Something to ponder….

Wednesday, January 30th, 2008

We are not here just to survive and live long,

we are here to live and know life in its multi-dimensions,

to know life in its richness and in all its variety.

And when a man lives multi-dimensionally,

explores all possibilities available,

never shrinks from a challenge,

goes, rushes to it, welcomes it,

rises to the occasion

then life becomes a flame, life blooms.

Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh – The Sacred Yes

BEFORE YOU GET, YOU HAVE TO GIVE

Tuesday, January 29th, 2008

When you give to others, you’ll find yourself blessed.
The more you sow, the more you reap.

It’s a universal law: You have to give before you get.
You must plant your seeds before you reap the harvest.
The law works to give you back more than you have sown.

He who obtains has little.
He who scatters has much.

Nature does not give to those who will not spend.
You only get to keep what you give away.

THE DAILY GURU

An interesting poem from Zig Ziglar – sales guru

Sunday, January 27th, 2008

I came across this poem this morning whilst researching my new book. Zig Ziglar recited it in one of his famous sales books. Whilst he used it as an example of a way to overcome sales objections regarding cost, it struck a chord with me about life in general. Sometimes we all wait too long to do the things we really need to do. Enjoy.

The Bride, white of hair, is stooped over her cane,
Her footsteps uncertainly guiding.
While down the opposite aisle,
With a wan, toothless smile,
The bridgegroom, in wheelchair, come riding.
Now who is this elderly couple thus wed?
Well you’ll find when you’ve closely explored it,
That here is the rare
Most conservative pair
Who waited till they could afford it.

IT’S NEVER OVER UNTIL IT’S OVER

Sunday, January 27th, 2008

The power to hold on in spite of everything, to endure,
this is the quality of a winner.
Your greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising
every time you fail.

It’s your constant and determined effort that will eventually
break down all resistance and sweep all the barriers before you.
Persistence means taking pains to overcome every obstacle,
to do all that’s necessary to reach your goal.

All great achievements require time.
Endurance is the crowning quality of success.
