Wish you all a great blessed day & leave you with this thought.

Beauty is not in the face, it is a light in the heart. Beauty is eternity gazing at itself in a mirror. Have a nice day.

 

Thought Of Today

  

 

What's holding you back ?

What things are holding you back, preventing you from reaching your full potential? We tend to avoid thinking about such things, because they can be painful.

Or we blame our troubles and lack of progress on someone else. Avoiding the real issue may "feel" better at the moment. Yet it does nothing to move us forward.

The moment you honestly and clearly face your limitations, you begin to transcend them. Yes, it involves effort to work on your shortcomings. In the end, though it will be less effort than you would spend continually working against them.

Discovering your limitations gives you a powerful opportunity to be more effective. Once you remove something that's holding you back, you're finished fighting it. That gives you more energy to put into achieving your goals.

Take a good, hard look at your fears, your assumptions, your weaknesses. Admit them, and put your effort into overcoming them. It will pay a lifetime of dividends. -- Ralph Marston

Personal Power

 

�?FONT size=6>The deep root of failure in our lives is to think, ‘Oh how useless and powerless I am.�?It is essential to think strongly and forcefully, ‘I can do it,�?without boasting or fretting.�?

-- Dalai Lama

Angeles Arrien says that whether we are male or female, we need to develop three kinds of power. People who hold these three powers cannot be ignored.

1).Power of presence �?Being really present in each moment
2. Power of communication �?Speaking my truth
3. Power of position �?Being willing to take a stand

�?FONT size=6>A man’s true state of power and riches is to be in himself.�?- Henry Ward Beecher

�?FONT size=6>We are no longer puppets being manipulated by outside powerful forces; we become the powerful force ourselves.�?- Leo Buscaglia

The Soul Journey �?a 6 e-book program by Andrew Schneider �?an in-depth, practical guide to healing the personality and developing soul consciousness.

Take a journey through the traps of ego. A journey through consciousness. A journey into a life of meaning, purpose, joy and service. Are you ready for the journey of your life?

What are you procrastinating ?

"The greatest amount of wasted time is the time not getting started." -- Dawson Trotman

Procrastination seriously drains our energy and our morale. What remains undone nags at us.

What are you avoiding? Make a list of items and then review each one. Does it really need to be done ? After you've reviewed your list, prioritize it and start one task today.

Please do not procrastinate taking one minute to write down your answer to this question. Capture it on paper and this will help build awareness, commitment and discipline.

"How soon not now, becomes never." -- Martin Luther

"Talk does not cook rice." - Chinese proverb

"Do you know what happens when you give a procrastinator a good idea? Nothing!" - Donald Gardner

Never have time for what you really want in life? Take control of the time of your life by changing your mind. Understand time from a higher perspective. Click here.
