Serve Others



... Nobody cares how much you know, until they know how much you care. Serving others is never entirely unselfish, because the giver always receives. Before looking a way to get, look for a way to give. Selfishness is the greatest curse of the 'human race'. 

Self-interest is a fire that consumes others and then itself. Almost all of our unhappiness is the result of selfishness. It is absolutely true that you can succeed best and quickest by helping others succeed. A self-centered life is totally empty, while an empty life allows room for God. 

A good way to forget your troubles is to help others out of theirs. Look for ways to help others by praising them because any definition of a successful life must include serving others.

Haste Makes Waste

There are no shortcut to any place worth going. The way to the top is neither swift or easy. Nothing worth while ever happens in a hurry, so be patient. Your success has less to do with speed and more to do with timing and direction. The key is doing the right thing at the right time.  You are always nearer than you think. The greater oppurtunity is where you are. Do not despise your own place and hour. The most important thing in our lives is what we are doing now. Know the real value of today. The regrets that most people experience in life comes from failing to act when having an oppurtunity. Be on the outlook for oppurtunities God is sending your way. Seize the momoments! The trouble with life in the fast lane is that you get to the other end too soon. Hastes makes waste; give time, time. Many people over estimate what they can do in a year and under estimate what they can do in a life time. There is simply more to life than increasing it's speed.

Refuse To Live a Targetless Life

The ability to set a goal is the master skill to success. Success is goals, all else is commentary. You cannot hit a target you cannot see, if you don't have one. One of the greatest mistakes and a waste of life is living without a clear purpose or goal. A life without clear goals is a life doomed to failure.  Any man who selects a goal in life which can be fully achieved has already defined his own limitation. So the clearer you are about your goal, the more rapidly you'll attract people and circumstances into your life to help make that goal a reality.  Most people have their eye on the wrong goal. Is more money, a higher position or more influence your goal? These are not goals but are the by-products of true goals. We should work to become, not acquire.  Measure wealth not by things you have, but by the things you have for which you would not take money. Happiness is not a reward - it's a consequence. Suffering is not a punishment - it's result. ...

Good Reading

One of the most pitiful aspects of society is the really large percentage of people who lead dismal, narrow darkened lives, crying out against what appears to be a cruel world which they believe have singled them out for a lifetime of trouble, misery and bad luck.  Any one who finds himself in such a prison of discontent should face the facts that he has built his prison with his own hands. And unless such a person takes responsibility to change things, his cell will continue to grow smaller, darker and more frightening!
