Beyond Ordinary
Success is only a Thought Away

This book is a defense mechanism in the hands of women whose dreams have been shattered and to men who have fallen short of their objectives. This inspiring anthem is a dream resuscitator.

This book will not only inspire the wounded heart to believe again, but it will also revitalize dreams and aspirations that lie dormant under the rubble of disappointment.

The author provides us with a fountain of truth from which we are able to extract the abundant nuggets of inspirational maxims to aid us in charting our own course to a successful life.

In the least, this wonderful book will help the reader to discover within oneself the resources necessary to catapult an ordinary life from the realm of the mundane into the sphere of the profoundly extraordinary.

Text Excerpts

If you are at a standstill in your finances, it may be that your methodology is out dated. I recently heard a college basketball coach who won the NCAA championship in the sixties talking about his success. Immediately following his championship he experienced a few losing seasons. In fact he continued to have losing seasons. He placed all of the blame on the school for their poor recruiting of better players. The truth of the matter is that this coach was stuck on a method of coaching that once brought him a NCAA championship, but that paralyzed his future progress. If your techniques are not bringing you increase, change them because they will inevitably produce a decrease.

One hundred percent of humanity is on level playing ground unless one is born brain dead. I am not declaring that the rules of life are fair or impartial. On the contrary, people are very partial, and prejudicial, particularly towards people who are physically challenged, people of color, and women. Despite what others think of me, it only matters what I think of me. If I can hear people speak, if I can see the world and people act, I know I can explore, learn and grow by those things. My learning generates my thoughts. People are always learning, but seldom do they convert learning into applied knowledge. …

Everything is trainable! If you don't believe it, I can train you to believe it. Your brain is not a source of knowledge; it collects knowledge. Humans have been known to train and develop their eyesight, sharpen their listening skills, harness their mouth, and even train their voice. But how often have you heard of training your brain? Isn’t it our brain that should train our various faculties? On the contrary, the human brain operates and grows with information received. Can you recall your school years for the sake of illustration? When your first grade teacher gave you a math problem to work out in your head, didn't you experience difficulty until it was written out on the blackboard? The point is, when you saw it written on the blackboard it was easier to pull your fragmented thoughts together to enable you to solve the problem.
