Your Mental Attitude - Cornerstone

Waste of time is one of the most costly ex­penses on life’s ledger . . .
it can never be reimbursed.

Thousands of people would never have expe­rienced the bitterness and helplessness
of want if they had not first been guilty of WASTE.

There is a constant dissipation of thought and feeling, just as there is of physical energies. Each in turn exacts its heavy toll from us.

Dissipation of thought and feeling proves wasteful and ruinous to the mind and heart
the same process is equally as destructive to health and strength of the body.

As one man puts it: “Dreamy revelries, desul­tory reading, unregulated and scattering thought, plans formed without reason, or never carried out to wise results, are as truly dissipation of the soul as the wildest revelries and indulgences are of the body.”

Waste produces decay, stagnation, barrenness,
unproductivity, lack, ruin, destruction, want.

Wasting time on the job or money from our savings doesn’t make much difference…
both have the same end result.

Squandering or wasting time can never be accurately tabulated for us, but most of us are keenly aware of how destructive it can be and how terrifically costly.

YOU can do something about it by develop­ing the habit of thrift. By substituting thrift for waste, you will have made an extremely valuable forward step.

Cultivate this important thrift habit in all things . . . be saving of your time .. . on the job or off . . . saving of materials and equip­ment . . . on the job or off . . . thrifty with physical energies . . . thrifty with unregulated and scattered thinking. .

It will pay YOU big dividends in all direc­tions to cultivate this all-important habit of being thrifty with your time, energy, thoughts and material possessions. Learn to be careful in avoiding waste or dissipation in the small things and the larger ones will automatically fall into the same pattern.

It is entirely up to YOU during each day to calculate and control WHAT PRICE you want to pay for WASTE. We never fail because we are too thrifty in safeguarding our time, thoughts or physical energies . . . but because we are not thrifty enough.

I like the feel of the 44 better. It feels more comfortable in my hands. My 44 is only a five shot though...I don't like that because you are suppose to take 2 center mass and one to the head. Five shots wont help you much if there are more than one person.

When I did my research to help me decide what I would buy, the 44 was the best listed in kill ratio. The 45 was close behind!

My 45 is a Ruger, it's a little larger than my 44. My 45 is going to be my new carry gun, while the 44 is going to stay in my room for my overnight protection.

You have nothing to worry about MS.B, I loves ya and would never shoot at ya! :P

Thank you Jinxy!
Hugs!!

[Radix]

What are you doing?

[HiJinx]

Good question...

[HiJinx]

What are you doing?

[HopeandGlory]

Mine?

[trussell]

I have my little ankle biter (trixie) She thinks she's meaner than a pit bull.

My next purchase will be a shotgun, but I may have to wait on that for a while. I don't have room for a gun safe, and I'm not sure about having a shotgun out where Cody might get hurt. I also plan on getting a self load kit for loading my own ammo. :) I'm gonna be a regular annie oakley :)

[HopeandGlory]

BRAT Jinxie . . . ;-)

[HiJinx]

Who, me? LOL!

[MS.BEHAVIN]

Good evening Hi Jinx!
I will keep Nana in thought and prayer tomorrow..
Ms.B

[trussell]

Wonderful song Colonel...shall we dance again?

[HopeandGlory]

Yes you . . . Smooch!!!

[HiJinx]

Cody isn't shooting yet, is he?

How about a locking gun case?

A whole lot cheaper than a gun safe, and it provides adequate protection for curious little fingers...available at your local Wally-World, or from dealers online.

[MS.BEHAVIN]

I don;t know why...

but my heart is with the sea tonight...

[HiJinx]

You and me both, Ms. B.

And half our church, as well.

Turns out she's a loved lady...who'd a thunk it, huh?
