Quote of the Week - James


"When you have to make a choice and don't make it, that is in itself a choice." 
- William James

It's true - no choice is a choice.

But you don't want to let choice pass you by.  Sometimes that's a very dangerous plan.

Quote of the Week - James

 

"Beyond the very extreme of fatigue and distress, we may find amounts of ease and power we never dreamed ourselves to own; sources of strength never taxed at all because we never pushed through the obstruction."

- William James

What do you think?  It's a new year.  Wanna push through?
