The ABC OF Life.....

 The ABC OF Life.....

                                               Success in Human life can be judged by any number of standards, but it should never be measured by ribbons, trophies, or other awards. For example if a student has selected a topic, investigated it according to a planned design, and reported the results of that investigation, then that student has succeeded. Winning  “First place” or being “grand Champion” is certainly praiseworthy, but the ultimate goal of taking part in any fair should be to discover and learn new things about the world (or universe) in which we live.

                                                It reminds me of a story,  “ There was a man who made a living selling balloons at a fair, he had all colors of balloons, including red, yellow, blue and green. Wherever business was slow, he would release helium filled balloons into the air and when the children saw it go up, they all wanted to buy one. They would come up to him, buy a balloon and his sales would go up again. He continued this process all-day. One day, he felt someone tugging at his jacket. He turned around and saw a little boy who asked, “If you release a black balloon, would that also fly?” Moved by the boy’s concern, the man replied with empathy,” Son, it is what is inside that makes it go up.”

                                                       The same things apply to our lives. That is the first letter we learn in our life “A” It is what is inside that counts. The thing inside of us that makes us goes up goes up our Attitude. The Calgary Tower stands at 190.8 meters. The total weight of the tower is 10,884 tons, of which 6,349 tons is below ground (approximately 60%). This shows that some of the greatest buildings have the strongest foundations. Just like a great building stands on a strong foundation, so does Success. And the foundation of success is Attitude. Success is not an accident. It is the result of our attitude and our attitude is a choice. Hence success is a matter of choice and not chance.

B-Belief : Always Belief in Yourself. Successful people are not looking for miracles or easy tasks. They seek courage and strength to overcome obstacles. They look at what is left rather than what is lost. Wishes don’t come true; beliefs and expectations supported by conviction do. Prayers are only answered when they are supported with courageous action. It is courage and character that is the deadly combination for success. This is the difference between the ordinary and the extraordinary. 

Confidence:  Have confidence in yourself; be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind. Talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person you meet. Meet all your friends feel there is something in the best. Be enthusiastic about the success of others as about your own. Forget the mistake of the past and press on the greater achievements of the future. Give everyone a smile. Spend so much time improving yourself that you have no time left to criticize others. Be too big for worry and too noble for anger.
