"Welcome every morning with a smile. Look on the new day as another special gift from the Creator. Another golden opportunity to complete what you were unable to finish yesterday. Be a self-starter. Let your first hour set the theme of success and positive action that is certain to echo through your entire day. Today will never happen again. Don’t waste it with a false start or no start at all. You were not born to fail."
—Og Mandino (1923-1996), American motivational author

Desire Leads to Success
*******************
"When he was still a boy, Og Mandino’s mother dropped dead in
their kitchen right in front of him. Og passed on college to join the
Army and became a bombardier pilot. After the war, he married and
had a daughter. He had trouble paying the bills with a young family,
sold insurance, and became an alcoholic. He destroyed his marriage,
traveled the country, and couldn’t hold down a job.
With his last thirty dollars in hand, he contemplated buying a
handgun in a Cleveland pawnshop he had passed and taking his own
life. Instead, he walked on and wound up in a local library. He sat
down and began reading self-help books and decided at that moment
to change his life.
He went to work as a salesman for W. Clement Stone, the author
of one of the self-help books he had read. He quickly rose through the
ranks and began writing for the company. Og’s mother had always told
him that he would be a great writer; this remained in his mind for many
years. Years later, Og began working as the editor for W. Clement Stone’s
new self-help magazine, Success Unlimited. The rest is known history. Og
penned a small book, The Greatest Salesman in the World, which went on
to sell many millions of copies in many languages.
Og became the most-read self-help author in the world. He penned
twenty-two books and has sold nearly forty million copies. His books
are easy to read and will motivate one to improve his life. I have read all
of his books. Unfortunately, Og passed away in the 1990s.
Og proves to us that success brews within each of us, that we can
turn on that intense-desire button when we are prepared to get serious
and stick with it. Og was convinced that he could be a great writer
one day because his mother realized that her son had a special talent
and made sure that thought was etched into Og’s mind. Later in life,
knowing he had a talent, Og came up with a very unique type of book
to communicate his self-help messages to the reader. When he was ready
to press his own intense-desire button, there was no stopping him"
