He should make this purpose the centralizing point ofhis thoughts. It may take the form of a spiritual ideal, or it may be aworldly object, according to his nature at the time being; but whicheverit is, he should steadily focus his thought forces upon the object whichhe has set before him. He should make this purpose his supreme duty, andshould devote himself to its attainment, not allowing his thoughts towander away into ephemeral fancies, longings, and imaginings. This is theroyal road to self-control and true concentration of thought. Even if hefails again and again to accomplish his purpose (as he necessarily mustuntil weakness is overcome), the strength of character gained will be themeasure of his true success, and this will form a new starting point forfuture power and triumph.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22745</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Then the face of night is fair in the dewy downs And the shining daffodil dies. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10975]]></link><description><![CDATA[Then the face of night is fair in the dewy downs And the shining daffodil dies.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10975</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[At the earliest drawings of the fractal curve, few clues to the underlying mathematical structure will be seen. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3956]]></link><description><![CDATA[At the earliest drawings of the fractal curve, few clues to the underlying mathematical structure will be seen.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3956</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only real failure in life is the failure to try. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14903]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only real failure in life is the failure to try.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14903</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Autumn is old; The sere leaves are flying;  He hath gather'd up gold,   And now he ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3558]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Autumn is old; The sere leaves are flying;  He hath gather'd up gold,   And now he is dying;--    Old age, begin sighing!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3558</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Samuel & Henrietta Barnett, Social Reformers, 1913 & 1936  Now the great thing is this: we are ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7727]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Samuel & Henrietta Barnett, Social Reformers, 1913 & 1936  Now the great thing is this: we are consecrated and dedicated to God in order that we may thereafter think, speak, meditate, and do, nothing except to his glory.
