Thought 11NOV2010

SUCCESS
The man who makes a success of an important venture never wails for the crowd. He strikes out for himself. It takes nerve, it takes a great lot of grit; but the man that succeeds has both. Anyone can fail. The public admires the man who has enough confidence in himself to take a chance. These chances are the main things after all. The man who tries to succeed must expect to be criticized. Nothing important was ever done but the greater number consulted previously doubted the possibility. Success is the accomplishment of that which most people think can't be done.
C. V. White
There is only one success - to be able to spend your life in your own way - Christopher Morley

Thought 10NOV2010

THE DAY BEFORE TOMORROW
The day before tomorrow; Is a very special day; And I feel that I should live it; In a happy kind of way ...
Tomorrow's so mysterious; That I really can't foresee; The things that might be happening; And the way that life might be
But the Day After Tomorrow; That's quite a different thing ...; Those hours are so much closer; I can guess what they might bring ...; I'd rather be a sparrow; Or a lily of the field; And just wait till God's will for me; Is finally revealed ...
I'll put aside the grief's and cares; The trouble I won't borrow; And just be glad I'm living in; The Day Before Tomorrow !!!

TEN PRINCIPLES FOR PEACE OF MIND (10 of 10)
[Do Not Procrastinate And Never Regret]
Do not waste time in protracted wondering " Should I or shouldn't I?" Days, weeks, months, and years may be wasted in that futile mental debating. You can never plan enough because you can never anticipate all future happenings. Value your time and do the things that need to be done. It does not matter if you fail the first time. You can learn from your mistakes and succeed the next time. Sitting back and worrying will lead to nothing. Learn from your mistakes, but do not brood over the past. Do not regret. Whatever happened was destined to happen only that way. Why cry over spilt milk?

TEN PRINCIPLES FOR PEACE OF MIND (9 of 10)
[Never Leave The Mind Vacant]
An empty mind is the devil's workshop. All evil actions start in the vacant mind. Keep your mind occupied in something positive, something worthwhile . Actively follow a hobby. Do something that holds your interest. You must decide what you value more : money or peace of mind. Your hobby, like social work or religious work, may not always earn you more money, but you will have a sense of fulfillment and achievement. Even when you are resting physically, occupy yourself in healthy reading or mental chanting of God's name.

Love is not how much you can get but how much you can give. It's not about giving up but holding on, not about how you say 'I love you', but how you show that it's true - Source Unknown
