the white girl whom the chiefs runner had told
them lay captive there. They approached the

they gave him little gifts.

Our minds, in the beginning,
are as indefinite as our mus
cles. Uncertain films. With each
motion -and in healthy life the
motion Is constantine muscle
hardens, thickens, becomes a
more reliable tool. Exactly the
same rule applies to the mind.
With each thought-and in
healthy hfe,s thought is as con-
slant as motion-the mind
hardens. deepens, becomes a
more reliable tool.
The muscle was not the re-
suit Of one motion. It was
the result of continual motion.
Some Of the motions were sue
cesSes- were failures
but they all contributed to the
growth Of. the muscle. =
The child did not wait to
know whether it was right be-
fore 1t went ahead. It simply
grabbed. And the unsuccessful
grabs were as important as the
successful grabs. they all con-
tributed to growth.
That's the way muscles are
made. That's the way minds
should be made. Learn how to
make your mind up by making
it UP. DO not Say-"Well, I
don't need to make UP my mind
now-I1l wait until something
really important happens" If
you wait you'll have no mind
to make up when the crisis ar
rtves. Make up your mind now.
Take some definite stand en-
each subject, each experience
that presents itself, however
small. Decided Maybe you'll
decide wrong. Maybe you'll wish
you hadn't. But decide. never
theless. For that is the only.
way to acquire the power of
decision, And no matter how
costly your blunder, it is better
than spending your life in the
he'll Of indecision.
