Choose Your Future Today


The future is not a place
that you discover tomorrow
but a place that you create
out of the choices you make today.

From Ridicule through Opposition to Obvious!


German Philosopher Schopenhauer paraphrased:

All truth passes through three stages.
First it is ridiculed.
Second it is violently opposed.
Thrid it is accepted as being self-evident.

"New truth," to be recognized at all, has to be declared. This starts the process from ridicule to opposition to acceptance.

Tell me a fact and I'll learn.
