Don't just have career or academic goals. Set goals to give you a balanced, successful life. I use the word balanced before successful. Balanced means ensuring your health, relationships, mental peace are all in good order. There is no point of getting a promotion on the day of your breakup. There is no fun in driving a car if your back hurts. Shopping is not enjoyable if your mind is full of tensions. "Life is one of those races in nursery school where you have to run with a marble in a spoon kept in your mouth. If the marble falls, there is no point coming first. Same is with life where health and relationships are the marble. Your striving is only worth it if there is harmony in your life. Else, you may achieve the success, but this spark, this feeling of being excited and alive, will start to die. ....... One thing about nurturing the spark - don't take life seriously. Life is not meant to be taken seriously, as we are really temporary here. We are like a pre-paid card...

Doubt leads to Anxiety and Fear, Fear leads to Hatred, Hatred ends with Violence. Jealousy and Greed are Twin Sisters - Keep these under control Start and end the day in love - You will have permanent peace

Written By Regina Brett, 90 years old, of The Plain Dealer, Cleveland, Ohio. "To celebrate growing older, I once wrote the 45 lessons life taught me. It is the most-requested column I've ever written. My odometer rolled over to 90 in August, so here is the column once more: 1. Life isn't fair, but it's still good. 2. When in doubt, just take the next small step. 2. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone. 3. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and parents will. Stay in touch. 4. Pay off your credit cards every month. 5. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree. 6. Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone. 7. Don't save it for a special occasion. Today is special. 8. It's OK to get angry with God. He can take it. 9. Save for retirement starting with your first pay check. 10. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile. 11. Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present...

On the day when you see us old, weak and weary…… Have patience - and do try to understand us……. If we get dirty when eating…and.. If we cannot dress on our own… Please bear with us and remember the times we spent feeding you and dressing you up. If, when we speak to you, we repeat the same things over and over again… do not interrupt us… When you were small, we had to read to you the same story a thousand and one times until you went to sleep. ...listen to us. When we do not want to have a shower, neither shame us nor scold us….. Remember when we had to chase you with your thousand excuses to get you to the shower? When you see our ignorance of new technologies…. Help us navigate our way through these worldwide webs. . We taught you how to do so many things… To eat the right foods, to dress appropriately, To fight for your rights…. When at some moments we loose the memory or the thread of our conversation……...let us have the necessary time to remember… and if we cannot, do not become n...

Never underestimate your Clients' Complaint, no matter how funny it might seem! This is a real story that happened between the customer of General Motors and its Customer-Care Executive A complaint was received by the Pontiac Division of General Motors: ‘This is the second time I have written to you, and I don't blame you for not answering me, because I sounded crazy, but it is a fact that we have a tradition in our family of Ice-Cream for dessert after dinner each night, but the kind of ice cream varies so, every night, after we've eaten, the whole family votes on which kind of ice cream we should have and I drive down to the store to get it. It's also a fact that I recently purchased a new Pontiac and since then my trips to the store have created a problem ..... You see, every time I buy a vanilla ice-cream, when I start back from the store my car won't start. If I get any other kind of ice cream, the car starts just fine. I want you to know I'm seri...

When I Take a long time to finish, I am slow. When my boss takes a long time, he is thorough. When I don't do it, I am lazy. When my boss does not do it, he is busy. When I do something without being told, I am trying to be smart. When my boss does the same, he takes the initiative. When I please my boss, I am apple polishing. When my boss pleases his boss, he is cooperating. When I make a mistake, I' am an idiot. When my boss makes a mistake, he's only human. When I am out of the office, I am wondering around. When my boss is out of the office, he's on business. When I am on a day off sick, I am always sick. When my boss is a day off sick, he must be very ill. When I apply for leave, I must be going for an interview. When my boss applies for leave, it's because he's overworked. When I do good, my boss never remembers. When I do wrong, he never forgets.

Be not so busy making a living that you forget to make a life. Tomorrow is just an idea, but today is happening right now! Stay Positive! Try hard to get what you like or you will be forced to like what you get. Don't tell your problems to people: 80% don't care; and the other 20% are glad you have them. Live for Today. Plan for Tomorrow. Party Tonight. Punctuality: Being punctual is not only polite.... It does not waste other people's time. Time: It's not time which needs to be managed; It is ourselves. If we keep our customers happy... they will keep us in business! Watch your thoughts, for they become words. Watch your words, for they become actions. Watch your actions, for they become habits. Watch your habits, for they become character. Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny. Courage: Is what it takes to stand up and speak. Is also what it takes to sit down and listen Essence of Gita: Whatever happened was good Whatever is happening is also good What...

A six-year-old boy told his father he wanted to marry the little girl across the street. The father, being modern and well-schooled in handling children, hid his smile behind his hand. "That's a serious step," he said. "Have you thought it out completely?" "Yes," his young son answered. "We can spend one week in my room and the next in hers. It's right across the street, so I can run home if I get scared of the dark." "How about transportation?" the father asked. "I have my wagon, and we both have our tricycles," the little boy answered. The boy had an answer to every question the father raised. Finally, in exasperation, his dad asked, "What about babies? When you're married, you're liable to have babies, you know." "We've thought about that, too," the little boy replied. "We're not going to have babies. Every time she lays an egg, I'm going to step on it!"

Don't argue with an idiot; people watching may not be able to tell the difference. Marriage changes passion. Suddenly you're in bed with a relative. A good friend will come and bail you out of jail ... but, a true friend will be sitting next to you saying, "Wow ... that was fun!" I signed up for an exercise class and was told to wear loose-fitting clothing. If I HAD any loose-fitting clothing, I wouldn't have signed up in the first place! Wouldn't you know it .... Brain cells come and brain cells go, but FAT cells live forever. Life is like a roll of toilet paper. The closer it gets to the end, the faster it goes.

After twenty-five years in the same parish, Father O'Shaunessey was saying his farewells at his retirement dinner. An eminent member of the congregation - a leading politician - had been asked to make a presentation and a short speech, but was late arriving. So the priest took it upon himself to fill the time, and stood up to the microphone: "I remember the first confession I heard here twenty-five years ago and it worried me as to what sort of place I'd come to... That first confession remains the worst I've ever heard. The chap confessed that he'd stolen a TV set from a neighbour and lied to the police when questioned, successfully blaming it on a local scallywag. He said that he'd stolen money from his parents and from his employer; that he'd had affairs with several of his friends' wives; that he'd taken hard drugs, and had slept with his sister and given her VD. You can imagine what I thought... However I'm pl...

While a man was polishing his new car, his 4 yr old son picked stone & scratched lines on the side of the car. In anger, the man took the child’s hand & hit it many times, not realizing he was using a wrench. At the hospital, the child lost all his fingers due to multiple fractures. When the child saw his father…. With painful eyes he asked ‘Dad when will my fingers grow back?’ Man was so hurt and speechless. He went back to car and kicked it a lot of times. Devastated by his own actions….. . sitting in front of that car he looked at the scratches, child had written ‘LOVE YOU DAD’. The next day that man committed suicide. . .... Anger and Love have no limits; choose the later to have a beautiful & lovely life…. Things are to be used and people are to be loved, But the problem in today’s world is that, People are used and things are loved…….

After ten years of apprenticeship, Tenno achieved the rank of Zen teacher. One rainy day, he went to visit the famous master Nan-in. When he walked in, the master greeted him with a question, "Did you leave your wooden clogs and umbrella on the porch?" "Yes," Tenno replied. "Tell me," the master continued, "did you place your umbrella to the left of your shoes, or to the right?" Tenno did not know the answer, and realized that he had not yet attained full awareness. So he became Nan-in's apprentice and studied under him for ten more years. Source: Zen Stories Blog

Remain open to new ideas and information. Nobody knows it all and thinking that you do is dumb; it can slam the door on great discoveries and opportunities. If I had started in business thinking that I knew everything, I'd have been finished before I began. Don't make that mistake. Every business has surprises, hidden dangers beneath the surface, and simple problems that become complex. In my life, I want each day to be full of discoveries, and I frequently wonder what I'll be learning each day. It's a terrific way to start the day. When I learn, it makes me feel great, alive, and excited - it makes me want to learn more. As a result, I'm never bored, which I think is a big reason for my success. Never think of learning as a burden or a chore. It may require some discipline, but it can be a stimulating and exciting adventure. An extract from Donald Trump's blog.
