THIS MOMENT IS MINE USE IT OR LOSE IT.
MY DENSTINY IS THE LIFE THAT I AM LEADING NOW AND I AM ENJOYING EVERY MINUTE OF IT.
I MUST HAVE THE STEELY DETERMINATION TO GET THINGS DONE.
WHAT I WILL BE TOMORROW , DEPENDS ON THE CHOICESW I MAKE TODAY.
Chosen to be kind, why be nice???
Ø SIMPLY KINDNESS, SIMPLY GIVEN, WITHOUT ANY EXPECTATION OF RECOGNITION REWARD.
Ø DECENT, GENEROUS, BEHAVIOUR CAN TURN A GLUM DAY INTO SOMETHING SPECIAL- OR TRANSFROM THE WAY A PERSON LIVES THEIR LIFE. “WHEN YOU DO SOMETHING NICE FOR SOMEONE, YOU WILL NOTICE A BEAUTIFUL FEELING OF EASE AND PEACE”.
Ø WHETHER KINDNESS IS A CARING WORD OR A GRAND GESTURE, HEART FELT ACTS CAN ADD TO YOUR HEALTH AND HAPPINESS. AND EVERY SO OFTEN THE POWER OF THESE ACTS CAN BE STAGGERING.
Ø CULTIVATING KINDNESS DOSEN’T REQUIRES HEROICS OR STRATEGIC PLANNIN. SIMPLE DAILY GESTURE IS EASY TO DO. SET A GOAL FOR YOURSELF OF DOING ONE RANDOM ACT EVERY DAY FOR A MONTH, AND SEE HOW GOOD YOU FEEL.
Ø YOU MAY NOT CHANGE THE WORLD ON A GRAND SCALE, BUT YOU CAN MAKE IT A BETTER PLACE, ONE GOOD DEED AT ATIME.
MUHAMMED – CHAMPIONS AREN’T MADE IN GYMS. CHAMPIONS ARE MADE FROM SOMETHING THEY HAVE DEEP INSIDE THEM. A DESIRE, A DREAM, A VISION. THEY HAVE TO HAVE LAST MINUTE STAMINA. THAY HAVE TO BE A LITTLE FASTER. THAY HAVE TO HAVE THE SKILL AND THE WILL. BUT THE WILL MUST BE STRONGER THAN THE SKILL

(design, conformance and performance qualities
People’ve a tremendous creative power. They’ve a great potential to do great things.
People need people and friends need friends
And we all need love for a full life depends
Not on vast riches or great acclaim
Not on success of on worldly fame
But just in knowing that someone cares
And holds us close on their thoughts prayers
For only the knowledge that we’re understood
Makes everyday living feel WONDERFULLY GOOD
And we rob ourselves of life’s greatest need
When we lock up our hearts and fail to heed
The outstretched hand reaching to find
A kindred spirit whose heart and mind
Are lonely and longing to somehow share
Our joys and sorrows and to make us aware
That life’s completeness and richness depends
On the things we share with our love ones and friends
- We need to feel more to understand others.
- We need to love more to be loved back.
- We need to cry more to cleanse ourselves.
- We need to laugh more to enjoy ourselves.
- We need to see more other than our own little fantasies.
- We need to hear more and listen to the needs of others.
- We need to give more and own less.
- We need to look more and realize that we are not so different from one another.
- We need to create a world where all can peacefully live the life they choose.

YOU SEE,IT’S UP TO YOU.
1. IF YOU THINK YOU ARE BEATEN, YOU ARE
IF YOU THAT YOU ARE DARE NOT, YOU DON’T ;
IF YOU’D LIKE TO WIN, BUT YOU THINK YOU CAN’T
IT’S ALMOST A CINCH YOU WON’T.
IFYOU THINK YOU’LL LOSE, YOU ARE LOST.
FOR OUT IN THE WORLD YOU’LL FIND.
SUCCESS BEINGS WITH A FELLOW’S WILL;
IT’S ALL IN THE STATE OF MIND
2. FULL MANY A RECE IS LOST
ERE EVEN A STEP IS RUN.
AND MANY A COWARD FAILS.
ERE EVEN HIS WORKS, BEGUN
THINK BIG, AND YOUR DEEDS WILL GROW,
THINK SMALL AND YOU WILL FALL BEHIND.
THINK THAT YOU CAN AND YOU WILL.
IT IS ALL IN THE STATE OF MIND.
3. IF YOU THINK YOU ARE YOU ARE OUT-CLASSED, YOU ARE
YOU’VE GOT TO THINK HIGH TO RISE;
YOU’VE GOT TO BE SURE OF YOURSELF BEFORE
YOU CAN EVER WIN A PRIZE.
LIFE’S BATTLES DON’T ALWAYS GO
TO THE STRONGER OR FASTER MAN
BUT SOON OR LATE THE MAN WHO WINS
IS THE FELLOW WHO THINKS HE CAN.
THE MORE FAITH YOU HAVE
THE MORE YOU BELIEVE
THE GOALS YOU SET
THE MORE YOU’LL ACHIEVE.
SO SEARCH FOR THE STARS
PICK A MOUNTAIN TO CLIMB
DARE TO THINK BIG
BUT GIVE YOURSELF TIME.
REMEMBER NO MATTER
HOW FUTILE THINGS SEEM
WITH FAITH, THERE IS NO
IMPOSSIBLE DREAM.
THE TREE THAT NEVER HAD TO FIGHT
FOR SUN AND SKY AND AIR AND LIGHT
THAT STOOD OUT ON THE OPEN PLAIN
AND ALWAYS GOT ITS SHARE OF RAIN
NEVER BECAME A FOREST KING
BUT LIVED AND DIED A SCRUBBY THING
PEOPLE WHO NEVER HAVE TO TOIL
TO RAISE ABOVE THE COMMON SOIL
WHO NEVER HAVE TO WIN THEIR SHARE
OF SUN AND LIGHT AND SKY AND AIR
NEVER REACH THE POTENTIAL THEY CAN
BUT LIVE AND DIE AS THEY BEGAN.
FOR GOOD TIMBER DOES NOT GROW IN EASE
THE STRONGER THE WIND, THE TOUGHER THE TREES;
THE FARTHER THE SKY, THE GREATER THE LENGTH;
THE MORE THE STORM, THE MORE THE STRENGTH
BY SUN AND BY COLD, BY RAINS AND SNOWS,
IN TREES OR IN PROPLE GOOD TIMBER GROWS.
WHAT MONEY CAN BUY
- A BED, BUT NOT SLEEP
- BOOKS, BUT NOT BRAINS
- FOOD, BUT NOT APPETITE
- FINERY, BUT NOT BEAUTY
- A HOUSE, BUT NOT A HOME
- MEDICINE, BUT NOT HEALTH
- LUXURIES, BUT NOT CULTURE
- AMUSEMENTS, BUT NOT HAPPINESS
- ACQUAINTANCE, BUT NOT FRIENDS
- SERVANTS, BUT NOT FAITHFULNESS
- RELIGION, BUT NOT SALVATION
GO PLACIDLY AMID THE NOISE AND HASTE, AND REMEMBER WHAT PEACE THERE MAY BE IN SILENCE. AS FAR AS POSSIBLE WITHOUT SURRENDER, BE ON GOOD TERMS WITH ALL PERSONS. SPEAK YOUR TRUTH QUIETLY AND CLEARLY; AND LISTEN TO OTHERS, EVEN THE DULL AND IGNORANT; THEY, TOO HAVE THEIR STORY.
AVOID LOUD AND AGGRESSIVE PERSONS, THEY ARE VEXATIONS TO THE SPIRIT. IF YOU COMPARE YOURSELF WITH OTHERS, YOU MAY BECOME VAIN AND BITTER; FOR ALWAYS THERE WILL BE GREATER AND LESSER PERSONS THAN YOURSELF. ENJOY YOUR ACHIEVEMENTS AS WELL AS YOUR PLANS.
KEEP INTERESTED IN YOUR OWN CAREER, HOWEVER HUMBLE; IT IS A REAL POSSESSION IN THE CHANGING FORTUNES OF TIME. EXERCISE CAUTION IN YOUR BUSINESS AFFAIRS; FOR THE WORLD IS FULLY OF TRICKEY. BUT LET THIS NOT BLIND YOU TO WHAT VIRTUE THERE IS; MANY PERSONS STRIVE FOR HIGH IDEALS; AND EVERYWHERE LIFE IS FULL OF HEROISM.
BE YOURSELF ESPECIALLY, DO NOT FEIGN AFFECTION. NEITHER BE CYNICAL ABOUT LOVE; FOR IN THE FACE OF ARIDITY AND DISENCHANTMENT IT IS PERENNIAL AS THE GRASS.
TAKE KINDLY THE COUNSEL OF THE YEARS, GRACEFULLY SURRENDERING THE THINGS OF YOUTH. NURTURE STRENGTH OF SPIRIT TO SHIELD YOU IN SUDDEN MISFORTUNE. BUT DO NOT DISTRESS YOURSELF WITH IMAGININGS. MANY FEARS ARE BORN OF FATIGUE AND LONELINESS. BEYOND A WHOLESOME DISCIPLINE, BE GENTLE WITH YOURSELF.
YOU ARE A CHILD OF UNIVERSE, NO LESS THAN THE TREES AND THE STARS; YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO BE HERE. AND WHETHER OR NOT IT IS CLEAR TO YOU, NO DOUBT THE UNIVERSE OS UNDOLDING AS IT SHOULD.
THEREFORE BE AT PEACE WITH GOD, WHATEVER YOU CONCEIVE HIM TO BE, AND WHATEVER YOUR LABORS AND ASPIRATIONS, IN THE NOISY CONFUSION OF LIFE KEEP PEACE WITH YOUR SOUL.
WITH ALL ITS SHAM, DRUDGERY AND BROKEN DREAMS, IT IS STILL A BEAUTIFL WORLD. BE CAREFUL. STRIVE TO BE HAPPY.
WHEN THINGS SEEM DIFFICULT, AND LIFE UP HILL. DON’T LOOK TOO FAR AHEAD, KEEP PLODDING ON AND INCH BY INCH, THE ROAD WILL SHORTEN, TILL. THE ROUGHEST PATCHES WILL BE PAST AND GONE. AND YOU WILL LOOK BACK SURPRISED AND CHEERED TO FIND. THAT YOU HAVE LEFT SO MANY MILES BEHIND AND VERY SOON THE TEDIOUS CLIMB WILL STOP, AND YOU WILL STAND TRIUMPHANT, AT THE TOP.
LOOK TO THIS DAY!
FOR IT IS LIFE, THE VERY LIFE OF LIFE
IN ITS BRIEF COURSE LIE ALL THE VERITIES
ALL THE REALITIES OF EXISTENCE,
THE BLISS OF GROWTH,
THE GLORY OF ACTIONS,
THE SPLENDOR OF BEAUTY.
FOR YESTERDAY IS ALREADY A DERAM
AND TOMORROW IS ONLY A VISION,
BUT TODAY, WILL LIVED,
MAKES EVERY YESTERDAY A DREAM OF HAPPINESS
AND EVERY YESTERDAY A DREAM OF HAPPINESS
AND EVERY TOMORROW A VISION OF HOPE
LOOK WELL, THEREFORE, TO THIS DAY!
SUCH IS THE SALUTATION TO THE DAWN.

WE BECOME WHAT WE THINK.
MANY DO NOT REALIZE THAT THE MIND ACTS ACCORDING TO ITS OWN CONCEPTION OF ITSELF. IF OUR OWN CONCEPT OF OURSELVES IS SMALL, THEN WE WILL DO AND HAVE SMALL THINGS. IF WE HAVE A LARGER CONCEPT OF OURSELVES, WE NATURALLY WILL DO BIGGER THINGS AND ATTRACT THE BETTER THINGS OF LIFE.
AS YOU THINK ALONE AND MEDITATE ABOUT YOUR TIME AND HOW BEST TO INVEST IT, KEEP IN MIND THAT OLD MAN PROCRASTINATION STANDS WITHIN THE SHADOW OF EVERY ONE OF US JUST WAITING FOR HIS CHANCE TO SPOIL OUR SUCCESS AND LURE US INTOWASTING OUR TIME. MILLIONS OF PEOPLE THROUGHTOUT THE WORLD GO THROUGH LIFE AS FAILURES BECAUSE THEY HAVE FALLEN PREY TO PROCRASTINATION AND DECIDED TO WAIT, ALWAYS WAITING FOR THE TIME TO BEJUST RIGHT TO START DOING SOMETHING THEY ALREADY KNOW IS GOOD, WORTHWHILE, AND SHOULD BE DONE AT ONCE. DON’T WAIT! THE TIME WILL NEVER BE JUST RIGHT. THE ONLY PERIOD OF TIME WE CAN ACT UPON IS RIGHT NOW. START TODAY. START RIGHT WHERE YOU STAND, AND WORK WITH WHATEVER TOOLS YOU NOW HAVE AT YOUR COMMAND.
ANYWAY
People are unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered.
LOVE THEM ANYWAY.
If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives,
DO GOOD ANYWAY.
If you are successful, you win false friends and true enemies,
SUCCEED ANYWAY.
The good you do will be forgotten tomorrow,
DO GOOD ANYWAY.
Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable,
BE HONEST AND FRANK ANYWAY.
What you sent years building may be destroyed overnight,
BUILD ANYWAY.
People really need help but many attack you if you help them,
HELP PEOPLE ANYWAY.
Give the world the best you have and you’ll get kicked in the teeth,
GIVE THE WORLD THE BEST YOU’VE GOT ANYWAY.

EVERY ACTION HE TAKES IS DESIGNED TO MEET THEIR NEEDS.

I BELIEVE I WILL ALWAYS TAKE THE RIGHT TURN OF THE ROAD.
I BELIEVE GOD WILL ALWAYS MAKE A WAY WHERE THERE IS NO WAY.”)

THE SECRET OF HAPPINESS
YOUR HAPPINESS GROWS WHEN YOU HELP OTHER PEOPLE. BUT THE LESS YOU TRY TO HELP THEM, THE MORE IT SHRIVELS AND DRIES UP. FOR HAPPINESS IS LIKE A PLANT; IT MUST BE WATERED DAILY WITH GIVING THOUGHTS AND ACTIONS.
THE SECRET OF HAPPINESS IS LAUGHING WITH OTHERS AS THEIR FRIEND, AND NOT AT THEM AS THEIR JUDGE.
THE SECRET OF HAPPINESS IS NOT BRAGGING, NOR WANTING TO BE THOUGHT IMPORTANT. BRAGGING IS LIKE A CAWING CROW, THE LOUDER IT CAWS, THE MORE UNPLEASANT THE NOISE IT MAKES!
HAPPINESS IS NOW!! IT ISN’T TOMORROW. IT ISN’T YESTERDAY. HAPPINESS IS LIKE A MORNING GLORY; YESTERDAY’S WON’T BLOOM AGAIN; TOMORROW’S HASN’T OPEN YET.
ONLY TODAY’S FLOWER CAN BE ENJOYED TODAY. BE HAPPY THIS VERY MOMENT, AND YOU’LL LEARN HOW TO BE HAPPY ALWAYS.
