Don’t save the best until last!
“The best thing to hold onto in life, is each other.”
Audrey Hepburn
Do you sometimes find that the end of the week comes around and you have done lots of ‘work’, but none of the things you wanted to do for the people in your life.
So often the pressured nature of modern working life means that your life outside of work takes second place.

The Quick Put-down
“Let nothing dim the light that shines from within.”
Maya Angelou
Do you know someone who is a master of the quick put-down; someone who always criticizes you, judges you or generally brings you down?
Before you fall into the trap of blaming him or her for making you feel bad, remind yourself that nobody can make you feel anything.

Take It Easy and Enjoy Life
Can you remember your childhood days? During those times, nothing yet seemed complicated – all we had to think about were crayons, cookies, or Santa Claus. We didn’t care about the things we didn’t know because we were just too oblivious of the things that might bother us.
But as we grow older, we get anxious with the things that surround us – life and death, loving and parting, success and failure, to name a few. We find that almost everyday, we are obliged to be concerned about people or events.
Nevertheless, always keep this in mind: Don’t take things as if they are responsible for the way you feel. Events or situations do not trouble you. How you look at them does.

Create Your Life
“Your life will be defined, as much by the things you say no to, as the things to which you say yes.”
Anon.
When you are trying to create your best life, it can sometimes be hard to resist temptation to settle for an easier, safer, more secure or simply faster option.
Having a choice isn’t a bad thing; a rich and interesting life will always be filled with options, and compromises are an essential part of getting what you want out of life.

The Difference Between Gratitude & Attachment
There is a difference between feeling gratitude and appreciation for something, and feeling attachment to something.
Appreciation and gratitude are states of pure love, while attachment contains fear – fear of losing or not having what you are attached to.
When it comes to something you want in your life, appreciation and gratitude attracts, and attachment pushes away.

Be your potential!
“The difference between what we are doing, and what we are capable of doing, would solve most of the world’s problems.”
Mahatma Gandhi
Are you a dreamer?
Do you ever find yourself thinking about things you could do, or would do, if only time or money or circumstance would get out of your way.

Are You Just Mediocre
“Mediocrity is self-inflicted. Genius is self-bestowed.”
Walter Russell
Let me ask you this can you imagine what your life would be like if you only ever gave your best efforts to what you were doing?
Imagine the great heights you could achieve, the things you could accomplish and dreams you could make your reality.
