Tips for this Year - 2009


Few Tips for this year to live a peaceful life.

Never put off till Tomorrow
What you can do Today.

Never Trouble Another for
What you can do Youself.

Never spend your money
Before you have it.

Never Buy what you do not want
Because it is cheap.

We seldom repent having
Eaten too litte.

Nothing is troublesome
that we do willingly.

Take things always by the
Smooth handle.

How to Make a New Year's Resolution


Tradition dictates that every 365 days, you should try to kick bad habits and start your life anew. So sit down with a cup of coffee, a paper and a pen, and reflect: What kinds of New Years Resolutions will you make for yourself this January 1st?

Instructions:

Step 1
Be realistic by setting achievable goals.

Step 2
Describe your resolutions in specific terms. Instead of "I don't want to be lazy," opt for "I want to exercise regularly" or "I will cut down on my television watching."

Step 3
Break down large goals into smaller ones. For instance, commit to losing weight by resolving to join a gym and improve your eating habits.

Step 4
Find alternatives to a behavior that you want to change, and make this part of your resolution plan. So you want to quit smoking but you smoked to relax yourself? What other forms of relaxation are available to you?

Step 5
Above all, aim for things that are truly important to you, not what you think you ought to do or what others expect of you.

You are special - Don't ever forget it !

A well-know speaker started off his seminar by holding up a Rs1000 note. In the room of 200, he asked, "Who would like this money?"
Hands started going up. He said, "I am going to give this Rs1000 to one of you but first, let me do this. " He proceeded to crumple the note. He then asked, " Who still wants it ?"Still the hands were up in the air. "Well", he replied, "What if I do this ?" And he dropped it on the ground and started to grind it into the floor with his shoe. He picked it up, now all crumpled and dirty." Now who still wants it ?" Still the hands went into the air.
My friends, you have all learned a very valuable lesson. No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not decrease in value. It was still worth Rs1000.
Many times in our lives, we are dropped , crumpled, and ground into the dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that come our way.We feel as though we are worthless. But no matter what has happened or what will happen, you will never lose your value.
You are special - Don't ever forget it !
