Men Day 8, Sunday January 17th

"If I have lost confidence in myself, I have the Universe against me."
Ralph Waldo Emerson

In college I wrote my senior thesis on Emerson. He is the most frequently quoted American author and for good reason. I never found a statement of Emerson's to NOT stand the test of experience, including the one above. Be confident and stay the course... soon the Universe will stop being your "enemy" and will instead conform to your demands.
