Food for Thought

1] Prayer is not a "spare wheel" that you pull out when in trouble; it is a "steering wheel" that directs us in the right path throughout life.

2] Do you know why a car's WINDSHIELD is so large & the rear view mirror is so small? Because our PAST is not as important as our FUTURE. So, look ahead and move on.

3] Friendship is like a BOOK. It takes few seconds to burn, but it takes years to write.

4] All things in life are temporary. If going well enjoy it, they will not last forever. If going wrong don't worry, they can't last long either.

5] Old friends are like Gold! New friends are Diamonds! If you get a Diamond, don't forget the Gold! Because to hold a Diamond, you always need a base of Gold!

6] Often when we lose hope and think this is the end, GOD smiles from above and says, "Relax, sweetheart, it's just a bend, not the end!

7] When GOD solves your problems, you have faith in HIS abilities; when GOD doesn't solve your problems HE has faith in your abilities.

8] A blind person asked St. Anthony: "Can there be anything worse than losing eye sight?" He replied: "Yes, losing your vision."

9] When you pray for others, God listens to you and blesses them; and sometimes, when you are safe and happy, remember that someone has prayed for you.

10] WORRYING does not take away tomorrow's TROUBLES; it takes away today's PEACE.

If you really enjoy this, PLEASE pass to others. It may brighten someone's day... Praying for love and peace .

Schedule Your Downtime

Sometimes it is a good idea just to schedule your down time. In other words, if you are feeling down and depressed, decide for how long you want to be in this state. Tell yourself: 'For the next three days I am just going to be out of it. Then I'll go for it again.'

Then take time off. Be depressed and demotivated. Don't feel guilty about it. You have scheduled it. "Enjoy it" Knowing that when the three days are up you will feel better, see things differently and be ready to face the world again and be productive.

This approach has REALLY worked for me. Make it work for you too.

Have a Great Attitude

With a great attitude we can turn obstacles into opportunities and struggles into success. We subconsciously choose our attitude every moment of every day. We need to become conscious of our attitudes though, because it is easy to react to challenges with a destructive attitude. We can then make the situation worse. But with a constructive attitude, one that is open, teachable, gracious, understanding and co-operative, we will come through the challenge a stronger person, more reliable and a greater asset to our department and organization.

Start being aware of your attitude towards different people and situations.

Is your attitude helping you to win or lose?

Man that's exciting.

Quick Stress Relief Tip

Have you ever felt that the day is too much to handle?
So stressed and frustrated that you just want to pack your things and disappear to an exotic island and forget about everything?

Well I have found this wonderful little technique to help relieve the stress from the day, you can apply it anywhere and anytime. It only takes a minute.

• Close your eyes and imagine yourself in a safe and comfortable place.
  
• Breathe in deeply through your nose. Hold for two counts. Breathe out through your mouth.
  
• Breathe in "Peace" through your nose as you tense your neck and facial muscles. Hold for a few seconds and then breathe out "Tension" through your mouth as you relax.
  
• Now breathe in "Tranquility" through your nose while tensing your back, arms, chest and stomach. Hold for a few seconds and then breathe out "Frustration" as you relax.
  
• Inhale "Harmony" through your nose while you tense your buttock, legs and feet. Exhale "Anger" through your mouth as you relax.
  
• Feel completely relaxed and safe.
  

Repeat this technique once or twice more as needed. You will immediately feel better as your tension dissipates. You will be ready to overcome any challenges that lie before you.

Nothing Happens When Nothing Happens

Have you noticed? When no one does anything, nothing gets done! "No, you're not serious?!!" you may ask in disbelief and wonder ;-)
We live like that often though, allowing frustrations to mount because we have not done something about them. Like cleaning the Garage (coz you can never find anything), asking the neighbour not to park opposite our driveway (coz we almost cause an accident every time we leave the house), resolving that conflict with a colleague – whatever the frustration is.
Perhaps we are too busy, or the job is too large. But every time we become aware of the problem the level of frustration rises.

"If it's to be, it's up to me" Just do it! Sort it out, before it drives you insane.
You'll feel great that you have done something about it. It will be one less "thing" to worry about. Get it done. You can!

You Have Truly Incredible Potential

"There lies within each person a huge reservoir of untapped potential for achievement, success, happiness, health and greater prosperity. It's like an ocean unsailed, a new continent unexplored, a world of possibilities waiting to be released and channeled toward some great good." - Jim Rohn

I love this quote, because it reminds me that no matter what I have done, there is still so much more I can do to touch my world and impact it for good. What awesome things would you still love to do with your life? Don't think for a moment that you have nothing more to contribute. You have incredible potential inside, "waiting to be released and channeled toward some great good."


I look forward to reading your success story one day.

Affirmations: (Just read them to yourself)
I do great things with my life

Within me are many hidden talents

How to Earn More

Network marketing, does it work? Some of you would say that it does not. Well you are right!

YOU must MAKE it work.

Do you want to earn more?

Would you like to spend more time with your family and friends?
Are you sick and tired of your job?
Are you tired of being told what to do and when you can do it?
Is there too much month left at the end of the money?
If you really want to, you can change that. The biggest problem today is that most people are content with where they are, their "Comfort Zone". 

Are you happy with your life and your income?

We live in a fast paced world. Instant calls, instant coffee and instant supper. This has unfortunately encouraged the lack of patience in our society where most people want instant results. What I will be telling you in this series of posts will not give you instant results, and you will not read it in an instant either. If you are looking for something instant then please have a look at the top right corner of the screen. There you will find a little "X", please click on it and it will close this window in an instant so you can keep on searching for the rest of your life for the instant fix.
