The goals you set for yourselfand the strategies you choose become your blueprint or plan. Strategiesare like recipes: choose the right ingredients, mix them in the correctproportions, and you will always produce the same predictable results: inthis case financial success. The success strategies for managing money andbuilding wealth are called Money Strategies.

And his unhappiness increasing in proportion to the elevation of his ethical standards, a man's end is either Buddha or suicide if he knows no God; while if he knows God, it is despair or that conversion which, having sobbed away its tears on the Father's breast, thence derives ever new strength to fight the battle of life, sure of the final victory.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6671</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is not posturing.
