Good Habits

Some may wonder how only few people become successful? Are they gifted with some talents? or are they extrodinary? This is not true. Every individual has an talent hidden within themself and it depends on the individual to identify it to become successful. I believe every individual is given atleast an oppurtunity in life when utilised in proper way paves way to success. Key to success is discipline along with good habits.

I came across the book 7 Good Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen Covey and would like to just point out those habits.

  1. Be Proactive
  2. Begin with an end in the mind (Suppose this is the toughest of all)
  3. Put first things first
  4. Think of Win-Win deal
  5. To understand and then be understood (Put the I at last)
  6. Creative Co-operation or Synergise
  7. Self Renewal or Sharpening the saw

The best way to implement this is not memorzing the above, as life is not an exam but is a lesson,.... so first to Learn it & then Practice it.

I do really believe that by practising the above every individual can become a successful person. These habits would also groom a person to be better and effective in the society. All the best for your successful future.

Imagination

Dreams...the best gift ever god has given to living beings on earth. This is one of the inspiration for every individual. One needs aspiration to come up in life and dreams pave a way for it. Imagination comes up to life in dreams. Imagination breaks away the myth and leads to big invention & dicoveries.

Imagination is the first step to any invention. Without imagination how could have Wright brothers made the first ever flight? or how could have Columbus discovered America? the list can go on never ending. Invention leads to better lifestyle among humans which ultimately leads to ones own development.

So friends lets all not put a barrier to imagination. Let the flow continue for betterment of mankind.

Love, Peace & Harmony

When rain drops touches me, my mind reels back to the pleasant young days when I used to play out in rain with a mind full of nothing but joy, joy and joy only. Down the lane thoughts have become more selfish and jealous leading to divided harmony among the fellow humans.

The situation has to be changed for the betterment of mankind and to make earth a better place to live in. We human beings have to have compassionate feelings for others to achieve this. This change will make the world a safe, peaceful and happy place for all to live.

The hinderance to the change is very ownself...It is like the proverb "Who ties the bell for the first time around the cat's neck". For this change to occur each and every one have to start. Few ways to do this are...
  • Thank one who does a favour
  • Have humanitarian concern for others
  • Love everyone (All Five fingers are not alike, but one needs all)

Let us all pray for everyone to God and not for one's own self...let this world be filled with people who love and care for others.
