Goal May Stones

More From Napoleon Hill

When someone is seeking, it happens quite easily that he only sees the thing that he is seeking; that he is unable to find anything, unable to absorb anything, because he is only thinking of the thing he is seeking, because he has a goal, because he is obsessed with his goal. seeking means: to have a goal; but finding means: to be free, to be receptive, to have no goal. you, o worthy one, are perhaps indeed a seeker, for in striving towards your goal, you do not see many things that are under your nose.

A climb-out fight is where you climb a building. you climb fire escapes. you climb to the top of the building. you fight on the roof, and you fight all the way down again.

Recognize that whether you are worthy or not is all a made-up 'story'...nothing has meaning except for the meaning we give it...there's no one who comes around and stamps you 'worthy' or 'unworthy'. you do that. you make it up. you decide it...if you say you're worthy, you are. if you say you're not worthy, you're not. either way you will live into your story.

I have always thought of poems as stepping stones in one's own sense of oneself. every now and again, you write a poem that gives you self-respect and steadies your going a little bit farther out in the stream. at the same time, you have to conjure the next stepping stone because the stream, we hope, keeps flowing.

Courage is required to make an initial thrust toward one's coveted goal, but even greater courage is called for when one stumbles and must make a second effort to achieve. have the determination to make the effort, the single-mindedne ss to work toward a worthy goal, and the courage not only to face the challenges that inevitably come but also to make a second effort, should such be required.

Early on a difficult climb, especially a solo climb, you’re hyper-aware of the abyss pulling at your back, constantly feeling its call, its immense hunger. to resist takes tremendous conscious effort, you don’t dare let your guard down for an instant. the void puts you on edge, makes your movements tentative and clumsy. but as the climb continues, you grow accustomed to the exposure, you get used to rubbing shoulders with doom, you come to believe in the reliability of your hands and feet and head. you learn to trust your self-control.

I don't know when the last time was that steven spielberg or george lucas made a movie with universal, but i can tell you that universal is leading the charge. they're looking at film differently. they're planning ahead in a way that i've never seen a studio do before. they're believing in a relationship between fan and film franchise, in a new way. they're more receptive to an audience, in part because of social media, in a way we've never been allowed.
