Waiting can be very powerful. If you can wait, you can sometimes achieve something you couldn’t have today. Things happen when the time is right…when we’re ready, when God is read, when the world is ready. Give up, let go, but keep the goal on your list.
Melody Beattie

Learn to work harder on yourself than you do on your job. I’ve worked hard on my personal development, and I must admit that this has been the most challenging assignment of all. This business of personal development lasts a lifetime. But here’s the great axiom of life: To have more than you’ve got, become more than you are. Unless you change how you are, you’ll always have what you’ve got. – Jim Rohn, from his classic “Lessons on Life” gift book.
“How do I define success? Let me tell you, money’s pretty nice. But having a lot of money does not automatically make you a successful person. What you want is money and meaning. You want your work to be meaningful, because meaning is what brings the real richness to your life.” Oprah Winfrey
“Don’t aim for success if you want it; just do what you love and believe in, and it will come naturally.”
David Frost

“Regrets for things you did can be tempered by time; it is regret for the things you did not do that is inconsolable” Sydney J. Harris
SLOW DOWN
Have you ever watched kids on a merry-go-round?
Or listened to the rain slapping on the ground?
Ever followed a butterfly’s erratic flight?
Or gazed at the sun into the fading night?
You better slow down.
Don’t dance so fast.
Time is short. The music won’t last.
Do you run through each day on the fly?
When you ask how are you, do you hear the reply?
When the day is done, do you lie in your bed?
With the next hundred chores running through your head?
You better slow down.
Don’t dance so fast.
Time is short. The music won’t last.
Ever told your child, we’ll do it tomorrow?
And in your haste, not see his sorrow?
Ever lost touch, let a good friendship die.
Cause you never had time to call and say “Hi”?
You better slow down.
Don’t dance so fast.
Time is short. The music won’t last
When you run so fast to get somewhere
You miss half the fun of getting there.
When you worry and hurry through your day
It is like an unopened gift thrown away.
Life is not a race, do take it slower.
Hear the music, before the song is over.
Affirmations have the ability to transform bad habits into good habits. They allow you to be and stay mentally focused. Affirmations have the power to help you live the life you want. Think about this… how many successful people out there say to themselves, “I’m not that great… there are so many people out there that are better than me?” The answer is none!
If you want to make friends, treat people unselfishly
Dogs don’t read books on psychology but they know what to do because they are interested in people.
