Only Two days

There are only Two 

days in a year that

nothing can be done.

One is called

"Yesterday"

and

the other is called 

"Tomorrow"

SO, 

today is the right day to

Love,

Believe,

Do,

and 

Mostly Live!

~ Dali Lama ~

You don't develop courage by being happy

You don't develop courage

 by being happy

 in your relationships everyday.

 You develop it

 by surviving difficult times

 and

 challenging adversity.

~ Epicurus ~

Happiness is always found in the moment

Happiness

 is always found in the moment

 that is here, now.

 Happiness has been sent to you

 in advance

 by God.

 It is here,

 in this moment,

 if you will seize it...

and share it.

- NDW -

Yesterday was Yesterday

Yesterday was Yesterday,

 and

 it has nothing to do with Today.

 You are not who you were

 Yesterday.

 Each moment

 is the

 Moment of Creation.

- NDW -

Get and Give

We make a living

 by what we get.

...

 But we make a life

 by what we give.

- Winston Churchill

Always a Student

You are

 always a student,

 never a master.

 You have

 to keep

 moving

 forward.

~ Conrad Hall ~ 

Do something everyday

Do something

 everyday

 that you don't want to do;

 this is the golden rule

 for acquiring the habit

 of doing your duty

 without pain.

~ Mark Twain ~ 

Doing the best at this moment

Doing the best at this moment

 puts you

 in the best place

 for the next moment.

~ Oprah Winfrey ~ 

An Arrow can only be shot by pulling it backwards

An Arrow can only be shot by pulling it backwards. 

So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, 

it means that its going to launch 

you into something great.

So just focus, 

and keep aiming.

Let go of your insecurities

Let go of your insecurities.

let go of your pain, 

you are limitless

nothing is holding you back

you are perfect

you are infinite

smile, love, laugh,

and dont forget to live

Your inner-state

Be more interested

 in your inner-state

 in any given situation

 than what is happening

 in the outer situation.

Asking

 "what is my inner-state at THIS moment"

 is always primary.

 Dealing with external situations,

 the outcome of this situation

 or that situation

 or this person

 agrees with me

 or does not agree with me…

 all these are secondary things

 ~Eckart Tolle~

Let each person worry about Self

Let each person in a relationship
worry about Self
  - what Self is being,
  - doing, and having;
  - what Self is wanting, asking, giving;
  - what Self is seeking, creating,
    experiencing,

Then all relationships would magnificently serve their purpose — and their participants!

Cause another to remember

Cause another to remember.

That which you wish for yourself,

 give to another. . .

What I give to another

 I give myself.

Normal is not something to aspire to

Normal

is not something to aspire to,

 it's something

 to get away from

- Jody Foster -

You can know yourself to be generous

You can know yourself to be generous,
but unless you do something
which displays generosity,
you have nothing but a concept.
You can know yourself to be kind,
but unless you do someone a kindness,
you have nothing but an idea about yourself.

First comes thought

First comes thought;

 then organization

 of that thought,

 into ideas and plans;

 then transformation

 of those plans into reality.

The beginning,

 as you will observe,

 is in your imagination.

- Napoleon Hill -

Don't let your mind wander

Don't let your mind wander,
                 it's too little to be left out alone

The book your soul is writing

Dreams

 are illustrations from the book

 your soul is writing

 about you

 ~ Marsha Norman ~

Once you make a commitment...

What you need to know is

 ...that you need

 to make a commitment and,

 once you make it,

 then 

life will give you some answers.

When pursing our own self-interest

It is important

 that when pursing our own self-interest

 we should be “wise selfish” 

and not

 “foolish selfish”.

 Being foolish selfish

 means pursuing our own interests

 in a narrow, short sighted way.

 Being wise selfish means

 taking a broader view

 and recognizing

 that our own

 long-term individual interest

 lies

 in the welfare of everyone.

 Being wise selfish means

 being compassionate.
