Life is Marathon
Life is evergreen, it is always flowing, and it
never stops. Life is an ongoing process and is never stagnant. Life is a
Marathon, which goes on and on…
“Life is not a small race or sprint, which just
stops after some 10 or 15 years. You have to get up every day with a new idea.
A new sprint to start on. And, you have to get to bring it to work, everyday”,
are the words spoken by Jack Welch, ex-CEO of GE.
You need a cause to jump everyday from the worst,
which you must have faced in the past. You have to generate energy within
yourself to jump out from the worst. You must know why you need to come out
from the bad phase.
Every morning is a gift of God to you. Once your
conscious mind ticks and says, “It's morning”, immediately, you must thank God
for the new day. Thank God for that one more day to live life. Your next step
is to get the new flash from your subconscious mind and bring it to your work
place.
Another way to start a day is to face the mirror and
pass on three positive affirmations, which you have developed for yourself. Let
it pass on in every nerve of yours. Say these words very confidently standing
in front of the mirror. Enjoy the day and its every moment as if it is the last
day of your life.
Each day is to be lived uniquely for creating everlasting
impressions on this planet, on family, on work place, on friends and society.
Recently, Bill Gates has demonstrated a way of
living. Suppose if he stops working, and windups his business, and starts
spending his money, about 10 million everyday. Still, he will be able to spend
his money atleast up to 725 years. Even though possessing such an immense
wealth, he is still working with same zeal and passion as a new comer, and
everyday he is eagerly going to his workplace with new ideas puffed with new
energy.
Remember: Everyday...you need that extra energy and
power crystals in your heart, hand and head to add sparkle of joy to your life.

The Second Life Platform
- Greetings! I'm not sure how many of you have heard of or are sensitive to Second Life and its related entities. However, Second Life is a fantastic platform to mimmick real life business operations in a real currency based economy. There are plenty of successful stories for creative individuals, but I'd highly suggest doing your research and appreciating Second Life for what it is, and what it isn't.

Hi JBunion,
I've heard about the site. So are you currently a member? And more importantly, have you tried to open a store front in that virtual world?
Re: Charge what you're worth
- [quote="Tami Szabo":292ze3jd]People will pay you what you ask. Very few will ever up the price. You are the one who decided what you are worth. The key is that we believe our services are worth the price we are asking.[/quote:292ze3jd]
Hi Tami,
You're absolutely right. In "Think and Grow Rich", Jessie B. Rittenhouse says "For Life is a just employer, He gives you what you ask, But once you have set the wages, Why, you must bear the task. I worked for a menial's hire Only to learn, dismayed , That any wage I had asked of Life, Life would have willingly paid" (Napoleon Hill 35).
I think the same can be said when setting prices on eBay or Craigslist, especially when people are trying to haggle you.
Re: Favorite Christmas movies
- [quote="OmnivoreInk":1rxsgr0t]I do have to say I've never liked[i:1rxsgr0t] It's A Wonderful Life[/i:1rxsgr0t]. He spends all his life having his hopes and dreams shattered, feeling miserable, and its only at the end of his life that he can look back and realize how many friends he has, etc. But that doesn't change the fact that up until that point he was miserable![/quote:1rxsgr0t]
I love the sentimentality around watching that movie with your Mom! Chtistmas is made up of all those sentimental things.
"It's A Wonderful Life" is all about perspective, much in the same way that Scrooge is 'realigned' in Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol" - which I listen to on CD every year (sometimes twice!)
Happy Christmas Everyone!
Regards
Martin
