Thought

Whatever stage of life you are in, there is always something new to be learned. Education should be a life-long quest. Your confidence in yourself will increase as you develop new skills and talents and have the courage and willingness to share them with others.

Each worthwhile subject you make the effort to learn can benefit you or someone else. With an inquisitive mind, you can gain knowledge, learn how things work, or create something new. Spend your valuable time on things that enrich the human spirit and benefit mankind.

Through other people’s perseverance, inventions and technology have come into the world that has greatly helped the human race. As you choose to help others improve their lives through your efforts, your own happiness and high self-esteem will be elevated.

Scripture

Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.

—Proverbs 3:13

Quote

Happiness cannot come from without. It must come from within. It is not what we see and touch or that which others do for us which makes us happy; it is that which we think and feel and do, first for the other fellow and then for ourselves.

—Helen Keller
