There Is No Time Like "Present" And There Is No Present Like "Time"

A man is not old until regrets take a place of dream. Regrets looks back. Worry looks around. Vision looks up. Life can be understood backward, but it must be lived forward. The past should only be viewed with gratitude for the good things. So look backward with gratitude and look forward with confidence. Your past is the start of your fresh start.

A wise man says "I've shut the door on yesterday and thrown the key away; tomorrow holds no fear for me, since I've found today". Use the past as a launching pad. Dreams of the future are more valuable than the history of the past. Never build your future around your past. The past is over.

To succeed, you must be willing to shed part of your previous life. What lies behind us is insignificant compared to what lies ahead. Don't make the mistake of letting yesterday use up too much of today.

One of the deceptive beliefs of those who live an unproductive life is that "today" is not an important day. Everyday comes to us bearing gifts. Do what need to, when it ought to be done whether you like it or not. Scratch opportunity when it itches.

Life is made up of constant call to action. Time flies but it's up to us to be the pilot. Productive people get ahead during the time that others waste. Make quick use of the moment because you postpone your life, when you can't make up your mind.

There is no time like "present" and there is no present like "time". Those who take advantage of their advantage, obtain the advantage.

It's A Process....

Accomplishing your dreams is a process, not something that happens overnight. Often we get discouraged because we don't think we are making progress, and the next thing we know we have veered away from that goal. The key is to plan a course for how we want to achieve our goals. And each and every day, take a few steps closer towards our goal. You've got to get to the stage in life where going for it is more important than winning or losing. Having once decided to achieve a certain task, achieve it at all costs of tedium and distaste. The gain in self-confidence of having accomplished a tiresome labor is immense. "Somehow I can't believe that there are any heights that can't be scaled by a man who knows the secrets of making dreams come true. This special secret, it seems to me, can be summarized in four C s. They are curiosity, confidence, courage, and constancy, and the greatest of all is confidence. When you believe in a thing, believe in it all the way, ...

Forget It All

Everyone of us has had a dream of living a better life but the evil winds usually sweep and blow us to places so far from our desired lifestyle. Life is a resting place like they say but why do we have to suffer before we leave? Alot have died and so are we to, before we can leave it to our young brothers and sisters to carry on. Everyday bears more pain and today's generation is better than the one to come.  Our lifestyle has been filled with a huge amount of killings, prostitutions,teen pregnacies, abortion and all the dark secrets we keep in our hearts. We are not free because some of these things were not dreamt of in our early years. We now hurt ourselves and refraining from these addictions isn't in our minds. We hurt ourselves and all those who are related or contributed to the problems we are facing therefore making us fail to concentrate and forgetting that every second draws us closer to the day we leave the world. Life is bitter and the best we ca...

The Law of Garbage Truck

Recently I hopped in a Taxi and we took off for the Airport.  We were driving in the right lane when suddenly a black car jumped out of a parking space right  in front of us.   My taxi driver slammed on his brakes, skidded, and missed the other car by just inches!  The driver of the other car whipped his head around and started yelling at us. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy.  And I mean, he was really friendly.   So I asked, 'Why did you just do that?   This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!'  This is when my Taxi driver taught me what I now call, 'The Law of the Garbage Truck'  He explained that many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment.  As their Garbage piles up, they need a place to dump it and sometimes they'll dump it on you.  Don't take it personally.  ...
