Dear you who is reading this now, make it your habitual way of life to shatter beliefs!

Do it not part-time, but do it full time, 24/7!

I mean beliefs that say that things cannot be achieved, particularly by you or maybe others can do it but never a poor soul like you, or beliefs that what you are passionate to achieve can never ever come to a fruition!!

Always be good to the challenge they pose you. The world will be a friend only to those who are ready to “Prove that others are wrong”.

Be one of them.

Never agree with those pessimists. They have no agendas, and will never have. But you do, and don’t stop doing what has to be done just because of others!!!

Like a mighty waves of gigantic water sweep everything that gets in your way, yes every…single…thing.

How long will it take to prove them wrong? That doesn’t matter but what is even more important is whether you are moving forward and doing those activities that take you to success—whether they are easy or tough, painful or pleasurable!!

JUST DO THEM!!

Do the work and your prizes MUST follow.

Why become your own enemy by abandoning what you believed about your goals and ambitions?

Why!!?

Yes, you become your own foe by NOT following on your dreams, by allowing those everything-is-impossible people to persuade you and make you too like them!

People have always suffered not much because they followed their dreams and sacrificed many things, but because they failed to accept control over their life and let those around them to change their mind that they were not worth their ideals and better abandon them.

Live your live by your own terms and keep raising the bar, and never stop to become a better and better person, be it in your job or anywhere in your life.

Now, how do you become better?

Only by exploring new avenues and making small positive changes gradually.

How could one expect you to become the change that you want if you believe in the limitations that those people—who themselves don’t know where they are going or what they doing, or even who they are—impose on you?

Yes dear reader, take the key today, and finally, open the door—your door to a new life that has in it the words “Yes it is possible for me” written all over it!

In truth, anything is possible for you.

But are you willing to CONSTANTLY challenge those “negative-beliefs” merchants?

I say “constantly” because these “poison” belief bearers come in different size, forms, degree of impact, etc. Subtle attacks are the most formidable attacks. Day by day, they can completely change a person for worse, but not a champion, who knows what’s in the dark, and what could happen if he/she allows the outside force to convince him/her otherwise.

On any given day, watch for things like this, and as soon as you come across someone who thinks that he/she can collapse your hard-earned attitude and self-belief, just remind yourself that you were born to “win” in this life and surmount ANY NUMBER of obstacles which could be of any degree of difficulty to overcome. You do truly have it in you. You can if you think you can.

Then just start doing the very thing that that person said you cannot do.

In every field of endeavor, it is only those small pack called “I-can-demonstrate-that-this-could-be-done” that has given us this world that we live in with all the comforts and high-tech gadgets, and what not!

They stepped out and announced that they were going to do that which “hadn’t been done”. That’s why it has been done!!

The main enemy of this “stepping out”, like those brave people, is the “It can’t be done” or “It never works” or “Nobody has ever done it, and this time too it’s going to fizzle out” or “Man, you don’t have the fire power to make it happen” or “You can’t do it, it is too big a goal for you” or “You can never imagine finishing it  within that time period, since I know nobody who did it within that time frame”.

There will always be something that tries to stop you; but indelibly burn it in your mind that when you lose here because of it, you will be kept slave until you die, one day to realize that you could have fought it.

Why not fight it now?

When you fight the “common” ideas and beliefs of the mediocre people now, you will once and for all leave that place and join the “HIGHEST” angels! And your life would start from there, from that higher region, where you will be able to have anything you really wish for—yes anything!!

Start your fight today.

Is there any rule that if something hasn’t been achieved before, even after enormous efforts for it, cannot ever be reached or achieved?

NO!! That’s not how this dear world of ours has been acting! One example—Mahatma Gandhi—he did what hadn’t been seen or done or experienced before!!

You can be the first person to change that. Often say to yourself, “Why not be the first one to do it?” When this question enters your mind at a deep level, then things that regularly exit from you would stagger others!!

Achievements are the children of “Limiting-beliefs” breakers!

Be one!

Wish you all the riches to come with God’s blessings

Ice melts when you introduce heat

My hurdle melts when I don’t retreat!

That’s the secret of people who are upbeat

Oh victory, where have you been?

Struggling hard and hard, I saw you grin

Thinking, with malice, that’s a great sin

Now I realize that through struggling I win!!

Hardship is victory’s beloved kin

Oh victory, a noble teacher you have been!!!

Marveled by an ant’s wonderful attitude

I thanked life for my inner gifts with gratitude

I will, ever battle challenges, with fortitude

And then guaranteed, success of great magnitude!!

The world is filled with many people of no-activity

And madly obsessed with “perfectivity”

Blind to all this I will fill myself with positivity

And I am no more in the mental captivity!!

A defeat may knock me down

But it cannot keep me down!

I don’t mind even if I appear as a clown

For the sake of my touchdown

For if I persist I must one day have the crown

About my goals I am obsessive

And my action toward them is aggressive

If so, life’s darkness can never seem oppressive

Each day passes making me more impressive

And my success path will always be progressive

I work all day and every day with focus and joy

Like a cheerful child playing intensely with a toy

My ascension, therefore, nothing can destroy!

With more wind, kites go higher

I too would when I rekindle my inner fire

I know that a new life is near

And so I’ll keep rolling like an inflated tyre

And here I go trampling my destructive fear

And God has finally said to me “I am with you my dear!!”

Wish you all the riches to come with God’s blessings

I STARTED CLIMBING A MOUNTAIN

GOING AND GOING AND GOING UNENDINGLY—STEEPER AND STEEPER AND STEEPER!!

“CAN I PULL THIS OFF?” I DREW A LARGE QUESTION MARK IN FRONT OF ME

HITTING THE BOTTOM QUICKLY–PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY

AND I KNEW NO ANSWERS TO PREVAIL AGAINST THIS SUDDEN BIG STEEP FOE!

TODAY, THE MIDWAY IN MY SOLO, FORMERLY-BRAVE JOURNEY

LYING STILL LIKE A MUMMY AND DRAINED OF ALL HOPES AND DREAMS

I WISHED I HAD BEEN DEAD—THE GREAT ESCAPE FROM THIS DEADLOCK

UNTIL…UNTIL I SAW A COYOTE LOOSENING ITS LEGENDARY THROAT HOLD

ON A SMALL SHEEP OR RIGHTLY… WAS MADE TO DO SO!!

A BOLD, STEADFAST, DETERMINED SMALL MOUNTAIN SHEEP

FIGHTING THE VERY FATE IT’S DOOMED TO BY THE VERY ECOSYSTEM!!!

WHAT A VALIANT EFFORT! WHAT AN INTENSITY IN SUBDUING THE ENEMY!!

ALL OF THIS, GOD HEARD AND SENT THE SHEEP’S HERD—RESCUED AND WON!

A SUDDEN SHOCK SWALLOWED UP MY BODY AND MIND

AND AN EMBARRASSMENT TOO…BUT   ONLY FLEETING ONES

SOON I WAS AGAIN SWALLOWED UP, FOR THE FIRST TIME

WITH A FRESH AIR OF “I-TOO-CAN-DO-IT”

“THE SPECTACULAR VIEW THAT IS THE GIFT OF

REACHING THE TOP, HERE OR ANYWHERE IN LIFE,

TAKES ACTION IN SPITE OF FEAR”, I SAID

TO MYSELF IN A LOW, DETERMINED WHISPER!!

NOT ANOTHER MINUTE WASTED

BEFORE I WAS ON MY FEET FOR THAT STEEP JOURNEY.

THIS TIME KNOWING THAT THIS MOUNTAIN IS NOTHING

BEFORE “THE MOUNTAIN” THAT GOD IMPLANTED IN ME!!!

God did not discard you and just tossed you away when He created you! Not for a fraction of a second think that you are a waste!!

Up until this moment you may have thought about yourself as someone who has not amounted to anything, or someone who cannot do things that others can do, or have things that others can have!!

You may have deeply believed that others are worth more than you are to possess that car, that house, that nice job or the happy and peaceful life or that Greek-god body, or anything that you emotionally long to have but soon dismissed these thoughts– just because you have been seeing yourself as useless and good for nothing.

Why? And…WHY???

As Richard Kirsten Daiensa, an artist, painter, sculptor, Zen Buddhist priest and one who has many faces, observed, “Every seed in its sleep awaits the Light.”

How true are those words.

Now, this moment you are a seed, that little, poor seed that others have trashed, waiting for your Light. And know what? Your moment of witnessing the Light is now, and shifting the gears from one of a doubt to one of a belief.

People lose the game of life primarily because they have no value for themselves. They put high price tags on others, but they can never bring themselves to do the same with themselves.

Still others allow people to set value for them. They believe—blindly—what others say they are worth.When others say that they are not good at something or they don’t deserve to be a roaring success, or they don’t stand a chance against life’s complicated roadways, they simply buy into it.

This is a sadder scene than the POW in the hands of Nazi’s!!!

In the wise words of Elbert Hubbard, “Don’t take life too seriously. You’ll never get out of it alive.”

This is possibly your one and only life. Anyway, like Mr. Hubbard says, you are never going to come out alive—one day you have to leave the world. And that’s not 1000 years from now or even probably 100 years from now.

So, why not make your days count?

Why don’t you start believing in your abilities and in your potential to realize magnificent goals?

Why not live a fearless and honest life?

And most importantly, why not make that long-due change in your life today?

Why not get rid of your habitual way of putting yourself down and start seeing yourself as how you see the great people around you?

Time is running…decide now…it’s you and your courage that‘s going to make all the difference.

Awake now, arise now, and ascend now!!!

Wish you all the riches to come with God’s blessings

The sages of India are masters of mastication. Mastication! You may ask.

While most of the world gulps things, they chew things.

So are the minority of those blessed and enlightened ones, who are also achievers.

Taking time to reflect on things that have happened to you recently or in the distant past or things that are happening now or may happen tomorrow is one good habit that’s worth cultivating.

The ancestors of India are known primarily for their “concentration” power. They fix their thoughts, or more precisely, lock them, on things they are dealing currently, with such intensity that the presence of anything outside them becomes invisible.

After “absorbing” things like a sponge, they take the data “captured” into the garage of their supreme machine called mind (which you too possess) and start reflecting on them; this they do immediately or sometime later, but they do it nevertheless.

This gives them the power—the power of reflection, which in turn takes them to another level in their consciousness.

But, just think what a typical human being does in today’s racing and blind-following and rusty world (rusty because of its old ways of doing things which have become obviously ineffective)?

He/she holds on to the path that this life takes them along, does the routine things, but never questions the “WHYs” or the “WHATs” of what happening.

That’s because they are bogged down by the worries or the “pressures” or “what’s—next” of their life.

And they never stop, sadly not in their entire life, to reflect on what has happened to them, why something are the way they are in their life, or what they could do (avoid doing) to get better or happier.

Pondering about your life—your only precious life—must occupy an important place among your weekly, or even daily, activities.

Reflection gives you some really unexpected, and sometimes unbelievable, insight into your life or your progress (or lack of it).

Your life is an important business, and it must be dealt seriously; and giving it some reflections regularly will put you in the leagues of highly successful people, who too never stop thinking about the various aspects of their lives.

Who knows, it may be that just that one “long thought process” and contemplation that you need to get off the ground and reach a new island—a relief from the dungeon!!

Unfortunately, people use reflection to worry. They keep brooding over things that are bad in nature or to think about their worries.

Set aside some time to be in solitude (this may be weekly or even daily). Relax yourself and forget about your deadlines and worries for the time being. Relaxation put you in a more resourceful state. Use this time to reflect on your life:

You may think about your goals and plans to reach them.

You may think about your past mistakes (which, by the way, you are repeating now and that which is costing you dearly) and make strategies to overcome them.

You may think about a major decision in your life such as quitting a job for which you are not suited or switching to a new career or getting married or relocating to a new place or breaking an unproductive and harmful habit, or any other major decision.

You may think about what you have learned on that week or from a discussion.

Or you may think about the ways you operate in this world so as to come up with better and effective ways to operate as a human being.

Without this serious time (serious as well as completely relaxed time) devoted to ponder over things you keep repeating the same old patterns which aren’t taking you anywhere. And also you remain the same as were ten years back.

People who are real thinkers don’t remain the same; they keep changing (not their great character if only for a better one) and they keep “upgrading” themselves through “eliminations” and “additions”.

They eliminate their weaknesses and add more that would consolidate their strengths; all this through regularly thinking about their life and its happenings; not by being careless.

This also makes them astute and they are the most pragmatic people you could ever find!!

What are you waiting for? It’s your reign now. Go and think like Buddha!!

Wish you all the riches to come with God’s blessings

Situations that seemed liked an impasse for some, difficult for others, and impossible for still others; but not to them who conquered the unconquerable.

Just remember this irrefutable, cardinal, unwritten, and implicit law of life: Success voluntarily makes a pact with the one whose stubbornness is adamantine and one who, like a hunter, searches for success without any loss in his or her vigor, force, enthusiasm, “fixedness” of mind, or for that matter, the hunter’s instinct!

The equation is always how badly you want to succeed.

Always the question is: How badly do you want it? Is it bad enough (or rather good enough) to make a dent?

Quite often, the number one reason for failure to attain ones goals or only attaining far below of what one had thought or capable of, is that people don’t exert enough power forward, or simply they don’t drive their vehicle at full blast!

What a heart-breaking scene this is!

There are some gentle men and women, who really yearn to be on the touchline, but they quit reluctantly, for the abundance of impatience is their fort. The great truth and solution to this is to be found in God’s word, the Bible,

“A patient man has great understanding, but a quick-tempered man displays folly.”

The patience and impatience referred here also apply to “quitting”, not just to ones temper. The man who is patient would have the endurance, both mentally and physically, to go through any number of obstacles and come out triumphant, whereas the other would stop just before and retrace his steps due to his temperament that allows him not to “wait” or go at a “slower pace.” The outcome is: though the latter wants success as much as the patient man, he quits.

If a survey were to be taken to prove the soundness of this principle, it would bring to the surface the common pattern among the winners throughout the globe—they are all, with no exception, would be hunters, who go after their success like a raging bull chasing a matador.

Like a tiger, they crouch where they have to crouch, and pounce where they have to pounce—but, since they want their “prize” extremely badly, one thing they would never do is that they never yield to anything.

Make it a vow this very minute that you would get that which you long for at any cost, legitimately. Already you have had many mediocre days. Why not shoot for excellent days?

Really worthwhile success is not easy to reach and calls for metal-minds and steel-hearts, and that’s why very few succeed. The bigger the success, the steeper the slope is. As soon as a wannabe-a-success feels the first pain (which is a healthy one of course), experiences his/her first sweat, and realizes his/her first stumble, like an abject insect, he/she starts to retreat!

Because of this worldly “domestic” conditioning, which makes one negative and fragile in heart, as opposed to the “wild” conditioning needed to succeed (for instance, a Mother Teresa’s disposition), a man or woman in the face of his or her adversity simply cringe as if he/she doesn’t amount to anything and/or carry no power to surpass even the smallest of challenges!!

At the same time, success is not as tough as you think; how badly do you want to succeed on at whatever desire you have fixed your mind?

Many inspired men and women often give up (what a poignant tale this has been throughout the ages) even before they actually begin; they exaggerate the size of their target and undermine, more often without their knowledge, their own power residing within themselves, waiting, like a Lantern-Genie, only to be called forth by the possessor.

Sometimes, the brave ones are never afraid to stake even the invaluable things, even their entire life earnings (not just savings), for the sake of a worthwhile, lofty ideal. Only this kind of “INTENSITY” brings monstrous success.

They are severe and stern in their journey with high demands, and sometimes they may even appear like tyrants.

In reality, this approach is fuelled by discontent about their present or former life, from which they are decidedly going to get redemption!!

Yes, more likely, you too have been highly discontented with your life, or frustrated to the core about the insipid things you have created for yourself. Invest this frustration into your very being and witness it taking you to a different, higher plane. Let your discontent or frustration– and the anger that may have emerged from it– be your fuel. Draw from it daily to turn you into a mighty King Kong.

But know what, the “MUST” qualification to succeed at a high altitude is this: you must possess that die-hard attitude, a voracious appetite to see things through, and that longing (that arises as a result of frustration or discontent) to move mountains, or even to destroy them to grains!

Again it boils down to this: “Is your longing bad enough to spread like a wild fire—rapid and uncontrollable–a wild fire, whose progress cannot be contained by anything, nor could it be put out, not even by the best of the best?

This is the kind of mind-robe you must wear; and since you need success so badly and steadfastly, from that moment on it occupies your mind most of the waking hours.

Let your life be a fanfare to others!!!

Human beings (every one of them) on this planet are similar in that they all have, without exception, certain skills, talents, and abilities—and you dear reader, are not an alien to this truth.

Success is a subservient servant to those who have mastered some critical skills and direct them toward a definite end to effectively serve the needs and demands of people.

But…far more important, or at least as much important as possessing impeccable skills, is this: making it a habitual way of life to nurture painstakingly that tender and delicate plant called “CONFIDENCE”.

This is a tender plant because it could be decimated just as easily and in a jiffy, in its initial stages, as could a sapling, if you allow it; but , at the same time you could also shield it meticulously from assaults from every direction—it’s in your hands!

When you have decided staunchly, that you would never in your life let things trample on your confidence what you are essentially doing is that you are nurturing and feeding that sapling which would one day become a giant oak that could neither easily be destroyed by anything nor would let you down!

95% of people, though possessing great skills and practical knowledge, don’t get anywhere, sadly. That’s because of “malnutrition” in confidence—they never consciously build their self-confidence (yes it can and must be developed with conscious effort if you really want to scale high mountains) to the level of a champion, which when built would take them places they could never have thought possible.

People who are champions indeed do have profuse amount of confidence flowing from, around, above and below them, which would rub off on others so often.

Of the 3 Cs of your achievement—Choice, Commitment, and Confidence—Confidence is that point from which you start and reach the other two, the choice and commitment.

Without confidence people don’t whole-heartedly commit or commit at all. They also typically would lack the courage to exercise their power to choose even when they have many choices set before them.

You, in your life so far, may have lost a big opportunity (more likely many such) all because you were afraid to take action steps in order to either make a full-plunge commitment or to choose from various alternatives the best course of action, due to the very absence of healthy self-confidence; the doubts that crept in insidiously like a thief, with each missed chance for progress, spoiling your chances to greatness.

Don’t worry!!

You still have many opportunities coming your way, to be grabbed like a sword grabbed by a fearless warrior to be handled deftly to meet his/her needs and the needs of the mission, regardless of where you stand now.

But, the burning question is: Are you willing to nourish your self-confidence till it becomes a Titan, to which nothing is big enough to be a threat?

If your answer is yes, then incorporating the following 2 points would radically change your life:

1. TWEAKING:

A majority of the winners and “excellence-ers” in every field, at one point or another, knowingly or unknowingly, tweaked their mind so that instead of permitting others to strangle their sapling of self-confidence, which they had been doing, they started to make a drastic shift in how they see themselves, their circumstances and what they believed to be possible for them from that point forward.

And more often than not, this shift came at the lowest point in their career. You may be in your lowest point now; so why not make that shift and make it your job to build a rugged self-confidence?

This is that DECISION stage. Starting today you are going to have an ENTIRELY different outlook on life— that anything is possible for you just as for those champions.

Don’t worry about what (little) you have now (or what you don’t have, for that matter)—many started with so little and built gradually with the hope that they would succeed…and they did!

And don’t, even for so much as an instance, give away this new way of approaching life (like a champion) even in the midst of your toughest life conditions that you will encounter without fail.

2. FLESHING:

This means, figuratively gaining weight. Initially expecting a “skeletonized” confidence to participate in the Sumo wrestling of life would be unfair and one can’t really expect a favorable result.

Just let your self-confidence stand on its own and become bigger to compete with heavy-weights of life.

Taking more responsibilities and doing things (small things first in which you believe you could succeed) successfully with whatever power and confidence you have at your disposal at this time would start a reaction that builds on itself.

Very soon you’ll find that the more you “venture” bravely, the more you succeed; the more and better your confidence has become – so have you!

The bigger you grow, the bigger the problems that could be tackled well and tactfully. The larger would be your surprise!

That’s the secret behind every seemingly notable achievements—the person who does an act of great awe, in essence, must have had a confidence the size of a big, sleeping iceberg!

In the first place, it is this long-healthily-fed confidence that breaks the stubborn doors of challenges and the “impossible”. It has done for others, and can do for you too.

To recapitulate, first make that decision strongly and finally, to convert your confidence into steel, like a champion, and then secondly, participate in activities (which you wouldn’t normally do because of fear and lack of confidence) that you know you need to do and which you think would give you the impetus and growth, and that eluding break.

Day by day, your confidence must soar, intensify, and strengthen; and so would your belief in what you think you are capable of doing.

Finally, a new person would be born to the father TWEAKING and the mother FLESHING, who would inevitably be unstoppable!!

Peter Anand

What stops you from reaching the zenith? What could ever have the power to control or keep bound the greatest creation of the Almighty God—YOU!!

The answer is, or to be more accurate, one of the answers is, COMPLACENCY!!

An apple when not properly refrigerated decays sooner and becomes obsolete. A man or woman experiences decadence, like that innocent apple, when the virus of complacency assails him or her.

Ruben Gonzalez, the great champion in the sport of luge, along with his bulldog-persistence,  never ever became complacent neither with his practice nor with his performance.

He started ever competition with a fresher mindset!!

People who are successful at any greater level and who are in the vanguard inevitably don’t lose their sense of who they were and what they did before they became what they are.

They always instinctively seem to know that their results depend mainly on what they do now and not on their merits or advantages.

They know at the back of their minds, what they are capable of and have accomplished but also that the present is a different and a new situation that they must overcome as a new man or woman.

Dear reader, be on the qui vive when it comes to complacency; never allow this fatal beast swallow your hard-earned success and to destroy the meticulously arranged and constructed stack of cards!!

You may be a man or a woman, boy or a girl just starting out on the venture towards the paradise of success. Just keep reminding yourself about this destructive thinking of being self-satisfied.

An apple can rot but not you or your life just because of a small yet the most malignant of habits!!

Discrimination is your weapon against complacency, as it is with every successful man and woman.

Winners always distinguish between what is good and what is bad; what is right and what is wrong; what is beneficial and what is pernicious, and certainly they eliminate this trait of self-satisfaction from their dictionary.

Start each project as a fresher and always have the mind-set that of a tyro. And face your challenges with alertness and reverence though you feel extremely confident.

Forget about your track record and even forget about your winning moments earlier today and keep going.

Be shielded from the “Complacency” syndrome and you will increase your chances of sustaining your success.

Yes success is important but more important is the retention of success and this habit will boost your chances apart from protecting you from slipping from your standards.

Riches is not just  in money, it means a lot of other things as well.

Keep going beyond your limits habitually.

It is your moment to stretch to become rich!!

Wish you all the riches to come with God’s blessings

From dawn till dusk, the day is impregnated with Santa Claus – the ubiquitous uncanny Santa showering his gifts and amusing children and adult alike!!

This day is your gift day!

Until today you may have been impervious to that thing called “TRUMP CARD”, your trump card to a majestic life.

Just allow the Santa to pour out some incessant and hearty gifts for you.

Once you get your gifts watch out, for a wonderful life would be imminent!!

Come on get aboard. It’s sleigh time with Santa!

1. You can clean up the whole mess!

Don’t think even for a moment, that you cannot change or get rid of the things which you don’t like or things that you have created unconsciously which are haunting and keeping you down!

The decision to see your life differently and the passion to break the jinx are the factors that can take you from where you are to where you would like to go.

The criterion is to start to develop the trust in yourself, that “inner” ability of you which knows no boundaries and controls all the “outer” circumstances!!

What you have created for you in your life that you detest you can stop and start creating something new and that’s absolutely possible!!

2. Let candor be your forte:

Candor or uprightness never fail you. Maybe, this is that elusive element in the makeup of your personality.

The quintessence of success is and has always been HONESTY, INTEGRITY, and OUTSPOKENNESS AND UPRIGHTNESS.

The world may become more deceptive and treacherous but you, my dear companion, don’t digress from the path of being candid and a man/woman of integrity and frankness.

In fact, success, be it monetary or otherwise go hand-in-glove with straightforwardness that has soft touch to it.

3. Develop your inner stamina:

Men and women of matchless victories and achievements have mental stamina that surpasses even the physical stamina of the likes of Hercules and Samson!!

More often than not, it is this shortage of mental power to carry on in the face of chaos and pressures and discouragements that cause the havoc.

Mental stamina can be developed by shifting your focus from “outside” to the “inner”— the task at hand and completely immersing yourself in the job.

Be a “result repellent” – don’t be morbidly worried about the outcomes.

4. Don’t live up to the (ir) hypes:

Most of the time the reason for your lack of peace of mind, ineffectiveness, inefficiencies  and a host of other “problems” is trying to live up to other’s expectations. On top of that, the sad thing is that these expectations are self-created and assumed.

Life should “flow freely” for maximum benefit and discoveries and development.

Just cut off the cord and soon you’ll see that you live on a higher plane and have abilities which were before hidden.

5. Love is all:

Love everyone. Spread love and cheerfulness where you go. You’ll see something pushes you upward be it in your career or any facet of your life.

Unconditional love is not at all a tough thing to adopt. In reality, it is in your very nature.

Belligerence is not your nature.

The “Golden Rule” can never go wrong nor is it a fad. It is here to stay for as long as our earth exists.

Be like a child that is innocuous and pure.

You’ll realize that the ultimate power lies in loving and treating others kindly and gently.

They may be harsh on you but never slip from your place. Be strong on this.

6. Adopt a new powerful paradigm:

Your old ways of looking at things may have been holding you back and the reason for all your sufferings.

It’s always you—your principles and beliefs and your actions.

Adopt principles and values that are sound. Let them lead and guide your life.

Adopt principles that are powerful, pure, rigid, up-lifting, and magnificent. They’ll carry you to high-places for the rest of your life.

7. Become an orphan:

“Dependent” mentality chains you to a place. Don’t allow yourself to be completely dependent on others. Think that you are an orphan.

“Dependent” mentality will thwart your success.

Be a good team player but again don’t lose your “individuality and independency”.

In whatever team you are a part of, always strive to be the “most efficient and effective” individual.

Okay then, that’s what the Santa has to say. It’s been his hope that you’ll get started immediately on a new path.

The ride may have come to an end but your part has started now. Santa is so sure that when you open these gifts and use them, you’ll have no options but to succeed wildly!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A GRAND AND A SPLENDID NEW YEAR!!!!

NOTE: Of course, the “me”, “I” or “I am” indicates you. So please read the poem like it’s written for you, and know what, it is!!

On a sunny morning I was wishing

A life of smooth ride!

Soon I realized, to hold the trophy

I must go against the tide!!

Being on the losing side of a game

I was feeling solemn and hopeless

Only soon to realize the

experience can make me fearless or spineless!!

Amazed and inspired to witness in a shipyard

A majestic and a big ship evolving!

The similar majesty residing in me, I realized

around which my success was revolving!!

Day and night everyday had I been

Worried about my insomnia

Until I realized I hadn’t woken up, more importantly

from my sleep to reach the acme!!

With affluent and achievers around me

I shrank into a small old rag

Only to realize suddenly and quickly

that infinity was my price tag!!

So my goal from this very point on:

To stamp on my fears with my feet

To crush the long-held delusion of fate

To deploy positive thoughts in my fleet

To conquer feat after feat after feat!!

And to fly high above thousands of feet!!!

Wish you all the riches to come with God’s blessings
