\"Yogananda<\/a>
\n\u201cYour success in life does not altogether depend upon natural ability; it also depends upon determination to grasp the opportunity that is presented to you.\u00a0 Opportunities in life come by creation, not by chance.\u00a0 They are either created now, or were created at some time in the recent past, or the distant past, by yourself.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Since you have earned them, use them to the best advantage.\u00a0 You can make your life much more worthwhile now and in the future if you focus your attention upon your immediate needs and then use all available information, as well as your abilities, to fulfill them.\u00a0 You must develop all the powers that God gave you, the unlimited powers that come from innermost forces of your being.\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
