To stay on the path to prosperity, invest at least $2 plus your time into personal growth for every $1 you chance on the lottery. With each dollar spent on the lottery, you receive the one-time, either-or, luck-of-the-draw chance to win or lose -- and then it's over. With every moment spent developing personal growth, you become that much closer to realizing your goals and assuring prosperity. An investment in personal growth is cumulative and always pays off. Bet heavily on you.
