Dear fellow friends,
I am no motivator. Well….technically, that’s sort of what i do to make my living but i am no better than you guys. I can always share my opinions but i am not in the position to preach…
Today is the eve of a new year 2009. What have we achieved in 2008?. What are we going to achieve in 2009? Please take a break for a moment and think. Let 2009 be not just a year of resolution to be broken again.
You can change your and perhaps other life by reading & implementing just these 25 points:-
- Constantly review the context of your life – What do you REALLY want to achieve in your life?
- Always remember that life’s impermanence - What do you need /want to do during your “supposedly short” life?
- Make your smile cheaper – It doesn’t hurt to smile more, does it?
- Be more enthusiastic and always praise others – Acknowledge and be grateful for things that people do for you…
