How to open the door to your future
« on: July 12, 2009, 11:24:18 AM »
"The only constant in life is change." Change is constant. Your physical body changes on a minute by minute, day by day, month by month, year by year basis. You know that you CAN exert considerable control over that, by, smoking or not smoking, exercising or not exercising, the foods you eat, and so on. Some people choose to do cetain things deliberatley, to control their weight, get and stay fit, and healthy. others do not. But everybody changes physically.

Change happens in every other aspect of life too, for everybody. Marriage. Divorce. Kids. Get a job. Lose a job. Buy a home. Move. Get older. learn something new. Education. The list of changes is endless. You just cannot escape constant change. But you can make it work for you or let it work against you.

If we continue to DO the things we have always done, we can only expect to get what we have always got. whatever change happens, it will work against us. Opportunities will pass us by. Only by first changing our own actions and behaviour can we create other desirable changes in our life. (to be continued)

Five essential foundations of success in life

THE FIVE ESSENTIAL FOUNDATIONS OF SUCCESS IN LIFE.

If you don’t know where you want to go, any road will take you there.---
The Cheshire Cat in ‘Alice In Wonderland.’

Foundation#1 is: Positive Directions

“Positive directions” means choosing directions that are most likely to lead us to the kind of life and lifestyle we want.

Foundation#2 is: Education

There is a direct link between education and income, education and opportunity. We cannot “beat this system.”

“If a man empties his wallet into his head, no one can take it from him.”
---Benjamin Franklin.

Foundation#3is: Association

It means that we either hold ourselves back or improve ourselves based on the people(support group) we spend time with the most, because their values, ideas and directions are always influencing our own.

Foundation#4is: Beginning

Any job is better than no job.
Employment is better than unemployment.
To begin is to get into the game.
There is a certain process to success, an order of steps we have to go through.

Foundation#5 is: Lifelong Learning

Many people have learned how to be taught, but have not learned to enjoy learning on their own.

In contrast, successful people are usually involved in “lifelong learning.”
