		<description><![CDATA[Andy spoke one of his last lines during a pivotal scene in the movie; "Get busy living, or get busy dying." Whatever condition we find ourselves in, it all boils down to our ability to choose our attitude in the midst of our circumstances. We have to keep our eye on the prize and our vision of the future. It's a simple decision to live, dream and hope or just give up and die a slow painful death. I choose life.]]></description>

Rugged individualism is being threatened by collectivism and a dependency on government programs. Thankfully some believe inthe old school, traditional values that have made our country prosperous.

But it's not just methods and activities that determine our success, it's our philosophy.  Our belief system and how we choose to respond to the challenges of life will ultimately determine our success. Our "why" determines our "how."
