Lessons to be Learned

When life seems truly bad, we can moan and groan, or we can -- even in the midst of anger, terror, confusion, and pain -- tell ourselves, "There must be a lesson in here someplace!"

--The Portable Life

Life is for learning.

Life is for learning?  Learning what?  You name it.  there's a lot to learn.

--The Portable LIFE 101

Learning is not attained by chance, it must be sought for with ardor and attended to with diligence.
--Abigail Adams

Doing More

Life is for Doing.
"One of the greatest -- and simplest -- tools for learning more and growing more is doing more."

--The Portable Life 101
