"There is nothing more powerful than an idea whose time has come." Victor Hugo Transformation, of whole societies or families or individuals, is usually the result of a pivotal idea. Some of the ideas whose time has come relate to an entire society or world. "We choose to go to the moon in this decade..." John F. Kennedy. "I have a dream..." Martin Luther King Jr. "Here I stand, I can do no other." Martin Luther. "Whatever you are, be a good one." Abraham Lincoln. "There is nothing so useless as doing efficiently something that should not be done at all." Peter Drucker. Some ideas could be of help to millions of people, but they become especially valuable when they change us personally. A single idea can change our beliefs, attitudes, choices, perceptivities, determination; and therefore, change our life. One of the greatest gifts a person can receive is an idea that, once implemented, makes life markedly better. From this book: "The most important decision anyone ever makes is their choice of truth source." "Humans are the only creature who has the gift of being able to think about their thinking." "Success in life is about training, not about trying." "Perpetual performance is an endless, and needless, burden." This book is a collection of pivotal ideas, that over the course of the last 70 years, have changed the life of the author for the better--starkly for the better. Maybe they would help you as well.
