sung by the negative, helpless, powerless, hopeless and frustrated masses.
Don't join their mass choir but rather learn to sing your own new song. Sing a song of
inspiration, sing a song of hope, sing a song of love, sing a song of inspiration,
sing a song of success, sing a song of your future dreams and sing a song of
faith.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

is like an electric cable it will enable you to connect to god’s unlimited
power supply.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

admiring you without you being aware. There are people who are being inspired
by you without you knowing. There are people whose lives you have impacted
without you being aware. There are people who look up to you without you

and even following in your footsteps<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

support you, defend you, carry you, pray for you, think for you, tolerate your

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style","serif"; font-size: 14pt;">There
are certain people whose company is only enjoyable when you constantly talk
about the past. Your conversation with them becomes meaningful when you join
them in an expedition down memory lane. Nothing is ever mentioned about what
they are doing and where they are going. Renowned author and teacher, <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Dr Mike</b> <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Murdock</b> describes the effect of the past through these words: “Our
houses are full of pictures about our past, pictures that are hanging all over
our walls. Hence, we are always caught up in a tragic mindset of living in the
past, because we have not taken the effort to design the pictures about the
kind of future we desire.” Listen, there is nothing wrong when you once in a
while visit the museum of your past but it is catastrophic when the cemetery of
your past becomes your dwelling place. You cannot afford to live in the past
when the future is beckoning you. What you need to take into cognisance is that
your past is buried, your present is what matters and your future is wrapped in
the core of what you are currently doing.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style","serif"; font-size: 14pt;">An
old <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Cherokee Indian</i> was having a
conversation with his grandson. “My son, there is a battle between two wolves
inside all of us. One is evil and it is revealed through the following
character traits: anger, envy, jealousy, greed, arrogance, self-pity,
resentment, lies, false pride and ego. On the other hand, the good one
possesses the following attributes: joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility,
kindness, truth, compassion and faith.” The grandson asked which wolf wins. The
old Cherokee replied, “The one you feed the most.”<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style","serif"; font-size: 14pt;">The
greatest battle about life is not on the outside but on the inside; for, it is
the inner qualities that have a bearing on the outside appearance. We all
strive to alter and change the things we don’t like on the outside without
realizing that everything needs to be re-programmed on the inside. Our lives
are a reflection of what is happening on the inside. <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style","serif"; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">If
you are not happy with the picture of your life, make sure you adjust the
camera on the inside.</span>Sy Tshabalalahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08947668566582933398noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7996772858444240367.post-85040244775396297272015-01-08T22:40:00.001+02:002015-01-08T22:40:16.296+02:00Womb of development.
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style","serif"; font-size: 14pt;">Negative
situations offer many of us opportunities to attend free lessons in which we
acquire knowledge and strength. There is something worthwhile in every negative
circumstance, for what you are going through prepares you for where you are
going. You may view your negative circumstances as a prison without realizing
that you are actually in a womb which is a place of preparation and
development.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style","serif"; font-size: 14pt;">A
womb may not be an appealing place to live in, but it is a place where one
needs to be in order to acquire knowledge, develop courage and discover
purpose. Some of the world’s greatest people were once enrolled and tutored in life’s
university of adversity. What you are going through is not unique, because
somebody before you went through the same classes and they came out of those
negative situations with a degree in greatness. <o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style","serif"; font-size: 14pt; mso-bidi-font-family: BookmanOldStyle;">Focus
determines the direction and success of any person, group or organization. It
is the missing ingredient in many people’s lives and is therefore what
separates champions from losers, achievers from failures and the extra-ordinary
from the ordinary. As the common saying goes, <b><i>“</i></b><i><span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">good girls go to heaven while bad girls go
everywhere<b>”</b></span>. </i>This means that people who are focused know
where they are going, while the less focused go everywhere. <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style","serif"; font-size: 14pt; mso-bidi-font-family: BookmanOldStyle;">Predators,
like lions, understand the power of focus. Whenever a lion encounters a group
of zebras during its hunting expedition, it immediately focuses on one zebra.
And during the chase, the lion ignores the other zebras but continues pursuing
the one zebra it has chosen. And no matter how fast the zebra may run, the lion
continues with its pursuit. The zebra might even seem to be outrunning other
zebras but in spite of its efforts, the lion would continue the chase like a
missile until it catches its prey. A lion knows that whatever it focuses on, it
would eventually get. <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style","serif"; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: BookmanOldStyle; mso-bidi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">So,
like a lion, focus on one zebra (projects, tasks and goals) at a time. Pursue
one thing at a time. Even though your prey might try to outrun you, stick to
it. Let your hunger for success be the fuel that would power you into chasing
and finally catching the zebra you have been whole heartedly focusing on.</span>Sy Tshabalalahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08947668566582933398noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7996772858444240367.post-79792684497068862762015-01-08T22:27:00.002+02:002015-01-08T22:27:40.398+02:00Your unique signature
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style","serif"; font-size: 14pt;">Every
one of us possesses a unique DNA that separates us from other people. In other
words, everybody is born unique. Our DNA and finger prints serve as a reminder
that we are here on earth with unique talents to accomplish unique assignments.
For example, when you mention the name <b>Tiger Woods</b>, what comes into your
mind is golf; <b>Trevor Noah</b> makes you laugh at his comedy; <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Floyd Mayweather</b>-boxing, <b>Lira</b>
does music; <b>Chad Le cloux</b>-swimming; <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Brian</b> <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Habana</b>-Rugby, <strong>Messi</strong>-Soccer,
<b>Alexander Graham Bell</b>-inventions
and <b>Naomi Campbell</b>-modeling. <b><o:p></o:p></b></span><br />
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style","serif"; font-size: 14pt;">It
is quite clear that all of us have been endowed with different qualities for
different purposes. The world is like a soccer team with different types of
players assigned to different positions to perform different functions on the
field of play. But sadly, many go through life trying to express who they
really are without success. <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style","serif"; font-size: 14pt;">As
a result they end up imitating what others are doing in a bid to fit in. What
others are doing is preferred at the expense of what they were supposed to do.
Imitating others is embraced and uniqueness is ignored. <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Bookman Old Style","serif"; font-size: 14pt;">The
majority of people have shelved their unique individual traits in favour of
fitting in and being part of the crowd. The world is full of people who are
living as photo copies of other people. This destructive mindset has created a
void in the world; because many have chosen to blend in like chameleons rather
than standing out like giraffes. <o:p></o:p></span><br />

"The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but
shorter tempers, wider Freeways but narrower viewpoints. We spend more,
but have less, we buy more, but enjoy less. We have bigger houses and
smaller families, more conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees
but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more
problems, more medicine, but less wellness.
We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little,
drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read
too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom.
We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too
much, love too seldom, and hate too often.
We've learned how to make a living, but not a life. We've added years to
life not life to years. We've been all the way to the moon and back, but
have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbour. We conquered
outer space but not inner space. We've done larger things, but not better
things.
We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul. We've conquered the atom,
but not our prejudice. We write more, but learn less. We plan more, but
accomplish less. We've learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more
computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but
we communicate less and less.
These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small
character, steep profits and shallow relationships. These are the days of
two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes. These are
days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night
stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to
quiet, to kill. It is a time when there is much in the showroom window and
nothing in the stockroom. A time when technology can bring this letter to
you, and a time when you can choose either to share this insight, or to
just hit delete...
Remember; spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going
to be around forever.
Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because
that little person soon will grow up and leave your side.
Remember, to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the
only treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn't cost a cent.
Remember, to say, "I love you" to your partner and your loved ones, but
most of all mean it. A kiss and an embrace will mend hurt when it comes
from deep inside of you.
Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will
not be there again.
Give time to love, give time to speak! And give time to share the precious
thoughts in your mind.</pre>
