Live Passionately

"Do not wait; the time will never be 'just right.' Start where you stand, and work with whatever tools you may have at your command, and better tools will be found as you go along."
Napoleon Hill
1883-1970,

"Everyone needs someone to stand by them"? It is a montage that was done with help of people from all over the world.

DREAM...DESIGN...BUILD...CREATE

"You'll seldom experience regret for anything that you've done. It is what you haven't done that will torment you. The message, therefore, is clear. Do it! Develop an appreciation for the present moment. Seize every second of your life and savor it. Value your present moments. Using them up in any self-defeating ways means you've lost them forever."
Wayne Dyer
Author and Speaker

Nobody's journey is seamless or smooth, we all stumble, and we all have setbacks. If things go wrong, you hit a dead end as you will...it's just life's way of saying time to change course. Every failure, every crisis, every difficult time...ASK YOURSELF...

What is this here to teach me?

And as soon as you get the lesson you get to move on
...if you don't get the lesson it shows up again wearing a different disguise and give you more work, until you get it.

What I found is that difficulties come when you don't pay attention to life whisper
...then comes a scream..."Whatever you resists...persists."

If you ask the life questions, NOT...why is this happening to me? BUT...What is this here to teach me?

Live for the present moment whatever happens to you in the past...the past has no power. Life is now!

Oprah said;

"One thing I know for sure,In order to be truly happy - you must live along with and you have stand for something larger than yourself, because life is a reciprocated exchange...to move forward yo have give back."

Be open to lessons...walk through life eager and be open to self improvement that which is best to help you evolve.

"Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around."Leo Buscaglia

Bringing In the Light

“…With forgiveness, your victim identity dissolves,
and your true power emerges - the power of presence.
Instead of blaming the darkness you bring in the light.“
~ Ekhart Tolle, from A New Earth

Insightful wisdom by Tina Su

Fluidity of Life - Life is always fluid. The unexpected and even unimaginable can and does happen at anytime. And all things, scenarios, events can shift their course at any time: from bad to good, from good to bad. There is no good or bad, there just is. Surrendering to whatever that happens, without placing unnecessary importance or investing excessive emotions holds the key to lasting happiness. At any moment, we have the choice to choose bliss, to see the light. Surrender to rigid thinking and choose to live a conflict free life.

Our Need to Blame - Blaming leads to nowhere, except temporary fulfillment for the ego. Yet, the ego does not stay fulfilled and will seek out more and more pain. Any kind of blaming thoughts, words, or accusations are ego-filling, unproductive and lead to our own suffering, even if they are “reasonably” justified.

Unconscious Actions - When we are in an unconscious state of mind (high TPS - thoughts per second), the survival instinct in our brain tells us to take unconscious actions with great urgency and conviction. These actions when taken, always lead to more unconsciousness and are rarely helpful.

The Mind’s Reality - Our mind always makes unknown situations worse than they actually are. Its goal is to dwell on pain and problems. Often when we find out the truth, we feel instantly relieved that the “reality” of events wasn’t as bad as what we had imagined.

Building Intensity - All my frustration and inner suffering really has a purpose and benefit: they build the intensity in me that further encourages me to break free from the inner conflicts, and to rise out a more conscious being established in Joy.

The Pain Body - When a person is established and reacts out of their pain body, they are no longer themselves, and we should not measure or judge their character based on when they are in this state. Recognize when they are in their pain body and detach from any painful feelings it may trigger in you. The pain body feeds on pain - its own pain and on other people’s pain. Whenever hurtful words are uttered and actions are taken, identify where they are coming from; likely, they will be coming from the pain body.

Seek to Understand, Drop Self Pity - When others behave in ways that you are not happy with, drop the self-pity story, bring in compassion, and try to understand why they are behaving in certain ways toward you. There is always a reason. Often times, we’re so wrapped up in defending ourselves and making our own side be understood that we fail to truly see things from other people’s perspective, and we miss the chance to heal others and ourselves.

Everything is Auspicious - No matter how bad things seem there is always a reason that contributes positively towards us. There always exists an incredible gift in any “bad” situation, trust that you are always being taken care of by the protective arms of Existence.

Michael Franti Say Hey is the best...

I am love love LOVING this song! Get ready to wiggle a little!

DO IT WHILE YOU CAN!!

One day a woman's husband died, and on that clear, cold morning, in the warmth of their bedroom, the wife was struck with the pain of learning that sometimes there isn't "anymore".

No more hugs, no more special moments to celebrate together, no more phone calls just to chat, no more "just one minute."

Sometimes, what we care about the most gets all
used up and goes away, never to return before we can say good-bye, say "I love you."
So while we have it, it's best we love it, care for it, fix it when
it's broken and heal it when it's sick.

This is true for marriage .....
And old cars
And children with bad report cards, and dogs with bad hips, and
aging parents and grandparents.

We keep them because they are worth it, because
we are worth it.
Some things we keep -- like a best friend who moved away or a sister-in-law after divorce. There are just some things that make us happy, no matter what.
Life is important, like people we know who are special.. And so, we keep them close!

Suppose one morning you never wake up, do all your friends know you love them?

I was thinking...I could die today, tomorrow or next week, and I wondered if I had any wounds needing to be healed, friendships that needed rekindling or three words needing to be said.

Let every one of your friends know you love them. Even if you think they don't love you back, you would be amazed at what those three little words and a smile can do.

Live today to the fullest because tomorrow is not promised.

THREE FEET FROM GOLD

"Self-disciplined begins with the mastery of your thoughts. If you don't control what you think, you can't control what you do."
Napoleon Hill
1883-1970, Author of Think and Grow Rich

It's time to Think and Grow Rich. Again!

As many of you know, out of the great depression came an Inspirational classic called:
Think and Grow Rich that taught our nation one simple message:

What ever the mind can conceive and believe it can achieve!

From this attitude, legendary empires were created.
Fast forward to today's economic challenges, where the text reemerges with a fresh new team reminding us.

Our greatest success will come just one step away from our greatest failure.
Napoleon Hill

With honor, I would like to introduce a project that Bob Proctor is personally involved with:

Think and Grow Rich: Three Feet From Gold!

Turning Obstacles into Opportunities.
A Book and Film By,
Sharon Lechter (co-author, Rich Dad Series, and Filmmaker Greg S.Reid)
www.threefeetaway.com/event

100 years from when a young writer was gifted the task of a lifetime, the Napoleon Hill Foundation set out to recreate history by commissioning a new set of faces that sat down with modern day leaders asking them just one question:

"How did you handle the challenges that came your way?"

From the answers Three Feet from Gold was created - and I want to share it with you!

Question:
Have you ever felt like giving up? Throwing in the towel? Are things tough right now and are wondering if you are making the right decisions?

You are NOT alone!

With the help of the Napoleon Hill Foundation, and this project ~ you will learn that
This too shall pass and you may truly be three feet away from your mine of gold.

Doing Our Best.

We put ourselves under great pressure. We want to try and keep everyone happy. But, inevitably it is impossible to keep everyone happy and always succeed in doing well. We have to judge ourselves on our motives and intentions – not the external outcome or what other people think. If we work with the right attitude, doing the best in difficult circumstances – what else can we do? Don’t allow the unreasonable expectations of others to disturb your inner peace. If we can work with this sense of detachment then we will avoid many feelings of guilty, worry and anxiety. It is these forces that disturb own inner peace.

Inner peace can never be dependent upon outer success and outer praise. It is the nature of the world to give success / failure, praise / blame in equal measure. We have to transcend this at be at peace with ourselves whatever happens.
- Sri Chinmoy
