heaven OR hell; it's in YOUR hands

I stood before 250 business leaders and asked them: "What percentage of people would you say are in the wrong job?" Their almost unanimous response was 70%. Perhaps you are one of those people. I believe that heaven = every person doing what they most love. And that hell = every person doing work they hate.

Looked at another way, work you hate is like wiping five sevenths out of your life; you end up living for weekends and holidays only. It's like living to seventy, but dieing at twenty.

To those who's "I have to do" list is longer than their "I love to do" list, I invite you to turn the tables. Do whatever it takes, as long as you break out of your rut and start living; every day of the working week, every week of the year [not just weekends and holidays].

is time on your side?

We don't need a redistribution of wealth. What we need is a redistribution of time.

what colour is happiness?

always look on the bright side of life :)

After 5000 years of recorded human history, you wonder, 'What part of 2,000,000 sunrises doesn't a pessimist understand?'

Change the way you look at things, and the things you look at change.

The Victor

If you think you are beaten, you are.
If you think you dare not, you don’t
If you like to win but think you can’t,
It’s almost a cinch you won’t.

If you think you’ll lose, you’re lost.
For out in the world we find
Success begins with a fellow’s will
It’s all in the state of mind.

If you think you are outclassed, you are.
You’ve got to think high to rise.
You’ve got to be sure of yourself before
You can ever win the prize.

Life’s battles don’t always go
To the stronger or faster man.
But sooner or later, the man who wins
Is the man who thinks he can.

-- C.W. Longenecker
