Your circumstances will line up with your words. ... words are like seeds, they have creative power. ... the more you talk about it the more you call it in. ... your words will give life to what you are saying. ... you can change your world by simply changing your words. ... you can use your words to bless your life or curse your life.

Every form has its own meaning. every man creates his meaning and form and goal. why is it so important - what others have done? why does it become sacred by the mere fact of not being your own? why is anyone and everyone right - so long as it's not yourself? why does the number of those others take the place of truth? why is truth made a mere matter of arithmetic - and only of addition at that? why is everything twisted out of all sense to fit everything else? there must be some reason. i don't know. i've never known it. i'd like to understand.

I've done and said a lot of things when i was younger that i don't know if i even understood what i was doing or why i was doing it. there's a lot of compassion in understanding what people go through and even in trying to understand why a person would act the way they do. i was a very reactive person, and i did things that were just really bizarre; i don't think people understood it at all.

Ideas Long Trying
Never use a metaphor, simile, or other figure of speech which you are used to seeing in print. never use a long word where a short one will do. if it is possible to cut a word out always cut it out. never use the passive voice where you can use the active. never use a foreign phrase a scientific word or a jargon word if you can think of an everyday english equivalent. break any of these rules sooner than say anything outright barbarous.

At least three time per day at scheduled times, he had to ask himself the following question: am i being productive or just active? charney captured the essence of this with less-abstract wording: am i inventing things to do to avoid the important? he eliminated all of the activities he used as crutches and began to focus on demonstrating results instead of showing dedication. dedication is often just meaningless work in disguise. be ruthless and cut the fat.
