Hard work pays off in the future. Laziness pays off now.
Hard Work Pays off?
I Question This as Hard Work Only Pays off IF
Other Folks Know and
Applies HUMANITY in Work, Play, Friends and
Family.
A conscience is what hurts when all your other parts
feel so good.
Bills travel through the mail at twice the speed
of checks.
This is True as Debtors Don't Apply Humanity with a touch of Patience.
Two wrongs are only the beginning.
Trouble on a Landslide.
Evil is that which one believes of
others. It is a sin to believe evil of
others, but it is seldom
a mistake. --

" ATTITUDE IS EVERYTHING"
****************************************************
Jerry was the kind of guy you love to hate.
He was always in a good mood and always had something positive
to say.
When someone would asked him how he was doing, he would
reply
"If I were any better, I would be twins!"
He was a unique manager, he even had several waiters on staff who
had
followed him around from restaurant to restaurant. The reason
the waiters
followed Jerry was because of his attitude.
He was a natural motivator. If an employee was
having a bad day, Jerry was
there telling the employee how to look
on the positive side of the situation.
Seeing this style really made me curious, so one day
I went up to Jerry and
asked him, "I don't get it! You can't be positive
person all of the time. How do
you do it?"
Jerry replied, "Each morning I wake
up and say to myself, 'Jerry, you have two
choices today. You can choose
to be in a good mood or you can choose to be
in a bad mood.' I choose to be in
a good mood.
Each time something bad happens,
I can choose to be a victim or I can
choose to learn from
it. I choose to learn from it.
Every time someone comes to
me complaining, I can choose to accept their
complaining or I can point
out the positive side of life. I choose the positive side
of life."
"Yeah, right, but it's not
that easy," I protested.
"Yes it is," Jerry said. "Life
is all about choices. When you cut away all the
junk,
every situation is a
Choice. You choose how you react to situations. You
choose how people will affect
your mood. You choose to be in a good or bad
mood. The bottom line: It's your choice how you live life."
I reflected on what Jerry said.
Soon thereafter, I left the restaurant industry to
start my own business. We lost
touch, but I often thought about him when I
made
a choice about life instead of reacting to it.
Several years later, I heard
that Jerry did something you are never supposed
to do in a restaurant business: he
left the back door open one morning and
was held up at gunpoint
by three armed robbers.
While trying to open the safe, his
hand, shaking from nervousness, slipped off
the combination. The robbers panicked
and shot him.
Luckily, Jerry was found relatively
quickly and rushed to the local trauma
center.
After 18 hours of surgery and weeks of
intensive care, Jerry was released
from the hospital with fragments of the
bullets still in his body.
I saw Jerry about six months after the accident.
When I asked him how he
was, he replied, "If I were
any better, I'd be twins. Wanna see my scars?"
I declined to see his wounds, but did ask him what
had gone through his mind
as the robbery took place. "The first thing that went
through my mind was that I
should have locked the back door,"
Jerry replied.
"Then, as I lay on the floor, I remembered that
I had two choices: I could
choose to live, or I could choose
to die. I chose to live."
"Weren't you scared? Did you lose consciousness?" I
asked.
Jerry continued, "The paramedics were great.
They kept telling me I was going
to be fine. But when they wheeled me into the emergency
room and I saw the
expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses,
I got really scared. In their
eyes, I read, 'He's a dead
man.' I knew I needed to take action."
"What did
you do?" I asked.
"Well, there was a big, burly nurse shouting
questions at me," said Jerry. "She
asked if I was allergic to
anything. 'Yes,' I replied. The doctors and nurses
stopped working as they waited
for my reply, I took a deep breath and yelled,
'Bullets!'
Over their laughter, I told
them, 'I am choosing to live. Operate on me as if I
am alive, not dead."
Jerry lived thanks to the skill of his doctors, but also
because of his amazing attitude.
I learned from him that
every day we have the choice to live fully.
Attitude, after all, is everything.

Get out from the slavery of debt!
Invoke the law of sacrifice:
"You have to give up something, in order to get something."
Rephrased: You May Need to Give up Something :)
Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire.
If you did, what would there be to look forward to?
Be thankful when you don't know everything,
for it gives you the opportunity to learn.
Be thankful for the difficult times,
during those times you learn and grow.
Be thankful for your limitations,
because they give you opportunities for improvement.
Be thankful for each new challenge
because it will build your strength and character.
Be thankful for your mistakes,
they will teach you valuable lessons.
Be thankful when you're tired and weary at the end of the
day, because it means you've made a difference.
Investors Business Daily compiled a list of 10 traits they've
found among
the most succesful leaders and people in life that enabled
them to turn
their dreams into reality:
1. How you think is everything: Always be positive. Think success,
not failure. Beware of a negative environment.
2. Decide upon your true dreams and goals: Write down
your specific
goals and develop a plan to reach them.
3. Take action: Goals are nothing without action. Don't be
afraid to
get started now. Just do it.
4. Never stop learning: Go back to school or read books. Get
training
and acquire skills.
5. Be persistent and work hard: Success is a marathon,
not a sprint.
Never give up.
6. Learn to analyze details: Get all the facts, all the
input. Learn
from your mistakes.
7. Focus your time and money: Don't let other people or things distract you.
8. Don't be afraid to innovate: Be different. Following the
herd is a
sure way to mediocrity.
9. Deal and communicate with people effectively: No person
is an
island. Learn to understand and motivate others.
10. Be honest and dependable: Take responsibility.
