Something inspirational:

“All truly wise thoughts have been thought already, thousands of times; but to make them truly ours, we must think them over again honestly, till they take firm root in our personal experience.”

    1. We have so many thoughts we never subconsciously or consciously think about, that perhaps we should think about.

      I believe those thoughts will eventually become part of our mind set and take firm root in our personal experiences.
