Watch your thoughts for they become words. | |
Watch your words for they become actions. | |
Watch your actions for they become habits. | |
Watch your habits for they become your character. | |
And watch your character for it becomes your destiny. | |
What we think, we become. | |
My father always said that… and I think I am fine. | |
— British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher | |
[Although I disagreed with Maggie on almost everything she stood for in government, I recognize she was a powerful leader and a true force in politics during the later half of the 20th century. Incidentally, other than the final line, there are multiple other sources for this quote including: Emerson, Gandhi and Lao-Tzu. So, it probably is just a well known expression Maggie’s dad passed on to her. — kmab] | |
