Never seek for some great thing, but improve each small opportunity as it comes to you, and some day you will be surprised to find that the truly great occasion of your life would have been overlooked had you not been keeping track of the small things. Or to put it another way, the person who overlooks a small opportunity will have lost their eyesight when a great one comes. --------------------- Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.
