Quote by Jim Rohn

Asking is the beginning of receiving. Make sure you don't go to the ocean with a teaspoon. At least take a bucket so the kids won't laugh at you.

Asking is the beginning of receiving. Make sure you don't go

Summary

This quote emphasizes the importance of asking for what we want in order to receive it. By highlighting the analogy of going to the ocean with a teaspoon, it suggests that we should not limit ourselves or settle for meager outcomes. Instead, we should aim higher and ask for more by using a bucket. This encourages us to have the confidence and courage to ask for what we truly desire, ensuring that we are not left empty-handed or ridiculed by settling for less.

It does not follow because many books are written by persons born in America that there exists an American literature. Books which imitate or represent the thoughts and life of Europe do not constitute an American literature. Before such can exist, an original idea must animate this nation and fresh currents of life must call into life fresh thoughts along the shore.
