 "No one can tell you what is right for you except yourself. So start telling yourself what to do. If you blunder for ten years while thinking for yourself, that is rich treasure when compared with living these ten years under the mental domination of another."

~ Vernon Howard from The Power of Your Supermind

Ahhh…

The process of learning to trust ourselves. Emerson speaks volumes on it (have you read “Self-Reliance” yet? Get the free copy on the site and get on it!) along with all the other greats.

If you blunder for ten years while thinking for yourself, that is rich treasure when compared with living these ten years under the mental domination of another.

Be willing to blunder under your OWN guidance and rest in the knowing that you’re power is growing.
