“Just look to those who already possess as you wish to possess or who have already achieved as you wish to achieve and ask yourself whether or not they have some special gift that you don’t have?  If they have more angels than you?  If they’re any more loved than you are now loved? If they have suffered more, worked harder, or waited longer than you?  If I would permit them to be ‘luckier’ or have it easier than you?  And you will see, after careful consideration, that their success depended upon none of these things.  It arrived simply because they expected it to arrive, and then lived their lives accordingly.
