Perspective ... and daily affirmation.

Confident ... yet humble ... are they who are truly successful.

Boredom

Even though I post a number of jokes on this website with the intention of raising some eyebrows, gettings some chuckles, and laughing myself, I do not hate any of the particular individuals contained therein. I hold my own bias opinions and am pretty sure that I am not perfect myself. :)

Caring, compromising, compassionate. I hope these traits shine through.

Parachuting ...

An airplane was about to crash; there were 5 passengers on board, but only 4
parachutes.

The first passenger Sarah Palin said, "I have my own reality show and I am the smartest woman in American history, so America ’s people don't want me to die.” She took the first pack and jumped out of the plane.

The second passenger, John McCain, said, “I’m a Senator, and a decorated war hero from an elite Navy unit from the United States of America ”. So he grabbed the second pack and jumped…

The third passenger, Scott Walker said, I am the Governor of the great state of Wisconsin and someday I will be President of the United States and I am the smartest governor of all the state governors, some even call me the Anointed One." So he grabbed the pack next to him and jumped out.

The fourth passenger, Billy Graham said to the fifth passenger, a 10-year-old schoolgirl, “I have lived a full life, and served my God the best I could. I will sacrifice my life and let you have the last parachute.”

The little girl said, “That’s okay Dr. Graham. There’s a parachute left for you. America’s smartest governor took my schoolbag.

What you have ... and what you need ...

"Fractures well cured make us more strong."

- Ralph Waldo Emerson

Happy Valentine's Day!

“No one is ever going to give you something that they're too afraid to even claim for themselves. People don't know themselves, so they don't like to see other people figure it out and live their lives in ways that they themselves cannot. So they try to box you in, and limit you, so they don't feel inadequate. But you don't need their approval- the only person who ever, ever limits you is yourself.”

20 Principles Of Success Not Taught In School

JEN GROOVER, FEBRUARY 7, 2012

1. The only thing in life you have control over is your perspective. No matter what happens, YOU control what the meaning is, and what to do with the meaning you give to the circumstance.
2. Have more fear of regret than failure.
3. Failure is only part of the journey to success. There is not one success story out there that hasn’t experienced failure. The reason you are hearing about it as a success story is because those people saw failure as a tool to get it right.
4. It’s not about what you want to do for a living, it’s about you who want to be. What is your purpose and legacy? I believe the age-old question, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” is wrong. We need to be asking, “Who do you want to be? What footprint do you want to leave in this world?” From there, you will have your answer as to what you should “do.”
5. Stay focused on your race within. When you are too busy looking behind and around you, people are passing you by.
6. True leadership comes from good energy. Worry more about what your energy is like than the firmness your handshake.
7. Life will give you the same challenges/problems over and over again until you learn your lesson.
8. Until you jump over your inner roadblocks, your outer ones will stay firmly in place. We spend so much time focused on all the exterior obstacles around us, letting them be our excuses. But the more clear and aware we are of our internal roadblocks, and dissolve them, the external roadblocks will begin to disappear, too.
9. The most successful people are the ones that work on themselves first.
10. Do not judge—be inspired. If you are too busy judging everyone and everything around you, you are not remaining open to find inspiration in everyone and everything around you.
11. You are not allowed to complain about something unless you are going to do something about it.
12. Surround yourself with people you want to be like.
13. Learn to become comfortable with being uncomfortable. The more fears you face, the more you will grow.
14. Always ask, “What if?” and, “Why Not?” Instead of thinking, “What if I fail?” ask, “What if I succeed?”
15. Creativity is your unlimited capital. Understand and harness its power.
16. “I only have good days.” If you start off everyday with this mindset, even when challenges emerge, your positive mindset will help you overcome them more readily.
17. Create your own footprint. You do not need to do what others have done before you.
18. Hit the “mental reset button.” When you are thinking negative thoughts, envision hitting the “delete” button in your mind and begin to rewrite a better story.
19. Abundance is everywhere. You must choose to see it and believe it in order to fully experience it.
20. There is a lesson in everything that happens to us—wisdom to be gained and gratitude to be given. Begin with gratitude and everything else will reveal itself.
