Ward’s Law:
“Murphy was optimistic.”

– Richard Edward Ward

Murphy’s Law

Murphy’s law is an adage or epigram that is typically stated as:

“Anything that can go wrong will go wrong”.

Every human has four endowments; self-awareness, conscience, independent will, and creative imagination.

These give us the ultimate human freedom.

The power to choose, to respond, to change. –Stephen Covey

Many people do not pray because they do not believe in God, or a God, or any God.

But prayer does not require belief in a God.

Praying for someone to overcome misfortune or ill health or to wish them good fortune only requires that you believe that the good you feel in your heart will connect with the good in the hearts of others.

Every moment of your life is infinitely creative and the universe is endlessly bountiful.

Just put forth a clear enough request, and everything your heart truly desires must come to you.

“If you are not early, how can you be on time?”
– Richard Edward Ward

It would seem obvious that if you do not arrive before a meeting is to begin (at least 15 minutes) then you cannot be on time. Seems simple.

This is very important to understand if you are looking for work, and quite important if you want to keep the job you already have.

“Be Practical & Expect Miracles if you just take the first step forward every day.” – Richard Edward Ward

Everything Begins with Just Taking the First Step Forward

Everything begins with just taking the first step forward….every day.

It does not matter how small the first step is.

But it does matter that we do take that first step forward and that we do this every day.

The first step forward today could simply be getting out of bed. Or maybe, you have been thinking about starting a new project, but you haven’t yet written the first word or put the first design to paper.

Just Take the First Step

Just take the first step forward today. Take the first step forward… NOW.

“Be Practical & Expect Miracles if you just take the first step forward every day.” – Richard Edward Ward

“The sacred is in the ordinary…it is to be found in one’s daily life, in one’s neighbors, friends, and family, in one’s own backyard…travel may be a flight from confronting the scared–this lesson can be easily lost. To be looking elsewhere for miracles is to me a sure sign of ignorance that everything is miraculous.”
― Abraham Maslow

Abraham Harold Maslow was an American psychologist who was best known for creating Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, a theory of self-actualization.
