*The person you are on the outside
can never be more successful than
the person you are on the inside.
Whatever it is you desire for your life,
develop it first within yourself.
You can determine, with no limitations,
the person you are inside.
And as you do, that person comes
to life on the outside as well.
Yes, you could take the outer difficulties
and internalize them.
But then they would soon flow back
out from you and manifest on the outside
as even greater difficulties.
Instead, reach deep within and connect
with the highest positive purpose that is surely there.
Nurture and encourage that purpose
with your thoughts and actions,
no matter what may be going
on in the world outside.
As you do, the best of who you are inside
will begin to appear on the outside.
Your accomplishments will have the power
of purpose behind them,
making them real and lasting.
Cultivate your very best on the inside.
And it will come to life all around you.*
