Guarantee Your Future

"Education is the great engine  of personal development.  It is through education that  the daughter of a peasant  can become a doctor,  that the son of a mine worker  can become the head of the mine, that a child of farm workers  can become the president  of a great nation.  It is what we make out of  what we have,  not what we are given,  that separates  one person from another."    Nelson Mandela  Invest three percent of  your income  in yourself  (self-development)  in order to guarantee your future.

Dare To Be Powerful

When I dare to be powerful,  to use my strength  in the service of my vision,   then it becomes  less and less important  whether I am afraid. Audre Lorde      There are two ways of living:  a man may be casual and simply exist,  or constructively and deliberately  try to do so.  The constructive idea implies a constructiveness not only about  one's own life,  but about that of society,  and the future possibilities of mankind.

A Little Flower

Just living is not enough.  One must have  sunshine, freedom,  and a little flower. Hans Christian Andersen     Your ambition should be  to get as much life out of living  as you possibly can,  as much enjoyment,  as much interest,  as much experience,  as much understanding.  Not simply be  what is generally called a "success."

The Loving Way

You cannot change the world, but you can present the world with one improved person - Yourself. You can go to work on yourself to make yourself into the kind of person you admire and respect. You can become a role model and set a standard for others.  You can control and discipline yourself to resist acting or speaking in a negative way toward anyone for any reason.  You can insist upon always doing things the loving way,rather than the hurtful way.  By doing these things each day, you can continue on your journey toward becoming an exceptional human being.

Be Thankful

Be thankful that you don’t already have everything you desire. If you did, what would there be to look forward to? Be thankful when you don’t know something, for it gives you the opportunity to learn. Be thankful for the difficult times. During those times you grow. Be thankful for your limitations, because they give you opportunities for improvement. Be thankful for each new challenge, because it will build your strength and character. Be thankful for your mistakes. They will teach you valuable lessons. Be thankful when you’re tired and weary, because it means you’ve made a difference. It’s easy to be thankful for the good things. A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who are also thankful for the setbacks. Gratitude can turn a negative into a positive. Find a way to be thankful for your troubles, and they can become your blessings. Author Unknown Explore This Website
