“GETTING OUR HOUSE IN ORDER” – “We become willing to let other people be who they are without having to pass judgment on them. The urgency to take care of things isn’t there anymore.” “[Our Higher Power] is helping us get our house in order.” (It Works, How and Why, p. 58)
WHERE ALL ROADS SHOULD LEAD TO – “At the moment we are trying to put our lives in order. But this is not an end in itself.” Our real purpose is to fit ourselves to be of maximum service to [our H.P.] and the people about us.” (12 & 12, p. 80)
“Success is a journey, not a destination. The doing is often more important than the outcome.” – Arthur Ashe (1943 – 1993) Afro-American Tennis Champion & Social Activist

In what area’s of your life have you noticed that “the journey is more important than the outcome” lately?
The Lion and His Partners :
The goat, the sheep and the cow went into business with the lion. Just as in every company, it was agreed that costs and profits would be divided equally.
It happened that they trapped a deer and held a shareholders meeting in order to apportion it out.
In fact, the lion was most meticulous about dividing the catch into four equal parts. ‘I shall take the first share,’ he said, ‘because it is my right to do so being King of the Forest. I shall also take the second and also the third, because I’m the strongest. Should you lay claim to the rest, then I shall make a meal of you as well!’
