" The strangest secret is you become what you think about " by Earl Nightingale

Think about this quote for a moment. You become a bank clerk because that's what you think about most of the time. You become a doctor because that's what you think most of the time. You become a F1 driver because that's what you think most of the time. We are the product of our own thinking.

So are you going to become a bank clerk or a millionaire ?
