Motivational Power Quote

 

Leave No Stone Unturned

"To find what you seek in the road of life,

the best proverb of all is that which say;

Leave no stone unturned."

Edward Bulwer Lytton, English Politician and Playwright

   

As I see it. . . . . . . .

Leave no stone unturned   

As we travel the road of life we may find gold nuggets laying in clear sight. We can easily reach down and pick them up.

As we see the gold nuggets laying on the ground we start to look down for what appears to be the easy picking and we fail to look up and discover the real opportunities.  

Over time we condition our mind and form the habit of looking for what's in plain sight. But the real opportunities are those where we have to do a little digging for and leave no stone unturned in the search for opportunity. 

Anyone can see what's in plain sight. The achievers digs deeper and works harder, longer and leaves no stone unturned in their quest for success.  

If we are going to find the goal nuggets in life we will have be willing dig deep into our resolve to succeed and take massive action to leave no stone unturned in their success journey.   

To leave no stone unturned is looking pass what's obvious and digging for the opportunities.

Here is a gold nugget I found in college, my wife.  She is pointing out the gold nugget that her family found that is on display in Baker City, Oregon.
