The Nice One....

A story tells that two friends were walking through the desert During some point of the Journey they had an Argument, and one friend Slapped the other one In the face.

The one who got slapped was hurt, but without saying anything, wrote in the sand:
''TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SLAPPED ME IN THE FACE"
They kept on walking until they found an oasis, where they decided to take a bath.
The one who had been slapped got stuck in the mire and started drowning, but the friend saved him. After he recovered from the near drowning, he wrote on a stone:
"TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SAVED MY LIFE"

The friend who had slapped and saved his best friend asked him, "After I hurt you, you wrote in the sand and now, you write on a stone, why?"

The other friend replied "When someone hurts us we should write it down in sand where winds of forgiveness can erase it away. But, when someone does something good for us, we must engrave it in stone where no wind can ever erase it."
LEARN TO WRITE YOUR HURTS IN THE SAND AND TO CARVE YOUR BENEFITS IN STONE.
They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them, but then an entire life to forget them.

Do not value the THINGS you have in your life. But value WHO you have in your life! Life's short. If you don't look around once in a while ,you might miss it.

What do you want in life?

Wouldn't it be great to have a real life that made all our wishes come true? Well, forget it. That's not going to happen in this lifetime. Opportunity must be created - not wished for. If you wait around for things to happen, don’t wait for life to happen. Get out there and be what happens to life!

If you have no plan for your life, you have planned to fail. In other words, by doing nothing, we get nothing. We are the architect of our life. An easily established plan of action we can refer to that will help us get what we want in life.

So what is your plan?

What do you really want out of your life?

And what steps will you take to achieve them?

Now, get a pen and a blank sheet of paper, write something you want in life, and write five steps you will take to accomplish your desires. Keep the list with you and concentrate on it every day. Visualize yourself already having these goals. Devote time to working on your list, accomplishing your wants and they will happen for you. But you must participate in the effort to get them and not just wait around for them to happen. Keep a smaller version of your list with you at all times and refer to it as often as you can.
.
So, working with your goal list every day, whatever it takes, what else can you do? Keep your goals and desires in the forefront of your mind and do whatever it takes to make them become realities.
.
I wish you good luck with all your desires in life

The key to success

The key to success is preparation. Do you know what does it mean to be prepared?

Preparation extended beyond having a pencil and paper, but meant that you must have a plan and more importantly be committed to that plan. But most of us do not have a plan. Unfortunately, more value is placed in the everyday written grocery list, than a personal success action plan.

Preparation means that you must also have the necessary attitudes supported by those underlying beliefs if you truly wish to master success. Do you think something like: "Oh, no, I need to sit down and work on this or that?" If you thought positively about the planning time such as "Great, I can see how I can get this done faster and better than the last time," would the outcome be different?

If we could get everything we needed out of a book? It seems that books have become the magic pill for success. Read this and master success. Oh, if life was only that easy. Yet supporting most of these success strategies is something related to preparation. Whether it is goal setting, time management, decision making or any of those other self leadership skills, preparation is one of the most essential keys to success.

So, if you want to unlock the door to success, using the preparation as the key to success, then take the time to determine the following:

· Do you have a written plan for life success?
· Do you have the right attitudes?
· Do you have the right professional development and training?
· Do you have the clarity of purpose and vision?

If you desire success, that means you must answer “Yes” to all of those questions.

Thank you for reading and I wish you every success in life.

Apologizing .....


Apologizing doesn't mean that you are wrong & the other is right..

It means that you value the relationship more than your ego…

Why we can’t have what we want in life?

Why is it some people who seem to be less deserving than we have it all? Abundance, friends, and relationships keep coming their way while we keep struggling to make ends meet. You know we deserve their abundance, but it seems unattainable. We're smart, educated, deserving, and we work hard-what is it they know that we do not?

As simple and unrealistic as it may seem-the one and only reason they have it is because they know they can. And they know they can have more anytime they wish. It is this thought separating them from us. Whether they were born into it, or worked for it-they all have the same knowingness-they can have it and more. This knowingness is why only five percent of the population controls 95% of the world's riches. Although the only difference in having and not having is within the knowledge we can have it-there are good reasons we will be able to come up with that will support our belief

1. We don't know what we really want in life.
2. Its too difficult to focus on our desire
3. We want to control the process.
4. We believe we do not have the power to change our circumstances.
5. We just cannot have anything we want in life.

Our parents and others were telling us, we were taught these destructive beliefs. The first step to making it happen is in accepting we can do it-and it's all we really have to do. In all you can imagine or dream of, simply know we already have it, even if we have to lie to ourselves for a period of time. What should picture it, focus on what it is we wish to experience and we will bring it into our experience-we will have it as our own. We will always get what we truly desire-desire is the key word. we can never have what we want, but we always get what we desire.

I wish you good luck...

Thank you for reading

On Friendship






Kahlil Gibran










Your friend is your needs answered.


He is your field which you sow with love and reap with thanksgiving.


And he is your board and your fireside.


For you come to him with your hunger, and you seek him for peace.


When your friend speaks his mind you fear not the "no" in your own mind, nor do you withhold the "yes."


And when he is silent your heart ceases not to listen to his heart;For without words, in friendship, all thoughts, all desires, all expectations are born and shared,


with joy that is unacclaimed.


When you part from your friend, you grieve not;


For that which you love most in him may be clearer in his absence,


as the mountain to the climber is clearer from the plain.


And let there be no purpose in friendship save the deepening of the spirit.


For love that seeks aught but the disclosure of its own mystery


is not love but a net cast forth:


and only the unprofitable is caught.


And let your best be for your friend.


If he must know the ebb of your tide,


let him know its flood also.


For what is your friend that you should seek him with hours to kill?


Seek him always with hours to live.


For it is his to fill your need, but not your emptiness.


And in the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures.For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.
