On Pain…

Pain (any pain–emotional, physical, mental) has a message.
The information it has about our life can be remarkably
specific, but it usually falls into one of two categories: We
would be more alive if we did more of this and Life would be
more lovely if we did less of that. Once we get the pain’s
message, and follow its advice, the pain goes away.”

THE SEVEN C’s OF SUCCESS

After having studied top achievers and peak performers over the past 25 years, I’ve concluded that these unique men and women, have in most cases, mastered what I call the Seven C’s of Success.

  1. Clarity – Eighty percent of success comes from being clear on who you are, what you believe in and what you want.
  2. Competence – You can’t climb to the next rung on the ladder until you are excellent at what you do now.
  3. Constraints – Eighty percent of all obstacles to success come from within. Find out what is constraining in you or your company and deal with it.
  4. Concentration – The ability to focus on one thing single-mindedly and see it through until it’s done takes more character than anything else.
  5. Creativity – Flood your life with ideas from many sources. Creativity needs to be exercised like a muscle, if you don’t use it you’ll lose it.
  6. Courage – Most in demand and least in supply, courage is the willingness to do the things you know are right
  7. Continuous learning – Read, at the very least, one book a week on business to keep you miles ahead of the competition. And just as you eat and bathe, organize your time so you spend 30 minutes a day exploring e-mail, sending messages, going through web sites, because like exercise, it’s the only way you can keep on top of technology. If you get away from it, you’ll lose your edge

On Sleep…

I love sleep…

It’s the only time I float in nothingness… ante-ning

No sadness to consume me..

No happiness to overwhelm me..

No fears to overcome..

No norms to conform to..

A place where time is but a concept..

Reality is bent.. and

Will is just waiting to happen..

A place where everything is twisted and I’m ok with that.. 🙂

Good night everyone…:)

Now is the Time

It is today that we fit ourselves for the greater usefulness of tomorrow. Today is the seed time, now are the hours of work, and tomorrow comes the harvest and the playtime.”
