THOUGHTS AND REFLECTIONS

In life, there are usually options to choose from. When we have spent so long a time a time in a place or on a thing, it is up to us to make up our minds on what to do. We can look around this beautiful world created by GOD filled with wonderful people and other resources to draw inspiration and strength to get fired to a better place where others can draw strength from us or we can choose to remain "comfortable", lament over our situation or create excuses why we have remained who we are or where we have been or why we cannot alter the status quo. Truth is, change is the law of life. No one remains the same forever. You either get better or get worse.

THOUGHTS AND REFLECTIONS

As much as we can, we must be our brother's keeper. Clothe him when he is naked, feed him when he is hungry, visit him when he is lonely, reassure him when in doubt and strengthen him when he is weak. When we abandon him and he gets desolate and desperate then the peace around him gets threatened. We must not declare "it is none of my business". Remember that threat to peace somewhere is a threat to peace everywhere. It is only a matter of time...

12 THINGS YOU NEED TO REALLY GET RID OF IN THE NEXT 12 MONTHS

 If you want the next 12 months to be different than the past 12 months, look at your habits.

Changing a habit, especially a bad one, is among the most powerful forces you can employ to make your life and business better.

Here are 12 habits many of us repeatedly struggle with. If you recognize yourself in any of these, you really need to get rid of them--and this time next year, you could be free of the consequences they cause.

10 GRAMMAR MISTAKES EVEN SMART PEOPLE MAKE

How well you use words can make a lasting impression on people. Wield those words skillfully and people may perceive you in any number of positive lights — as intelligent, poised, persuasive, funny, to name a few. But even one little grammatical slip can have the opposite effect.

Here are 10 incorrectly used words that can make you look bad.

1. Irregardless and unthaw

These are not words. "Regardless" and "thaw" are sufficient and don't need any senseless prefixes mucking them up.

2. Bring and take

When using these words as commands think in terms of direction. People bring things toward you and take things away from you. Correct examples: "Please bring your report to my office" and "Please take this report to the receptionist."

THOUGHTS AND REFLECTIONS

Being careful is not being slow, it is not being indecisive, it is not being clueless, it is not being short of options, it is not being weak, it is not being insensitive, it is not being dull, it is not being slack, it is not wasting time, it is not procrastinating, it is not wasting opportunities

THOUGHTS AND REFLECTIONS

In achieving our dreams,faith is no substitute for hard work, neither is hard work substitute for faith. We work hard because we have faith that our hard work will pay off and have faith because we have worked hard. Hard work and faith complement each other and do not substitute each other.
