Better And Stronger

 Better And Stronger

“Challenge yourself every day to do better and better”

Practice! Practice! Practice!

When a person is learning the violin, they have to practice for hours, every single day, for ‘a very long time’ to be good enough to play in an orchestra. The “Challenge” then is to learn the thousands of pieces of music the orchestra will be playing. The violinist would be playing ‘at their best’.

The doctor who has come across a difficult ‘symptom’ and the ‘challenge’ is for the doctor to keep the patient alive. The doctor does this and, to the now much healthier patient, he or she is the best doctor in the world.

You and I may not be a violinist or a doctor, but in “our worlds”, we have skills that are ‘challenged’ every day, and which become Better and Stronger.

As Unique As A Fingerprint

 As Unique As A Fingerprint

“Never measure your progress using someone else’s ruler”

Every one of us is Different and Unique.

Every one of us has a Unique fingerprint. 

Every one of us has a Special Skill or Talent.

It just takes time to find it.

Some of us have never had the opportunity to “really see what we can do individually”.

And this can be difficult when we grow up in a large family or even as an only child. At school, we are encouraged to ‘compete’ with our fellow pupils, but this is only to push ourselves to see what we can personally do.

We need to build up our own Confidence and Believe in what we can do individually.

And we need to Encourage our children to show who they are as individuals.

The only ruler we should be measuring ourselves against — is our own.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Put Us In Our Place

 Put Us In Our Place

“You may be tired and exhausted, but at least you woke up today. Someone else didn’t”

This is a good reminder for all of us to remember every day.

Life Itself is Extremely Precious.

And in our busy lives, we don’t always remember this.

When we’re moving on in everyday life, we can sometimes ‘complain’ because things are just not going our way, and this is understandable, especially when we work so hard.

But — this quote does put us in our place.

Whilst we’re complaining because “-----”, someone is in hospital, dying of cancer (or some other illness).

We wake up the next day, ready to complain about something else, whilst that person died in the night, never to see their loved ones again, in this world.

It comes down to Appreciating Life.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Take That Chance

 Take That Chance

“This is not just another day, this is yet another chance to make your dreams come true”

Every day we are Alive, we can make our dreams come true.

Every day is another chance, another opportunity, to “See” our Dream Life.

How do you Want to Live?

What do You want to do with Your Life?

Sit down, think about it, and make that list. Then every day, do something from that list, tick it off and start on the next point on your list tomorrow. You’ll be surprised at how quickly that ‘Dream Life’ will arrive.

Trust in Yourself and Believe in You!

This is what it comes down to, to have Confidence in Our own Abilities.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Do It --- For You

 Do It — For You!

“Don’t wait for the perfect moment, take this moment and make it perfect”

As long as we are Alive, every moment is Perfect, we just may not always see that.

Sometimes, we have to ‘make the perfect moment’.

Have you ever been to a family gathering, Christmas maybe, and it’s not quite going with a swing? What do you do? “Let’s get the party started!” And you “make that Christmas perfect” for your loved ones.

Have you ever thought about doing this with your own personal life?

To a certain extent, it is about taking and having Control of your Life.

Every day, when you wake up, think about how you can make that day perfect or better — for you personally.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Because It Is There

Because It Is There

“Find a reason to smile everyday”

And we do have a reason to Smile everyday — we live on Earth.

This planet is called “The Jewel In Space” because, compared to the other planets, the Earth is colourful, full of life, and It Shines amongst the blackness of space.

Space is like the jewellery box, and each planet is a precious gem. Earth stands out on the jewellery box because of Its sheer beauty.

Are you smiling yet?

You and I are Unique and Special in our own way. We both Shine every day we are Alive, showing our Skills and Talents that only we have.

Are you smiling yet?

When you cuddle a new-born baby and look into his or her eyes, how do you feel?

Now you are smiling!

Find something in your Life that makes you Smile. Think about it because it is there.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

 

Do That Little Something

 Do That Little Something

“Every day is an opportunity to realize your dreams”

As long as we are alive, our dreams can come true.

Every single day, we can do a little something towards our ‘dream life’, even if that means just reading about it.

This is a useful way of ‘using’ our mind’s eye or imagination.

Maybe we’ve never had the opportunity, in which case, can we make that opportunity ourselves?

Very often we can study at home, and it doesn’t matter what our age is, and get that qualification that we may need to realize our dream.

We may have responsibilities towards our family, however, we can usually still work around these in order to have our ‘dream life’.

The real question is, how much do I really want my “dream”?

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
