Don't

* Don’t undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different that each of us is special.

* Don’t set your goals by what other people deem important. Only you know what is best for you.

* Don’t take for granted the things closest to your heart. Cling to them as you would your life, for without them, life is meaningless.

* Don’t let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past or for the future. By living your life one day at a time, you live ALL the days of your life.

* Don’t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.

* Don’t be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect. It is this fragile thread that binds us each together.

* Don’t be afraid to encounter risks. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.

* Don’t shut love out of your life by saying it’s impossible to find. The quickest way to receive love is to give; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; and the best way to keep love is to give it wings.

* Don’t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you’ve been, but also where you are going.

* Don’t forget that a person’s greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated.

* Don’t be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless, a treasure you can always carry easily.

* Don’t use time or words carelessly. Neither can be retrieved. Life is not a race, but a journey to be savored each step of the way.

The Dirty Glass Window

If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear as it is – infinite. –"
William Blake 

The reality of life is shaped by our perceptions or our outlook on everything. What you believe, that you receive. But if we are able to change it (perception) to be positive, then everything in this life will seem more fun.Dr. Wayne Dyer says, "When you change the way you look at Things, the Things you look at change. - When you change the perspective of something, then what you see will change. "Here are some key points to destroy the negative perceptions and create the life you are supposed to enjoy.

The first is always trying to get used to focus on positive values, then we become more positive perception. Example when we focus on one's shortcomings, then we will continue to look for shortcomings. But If we focus on kebaikan someone, then we will continue to seek the goodness in him and more interested in people, even inspired by it.


Probably the same as those currently in the initial courtship, must each look at the couple seemed to have no visible deficiencies because the excess only. The days always romantic, because in each relationship it's just focus on the properties of positive and interesting. The more he focused on positive qualities, so he went to see a couple more amazing that more and more in love. Vice versa.


Another way to keep your perception remains is to always think positive and be optimistic. I strongly agree with Henry Ford once said, "If you think you can or if you think you can not either way you're always right. - If you think you can or if you think you can not, it was inevitable. "Thinking and being optimistic of course help your perceptions clearer, so it seems clear that new opportunities can help your situation or guide you to success and happiness.


Open mind and willing to learn about many things is one attempt to clear up the perception. Life is very full meaning of a variety of situations, causes, types, and so forth. No one can master all the science or dive into the minds of many people in the world. So you should not rush to create a conclusion, but rather look for the positive lessons to be learned in preparation to think and act more wisely.


Examples of recent print and electronic media in the country and even abroad are shocked obscene videos top artists. If it is true that they committed any immoral, does not mean all of their negative behavior. It would be wise if we make it as learning to not try to violate norms of propriety, religion and law, of any profession in which we live, because the harm is extraordinary not only harm themselves but also their families and communities.


If I notice, people whose lives are quite successful in this world always keep their perceptions remain positive. So that their attitudes and actions is also positive, for example persevere, humble, disciplined, careful or cautious in all things and so forth. In addition, they were able to perform responsibilities well and produce outstanding work.


Perception is like a 'window' to see things look good or bad. When you are able to make the perception is always positive, then you also have the power to see things more clearly, full of optimism, enthusiasm, compassion and love, and so forth, so that helps you always stay positive and not give in to any difficult circumstances to achieve success and happiness. Therefore, if you want to achieve a happy ending, then do not ever let 'window' you dirty.

What Make You Proud ?

"Pride is personal commitment. It is an attitude which separates excellence from mediocrity."

Having something to be proud of is the desire of all people. Not infrequently they exert every effort and resources in order to bring something to be proud of. Realization so many spectacular things in the world and boasts the owner.

For example South Africa certainly proud to have successfully organized the world cup party some time ago. With all the efforts the state government is trying to build a magnificent stadium. The government is also building a sophisticated and modern infrastructure to support the smooth celebration of the 2010 World Cup.
South Africa's efforts to pursue pride as the host country also has made the country increasingly known in the world. Moreover, the event also brings `soccernomic 'or a positive economic effect for the restaurants or the vendors around the stadium. The traders reportedly get a turnover many times.


On the other hand, most people in the country is worse off. The owners of farmland who evicted life miserable, because the government did not give the slightest compensation as compensation for their land. While the government spent a considerable cost to build the facilities and the process of organizing a party so lavish globe, mostly very poor people living there.


"Actually we were very embarrassed and depressed by the squalor we live," said one young man who lives in one of the slums in South Africa to one journalist who covered the event join the spectacular celebrations.
Not only South Africa, many countries or individuals who might pursue with all the pride and effort, but forget to calculate how big the benefits obtained from pride. Examples such as Malaysia to build iconic grandeur of the Twin Towers or Taiwan with the Taipei 101. Another example is building Burj Dubai Dubai is said to be the tallest and grandest building in the world.


How big is the benefit obtained by the government and people of the products that pride? Reportedly, the benefits are not significant. That is, what has been issued is not comparable with the positive benefits that can be achieved.


Pursuing pride can indeed cause harm if not carefully calculated, or just to show their style. But if the spirit of pride is based on the pursuit of a careful calculation will definitely be profitable. Thus, the pursuit of meaning and pride that has positive benefits, and some of them are as follows.


Pursuing pride makes us have the willpower and ego. It lit a fire of motivation in pursuing a goal or dream. This will also make us try to maintain dignity while struggling and until the target is reached, although not a lot of support and the situation is not favorable.


The pursuit of pride can also liberate us from the bondage of feeling insecure. We become aware of potentially larger and more powerful than a challenge. Then confidence will help us take measures to realize the things we want.


Having pride is to feel satisfied with yourself and your achievements. Satisfaction with yourself will motivate the creation and empowered to continue doing the best job possible. That way, you can gradually build an increasingly positive reputation and achieved great things are more proudly.
Pursuing pride means we have a goal. It makes our actions more purposeful. In the end the pursuit of pride that will guide us to create a series of successes.


We can say that boast achieved something if others also respect and appreciation. Others will give these 2 things (respect and appreciation), if we achieve it with honest pride. Because pride is the respect of others on the potential and integrity that we have.


Is the corrupt who own property should be proud that hundreds of billions? Of course not, because of what they accomplished is not an honest way. That is why we must also remain vigilant in pursuit of pride to keep promoting the integrity or honesty.


Looking at the positive side of pride, there's nothing wrong if we pursue pride. Moreover, each of us also have tremendous potential to create something you are proud. Do not be afraid to pursue pride, because pride itself also reflects the passion of living passionately.
