Festive Season Feeling Not So Festive This Year.

Reading time: 1 – 2 minutes

Tough Times

Today I would first like to wish everyone a Happy and Safe Christmas/Festive Season. This is a great time to put all those personal growth and self improvement reading and lessons into action. With the number of social and family events that occur at this time of the year it is great opportunity to put the theory into practice.

I am not sure of the original author, so apologies for not
giving credit where due. I didn’t want to keep this a secret
from those who may benefit from it in times like these…

“Said the big white rooster, “Gosh all Hemlock, things are tough,
Seems that worms are getting scarce and I cannot find enough.
What’s become of all those fat ones is a mystery to me;
There were thousands through the rainy spell, but now where can they be?”

Want and Desire

Reading time: < 1 minute

What is it? Do you want…..or do you desire…

As we’re closing out the current year many people over the next few weeks will be looking back on 2008 and as part of their personal growth plan start setting goals for 2009.

Do any of the following sound familiar?

“I want to be financially independent”
“I want to travel more.”
“I want to help more asked [fit in an area of giving]”
“I want more time with my family”
“I want to fire my boss”

Patience…

Reading time: < 1 minute

Forms of patience

As I grow through personal growth and self-improvement I have come to realize that there are different forms of patience.

At one end of the scale, patience can take the form of the passive act of waiting without annoyance, aggravation, agitation or complaint.

Success on any scale requires you to accept responsibility.

It’s up to you to choose the thoughts and actions
that will lead you to success.

Reading time: < 1 minute

GOING BACK TO STEP FORWARD

Part of my journey in personal growth, development and self help
has required me to spend time looking inside me and being honest

and personal growth.

Years yes many years.
