"I think I'm going to be famous."

Those were the words spoken by Oprah Winfrey when she was talking to Steven Spielberg about putting her name on the poster announcing the movie "Color Purple" in 1985. They didn't put her name on it at the time and now 20 years later she is definitely that...famous.

As a nice gesture however, Quincy Jones, who was also involved with the Color Purple back then, recently had a poster of the Color Purple movie made especially for Oprah and added her name. That was sweet Quincy. :)

Now, not only is her name on the billboard for another production, but she is also a major producer of that production, "Color Purple the Musical" playing on Broadway in New York starting December 1, 2005. Talk about the power of words!! Ms. O is definitely a hot ticket item these days and this experience with the Color Purple has gone full circle for her. I think she went beyond famous if there is such a thing.

If that wasn't a lesson on what you put out (speak) will definitely come to pass I don't know what is!! Now I want to speak some words...I WANT TO GO TO THE OPENING NIGHT IN NEW YORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

One of my favorite motivational speakers, Dr. Wayne Dyer said it best for me. He said our Source is like the ocean. If you come to it with a tablespoon or several eighteen wheeler trucks asking for water, it will give you what you ask for. It does not care because it can give you whatever and still have more. So if we come to Source (God) saying I can't then Source says okay, so be it and you can't. But if we come to Source saying I can, Source's answer is the same, okay then you can. You know that old adage of "So a man thinketh so is he"

With that said, what words are you speaking into action for your life?
