Thoughts and Whispers

rue wealth is the ability to fully experience life. - Henry David Thoreau Y eay. We've been arrived in this post. I'd love to every-inspirational words and thoughts. It belongs to Marc and Angel (and I REALLY LOVE THEM). So, please enjoy this post :) You are alive. You are able to see the sunrise and the sunset. You are able to  hear birds sing and waves crash . You can walk outside and feel the breeze through your hair and the sun’s warmth on your skin. You have tasted the sweetness of chocolate cake. You didn’t go to sleep hungry last night. You awoke this morning with a roof over your head. You had a choice of what clothes to wear. You haven’t feared for your life today. You have  overcome some considerable obstacles , and you have learned  and survived. You often worry about what you’re going to do with your life – your career, your family, the next step, etc. – which means you have ambition, passion, drive, and the freedom to make your ...

Remember today, for it is the beginning. Today marks the start of a brave new future. Start spending time with the right people.  – These are the people you enjoy, who love and appreciate you, and who encourage you to improve in healthy and exciting ways.  They are the ones who make you feel more alive, and not only embrace who you are now, but also embrace and embody who you want to be, unconditionally. Start facing your problems head on.  – It isn’t your problems that define you, but how you react to them and recover from them.  Problems will not disappear unless you take action.  Do what you can, when you can, and acknowledge what you’ve done.  It’s all about taking baby steps in the right direction, inch by inch.  These inches count, they add up to yards and miles in the long run. Start being honest with yourself about everything.  – Be honest about what’s right, as well as what needs to be changed.  Be honest about what you w...

These questions have no right or wrong answers. Because sometimes asking the right questions is the answer. How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you are? Which is worse, failing or never trying? If life is so short, why do we do so many things we don’t like and like so many things we don’t do? When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done? What is the one thing you’d most like to change about the world? If happiness was the national currency, what kind of work would make you rich? Are you doing what you believe in, or are you settling for what you are doing? If the average human life span was 40 years, how would you live your life differently? To what degree have you actually controlled the course your life has taken? Are you more worried about doing things right, or doing the right things? You’re having lunch with three people you respect and admire.  They all start criticizing a close friend of yours, not knowing she is your ...

Even in times of financial uncertainty, it’s always important to keep things in perspective. Wealth is the ability to fully experience life. - Henry David Thoreau You didn’t go to sleep hungry last night. You didn’t go to sleep outside. You had a choice of what clothes to wear this morning. You hardly broke a sweat today. You didn’t spend a minute in fear. You have access to clean drinking water. You have access to medical care. You have access to the Internet. You can read. You have the right to vote. Some might say you are rich, so remember to be grateful for all the things you do have. Best Regards, xox

“The best way out is always through.” ―Robert Frost I t’s still there today, and it continues to remind me that there is always, always, always something to be thankful for.  And that no matter how good or bad I have it, I must wake up each day thankful for my life, because someone somewhere else is desperately fighting for theirs. T ruth be told, happiness is not the absence of problems, but the ability to deal with them.  Imagine all the wondrous things your mind might embrace if it weren’t wrapped so tightly around your struggles.  Always look at what you have, instead of what you have lost.  Because it’s not what the world takes away from you that counts; it’s what you do with what you have left. H ere are a few reminders to help motivate you when you need it most: 1.  Pain is part of growing. Sometimes life closes doors because it’s time to move forward.  And that’s a good thing because we often won’t move unless circumstances force us to....

Some of the smartest people I know continuously struggle to get ahead because they forget to address a few simple truths that collectively govern our potential to make progress. Y es. In this occasion, I'd like to post 10 Simple Truths Smart People Forget.  Well, I know that I am not even too smart to explain this. But, I just can add 'credit' in this post :p Yup. This post is inspirated by Marc and Angel on their book(?). Too many lesson there. But I'll try share it to anyone that interested with them. Ah, I almost forget that I should finish this 'original' post. So, here we go . #1 – Education and intelligence accomplish nothing without action. It doesn’t matter if you have a genius IQ and a PhD in Quantum Physics, you can’t change anything or make any sort of real-world progress without taking action.  There’s a huge difference between knowing how to do something and actually doing it.  Knowledge and intelligence are both useless without action.  It...

Okay. This time, I'd like to post 4 Powerful Truths You Should Know. Nah, in this post, I'd like to inform you that this post belongs to Marc and Angel.
