left you a pair of Jordans, clothes, or money. They would be a good parent if they taught you sentimental things. Eventually the materialistic things perish, but sentimental values last. Like love is forever, and money is temporary.
