Sorry just wanted to make sure I gave it another look and am glad I did.
The quote appears to be in several other books as well. All the books appear to be about business, economics, self help and leadership. One book did say that a man named Richard Pascale had suggested that we are more likely to “act our way into a new way of thinking than to think our way into a new way of acting. Richard Pascale has written several books one was entitled, “The Art of Japanese Management”.
Considering all the different versions on this quote and how it is being used and who is using it I’m thinking perhaps some sort of Asian proverb. Then again it is being used by other authors like Jo Berry and Rebecca Hanson whose beliefs basically surround the 7 laws of the universe and success comes from following in the footsteps of others who have preceded you. This would make sense considering this quote is being used by everyone.
This still leads me to believe self knowledge will not fix me. I could think my way into a better life or I can act my way into better thinking.
God is everything or he is nothing and the Key that has unlocked the door for me is LOVE.
