A giving attitude is the secret to successful living. Every beginner is a winner! Junk the junk food of your mind. You may not be able to control everything that happens to you, but you can control how you will react. Knock out all kinds of forecasts of gloom and doom. Knock out discouragement. Persevere: don't give up. Look at what you have left, never at what you've lost. Quit complaining. The me I see… is the me Ill be! There is no substitute for work. Beginning is half done!

Give a man a fish, and he’ll eat for a day. Teach him how to fish and he’ll eat forever. The noblest charity is to prevent a man from accepting charity; and the best alms are to show and to enable a man to dispense with alms. Practising charity without compassion is as inconceivable . As realising Truth without clarity of mind. Tell me and I’ll forget; show me and I may remember; involve me and I’ll understand. The greatest good you can do for another is not just to share your riches but to reveal to him his own. Self-help must precede help from others. Even for making certain of help from heaven, one has to help oneself. True charity is the desire to be useful to others without thought of recompense. The Primordial Power is ever at play. She is creating, preserving, and destroying in play, as it were... The Divine Mother wants to continue playing with Her created beings. No human being is innocent, but there is a class of innocent human actions called Games. We are forced to participate in the games of life before we can possibly learn how to use the options in the rules governing them. The blue of the sky, the brown of the tiles, and the blue of the glass had a purpose; they belonged together, they played with one another, they were in good spirits; and it felt good to see them that way, to be a spectator of their games, to feel permeated by the same morning glow and the same sense of well-being that they were enjoying. No one shall cause another pain or injury; All mankind shall live in peace together, Under a shield of administrative benevolence.
In this world may obedience
triumph over disobedience, May peace triumph over discord, May generosity
triumph over niggardliness, May love triumph over contempt, May the
true-spoken word triumph over the false-spoken word, May truth triumph over
falsehood. The human race’s prospects of survival were considerably better when we were defenseless against tigers than they are today when we have become defenseless against ourselves. You are God's special gift to the world. You are a bright and shining star. When you look into your eyes in the mirror each morning, tell yourself, I am hope. I am joy. I am free. I am happy. I am love. More important, I am me. You have within you the ability to create all that you desire to be, to have, and to experience. You are the power. You have the power. You are powerful. Since you will always be with you, because you are so very important to you, you must know how to take care of yourself, how to honor yourself, and how to affirm yourself. My prayer is that you realize the world is waiting for you to bring forth all that you are, in the way only you can. Just be who you are. You lack nothing. You connect the heavens to the earth in a most sacred way. Your body is the temple. Your heart is the key. Always celebrate the joy that lies within the temple of your heart. When I hear somebody sigh, "Life is hard," I am always tempted to ask, "Compared to what? When it is dark enough, you can see the stars. When it's all over, it's not who you were. It's whether you made a difference. When life knocks you down, try to land on your back. Because if you can look up, you can get up. Let your reason get you back up. When patterns are broken, new worlds emerge. When we are motivated by goals that have deep meaning, by dreams that need completion, by pure love that needs expressing -- then we truly live life. When you can't have what you want, it's time to start wanting what you have. When you discover your mission, you will feel its demand. It will fill you with enthusiasm and a burning desire to get to work on it. When you have a sense of your own identity and a vision of where you want to go in your life, you then have the basis for reaching out to the world and going after your dreams for a better life. When you were born, you cried and the world rejoiced. Live your life so that when you die, the world cries and you rejoice. Regret for the things we did can be tempered by time; it is regret for the things we did not do that is inconsolable. Change and growth take place when a person has risked himself and dares to become involved with experimenting with his own life.
In our life there is a single color, as on an
artist`s palette, which provides the People like us, who believe in physics, know that the distinction between past, present, and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion. Change has long been a fearful thing for human beings ... and at the same time, it is our most Divine opportunity. Clinging to the banks of the river may seem safe and more secure, but life's possibilities are truly engaged only when we trust, release and become part of The Flow of the Universe. Life is mostly froth and bubble, two things stand like stone: kindness in another's trouble, courage in your own. Idle words, tentatively tossed, often reinforce the status quo that we are trying to change with affirmations. I've learned from many personal experiences that KNOWINGNESS can be achieved when we relinquish control and trust in the Goodness of the Universe. To be what we are, and to become what we are capable of becoming, is the only end in life. Even though you may want to move forward in your life, you may have one foot on the brakes. In order to be free, we must learn how to let go. Release the hurt. Release the fear. Refuse to entertain your old pain. The energy it takes to hang onto the past is holding you back from a new life. What is it you would let go of today? Learn to get in touch with silence within yourself, and know that everything in this life has purpose. There are no mistakes, no coincidences, all events are blessings given to us to learn from. Time is the coin of your life. It is the only coin you have, and only you can determine how it will be spent. Be careful lest you let other people spend it for you. It is raining still... Maybe it is not one of those showers that is here one minute and gone the next, as I had so boldly assumed. Maybe none of them are. After all, life in itself is a chain of rainy days. But there are times when not all of us have umbrellas to walk under. Those are the times when we need people who are willing to lend their umbrellas to a wet stranger on a rainy day. I think I'll go for a walk with my umbrella. Life is the sum of your choices. Difficult times have helped me to understand better than before, how infinitely rich and beautiful life is in every way, and that so many things that one goes worrying about are of no importance whatsoever... Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we're here we should dance. The art of life is to live in the present moment, and to make that moment as perfect as we can by the realization that we are the instruments and expression of God Himself. Believe that life is worth living, and your belief will help create the fact. It is difficult to live in the present, ridiculous to live in the future, and impossible to live in the past. Nothing is as far away as one minute ago. For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way. Something to be got through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life. Don't be afraid your life will end; be afraid that it will never begin. The game of life is the game of boomerangs. Our thoughts, deeds, and words return to us sooner or later, with astounding accuracy. Life is a great and wondrous mystery, and the only thing we know that we have for sure is what is right here right now. Don't miss it. Life is a mirror and will reflect back to the thinker what he thinks into it. Life is the acceptance of responsibilities or their evasion; it is a business of meeting obligations or avoiding them. To every man the choice is continually being offered, and by the manner of his choosing you may fairly measure him. Life is not measured by the breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away. A life of reaction is a life of slavery, intellectually and spiritually. One must fight for a life of action, not reaction. Start living now. Stop saving the good china for that special occasion. Stop withholding your love until that special person materializes. Every day you are alive is a special occasion. Stop acting as if life is a rehearsal. Live this day as if it were your last. The past is over and gone. The future is not guaranteed. All things are connected. Whatever befalls the earth, befalls the sons of the earth. Man did not weave the web of life; he is merely a strand in it. Whatever he does to the web, he does to himself. We must be willing to fail and to appreciate the truth that often "Life is not a problem to be solved, but a mystery to be lived." Four Lessons on Life 1. Never take down a fence until you know why it was put up. 2. If you get too far ahead of the army, your soldiers may mistake you for the enemy. 3. Don’t complain about the bottom rungs of the ladder; they helped to get you higher. 4. If you want to enjoy the rainbow, be prepared to endure the storm. A single event can awaken within us a stranger totally unknown to us. To live is to be slowly born. Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense. We must be willing to get rid of the life we've planned, so as to have the life that is awaiting us.... The old skin has to be shed before the new one is to come. As any change must begin somewhere, it is the single individual who will experience it and carry it through. The change must indeed begin with an individual; it might be any one of us. Nobody can afford to look round and to wait for somebody else to do what he is loath to do himself. Change starts when someone sees the next step. Personal transformation can and does have global effects. As we go, so goes the world, for the world is us. The revolution that will save the world is ultimately a personal one. That's the risk you take if you change: that people you've been involved with won't like the new you. But other people who do will come along. Change is the end result of all true learning. Since changes are going on anyway, the great thing is to learn enough about them so that we will be able to lay hold of them and turn them in the direction of our desires. Conditions and events are neither to be fled from nor passively acquiesced in; they are to be utilized and directed. Maintaining a complicated life is a great way to avoid changing it. Judgmentalism assumes that you have the right to change someone else. Well, you don't. You only have the right to choose how you will change and behave. Trust others to make their own choices. Put the accountability for another's actions where it belongs, on the other person's shoulders. People are very open-minded about new things — as long as they're exactly like the old ones. I have not ceased being fearful, but I have ceased to let fear control me. I have accepted fear as a part of life specifically the fear of change, the fear of the unknown; and I have gone ahead despite the pounding in my heart that says: turn back, turn back, you'll die if you venture too far. In every crisis there is a message. Crises are nature's way of forcing change — breaking down old structures, shaking loose negative habits so that something new and better can take their place. It is hard to let old beliefs go. They are familiar. We are comfortable with them and have spent years building systems and developing habits that depend on them. Like a man who has worn eyeglasses so long that he forgets he has them on, we forget that the world looks to us the way it does because we have become used to seeing it that way through a particular set of lenses. Today, however, we need new lenses. And we need to throw the old ones away. There is nothing like returning to a place that remains unchanged to find the ways in which you yourself have altered. Why is it that, as we grow older, we are so reluctant to change? It is not so much that new ideas are painful, for they are not. It is that old ideas are seldom entirely false, but have truth, great truth in them. The justification for conservatism is the desire to preserve the truths and standards of the past; its dangers, of which we are seldom aware, is that in preserving those values, we may miss the infinitely greater riches that lie in the future. If you keep on doing what you've always done, you'll keep on getting what you've always got. The art of living does not consist of preserving and clinging to a particular mood of happiness, but in allowing happiness to change its form without being disappointed by the change; for happiness, like a child, must be allowed to grow up. If we don't change, we don't grow. If we don't grow, we are not really living. I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next. Delicious Ambiguity. Change is inevitable, growth is intentional. The most powerful thing you can do to change the world is to change your own beliefs about the nature of life, people, and reality to something more positive … and begin to act accordingly. You cannot raise a man up by calling him down. Leadership is doing what is right when no one is watching. You can discover more about a person in an hour of play than in a year of conversation. Life is like a dogsled team. If you ain't the lead dog, the scenery never changes. Don't ever take a fence down until you know why it was put up. When you are right, you cannot be too radical; When you are wrong, you cannot be too conservative. Each day of our lives we make deposits in the memory banks of our children. Good is not good where better is expected. I don't like that man. I must get to know him better. Deal with the faults of others as gently as with your own. A successful person is one who can lay a firm foundation with the bricks that others throw at him or her. If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost. That is where they should be. Now put the foundation under them. Kites rise highest against the wind; not with it. Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away. The canker has so eaten into the society that in many cases the only meaning of education is a knowledge of English. People laugh at New Year resolutions. But we could all use 10 minutes in a chair followed by a humble prayer. Good resolutions are like babies crying in church. They should be carried out immediately. One resolution I have made, and try always to keep, is this: 'To rise above little things'. Resolve not to be poor: whatever you have, spend less. Poverty is a great enemy to human happiness; it certainly destroys liberty, and it makes some virtues impracticable, and others extremely difficult. Good resolutions are simply checks that men draw on a bank where they have no account. Resolve to be thyself: and know, that he/ Who finds himself, loses his misery. Resolved, never to do anything which I should be afraid to do if it were the last hour of my life. Let us resolve to be masters, not the victims, of our history, controlling our own destiny without giving way to blind suspicions and emotions. Resolve to be tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant with the weak and wrong. Sometime in life you will have been all of these. Television is the only effective and convenient medium to reach people who live in the remote locations of the country for providing education and knowledge in the process of character and nation building. You have come on earth to entertain and to be entertained. This is why life should be a combination of both meditation and activity. If you lose your inner balance, that is just the time when you are vulnerable to worldly sufferings... Awaken the innate fortitude of the mind by affirming: "No matter what experiences come they cannot touch me. I am always happy. The first step in seeking happiness is learning. We have to learn how negative emotions and behavior are harmful to us and how positive emotions are helpful. Happiness is when what you think and what you do are in harmony. I care less about the gross national product and more about the gross national happiness. Happiness is the interval between periods of unhappiness. All happiness depends on a leisurely breakfast. What can be added to the happiness of a man who is in health, out of debt, and has a clear conscience? Once you have heard of the lark, known the swish of feet through hill-top grass and smelt the earth made ready for the seed, you are never again going to be fully happy about the cities and towns that man carries like a crippling weight upon his back. Like the bee, gathering honey from different flowers, the wise man accepts the essence of different scriptures and sees only the good in all religions. Tolerance is the positive and cordial effort to understand another's beliefs, practices, and habits without necessarily sharing or accepting them. There is no compulsion in religion. The trouble with being tolerant is that people think you don't understand the problem. Do not break a promise, not that which you contracted with a non-Zoroastrian nor that with a co-religionist. Both are valid. Most people would rather defend to the death your right to say it than listen to it. Tolerance is the virtue of the man without convictions. All religions must be tolerated. Every man must get to heaven in his own way. Two of the greatest gifts we can give our children are roots and wings. It is not uncommon for slight acquaintances to get married, a couple really have to know each other to get divorced. Life is not the way it is supposed to be. It's the way it is. The way you cope with it is what makes the difference. Nobody remembers who finished the second but the guy who finished second. A friend is one of the nicest things you can have, and one of the best things you can be. Love is a game that two can play and both win. There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as if everything is. Let the purpose of life become passion for life. The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong. What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans, and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or the holy name of liberty and democracy? The only tyrant I accept in this world is the still voice within. It may be long before the law of love will be recognised in international affairs. The machineries of government stand between and hide the hearts of one people from those of another. As soon as we lose the moral basis, we cease to be religious. There is no such thing as religion over-riding morality. Man, for instance, cannot be untruthful, cruel or incontinent and claim to have God on his side. There is more to life than simply increasing its speed. We must be the change we wish to see. The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others. The moment there is suspicion about a person's motives, everything he does becomes tainted. Suffering cheerfully endured, ceases to be suffering and is transmuted into an ineffable joy. The participant's perspectives are clouded while the bystander's views are clear. Pick the flower when it is ready to be picked. If you don't go into the cave of the tiger, how are you going to get its cub? Follow the local custom when you go to a foreign place. It's is impossible to change your basic characteristics. Once bitten by a snake, you are even frightened by a rope that resembles a snake. Your neighbor's wife looks prettier than your own. When you go up to the mountain too often, you will eventually encounter the tiger. Elephant tusks cannot grow out of a dog's mouth. When the tiger comes down from the mountain to the plains, it is bullied by the dogs. Ability has nothing to do with opportunity. Advising is easier than helping. The seed of contentment brings all attainments. The attraction towards sense organs is the root cause of all sufferings. If you develop special affection towards anyone due to his specialities, it is attachment. Attachment with anybody will surely make you lazy in efforts. Everyday visualize your face in the mirror of self-respect and you will be able to overcome attachment. The soul of our country needs to be awakened....When leaders act contrary to conscience, we must act contrary to leaders. Awareness of being a real learner gives the experience of being carefree and free from obstacles. I always prefer to believe in the best of everybody; it saves so much trouble. If you wish others to believe in you, you must first convince them that you believe in them. In business, we must study HUMAN MANAGEMENT and If there is spare time Business Management may also be studied. Commitment is the enemy of resistance, for it is the serious promise to pres on, to get up, no matter how many times you are knocked down. Concentration of mind enables you to achieve your destination easily and firmly. We have lost a sense of respect for serious, honest conduct. If we are moved merely by greed, and there's no longer any respect for decent or honest government, than we will suffer the results. Control your mental confusion to make your present and future bright. Your loose tongue will only retrograde your reputation. As you move, always see ahead and behind so that you are safe from accidents. Always keep your line of intellect clear to stabilize in the seed of stage. No need to pay attention to things which disturb your internal stage. Self-control and self-discipline are the adornments of life. Your face should not disturb others' intellect. Problems are only situations beyond control till you bring it within control. Today I will do what you won't, so tomorrow I can do what you can't. We cannot safely leave politics to politicians, or political economy to college professors. The people themselves must think, because the people alone can act. To raise new questions, new possibilities, to regard old problems from new angle, requires creative imagination and marks real advance. Uncertainity can lead to paralysis. And if you become indecisive you are dead. Difficulties create barriers but determination breaks them. Determination garlands success around your neck. A dot becomes line, a line becomes shape, a shape becomes pattern, a pattern becomes an artwork. One must always remember to start at the pure basics. In the end, you will end up with a masterpiece. Whatever happens at any time is the best thing for learning, growing and developing. The first duty of love is to listen. Forget the resolutions. Forget control and discipline...too much work. Instead try experimenting. Go in search of something to fall in love with...something about yourself, your career, your spouse. Friendship is not always the sequel of obligation. Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant? Not only is there a right to be happy, there is a duty to be happy. So much sadness exists in the world that we are all under obligation to contribute as much joy as lies within our powers. There is no duty we so much underrate as the duty of being happy. By being happy, we sow anonymous benefits upon the world. The first duty of a human being is to assume the right relationship to society--more briefly, to find your real job, and do it. Seek happiness for its own sake, and you will not find it; seek for duty, and happiness will follow as the shadow comes with the sunshine. Nothing truly valuable arises from ambition or from a mere sense of duty; it stems rather from love and devotion towards men and towards objective things. I pride myself on my success in doing not the things I like to do, but the things I don't like to do. Education is not the piling on of learning, information, data, facts, skills, or abilities--that's training or instruction--but is rather a making visible what is hidden as a seed... To be educated, a person doesn't have to know much or be informed, but he or she does have to have been exposed vulnerably to the transformative events of an engaged human life... One of the greatest problems of our time is that many are schooled but few are educated. Enthusiasm and Zeal are the wings on which we can fly over all circumstances and turn mountains into molehills. Enthusiasm frees the self from obstacles and brings benefits to all. Faith in one is the foundation of a carefree life. Friendship is never established as an understood relation. It is a miracle which requires constant proofs. It is an exercise of the purest imagination and of the rarest faith! The most I can do for my friend is simply to be his friend. Running after short term desired is like searching water in desert. The government is the only known vessel that leaks from the top. Growing and developing others is one of management's key responsibilities. The traditional view of management is getting work done through people, but strong leaders develop people through work. Spread the rays of happiness throughout the entire world. It is only possible to live happily ever after on a day to day basis. I want to be happy, but I won't be happy till I make you happy too ! Man is made or unmade by himself. In the armory of thought he forges the weapons by which he destroys himself. He also fashions the tools with which he builds for himself heavenly mansions of joy and strength and peace. Only one thing has to change for us to know happiness in our lives: where we focus our attention. Happiness will never be any greater than the idea we have of it. Happiness can be defined, in part at least, as the fruit of the desire and ability to sacrifice what we want now for what we want eventually. Happiness does not depend on outward things, but on the way we see them. One does not need buildings, money, power, or status to practice the Art of Peace. Heaven is right where you are standing, and that is the place to train. I have a need inside me, of a certain joy, you see? An expression of joy. I feel it. I suppose that I am glad to be alive, glad to have a man whom I love and a life that I enjoy and the things which I work on which sometimes make my spirit sing. And I hope everybody has that feeling inside. I am grateful that I have a spirit inside me which often sings. Life isn't supposed to be an all or nothing battle between misery and bliss. Life isn't supposed to be a battle at all. And when it comes to happiness, well, sometimes life is just okay, sometimes it's comfortable, sometimes wonderful, sometimes boring, sometimes unpleasant. When your day's not perfect, it's not a failure or a terrible loss. It's just another day. Joy increases as you give it, and diminishes as you try to keep it for yourself. In giving it, you will accumulate a deposit of joy greater than you ever believed possible. Live your life and forget your age. Practice hope. As hopefulness becomes a habit, you can achieve a permanently happy spirit. Our happiness depends on the habit of mind we cultivate. So practice happy thinking every day. Cultivate the merry heart, develop the happiness habit, and life will become a continual feast. Watch your manner of speech if you wish to develop a peaceful state of mind. Start each day by affirming peaceful, contented and happy attitudes and your days will tend to be pleasant and successful. Success, happiness, peace of mind and fulfillment--the most priceless of human treasures--are available to all among us, without exception, who make things happen--who make *good* things happen--in the world around them. All men seek one goal: success or happiness. The only way to achieve true success is to express yourself completely in service to society. First, have a definite, clear, practical ideal--a goal, an objective. Second, have the necessary means to achieve your ends--wisdom, money, material and methods. Third, adjust all your means to that end. Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of life, the whole aim and end of human existence. Happiness depends on ourselves. Happiness is an expression of the soul in considered actions. Life's strict rule is this: You get more of what you focus on. Ignoring this, we abandon our healthiest, concentrative energies and court emotional upheaval. The mintage of wisdom is to know that rest is rust, and that real life is in love, laughter, and work. The happiness of this life depends less on what befalls you than the way in which you take it. Get happiness out of your work or you may never know what happiness is. The habit of being uniformly considerate toward others will bring increased happiness to you. All animals except man know that the principal business of life is to enjoy it. To laugh often and love much; to win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children, to earn the approbation of honest critics; to appreciate beauty; to give of one's self, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exultation; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived--that is to have succeeded. Five great enemies to peace inhabit us: avarice, ambition, envy, anger, and pride. If those enemies were to be banished, we should infallibly enjoy perpetual peace. He who postpones the hour of living is like the rustic who waits for the river to run out before he crosses. Seize the day, and put the least possible trust in tomorrow and be happy ! Mix a little foolishness with your serious plans: it's lovely to be silly at the right moment. Happiness is a perfume you cannot pour on others without getting a few drops on yourself. Success is not a destination that you ever reach. Success is the quality of your journey. When you recover or discover something that nourishes your soul and bring joy, care enough about yourself to make room for it in your life. Life is a progress from want to want, not from enjoyment to enjoyment. Money and time are the heaviest burdens of life, and the unhappiest of all mortals are those who have more of either than they know how to use. We are convinced that happiness is never to be found, and each believes it is possessed by others, to keep alive the hope of obtaining it for himself. It's fun to get together and have something good to eat at least once a day. That's what human life is all about - enjoying things. How much better it is to weep at joy than to joy at weeping. Happiness is like a cat. If you try to coax it or call it, it will avoid you. It will never come. But if you pay no attention to it and go about your business, you'll find it rubbing up against your legs and jumping into your lap. Very little is needed to make a happy life. It is all within yourself, in your way of thinking. It doesn't take a lot to make me happy. I like to work out. I like to play ball. I like to spend time with my friends. I like to make myself better every day. I like to try to learn. It doesn't take money to do that. Live all you can; it's a mistake not to. It doesn't so much matter what you do in particular, so long as you have your life. If you haven't had that, what have you had? This life is not for complaint, but for satisfaction. It is foolish to postpone enjoyment of your ordinary life until you are more successful, more secure, or more loved than you are today. When people honor each other, there is a trust established that leads to synergy, interdependence, and deep respect. Both parties make decisions and choices based on what is right, what is best, what is valued most highly. Those who are all-rounder do not have to depend on and take the support of others. When you speak to any one, maintain the balance between your words and actions. A Person’s knowledge is complete only when he has adequate information with clear conception and quick and quality expression. A knowledgeful soul has benevolent feeling for everyone. Knowledge means understanding and understanding means power. Knowledge is might; with the internal weapon of knowledge, you can attain success in all situations. Die a living death and enlighten the lamp of knowledge so that the soul never wanders. Nourishment of mind through the churning of knowledge creates a powerful stage. Knowledge is truly meaningful only when it leads to good thoughts. A good leader is not the person who does things right, but the person who finds the right thing to do. A good leader can't get too far ahead of his followers. Leaders are the ones who keep faith with the past, keep step with the present and keep the promise to prosperity. Leadership should be born out of the understanding of the needs of those who would be affected by it. Leadership is much more an art, a belief, a condition of the heart, than a set of things to do. The visible signs of artful leadership are expressed, ultimately, in its practice. Just play, Have fun and enjoy the game; Just live, share fun and enjoy the LIFE. The need of the hour is altruistic feelings of love. Therefore, you must become master ocean of love. Love all, trust a few; Do wrong to none. "If you're a manager and don't invest time and money in your people you don't deserve them. In fact, you deserve to lose them. And if they do stay you don't deserve results because you're looking for the prize without paying the price. " Dave Anderson A good manager is one who gets the maximum from his equipments. A better manager is one who gets the maximum from business. A far better manager is one who plants seeds of thinking in the mind of his men. The flood of money that gushes into politics today is a pollution of democracy. The sea does not reward those who are too anxious, too greedy, or too impatient. To dig for treasures shows not only impatience and greed, but lack of faith. Patience, patience, patience, is what the sea teaches. Patience and faith. One should lie empty, open, choice less as a beach--waiting for a gift from the sea. Dive into bottom of the ocean, there are waves above but it is still down below. A bird sits on a tiny twig in perfect confidence. Where does it get confidence from ? Not from the twig but from the wings which can take it aloft at the slightest sign of danger. This is an art of believing in personal potential. If the entire universe together with all its wealth is given to you, still it can neither satisfy your carving nor will it be able to protect you. Peace and friendship with all mankind is our wisest policy, and I wish we may be permitted to pursue it. Your power of purity purifies the universe. Knowledge means understanding and understanding means power. In order to be free from obstacles, inculcate powers and the attributes. Your thoughts can have enough power to feed power to others to think. The power of good wishes enables the disheartened souls to experience happiness. The power of peace can calm down the fire of anger. The power of positive thought is a force to attain success in every task. The impact of your immense power of inculcation would not allow others to speak irrelevant words in front of you. Donate powers through your thoughts and donate virtues through your actions. The power of purity burns al evils to ashes. ....power is not really good or bad; it is neutral. Power itself is not negative or positive, although our feelings about it may be. Power is the potential to influence others for good or evil, to be a blessing or a scourge. Like nuclear energy, it can provide the electricity to light a city, or it can fuel the bomb that destroys it. When you are in powerful position, no upheaval in the atmosphere, people or circumstances can affect you. They are just side scenes. Progress is progress Only When it is Continuous. Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction and skillful execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives. There is one quality that one must possess to win, and that is definiteness of purpose, the knowledge of what one wants, and a burning desire to possess it. The most serious mistakes are not being made as a result of wrong answer. The truly dangerous thing is asking the wrong question. To become real gold is to mould yourself according to time. Have attention on your self that you do not become heavy-hearted in trifling matters. Be free from worry and you will experience carefree stage. Stabilize yourself in the most elevated spiritual esteem, and there will be no troubles. Difficulties have their origin deep in your own self. Stabilize yourself in the state of self-respect and all your organs will accept your orders. Do not demand respect but inculcate self-respect. Keep the treasure of happiness with you, You will never cry. A real King is one who rules upon his own sense organs. Do not create a mountain of waste thoughts, keep attention on merging them, as they are the treasure of human life. Consider your self to be an instrument and you will remain light even with responsibilities on your shoulders. Assess a situation beforehand and get prepared for the same. Remove the darkness of the mind and the world will automatically be illuminated. Make others virtuous by donating your own virtues. Reduce your desires and you reduce your problems. Remaining in your flying stage is like crossing high mountain tops of multifarious problems. All problems will end when you surrender yourself to GOD. When the lamp of the soul is lighted in life, you can easily rise above the vices. Do not let your inner state of mind come in doldrums. If your service is mixed with any selfish motive, your success will also be a mixed affair. Make yourself your constant companion and you will be relieved from repentance. Be a sample to make everything simple for others. Check your chart every night to see that you have not hurt the feelings of anyone. The stage of self respect gets respect from everyone. Here is the prime condition of success : Concentrate your energy, thought and capital exclusively upon the business in which you are engaged. Having begun on one line, resolve to fight it out on that line, to lead in it, adopt every improvement, have the best machinery, and know the most about it. Patience, persistence and perspiration make an unbeatable combination for success. Self-trust is the first secret of success. The Law of Win/Win says, "Let's not do it your way or my way; let's do it the best way. Each victory gained over one self means new strength to gain more victories. Strength of mind is the king of qualities. There is no I in TEAM. The significant problems we face can not be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them. Positive thoughts (joy, happiness, fulfillment, achievement, worthiness) have positive results (enthusiasm, calm, well-being, ease, energy, love). Negative thoughts (judgment, unworthiness, mistrust, resentment, fear) produce negative results (tension, anxiety, alienation, anger, fatigue). Tolerance is the key to all virtues. If you have to tolerate, do it with happiness, do not do it with helplessness. Transformation in vision and stage will automatically create favorable circumstances. Wise men put their trust in ideas and not in circumstances. Our bright future lies in oneness not in mutual differences. Value your life and others will also value you. In order to be saved from conflict, give respect to others and become humble. The tragedy of war is that it uses man's best to do man's worst. There is nothing that war has ever achieved that we could not better achieve without it. Mankind must put an end to war before war puts an end to mankind. War is like love, It always finds a way. War is a poor chisel to carve out tomorrow. There is only one truth about war: people die. We are all ACHIEVERS; we achieve according to our level of BELIEFS. We are all WINNERS; we win according to our level of PERSEVERANCE. One who GIVES does not oblige but the one who RECEIVES should feel obliged. We have two personalities External and Internal. Material aspect is food for External Personality and Emotional aspect is food for Internal Personality. We must have infinite faith in each other. We need people in our lives with whom we can be as open as possible. To have real conversation with people may seem like such a simple, obvious suggestion, but it involves courage and risk. We are always paid for our suspicion by finding what we suspect. If any circumstance or atmosphere influences your stage, it is your weakness. The trouble with this world is that God needs to self-actualize. We live in a world in which politics has replaced philosophy. Purity is the foundation of the new, happy and peaceful world. You sow thoughts and reap action; You sow action and reap habits; You sow habits and reap character; You sow character and reap a fortune. You can not buy people's time; you can buy their physical presence at a given place; you can even buy a measured number of their skill muscular motions per hour. But you can not buy enthusiasm... you can not buy loyalty... you can not buy the devotion of hearts, minds, or souls. You must earn these. If you can't win, make the winner look great. An elevated soul keeps his mind and intellect full of jewels of knowledge. Remove weaknesses and accumulate energy through the stage of being free from waste thoughts. Education which is not value based only degrades one's character. For away in the sunshine are my highest aspirations. I may not reach them, but I can look up and see their beauty, believe in them, and try to follow where they lead. Aspiration is more ennobling than achievement. High aims form high characters, and great objects bring out great minds. When you are aspiring to the highest place, it is honorable to reach the second or even the third rank. The world is richer for those who aspire to ever and ever reach higher and higher. You will become as small as your controlling desire; as great as your dominant aspiration. All men of action are dreamers. It is difficult to say what is impossible, for the dream of yesterday is the hope of today and reality of tomorrow. You see things and you say WHY? ; but I dream things that never were and I say WHY NOT? I had ambition not only to go farther than any man had ever been before, but as far as it was possible for man to go. Have confidence that if you have done a little thing well, you can do a bigger thing well too. Either I will find a way or I will make one. Man's mind stretched to a new idea never goes back to its original dimensions. The flame of aspiration must be so straight and so ardent that no obstacle can dissolve it. An aimless life is always a miserable life. Higher and higher : Let us be never be satisfied with what is accomplished. Daily we must aspire to conquer all mistakes, all obscurities, all ignorance's. The perfect never becomes imperfect. Good is near truth, but is not yet truth. Look at the ocean and not the wave. Do not merely endure, be unattached. Dare to come to truth even through hell. We can not see outside what we are not inside. Work purifies the heart and so leads to wisdom. Choose highest ideal and live your life up to that. Experience is the only teacher, others are learners. Do not stick to the particularization; go to the principle, to the one. Nothing can give you freedom, if you have it not already. The greatest sin is to think yourself weak. No action can give you freedom, only knowledge can make you free. No one method can suit all. All religions are going beyond reason, but reason is the only guide to get there. Instinct is like ice, reason is like water and inspiration is the subtlest form of vapor. Faith is not the belief, it is the grasp on the ultimate, an illumination. Do not waste your energy in talking, but meditate in silence. Become a dynamo of spirituality. The whole ocean is present at the back of each wave. Eat the mangos and let the others quarrel over the basket. Guess against the guess makes fight. Concentration is on one object, meditation is on a series of objects. Only those who want nothing are the masters of nature. Thank God for giving you this world as a moral gymnasium to help your development, but never imagine you can help the world. Truth must have no compromise. No two people see the same world. Clean the mind and heart, this is all about any religion. Never loose faith in yourself, you can do anything in the universe. Books are useless to us until our own book opens. Read man, he is the living poem. Inspiration is much higher than reason, but it must not contradict it. Get extensity with intensity, but not at its expense. He who struggles is better than who never attempts. Imagination will lead you to the highest even more rapidly and easily than reason. My method of work is to construct and not pull down. You can not begin too early to teach the highest spiritual truths. We only get what we deserve. Art, Science and religion are but three different ways of expressing a single truth. You are best, you are real when you are not, - a little self is gone. Respect all religions equally. Practice charity, but do not encourage beggars by giving money. Provide them with food, clothes and shelter. Help them in order to discourage laziness. Do not give bribe, Do not receive bribe. Do not yield to corruption. Never go against the law of nature. Team spirit is what gives so many companies an edge over their competitors. Good supervision is an art of getting average people to do superior work. Our business in life is not to get ahead of others, but to get ahead of ourselves - to break our own records, to outstrip our yesterday by our today. You can give without loving, but you can't love without giving. We must view young people not as empty bottles to be filled, but as candle to be lit. Life is like riding a bicycle. You don't fall off unless you stop pedaling. There is a great man who makes every man feel small. But the really great man is the man who makes everyman feel great. I am a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work, the more I have of it. Temper is what gets most of us into trouble. Pride is what keeps us there. When friends are in trouble, do not bother them by asking if there is anything you can do. Think of something appropriate and do it. Silence is a true friend that never betrays. If you are feeling low, do not despair. The sun has a sinking spell every night, but it comes back every morning. The best preparation for tomorrow is to do today's work superbly well. Courtesy costs nothing but buys everything. None has the monopoly of wisdom. Prejudice vitiates research. Actions and rewards are always linked. Effect is always based on cause. The busiest people are also the happiest. What different dose it make to the dead, the orphans, whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or the holy name of liberty? - Mahatma Gandhi. Never try to solve all the problems at once - make them line up for you one-by-one. Ensure all managers, technical specialists, and support staff spend lots of time with customers, external partners and those serving / selling customers. Every product or service we now take for granted was once silly, interesting, or just an odd curiosity. Management means, in the last analysis, the substitution of thought for brawn and muscle, of knowledge for folkways and superstition, and for cooperation for force. It means substitution for responsibility for obedience to rank, and of authority of performance for the authority of rank. Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any other one thing. Small opportunities are often the beginning of great enterprises. Do not see limits to the potential we all might reach because there are no limits to human imagination. An overburdened, Overstretched executive is the best executive is the best executive, because he or she doesn't have the time to meddle, to deal in trivia, to bother people. As long as you do not subdue the mind, you cannot get rid of your desires, you cannot control your restless mind. Hence, knowledge of Truth, subjection of mind and abandonment of desires are the joint ! Flies sit at times on the sweetmeats kept exposed for sale in the shop of a confectioner; but no sooner does a sweeper pass by with a basketful of filth than the flies leave the sweet-1 meats and sit upon the filth basket. But the honey bee... always drinks honey from the flowers. The worldly men are like flies. At times they get a momentary taste of divine sweetness, but their natural tendency for filth soon brings them back to the dunghill of the world. The good man, on the other hand, is always absorbed in the beatific contemplation of divine beauty. Sri Ramakrishna You are quaffing drink from a hundred fountains; whenever any of these yields less, your pleasure is diminished. But when the sublime fountain gushes from within you, no longer need you steal from the other fountains. Often, we are most vulnerable during moments of transition... for a pivotal moment the mind has nothing to hold on to, and in its insecurity it may suggest all kinds of things: a cigarette, an extra piece of pie. Suddenly any of these can seem fraught, with urgency though you know in the back of our mind that they are a poor use of your time. SMILE costs nothing to wear. Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former. Don't go around saying the world owes you a living; the world owes you nothing; it was here first. Those are my principles. If you don't like them I have others. This report, by its very length, defends itself against the risk of being read. Love is the answer, but while you are waiting for the answer sex raises some pretty good questions. Lord, grant me the serenity to accept the things I can not change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of those I had to kill because they pissed me off. A jury consists of twelve people who determine which client has the better lawyer. Few things are harder to put up with than the annoyance of a good example. All my life, I always wanted to be somebody. Now I see that I should have been more specific. There are three kinds of lies; lies, damned lies and statistics. Bigamy is having one wife too many. Monogamy is the same. I am not a vegetarian because I love animals; I am a vegetarian because I hate plants. It usually takes more than three weeks to prepare a good impromptu speech. Experience is that marvelous thing that enables you recognize a mistake when you make it again. As your attorney, it is my duty to inform you that it is not important that you understand what I'm doing or why you're paying me so much money. What's important is that you continue to do so. Her kisses left something to be desired - the rest of her. Sure God created man before woman.. but then you always make a rough draft before The Final Masterpiece. Definition of Stress: The confusion created when one's mind overrides the body's desire to beat or choke the living shit out of some asshole who desperately needs it. Television - a medium. So called because it is neither rare nor well-done. Marriage is the triumph of imagination over intelligence. Second marriage is the triumph of hope over experience. Health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die. A bird in the hand will probably shit on your wrist. If you want to read about love and marriage, you've got to buy two separate books. Advice is what we ask for when we already know the answer but wish we didn't. The direct use of force is such a poor solution to any problem, it is generally employed only by small children and large nations. Somewhere on this globe, every ten seconds, there is a woman giving birth to a child. She must be found and stopped. Start every day off with a smile and get it over with. Doing a thing well is often a waste of time. "I either want less corruption, or more chance to participate in it." - Ashleigh Brilliant "'It is better to be silent and be thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt." - Mark Twain "I don't want any yes-men around me. I want everybody to tell me the truth even if it costs them their jobs." - Samuel Goldwyn "A synonym is a word you use when you can't spell the word you first thought of." - Burt Bacharach "It matters not whether you win or lose; what matters is whether I win or lose." - Darrin Weinberg
Lady Astor: "Mr. Churchill, you're drunk!"
I know Kung Fu, Karate, and 47 other dangerous words. A youth becomes a man when the marks he wants to leave on the world have nothing to do with tires. The trouble with being punctual is that nobody's there to appreciate it. You spend your whole life believing that you're on the right track, only to discover that you're on the wrong train. A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on. In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. But, in practice, there is. The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it. Don't stay in bed, unless you can make money in bed. Some cause happiness wherever they go; others, whenever they go. Our limitations and success will be based, most often, on our own expectations for ourselves. What the mind dwells upon, the body acts upon. The problem is not that there are problems. The problem is expecting otherwise and thinking that having problems is a problem. The Truest help we can render an afflicted man is not to take his burden from him, but to call out his best energy, that he may be able to bear the burden. You will never be happier than you expect. To change your happiness, change your expectation. Don't dwell on what went wrong. Instead, focus on what to do next. Spend you energies on moving forward toward finding the answer. When you work, work. When you play, play. Don't mix the two. Concentrate your powers. Identify what you are particularly good at doing and do more of it. Determine what specific goal you want to achieve. Then dedicate yourself to its attainment with unswerving singleness of purpose, the trenchant zeal of a crusader. It's the constant and determined effort that breaks down all resistance and sweeps away all obstacles. Quiet minds cannot be perplexed or frightened, but go on in fortune or misfortune at their own private pace, like a clock during a thunderstorm.
When every physical and mental
resource is focused, one's power to solve a problem multiplies The will to win, the desire to succeed, the urge to reach your full potential… these are the keys that will unlock the door to personal excellence. Striving for perfection is the greatest stopper there is… It's your excuse to yourself for not doing anything. Instead, strive for excellence, doing you best. The next time a customer in your store needs to know where something is -- pick yourself up and show them. Walk them there -- WOW them, sell them what they want, then sell them something extra. Rule -- Show, don't tell. Excellence is the gradual result of always striving to do better. There is a direct relationship between joy and effort. The joy of success is in ratio to the amount of effort expended to achieve it. I can't imagine a person becoming a success who doesn't give this game of life everything he's got. In things pertaining to enthusiasm, no man is sane who does not know how to be insane on proper occasions. There is real magic in enthusiasm. It spells the difference between mediocrity and accomplishment. You don't have to be a puppet manipulated by outside powerful forces; you can become the powerful force yourself. Don't make your thoughts your prison. The obstacles you face are mental barriers which can be broken by adopting a more positive approach. Don't pray for tasks equal to your powers. Pray for powers equal to your tasks. You are bigger then anything that can happen to you. This is where you will win the battle, in the playhouse of your mind. Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear, not absence of fear. Courage is the capacity to confront what can be imagined. You are more important than your problems. A deadline is negative inspiration. Still, it's better than no inspiration at all. Don't go through life, grow through life. Inspiration is needed in geometry, just as much as in poetry. Inspiration never arrived when you were searching for it. Nobody motivates today's workers. If it doesn't come from within, it doesn't come. Fun helps remove the barriers that allow people to motivate themselves. The greatest inspiration is often born of desperation. There never was a great soul that did not have some divine inspiration. We know nothing about motivation. All we can do is write books about it. Without craftsmanship, inspiration is a mere reed shaken in the wind. Without inspiration the best powers of the mind remain dormant, there is a fuel in us which needs to be ignited with sparks. If you have zest and enthusiasm you attract zest and enthusiasm. Life does give back in kind. In things pertaining to enthusiasm, no man is sane who does not know how to be insane on proper occasions. It's always the challenge of the future, this feeling of excitement, that drives me. Let us endeavor to live so that when we come to die even the undertaker will be sorry. Life is to be lived. If you have to support yourself, you had bloody well better find some way that is going to be interesting. Life's blows cannot break a person whose spirit is warmed at the fire of enthusiasm. Like what you do. If you don't like it, do something else. Love what you do. Do what you love. Mediocre idea that generates enthusiasm will go further than a great idea that inspires no one. Men who do things without being told draw the most wages. A "No" uttered from deepest conviction is better and greater than a "Yes" merely uttered to please, or what is worse, to avoid trouble. A coward is incapable of exhibiting love; it is the prerogative of the brave. A vow is fixed and unalterable determination to do a thing, when such a determination is related to something noble which can only uplift the man who makes the resolve. All crime is a kind of disease and should be treated as such. Always aim at complete harmony of thought and word and deed. Always aim at purifying your thoughts and everything will be well. Among the many misdeeds of the British rule in India, history will look upon the act of depriving a whole nation of arms as the blackest. An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind. As long as you derive inner help and comfort from anything, keep it. Be the change you want to see in the world. Cowards can never be moral. Culture of the mind must be subservient to the heart. Fear has its use but cowardice has none. First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win. Freedom is not worth having if it does not connote freedom to err. Freedom is not worth having if it does not connote freedom to err. It passes my comprehension how human beings, be they ever so experienced and able, can delight in depriving other human beings of that precious right. Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes. Good government is no substitute for self-government. Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony. Hate the sin and love the sinner. Honest differences are often a healthy sign of progress. Honest disagreement is often a good sign of progress. I believe in equality for everyone, except reporters and photographers. I have also seen children successfully surmounting the effects of an evil inheritance. That is due to purity being an inherent attribute of the soul. I have endeavored to show that there is no real service of humanity in the profession [of medicine] and that it is injurious to mankind. I offer you peace. I offer you love . I offer you friendship. I see your beauty. I hear your need. I feel your feelings My wisdom flows from the Highest Source. I salute that Source in you. Let us work together for unity and love. Never tell your problems to anyone...20% don't care and the other 80% are glad you have them. Never explain yourself. Your friends don't need it and your enemies wont believe it. Forgive your enemies, but never, never forget their names. You must experience and accept the extremes. Because if the contrast is lost, you lose appreciation; and when you lose appreciation, you lose the value of everything. The true measure of a man is how he treats someone who can do him absolutely no good. Being sad with the right people is better than being happy with the wrong ones. Throughout life people will make you mad, disrespect you and treat you bad. Let God deal with the things they do, cause hate in your heart will consume you too. If your problem has a solution then...why worry about it? If your problem doesn't have solution then...why worry about it? Laugh when you can, apologize when you should, and let go of what you can't change. Kiss slowly, play hard, forgive quickly, take chances, give everything and have no regrets. Life's too short to be anything but happy. The ultimate measure of man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy. Pain never really goes away; you just elevate and get used to it by growing stronger. You have to take the good with the bad, smile with the sad, love what you've got, remember what you had, learn from your mistakes, but never regret, people change, things go wrong, but remember life goes on! Always put yourself in the other's shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the person too. Sometimes the people who hurt us the most are people who were hurt more than us. Our tears are what happens when it rains deep inside our hearts and we cannot hold the rain any longer. I like to pretend that everything's alright. Because when everybody else thinks you're fine, sometimes you forget for a while that you're not. Reputation is what men and women think of us; character is what God and angels know of us. The things that made me stronger are the ones that didn't let me sleep at first.

What Money Can and can't :
The reason a dog has so many friends is that he wags his tail instead of his tongue. There is no psychiatrist in the world like a puppy licking your face. A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself. The average dog is a nicer person than the average person. Dogs love their friends & bite their enemies, quite unlike people, who are incapable of pure love & always have to mix love & hate. Anybody who doesn't know what soap tastes like never washed a dog. If your dog is fat, you aren't getting enough exercise . Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea. If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you; that is the principal difference between a dog and a man. Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole. If you think dogs can't count, try putting three dog biscuits in your pocket and then give him only two of them.
