life is a game - some tips
Imagine life is a game in which you are juggling some five balls in the air. You name them-? FAMILY / HEALTH? / FRIENDS AND / SPIRIT? .And you are keeping all of these in the air.
You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If yo? drop it, it will bounce back. But the other four balls -? Family,Health,Friends and Spirit are made of glass. If you drop one of these they will be irrevocably scuffed,marked, nicked,damaged or even shattered. They will never be the same.
?
You must understand that and strive for balance in your life. How ?
*
Don"t undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different that each of us isspecial.
*
Don"t set your goals by what other people deem important. Only you know what is best for you.
*
Don"t take for
granted the things closest to your heart. Cling to them as you would your life, for without them life is meaningless.
*
Don"t let your life slip through your fingers by living in the passt or for the future. By living your life one day at a time you live all the days of your life.

Don"t be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect. It is this fragile thread that binds us each together.
*

wings.

*
Yesterday is history.

"When Thomas Edison invented the light bulb, he tried over 2000 experiments before he got it to work. A young reporter asked him how it felt to fail so many times. He said, "I never failed once. I invented the light bulb. It just happened to be a 2000-step process."
"In 1954, Jimmy Denny, manager of the Grand Ole Opry, Fired a singer after one performance. He told him, "You ain't goin' nowhere....son.You ought to go back to drivin' a truck." He went on to become the most popular singer in America named Elvis Presley."
"In 1944, Emmeline Snively, director of the Blue Book Modelling Agency,told modelling hopeful Norma Jean Baker, "You'd better learn secretarial work or else get married." She went on and became Marilyn Monroe."
"In the 1940s, another young inventor named Chester Carlson took his idea to 20 corporations, including some of the biggest in the country. They all turned him down. In 1947 - after seven long years of rejections! He finally got a tiny company in Rochester , New York , the Haloid Company, to purchase the rights to his invention an electrostatic paper-copying process. Haloid became Xerox Corporation we know today."
