Allowing your mind to think extravagantly will lead you to extravagant dreaming! You know, the kind of dreaming you did when you were a kid, when opportunities were abundant. Your dreams were so big, you knew you had to grow into them.

It takes courage to dream big. But the reality is, the only difference between a dream and reality is ACTION! Unfulfilled dreams are just dreams that were never followed through with action. The danger in these unfulfilled dreams is that they begin to affect your success in other areas of life. They begin to produce a scarcity pattern – a limiting consciousness. This was never supposed to be. We are the only creatures in all of creation with the ability to dream! Dreams lead to action. Action leads to reality.

British terrorist Samantha Lewthwaite has now killed 400 people and uses children to kill for her, it has been claimed.

Squeamish people need not apply.

If you’re up for travel and don’t mind a bit of blood then we may have found the job for you.

Processionary caterpillars travel in long, undulating lines, one creature behind the other.

Do you ever feel like life is spinning out of control? That the harder you try to get ahead the more you just barely get by? If so, maybe it's time for you to think about quitting life -- that elusive thingthat we chase after and strive for -- and, instead, start living.

It can be a difficult distinction to understand, I know, but making the distinction can make all the difference in the world. So if you're tired of suffering through and truly want to live, here are 10 tips to get you started!

Welcome the disagreement. Remember the slogan, "When two partners always agree, one of them is not necessary." If there is some point you haven't thought about, be thankful if it is brought to your attention. Perhaps this disagreement is your opportunity to be corrected before you make a serious mistake.

The account of the cross of Jesus is the most awesome expression of love known to man.

God ordained the death of Jesus on the cross so that all mankind could receive forgiveness of sin, and everlasting life, as originally intended.

Jesus Christ, the Son of God:.

Took upon Himself the sin of all mankind, past, present and future.
Suffered death and separation from the Father.
Shed His blood and took our sins upon His own body, giving us the gift of Eternal Life.
Gave us the gift of the Holy Spirit, and Spiritual gifts that would enable us to walk in holiness and righteousness in Him.

Everyone experiences fear in their life. There are big fears we are very aware of and little ones we may not even realize we have.

I've learned that it's very important to understand what fear is and how it works against us because if we don't, it can keep us from becoming what God created us to be, which means we won't fulfill our purpose in life.

Fear's Evil Scheme
“ God wants us to walk by faith, and Satan wants us to walk by fear. ”

One of the first things successful people realize is the old adage, "if it is to be, it is up to me." That is, for you, the fact that your success and your course is up to you. This doesn't mean that you do it all alone. It simply means that you take responsibility for your life and your career.

Too many people today look at opportunity and figure it is up to someone else to make sure they get it. They look at financial security and hope that the government will make sure they live safely in retirement or in case of disability. They wait and wait, figuring that it is up to someone else. And then the wait is over, and it is too late to do anything. Their life is over and they are filled with regret.
