Ask Yourself.
Am I hitched up right or am I a
round peg in a square hole?
Do I feel every drop of blood and
every fiber in me tugging away at
my ambition, saying “Amen” to my
work
Am I backing up my chance in
life in every way or am 1 sliding
along the lines of least resistance?
Am 1 keeping myself (it to do the
biggest thing possible to me every
day of my life?
Am I working along the line of
my talent or am 1 getting my living
by my weakness instead of my
strength?
Am 1 strengthening my weak points
making mv strong points stronger,
and eliminating the things which are
keeping me back, the enemies of my
success.
Do 1 decide things quickly, finally,
or am 1 forever on the fence, fearing
to make a decision which 1 can not
reconsider?
Have 1 the initiative which begins
things without being told to; which
does things without waiting for oth
ers’ instructions?
Do 1 dare to attempt the thing I
instinctively know that 1 ought to
do?
Do 1 try to develope that bigger
man back of a smaller man 1 am, by
obeying the God-urge that ever bids
me on?
