NEVER QUIT!

I want to share one story and there's a phenomenal lesson in it. It’s a story about one boy, Raymond.  Raymond is a big guy and when Raymond was in high school that’s quite a long time ago. Raymond was on the swimming team, and he was a good swimmer, he was a very good swimmer. The coach really like having Raymond on the team because he was such a strong swimmer. He was strong because he was big, and he liked it.  It’s probably much the same almost everywhere if you’re on a swimming team in school or in college. You probably train very early in the morning. And the same way Raymond leaving the house at around five o’clock and practice swimming. And this went on for quite a while.  And one day Raymond and his father were in the kitchen. Father was in kitchen when he came in. And Raymond’s wandering around wandering around and he just don’t know what it is. So anyway, Raymond he’s talking, he said, “Dad can I talk to you for a minute?” And Dad said, “S...

The Key to 'BOUNCE BACK'!

We all want to be happy. We often set our goals around things that we believe will make us “happy.” For example: • I want a new home • I want to find my soulmate • I want to get a new job/business/profession that I love • I want to make X amount a year • I want to travel the world Those are just a few examples of things one might want to achieve, and you also have a few of your own you could easily add. All those things are great, of course, and if we go back to the last time we achieved something significant in our life, definitely it did make us happy. However, the question is: how long were we happy for? Often when we achieve something great, we are happy for a certain amount of time. Then eventually that happiness wanes, and we jump on to the next “goal” or the next achievement to conquer (so we can be happy again). This type of happiness is equivalent to being on a roller coaster ride that just never ends. Up and down, up and down, up and down! ...

Kiss Yourself!

If we are true to ourselves, we cannot be false to anyone else! Really you have got to get to a point where you can kiss yourself.  What do you like about yourself, what is really good about you? What can you recognize? We are not talking about going on an ego trip. We are talking about the healthy conscious appreciation for who we are! We are God’s highest form of creation. What do we do really well? Think about it. We know, if by focusing on what we do well that is going to inspire us to do whatever we are doing even better. Better is a beautiful word. It does not matter how well we have been doing it, we can do it better.  Really we need to think and ask,  What do I do really well? What is really good about me?  What should I really appreciate about me?  At least, write down just five points on a little piece of paper carry them around with you, read it, focus on it and be grateful about it! And every once in a while, ki...

Purpose, Vision, Goals!

Do we have a definite purpose that guides our ambitions, vision, and goals? It doesn’t matter how you think you arrived here on this planet or under whose direction the fact remains that each of us has specific talents and gifts that are uniquely coded within our own DNA. As you go through life, you don’t just pick up things you like doing by chance. You discover what you’re good at because you were meant to discover it, just as you were meant to figure out what your fingers do, and how your elbows work. Your unique gifts are hardwired into your system just as surely as your lungs are given their blueprint to breathe. And it’s from these specific talents and gifts that you’re able to define and determine your definite purpose … the reason why you’re here. What’s in you cannot be found in another living human being. In fact, it’s quite possible that what you bring to the table hasn’t been duplicated—ever—since time began. That’s right! This “purpose” is serious business. ...
