I posted a quote on determination a few days ago, and a comment left by Hazzard at Everybody Loves Your Money reminded me of another quote (thanks for jogging my feeble memory 
. It’s one that I wrote in the card I gave my niece when she graduated from high school. I haven’t seen her in some time – I wonder if it made an impact on her life it did me when I first read it. I hope everyone likes it as much as I do.
“What this power is I cannot say; all I know is that it exists and it becomes available only when a man is in that state of mind in which he knows exactly what he wants and is fully determined not to quit until he finds it.”
- Alexander Graham Bell
