What if it were perfectly certain that the quality of life and fortune of each of us would some day depend upon our winning or losing a game of chess. Do you not think that we should all consider it to be our primary duty to learn at least the names of the pieces and how to position them on the chessboard in order to win? Yet it is a plain and simple truth that the life, the fortune , and the happiness of each of us depends upon our knowing something of the rules of a game more difficult, far more interesting and much more exciting than chess that is the game of life.
Life is a game that has been played for untold ages each of us is one of the two players in a game of his or her own. Imagine the chessboard is our world, the pieces are the phenomena of the universe, and the rules of the game are what we call the laws of mature. Now, the player on the other side or our opponent is hidden from us. We realize that our opponents play is always fair, just and patient. But also we learn, to our cost, that he never overlooks a mistake or makes the smallest allowance for ignorance. Our opponent cannot favor anyone, but everyone has the same opportunity to win of we plan and take action.
To the person who plays well; the highest levels of success are theirs and the awards are paid with an overflowing generosity with which the strong show delight in strength. And one who does not learn the laws and plays poorly is checkmated with haste but without any remorse.
Those of us who take honors in nature’s university, who learn the laws that govern men, women and things and obey them, Become the great and successful people in this world. While the masses of humankind are the average who go through life wanting of some one else to bring them happiness and never learn how important knowing the rules of life is.
It is a plain and simple truth that the life, the fortune and the happiness of each of us depends on our knowing something of the rules of this game. It is a game that our Creator allows us to play just once. And there is no second chance should we play poorly.
It is become so very important that we learn and know the rules that will ultimately determine our success. Not just to know the rules that will ultimately determine our success. Not just to know their meanings and what they do, but to make these principles a part of our everyday life that will lead us to do the right thing automatically, regardless of the circumstances. Then we will know that we need not wait for some distant opportunity to arrive. We will seek it, know it, and claim it! Those who wait can make no greater mistake. For no man or woman can become successful without enriching and empowering the lives of others: anyone who adds to prosperity must prosper in return.
"It is literally true that you can succeed best and quickest by helping others to succeed"
