The Art of Living - Achievement

Wilferd Peterson's The Art of Living expresses life perspective. I share some of his thoughts.

"You hold in your hand the camel's-hair brush of a painter of Life. You stand before the vast white canvas of Time. The paints are your thoughts, emotions and acts."

"You select the colors of your acts; cold or warm, fearful or daring, small or big."

"You visualize yourself as the man you want to be."

"Each moment of your life is a brush stroke in the painting of your growing career."

"These are the lights and shadows that make your life deep and strong."

"The art of achievement is the art of making life - your life - a masterpiece."

I suspect this latter passage was Coach Wooden's inspiration for his quote, "make every day your masterpiece."
