Don't conceive yourself that
you can save nothing on your
present income no matter how
small il may be.
The mind that cannot plan is
incapable of accomplishing,
and employers know full well
that the man who cannot save
on a moderate income is not
the person 10 whom a greater
one should he paid.
Ability will always find "a
way. and ability is what en-
ployers want these days.
Do you ever change your
mind?
The stubborn man seldom
changes his. That is the rea-
son why he is known as a stub
born one instead of as "A sue
cg,Sful one.
Great minds are susceptible
to change upon submission Of
proof. Little ones are unable
TO grasp the proof. and there
fore always remain little, and
in time become stubborn.
When a strong mind changes
il is invariably for the better.
That makes il even stronger. as
the small one becomes smaller.
