That stream<br />gradually turned into a river. That river,<br />slowly and methodically carved out what would<br />come to be known as the Grand Canyon.</p><p> </p><p>All from a few <em>drops of water</em>.<br />On one of my trips to Las Vegas I<br />decided to take a plane tour of the Grand<br />Canyon. As I sat there on the plane I thought<br />about how the Grand Canyon began.</p><p> </p><p>Just a stream flowing down a mountain – if I<br />had been there at the beginning and someone<br />told me that one day where I stood there<br />would be one of the great wonders of the<br />world, and that it would be created by this<br />small stream and a few <span>drops of water</span> I would have called that person crazy.<br /><strong>Yet the Grand Canyon exists today.</strong></p><p> </p><p>Your actions are the water that carves your<br />future business. What you’re doing now may<br />seem small, a few leads here, and introducing<br />a few people to your business there, but make<br />no mistake you’re laying the foundation for<br />something Grand.</p><p>Like the ever flowing drops of waters of the Colorado<br />River which hold the power to carve through<br />rock to create its path, your actions will<br />carry you through any obstacle to your goal.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Make note that Colorado River never stops to<br />think about the task, the drops of water simply flows.<br />So too should your actions and desires. Have<br />faith in them. Keep them flowing constantly<br />and there is no obstacle too Grand.</p><p> </p><p>Timothy Eller</p><p> </p><h3>Start Your Drops Of Water With A Free Membership</h3><p> </p><div id="attachment_560" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="http://universityofinternetscience.com/?rid=5812"><img class="size-full wp-image-560" alt="Lay Your Drops Of Water With UOIS" src="http://www.empowernetwork.com/timothyeller/files/2013/08/uois1.png" width="665" height="431" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Lay Your Drops Of Water With UOIS</p></div><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><h2>Look Below At How Small Drops Of Water Over The Years Turned Into Waves Of Success For Michelangelo!</h2><p> </p><div id="attachment_559" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="http://www.empowernetwork.com/almostasecret.php?id=timothyeller"><img class="size-full wp-image-559" title="Drops Of Water To Success" alt="Drops Of Water To Success" src="http://www.empowernetwork.com/timothyeller/files/2013/08/ma.png" width="486" height="351" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text"><a href="http://www.badassbutton.com/2c29ffcb3a56445c8c01594eeb1d39f9" target="_blank">Drops Of Water To Success</a></p></div></div>Serena Williams Wins Her Fifth US Open Title.https://syndicationexpress.ning.com/profiles/blogs/serena-williams-wins-her-fifth-us-open-title2013-09-09T23:16:25.000Z2013-09-09T23:16:25.000ZSandra J Falaganhttps://syndicationexpress.ning.com/members/SandraJFalagan<div><p>Facing her only test of the past two weeks, the No. 1-seeded Serena Williams overcame No. 2 Victoria Azarenka 7-5, 6-7 (6), 6-1 on Sunday for a fifth championship at Flushing Meadows and second in a row with her fifth US<br /> Open Championship.</p><p>Serena Williams is Number One for giving everything she has on the court. She is also Number One among professional female tennis professionals. She hold 17 major titles.</p><p>She believes she can win and believes she deserves to win each time she faces an opponent.</p><p>She has said:</p><p>“Fear will hold U back. Champions fear nothing. Only fear God and give Him glory. Fear no man (woman). Use those legs. God gave them to you for a reason. Put your gifts to work. Take the ball on the rise. Attack the short ball—<br /> it’s waiting for you. Show no emotion. U R black and u can endure anything. Endure. Persevere. Stand tall.”</p><p>Consider what has happened in 2012:</p><p>Williams won the Wimbledon title and Olympic singles and doubles gold medals in a span of five weeks.</p><p>"I've got one number for you," said ESPN tennis analyst Brad Gilbert. "Seventeen. That's all you need to know."</p><p>He's right.</p><p>That was the number of games Williams dropped in six matches in London, a ludicrously low number.</p><p>Serena Williams was unstoppable during the Olympic tournament.</p><p>That's an average of a 6-1, 6-2 victory -- against the best players in the world, motivated by a rare opportunity for an Olympic medal.</p><p>Williams squashed world No. 1 Victoria Azarenka by that average score 6-1, 6-2, then smoked No. 3 and French Open champion Maria Sharapova 6-0, 6-1 in a 63-minute final. Sharapova would have been the WTA's top-ranked player had she won.</p><p>"I don't know what that says about her -- or her competitors," Gilbert mused. "To see someone rip through people like that on a surface where it's harder to beat people … she made the last two opponents look like they were nonexistent."</p></div>
