The Webster new encyclopedic dictionary defines the word mistake as to choose wrongly; to understand wrongly; to estimate incorrectly; to identify wrongly; a wrong judgment; or a wrong action or statement.
The definition above indicates that anybody can make a mistake irrespective of qualification, position, place of work etc.The word mistake invokes a negative outcome.
Most times bosses, colleagues and partners in the workplace forget the fact that mistakes have often being the mother of invention. Some worthwhile ideas and inventions have actually being a product of mistake. Take the case of correction fluid as an example.
Before somebody begins to get me wrong, am not saying you should go out there and be inventing all manners of mistake. But when they eventually occur, which is obvious once in a while take a positive look at it. As soon as a mistake occurs, the next thing that comes to mind is punishment as a way of correction or as a way to forestall future occurrence.
But in some cases, the reverse has actually produced better results. It has being identified that mistakes can be used to motivate employees.
The story is told about an executive who had lost 10 million pounds at IBM. His boss instead of firing him which seems to be the correct thing to do in that circumstance decided otherwise. When he was called to meet Thomas Watson Jr., president of the company, the young man had already cleared his desk. Do you know why you are here? asked Thomas Watson Jr. I suppose you’re going to fire me? the anxious executive replied. Fire you! Are you crazy? I’ve just spent 10 million pounds on your education.Punishing people for mistakes is a great way to kill off ideas. Once people realize they will suffer retribution when things go awry, they soon learn to play safe.
This is fine if you see an organization merely as a machine, with the people in it merely cogs. However, this approach is almost certainly bound to fail in our fast moving world where it is often more important to be flexible than to always get things right.The freedom to make mistakes is not a license to be reckless. You do not ignore mistakes by simply shrugging your shoulders and saying that too bad. Rather, you use them as an opportunity to encourage yet more learning, to get it right next time, to build fail-safe systems.
According to Dr. David M. Burns Aim for success not perfection.'' Never give up your right to be wrong, because then you will lose the ability to learn new things and move forward with your life''. Remember that fear always lurks behind perfectionism. Confronting your fears and allowing yourself the right to be human can, paradoxically, make you a far happier and more productive person.Try adopting the principle that people can make mistakes but are not permitted to hole the ship below the waterline.
This has stood the test of time. The more you personally commit to the idea of experimentation the better. Involve your team, customers and other stakeholders in your experiments so that they are all sharing the success and any possible failure
So don't be afraid to make mistake,but each time it occour just encourage your self by the mistake and move on.There is always new thing to learn each time you make a mistake.
Goodluck untill we met again,

Why? Why not? Questions that create wealth
"Some people look at things the way they are and say why, while some look at things the way they could be and say why not?"– John Kennedy
I have always marveled at people who are not curious about anything; people who just take everything as it comes, and merely shrug off anything they don’t understand.
I marvel because I can’t understand them! How can anyone see or hear something completely new and not at least try to understand the "why " or "how" of it?I guess many feel that people like that are better off.
As far as they are concerned what they don’t know can’t hurt them. Well perhaps - but I’m afraid I can’t agree at all. I’m inclined to think that the greatest asset, next to a sense of humuor, is a healthy curiosity.
Curiosity may have "killed the cat" but where human beings are concerned, the only thing a healthy curiosity will kill is ignorance.
A healthy curiosity can also eradicate poverty and take an individual or organization to the next level. Most of the inventions and changes in our society are as a result of peoples’ curiosity.
"Why did the apple fall down?" and that resulted to Isaac Newton coming up with the law of gravity. That wasn’t the first time an apple is falling down, nor will he be the first person to witness it happen, but he was the first to ask the question why.
Albert Einstein once remarked "The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality.
It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never loss a holy curiosity.He spent a few years in the "garment center" pushing and pulling racks of dresses through the crowed street.
Now many of those who push these racks or hand trucks can’t see past the front of the truck. They are interested in only one thing-getting the dresses from one place to the next. That’s their job, and what else is there to think about?But our friend happened to be a curious nature.
He was interested in the dresses he transported. He learned their prices, and wondered why they were priced so high. During his spare time he went about finding out how much the material per dress was worth. He learned why manufacturing the dresses was so costly and thought about methods to cut down this cost. He went on to learn all he could about the business from his position behind a hand truck. It covered some years- and when the opportunity to go into business for himself arrived, he was ready. His ideas on lower manufacturing costs, and therefore lower prices for the same quality merchandise, couldn’t help but make him a success. He is now hiring many people to push his hand trucks around; and these people would have the same opportunity he had, if they would just exercise the same curiosity.
Dave Sutherland remarked "Sometimes the questions you ask are more important than the answers you receive."Some school of thought advised that we ask open-ended questions to enable us get positive response from people. The same can be adopted in trying to get positive response from ourselves. If you form the habit of asking questions when you come to a crossroad instead of giving up, the possibilities of coming out with answers that will not only proffer solutions to your challenges but is capable of changing the world will be endless.
The story is told of a young Igbo man. As a fresh university graduate, all his effort to secure contemporary employment met with countless failure. Surviving became so excruciating that he would rather die than live on. Suddenly, an idea struck his mind. He realized he could make a living from dealing in used clothes. "Why not?" he asked himself. So he went about the neighbourhood collecting items that the owners no longer needed - with a big sac, he would go from house to house requesting for these materials. And in a short while, he had amassed clothes of different shades-in size, style and texture. All at virtually no cost save his time and energy.Then he began putting his idea into practice – to recycle his collections. First, he loosened the entire fabric of each garment. Turned them inside out, and reassembled them in their former fashion. The result - the same old clothes, but relatively new in appearance. Can you believe this? His idea also introduced a new fashion in town. He went on to make a trade out of his discovery. And the business became so lucrative as to attract more participants. Worthless fabrics that were no good, only for the refuse heaps, began attracting money. Today, the man through this business acquired some of life’s conveniences to keep him comfortable.
According to Benjamin Franklin "The way to wealth, if you desire it, is as plain as the way to market. It depends chiefly on two words, industry and frugality; that is waste neither time nor money but make use of both.
."Dr. Russell Conwell through his classical speech, "Acres of Diamonds" which he gave more than six thousand times inspired one woman. (This same story has inspired millions all over the world.
If you have not read the book "Acres of Diamonds" please do. You can even download from the Internet.). Back to our story.
She heard Dr. Conwell say that everyone has a great creative, inventive idea that are worth vastly more than all the gold ever mined. She believed him in spite of her doubting husband. Later, in her job as a menial file clerk pinning collated papers together, she stuck herself with a straight pin and had an intuitive flash that there had to be a better way. Then something inside of her began to tell her why not. She experimented with the idea and came up with paper clip. That was how she invented the paper clip, which made her a millionaire. Today, in the center of Philadelphia, in United States of America a six-story-high paper clip stands as a constant reminder that anyone can have a life-serving, life-benefiting, life prospering idea that will make everyone better off and no one worse of.

DREAMS HAVE PRICES
Dreams have prices
His name was Joseph Lister, and he was a second-generation physician born in England in 1827. Back in the days when he began practising Medicine, surgery was a painful, grisly affair.
If you had the misfortune of being injured and requiring surgery in the mid-1800s, here’s what you could have expected: you would have been taken to a hospital’s surgical theater, a building that was separate from the main hospital to prevent the regular patients from becoming upset by the screaming.
(Anesthesia had not yet been developed.) You would have been strapped to a table that looked a lot like the one in your kitchen, under which sat a tub of sand, positioned to catch blood.A physician likely surrounded by a group of observers and assistants would have performed your surgery.
All of them would be dressed in the regular street cloths they wore throughout the course of the day while travelling around town and treating patients. The instruments the doctor used would have been pulled from a nearby drawer where they had been placed (unwashed) after the previous surgery.
And if your surgeon needed his hands free while working on you, he might have held this surgical knife between his teeth.Your chances of surviving surgery would be a little better than 50 percent.
If you had the misfortune of having your operation in a military hospital, your chances of surviving would go down to about 10 percent. Of surgery during that era, one contemporary doctor wrote, “A man laid on the operating table in one of our surgical hospitals is exposed to more chances of death than the English soldier on the field of Waterloo.” Like the other surgeons of his time, Lister was distressed by the death rate of his patients, but he was ignorant of the cause.
However, he was determined to discover a way to save more of his patients.Lister’s first major breakthrough came after his friend Thomas Anderson, a chemistry professor, gave him some writings.
The papers were written by scientist Louis Pastuer. In them the French scientist stated his opinion that gangrenes was caused not by air, but by bacteria and germs present in air. Lister thought those ideas were remarkable. And he theorized that if the dangerous microbes could be eliminated, his patients would have a better chance of avoiding gangrene, blood poisoning, and other infections that often killed them.
When Lister, who was working at a hospital in Edinburgh, presented his beliefs to the senior surgeons, he was taunted, ridiculed, and rejected. Each day as he made his rounds, his colleagues insulted and enticed him mercilessly.
He was an outcast.Despite the rejection of his peers and an inherently gently nature, Lister refused to back down. He continued his work and waited.
One day, two days, then four days passed. To his joy, after four days there were no signs of fever or blood poisoning. After six weeks, the boy was able to walk again.Amid criticism, Lister used carbolic acid in all his procedures.
During 1865 and 1866, he treated eleven patients with compound fractures, and none of his patients contracted infections. As he continued his new procedures, he did research to improve his methods, finding additional antiseptic substances that worked even better.In 1867, Lister published his findings, and still the medical profession ridiculed him.
For more than a decade, he communicated his findings and encouraged other doctors to adopt his practice. Finally in 1881, sixteen years after his first success with a patient, his peers at the international medical congress held in London recognized his advances.
They called his work perhaps the greatest advance that surgery had made. In 1883, he was knighted. In 1899, he was made a baron. Today, if you’ve had any kind of surgery (if you’ve not, l don’t pray you do), you owe Dr. Joseph Lister a debt of gratitude.His determination secured your safetyTo make a change you must be willing to pay a price.
Men and women who have changed this world didn’t come about it over night. Though they were rejected, the end product was always motivating them forward.
What is it God has placed in your hand today? That could be surviving grace of someone somewhere. Don’t expect to have the world carrying you shoulder high when you come about something new. It’s only you that sees’ it in your mind’s eye and only you can see it to it’s concluding end. Do not be caught wasting your valuable time with dream busters, they will always be around and you are doomed if you spend your energy proving to them that you can do it. Prove it by taking action.Take a look around you. Someone invented all that you see.
But the truth of the matter is that whoever is involved paid a price to see turn from dreams to reality. If they can, you can. Good luck.

TO ACHIEVE MORE GOALS,SAVE TIME
A definition of time management might be a process of gaining flexibility and cutting back time.
The advantage to having a time management plan is that we are loosing something that brings us reward and gaining something that brings us bigger rewards. We end up with a “no loosing” situation if our time management plan is right.
To develop a successful time management plan we must first evaluate our time.
We must sit down and ask ourselves
how long does it take us to eat?
How long does it take us to get dressed and groom for work?
How long does it take us to prepare the meals we have to eat?
Everything we do takes a certain amount of time. You might start out by writing down just how much time it takes to do each of your very have to tasks each day.
Then sit back and evaluate your list. Are you wasting 10 minutes here and there on those have to items that could be used for something else? Where our time goes is an essential element to determine for our entire time management plan if we want to begin spending more quality with the most important people of our lives and less wasted time on some routine task.
This is the absolute first step of creating your own personalized time management plan, a time management plan that will allow your more time to do the things in life that are most important to you. You must determine where you are wasting time and then decide how to use that time more effectively.
Once that time is lost, there is no calling it back. Another important element of creating a successful time management plan is to be sure and finish tasks before moving onto another task, unless you are at work, in a job that requires doing multiple tasks at one time (multi-tasking).
Once you finish one task, move onto the next task and follow in pursuit of finishing all tasks. Once you finish the last task, sit back for a moment in a comfortable position and think of what you accomplished.
How much time did it take you to complete task? Don’t forget to be keeping down your start time and end time. Of course this type of listing time of tasks works best for those things you do as routine each day.
You want to work on completing the tasks in as little time as possible so you that you have to add in the unexpected tasks of the day or…….much better…….so that you have time to do something you really, really want to do, something that is not routinely required of you to do.
For example, like visit on the phone with a favorite friend, your daughter or mother, or whoever, read some in the books you want to complete at some point or another in your lifetime.
A successful time management plan provides us with a source for more flexible schedules. When we have flexibility we have more time for ourselves. Once you have determined your priorities for time usage, then you can start adding tasks that you been putting off because you just don’t have the time to do them. So….you now need another list of goals and plans of tasks and things you want to do but never have the time to do. One of the best ways of keeping these lists is on your computer where you can quickly erase and add to. But then again, paper in a notebook is also good, perhaps a special book.
Time management is the process of working to succeed. When we work to succeed we reach our goals. We first have to decide what those goals are, of course, and then work toward them using our time management plan. You will probably have to sit down and really ponder on what is needed to reach each goal of set of goals, and of course, decide how much time each step of the way you will need.
Some people like to set short term goals, reach that goal and then set a long term goal. It might be a better plan to try and set short and long-
Time management is essential since it demands that a person plan, act on those plans and stay focused on those goals with motivation.
You must also keep reality in mind, and plan for the things out of your control that could go wrong and therefore steal time from your time management plan. Some examples would be computer failures, family illness, personal illness, inches and inches of snow and ice, horrible sudden tornados and hurricanes.
It is always wise to include elements of your time management plan in accordance to what could happen out of your control. You may want to have a plan ahead of time of using your time in some other manner if your computer fails. Catch up on your paper filing or something. Right now for me, I am experiencing an internet outage.
Time management is working to succeed. If you want to succeed then you must work hard every day to meet your goals. I recently cut down my preparing and eating breakfast time by about ten minutes. Instead of my usual meal, I now mix up a Zone Shake and drink it while doing some other chore like adding to or emptying out the dishwasher, or even while opening up my daily e-mails. In reality here I am using ten extra minutes to work on my goals, rather than preparing and eating a regular breakfast.
so I encourage you to manage your time well,because TIME is money

THREE SURE WAY TO ACHIEVE OUTRAGEOUS SUCCESS
Always bear in mind that your own resolution to success is more important than any other one thing," counseled Abraham Lincoln.
This resolution is made up of three essential features. Success happens when you follow a simple three-step formula.
1. success happens when you have a clear idea of where you want to go.
2. success happens when you have a strong feeling about the value of what you are doing.
3.success happens when you are able to do the physical work necessary to rearrange the world to meet with your vision.
Miss any of these three steps and you get what most people get: a life of mediocrity and failure. Pursue these three steps and you get what most people long for: a life of success, where all needs are effortlessly met.
Thus, success consists of three essential parts: thinking, feeling, and acting. The thinking stage is making discoveries, creating choices, fashioning goals, and outlining commitments.
This conceptual stage is then followed by an emotional stage. The emotion is the fuel that fires up the ideas. This emotional energy is enthusiasm, or en theos which means to be filled with divine energy.
Once we have recognized our goals, we have to feel them. This feeling stage is what brings the ideas to life. Once these feelings build up, they form passion. When you are passionate about something, then you are highly motivated and are ready to act.
Rev sam Adeyemi explains the value of feeling your way to success: "You can have anything you want if you want it desperately enough. You must want it with an inner exuberance that erupts through the skin and joins the energy that created the world." Without strong feelings about your goals, they will be squelched by your own inner comfort zone and your own limiting beliefs. Furthermore, a single word of criticism from someone or a single obstacle along the way is enough to stop you completely.
Thus, your enthusiasm, your passion, your burning desire is the fuel that converts ideas into actions, and these actions, in turn, will change the shape of your world. The final stage, then, is action. When you move toward your aspirations, things start to shift and change both within you and around you. Like a blacksmith, you have to hammer the shape of your ideas on the anvil of action. Yet premature action is foolish.
Action that is tempered with a clear ideas and galvanized with passion is action that will get you where you want to go. The inclination to just act alone is not helpful. Heading in the wrong direction is not of much benefit to you.
And acting without burning desire is action that will soon collapse into inertia again. As you pursue these three essential steps to success, you will create excellence. And you will also find that there is little competition on the road to excellence.
YOU WILL SUCCESSED

This resolution is made up of three essential features. Success happens when you follow a simple three-step formula.
1. success happens when you have a clear idea of where you want to go.
2. success happens when you have a strong feeling about the value of what you are doing.
3.success happens when you are able to do the physical work necessary to rearrange the world to meet with your vision.
Miss any of these three steps and you get what most people get: a life of mediocrity and failure. Pursue these three steps and you get what most people long for: a life of success, where all needs are effortlessly met.
Thus, success consists of three essential parts: thinking, feeling, and acting. The thinking stage is making discoveries, creating choices, fashioning goals, and outlining commitments.
This conceptual stage is then followed by an emotional stage. The emotion is the fuel that fires up the ideas. This emotional energy is enthusiasm, or en theos which means to be filled with divine energy.
Once we have recognized our goals, we have to feel them. This feeling stage is what brings the ideas to life. Once these feelings build up, they form passion. When you are passionate about something, then you are highly motivated and are ready to act.

IF YOU NEED EASY SUCCESS,BE HAPPY
Happiness is something many of us strive for.
Why is it so hard to achieve, especially at times when you need it the most? How do we change a gloomy mood into a lighter or happier one?.
There are some things within our power that will help us accomplish these goals. What are some benefits of happiness that could encourage you to work towards it even more?
• Health
• Self Confidence
• A sense of Purpose
• More Productivity
• Achieve Your Goals
• Weight Loss
Funny thing is that the above list also works in reverse. If you are healthy, self confident and all the rest listed, than you will most likely be happier.
Sometimes happiness is staring us right in the face. Here are some ways that you can create happiness in your life.
1. Exercise: It appears that exercising comes up a lot when we are speaking about improving various things in our lives. It has been shown to improve mood by making us healthier and increasing endorphins.
2. Foods & Diet: Eating chocolate is probably more of a pleasure than sustained happiness, even though it can provide us with a short-lived boost. A healthy diet though is vital for our health and happiness. Too much sugar and junk foods are provisional emotional boosters. In the long run these problem foods will degrade us physically as well as emotionally. Eat a healthy diet with plenty of fruits and vegetables, including raw veggies. Cut back on unhealthy foods and don't "Super Size" it. Supplements: If you are not receiving all of your nutrients in your diet then you may want to supplement by taking vitamins. There are some specific supplements that target your mood. You could discuss these with your health practitioner.
3.Music: Music can bring miracles to your mood. Go ahead and listen to something upbeat and happy.
4. Rewards: Happiness comes from rewards as well. They can be simple things. You find a great bargain on something you been wanting. Maybe someone offers you a simple item of interest. You do a task and are complimented on it by someone else or yourself. Even finding a coin on the sidewalk can give you a "Reward" feeling that can bring happiness to you. The greatest reward can come from giving a compliment to someone or saying a kind word.
5. Gratitude: Be grateful for what you have. This simple statement can make a giant difference in your life! Everyday think of everything you have. The enormous things, and the little things. Are you living in a cardboard box? No. Then be very grateful. Yes? Be grateful for the cardboard box. Have gratitude for friends and family, the home you live in, the food you eat. Isn't it great having air to breath, freedom to go where you want. Don't take these for granted but have gratitude and give thanks.
6. Love: Well Love can clearly bring happiness. Love for your spouse, friends, neighbors and strangers. Give Love and you will receive Love. Learn to Love Yourself. Let's all remember that when we interact with others.
7.Enjoyment: Do what you enjoy. This could be a hobby or going for a walk in the park. If you do things that you like it's bound to bring happiness.
8.Forgiveness: Try a bit harder to say kind words to others. Place yourself in the other's person place for a moment. Sure there are some people that act so mean and hateful. Remember you only hurt yourself when you return meanness or hold resentment and anger inside.
9. Help Others: Find ways to make others happy. You may be surprised that by willingly helping others to find joy can have a positive impact on you as well. Help others to find meaning in life. Keep them company.
10.Build Self Confidence: Do your work the best you can. Learn new skills. Find meaning in your career and life. Enjoy a new hobby or game. You can boost your self-confidence by learning new and enjoyable things. Raise your self-confidence and you raise your happiness. Happiness can make you smarter! Is it really surprising that positive attracts positive? If you do these things you will increase your happiness. What is the most important thing to you? Is it money, a fancy car or a mansion, maybe your health? What about happiness? Well let's think a moment…. If you have happiness, all the happiness you want or need, would that be the most important thing to you? What good is money or the rest without happiness? If you are truly happy you won't need to worry about the rest. If you require money to be happy then you will have it. Maybe the saying, "Money Can't Buy Happiness", should be "Happiness Can Produce Money". Try to release all anger and negative emotions. You can accomplish this easier once you realize you are only hurting yourself and other loved ones around you. Sure it will take regular practice. You may struggle with this, but it can become second nature after awhile. It's up to you. Do you want to be negative and unhappy or positive and learn to be happier? You can start now by adding positive attributes to your life. Be good, smile and put on a happy face!Thank you

GET MOTIVATED,HERE IS 5 SURE WAY TO ACHIEVE MORE SUCCESS.
Let me ask you this question,Have you ever dream to be successfull.if you are,keep it up,you are on the line.if you have not pls start today,Dreaming is free.
Now The following are Five action steps you can apply today to achieve more success in your life:
1. Positive Affirmations
Our subconscious mind is a wonderful tool for success or failure. It will do what we tell it to do. It all depends on what thoughts we feed it. So why not feed your inner mind with only positive thoughts. The following are some examples of positive affirmations you can feed your inner mind for success:
* “Today, I will win because I have faith, courage and enthusiasm.
”* “I see failure only as a signpost on my road to success.
”* “When I feel stress, I will relax and release my stress before I take on my next task.
”* “I always write down my priorities, thinking of my responsibilities. I may not get everything done, but I will do the most productive thing possible at every given moment.
”* “I am a winner, I work for a winning organization, and because of my contribution and cooperation we will keep on winning.
”* “Today, I will see opportunity in every challenge offered to me.
2. Positive Language
Recent research has come out that 75% of daily conversation is negative. Whether it is the words we use or the body language, we need to communicate in a positive manner all the time.The following are some examples of how you can turn negative words into positive communication:
* Instead of saying “problem,” call it “opportunity.
”* Instead of an action being a “failure,” describe it as a “learning experience.”
* Instead of “I have to,” say “I choose to.” This gives control for your actions back to you.
* Instead of saying, “There’s nothing I can do,” say, “Let’s look at our alternatives.”
* Instead of saying, “That’s just the way I am,” say, “I choose a different approach.”
* Instead of saying, “He makes me so mad,” say, “I control my own feelings.”
If you notice, by using the positive response, you have control over your actions and life.
3. Exercise
A Gallup survey found the following among men and women who have taken up exercise recently:
* 66 percent report a more relaxed life
* 62 percent a new surge of energy
* 55 percent less stress
* 51 percent better looks
* 46 percent more confidence
* 45 percent better love life
* 44 percent greater job satisfaction
* 37 percent more creative on their jobsThese are great motivators to exercise! Next time you feel demotivated, give your body a workout.
Recent research reports that as little as fifteen minutes three times a week has profound effects. Get moving. Get motivated.
4. Take Risks
We all live our lives in comforts zones, avoiding risky situations, avoiding the potential to fail. It’s real safe for us.
But in order to get ahead of your competition and master the ongoing change in your life, you must go out of your comfort zone. Start one step at a time. Try that little new thing, that different approach. It could be as simple as taking different routes to and from work.
Once in a while I like to “take the road less traveled” to stir up my creative juices.
Then, keep stepping out of your zone. It may seem uncomfortable at first. But the more you do it, the more it will seem natural and you will see an increase in your creative juices and opportunities you never thought about before.
5. Positive Reading
Read about the lives of successful people. Make sure you read only those people that embrace the timeless values that make them truly successful through the ages.
Not the “success today, scandal tomorrow” success stories that we are experiencing today. People like Benjamin Franklin, Abraham Lincoln, Mahatma Gandhi, and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. papa Bishop oyedepo, Rev sam Adeyemi ,Pastor mathew Ashimolowo.pastor chris oyakilome,Dr sunny obaz ojagbese are good examples. These are people who overcame enormous challenges, created real value for others, or changed other people’s lives for the better.
So for you to achieve more success, just apply this simple step and I bet you will be glad you did
untill I see you again,live a successfull life

BUILD YOUR SELF ESTEEM,LOVE YOURSELF
One of the most powerful lessons in my life was the awareness that loving myself is very key to my happiness and emotional well-being.
It is a fact that many people are not even aware that loving ourselves is a powerful force in our lives and can be used to remedy many heartaches and pain. It gives us clarity of mind and motivation to be a better person and achieve greater things for ourselves, our mind, and our body.
Before now I used to complain about so many thing about myself,Untill I realise that I had no
choice but to take myself the Way I found it,be happy about who I am,tell myself that I am the best person ever created,love myself and then find new way to improve myself.
Loving yourself is not to be confused with being self-centered or narcissistic which basically means being engrossed with oneself and one's own affairs. It is not about being egoistical and conceited. There is a huge difference between these two.
You need to know that when you love yourself you will feel connected with the inner beautiful person that you are inside. We are all a being of light but that light will not be bright if you fail to spark it and give it life. To give it life is to give it love and when love flows within you, you will begin the process of loving yourself.
Understand this, when you do not love yourself enough or love yourself first, you give permission for negative or unhappy things to happen to you.
Several symptoms to look out for when you need to love yourself more:
:: When you stay in an abusive relationship and continue to accept abuse and hostility. You mistake this to be heroic act to safeguard the family unit, when in reality you are just being insecured. Because you don't love yourself enough you disallow yourself to see things for what When you solve your problems by taking drugs, or getting yourself drunk.
::When you do not love yourself enough, you allow for these self-abuses for they are nothing more than just that. Be aware that your lack of self-love leads you to self-destruction.
:: When you get to be fat and ugly and you don't like how you feel about it. If you love yourself well enough, your appearance and health will be important to you. When you begin to love yourself you will begin to respect your body and your health.
Understand this, your soul is sacred, honour it. Once you know how to love yourself and love yourself first, you will be guided to make the right decisions, take responsibility for your life, achieve clarity of mind and peace of heart.
"You can explore the universe looking for somebody who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself, and you will not find that person anywhere.” - Anonymous quote.
It has nothing to do with not loving other people or not taking responsibility or making sacrifices for others. Your responsibilities towards other do not change. What needs to change is your attitude and responsibily to yourself - if you love yourself only then you will truly learn how to love other people. what you truly breed, you will beget the benefits of that love. Make daily affirmation that you love yourself.
So I encourage you to love yourself starting from today,No matter wherever you may be.who ever you are,your career,your background does not count here.It all depend on you.Don't say nobody love you,LOVE yourself first and people will love.Give yourself some love today.
Remember" self help is the best help"
Best luck

How to set up a Goal
HOW TO SET UP A GOAL
Here is what micheal Russell say about goal setting
Many people struggle with setting goals either because they do not know what to choose for the goal, or they are not sure of the process to accomplish this activity. Let's look at some of the well-known factors used for goal setting and then refine it to a laser focus so that you can accomplish your goals.
Be their personal or business, the common knowledge is this: the goal must be 1. Specific,
1.Specific
2.Measurable,
3. Attainable,
4.Result oriented
5. Time defined.
SMART is the acronym. Let's pick a common enough goal for many folks at the start of a new year: to lose weight. Now let's apply our techniques to this goal and see what we come up with. To be specific means that there is a clear outcome and a defined reason for doing this. For our example, you might say,
"I will lose 40 pounds this year. I want to do this because I will feel better, look better and live longer". We are going into this in more detail in a minute, but for now understand that we must get to the details of the reason for the goal and also clearly detail out what needs to be done to accomplish it.
To be measurable means simply that there must be some way to know that we have hit our target and some milestones along the way to keep us on track to it. "My target weight loss is 4 pounds per month, which is one pound per week". Easily tracked with our scale, this let's us know if we need to work harder or change our approach to accomplish the goal. Attainable should be obvious - to say, "I am going to lose forty pounds this week". is clearly folly and could possibly kill you if you tried! Forty pounds a year is easily attainable, especially because we have broken it into milestones by month and week
. We have made our goal results oriented with our 'why' statement following the goal statement. "I want to do this because I will feel better, look better and live longer". (Again, this is a short example. When you do this, absolutely heap on the benefits! That's what keeps you going.) Losing forty pounds sounds rather boring and painful; feeling better and living longer are the kind of exciting ideas that can keep you motivated.
The time constraint is important because without it there is really no way to measure our progress and it becomes very easy to forget the whole thing and start drifting again. Because the time factor helps to create a little urgency, it will keep us on track. We have, with our example, got weekly, monthly and yearly measurements to track. The description above is mirrored in nearly every goal setting book and session. It's good advice, but misses a key element." Action"!
All the goal setting in the world means nothing until there is some action towards its accomplishment and that's where this whole thing often collapses. Now we need to take the goal,and break it down into specific, single actions to take.
One helpful method is called 'backward planning', which just means that you see the end result clearly and then define the step that occurred just before that. With a question like "In order for that to happen, what needs to happen first?" you can go backward in time from the result desired to precisely where you sit today. You have just built a map of all the little detailed actions required to accomplish your goal.
For losing weight some, (and I emphasis 'some' because this is a short article), of the steps would be
:: Stop eating fatty junk food. (This is a goal in itself and should be detailed out also:
:: Throw my candy bars away on a certain date.
:: Stock the pantry with healthy snacks that I enjoy by a certain date.)
::Drink 4 liters of water each day.
(How are you to physically do that? Do you need to carry water with you all the time? yes
::Exercise each day. (What forms of exercise? Starting at what level? What increase each week?) Continue on this way, peeling out the details of each activity, until you can think of no more.
You now have a clearly defined set of actions to take at specific times to accomplish your goal. Remember that it's your goal and can be adjusted to conditions if need be. Meaning that the only way to start is to start, knowing that you may not have all the steps and answers right now and that changes can be incorporated into the plan. Changes will certainly occur, but you have a plan that features the only things you truly control - your actions.
Dear friend you can see that this write up by micheal Russell is a good start,so the remaining depend on you.TAKE ACTION TODAY. Get started Now
Best luck

Let's look at some of the well-known factors used for goal setting and then refine it to a laser focus so that you can accomplish your goals.
Be their personal or business, the common knowledge is this: the goal must be 1. Specific,
1.Specific
2.Measurable,
3. Attainable,
4.Result oriented
5. Time defined.
SMART is the acronym. Let's pick a common enough goal for many folks at the start of a new year: to lose weight. Now let's apply our techniques to this goal and see what we come up with. To be specific means that there is a clear outcome and a defined reason for doing this. For our example, you might say,
"I will lose 40 pounds this year. I want to do this because I will feel better, look better and live longer". We are going into this in more detail in a minute, but for now understand that we must get to the details of the reason for the goal and also clearly detail out what needs to be done to accomplish it.
To be measurable means simply that there must be some way to know that we have hit our target and some milestones along the way to keep us on track to it. "My target weight loss is 4 pounds per month, which is one pound per week". Easily tracked with our scale, this let's us know if we need to work harder or change our approach to accomplish the goal. Attainable should be obvious - to say, "I am going to lose forty pounds this week". is clearly folly and could possibly kill you if you tried! Forty pounds a year is easily attainable, especially because we have broken it into milestones by month and week
. We have made our goal results oriented with our 'why' statement following the goal statement. "I want to do this because I will feel better, look better and live longer". (Again, this is a short example. When you do this, absolutely heap on the benefits! That's what keeps you going.) Losing forty pounds sounds rather boring and painful; feeling better and living longer are the kind of exciting ideas that can keep you motivated.
The time constraint is important because without it there is really no way to measure our progress and it becomes very easy to forget the whole thing and start drifting again. Because the time factor helps to create a little urgency, it will keep us on track. We have, with our example, got weekly, monthly and yearly measurements to track. The description above is mirrored in nearly every goal setting book and session. It's good advice, but misses a key element." Action"!
All the goal setting in the world means nothing until there is some action towards its accomplishment and that's where this whole thing often collapses. Now we need to take the goal,and break it down into specific, single actions to take.
One helpful method is called 'backward planning', which just means that you see the end result clearly and then define the step that occurred just before that. With a question like "In order for that to happen, what needs to happen first?" you can go backward in time from the result desired to precisely where you sit today. You have just built a map of all the little detailed actions required to accomplish your goal.
For losing weight some, (and I emphasis 'some' because this is a short article), of the steps would be
:: Stop eating fatty junk food. (This is a goal in itself and should be detailed out also:
:: Throw my candy bars away on a certain date.
:: Stock the pantry with healthy snacks that I enjoy by a certain date.)
::Drink 4 liters of water each day.
(How are you to physically do that? Do you need to carry water with you all the time? yes
::Exercise each day. (What forms of exercise? Starting at what level? What increase each week?) Continue on this way, peeling out the details of each activity, until you can think of no more.
You now have a clearly defined set of actions to take at specific times to accomplish your goal. Remember that it's your goal and can be adjusted to conditions if need be. Meaning that the only way to start is to start, knowing that you may not have all the steps and answers right now and that changes can be incorporated into the plan. Changes will certainly occur, but you have a plan that features the only things you truly control - your actions.
Dear friend you can see that this write up by micheal Russell is a good start,so the remaining depend on you.TAKE ACTION TODAY. Get started Now
Best luck

"Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence.
Talent will not;
Nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.
Genius will not;
Unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.
Education will not;
The world is full of educated derelicts.
Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.
The slogan "Press On" has solved, and always will solve, the problems of the human race.
Calvin Coolidge.
