The Present



"Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some five balls in the air. You name them - work, family, health, friends and spirit and you're keeping all of these in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. But the other four balls - family, health, friends and spirit are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged or even shattered. They will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for balance in your life." How?

Don't undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different that each of us is special.

Don't set your goals by what other people deem important. Only you know what is best for you.

Don't take for granted the things closest to your heart. Cling to them as you would your life, for without them, life is meaningless.

Don't let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past or for the future. By living your life one day at a time, you live ALL the days of your life.

Don't give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.

Don't be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect. It is this fragile thread that binds us to each other.

Don't be afraid to encounter risks. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.

Don't shut love out of your life by saying it's impossible to find. The quickest way to receive love is to give; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; and the best way to keep love is to give it wings.

Don't run through life so fast that you forget not only where you've been, but also where you are going.

Don't forget that a person's greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated.

Don't be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless, a treasure you can always carry easily.

Don't use time or words carelessly. Neither can be retrieved.

Life is not a race, but a journey to be savored each step of the way.

Yesterday is History, Tomorrow is a Mystery and Today is a gift. That's why we call it The Present.

If you want to be healthy, study health. If you want to be wealthy, study wealth.

I'm very grateful to belong to the Create Abuncance 2020 Business Community just recently. I saw the following video and I found it very educating. So I reach out to every person who still does not know this concept of "What the Poor, Middle Class, and Wealthy buy on PAY DAY". Grab your pen and paper and take down the simple notes that will produce the extraordinary results.

Serenity Prayer


Photo by Mayee. More at http://emmezzerr.multiply.com

"God grant me the SERENITY to accept the things I cannot change,
COURAGE to change the things I can,
and WISDOM to know the difference."

"To those I have wronged, I ask FORGIVENESS,
to those I may have helped, I wish I did MORE,
to those who helped me, I SINCERELY THANK YOU!
May the resurrection of Christ empower us
and to have more faith and believe that his death and resurrection
granted us eternal salvation and grace."

Take Care

Jim Rohn said, we usually say "You take care of me and I'll take care of you."

I learned a lot when he modified it to read as:

"I'll take care of me, for you...
if you, will please take care of you, for me."
