“Private Victory precedes Public Victory. Algebra comes before calculus.”
~ Stephen R. Covey
from “The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People”
In his “Seven Habits,” Covey makes the brilliant point that PRIVATE victory comes BEFORE public victory.
Simply: if we want all the joys of outward success, first we must master ourselves.
Quite simple.
Don’t start by chasing outward success.
Let the public acclaim flow OUT OF our own self-mastery.

As electricity is a great power in the world, so the inner mind is the greatest power available to you. Neither operates independently; both depend upon a separate agency to ignite them to action, and both bring helpful or harmful results according to the wisdom or ignorance with which they are directed.
~ Roger McDonald
