Simplify...

Ada sesetengah orang tu suka sibuk fikirkan hal orang lain. Tapi diri sendiri di abaikan. Sibuk nak selesaikan masalah orang lain, tapi masalah sendiri tak selesai-selesai atau sengaja taknak selesaikan. Mungkin tak penting agaknya. Kita pula asyik menangis bila orang buat hati kita terluka, tapi bila fikir balik, pernah ke orang tu fikir pasal perasaan kita. Mungkin dia tak peduli pun. Lantak lah kau. Bila kau penat menangis, diamlah. Kesian kita. Ada orang pula, sibuk mencari kesalahan orang lain walaupun sekecil kuman, nampak saja. Itu tak betul, ini tak betul, semua tak betul. Tapi kesalahan diri sendiri yang sebesar gajah pun tak nampak atau saja buat-buat tak nampak. Ialah, kalau nampak sendiri salah, jatuh lah ego. Aku tak pernah salah! Kehidupan ni kadang-kadang takde erti bila kita kehilangan segala-galanya, walaupun masa depan kita masih boleh diubah, tapi kadang-kadang kita rasa hidup kita ni sudah sempurna sangat, lebih-lebih lagi bila kita dah dapat apa yang kita nak.

Relationships - of all kinds - are like sand held in your hands. Held loosely, with an open hand, the sand remains where it is. The minute you close your hand and squeeze tightly to hold on, the sand trickles through your fingers. You may hold on to some of it, but most will be spilled. A relationship is like that. Held loosely with respect and freedom for the other person, it is likely to remain intact. But hold on too tightly, too possessively, the relationship slips away and is lost. Kaleel Jamison (The Nibble Theory)

(Affirmations from Living With Joy, Spiritual Growth and Creating Money twice, the second time using "I" instead of "you" wherever it made sense to me) CLEARING BLOCKAGES I take action on my inner guidance. I make decisions easily. I find winning solutions. I now experience a new level of clarity, well-being and self-confidence. I release any feelings o self-pity and blame. I know I can create any reality I want. I know exactly what to do to create the results I want. I now take charge of my life. LOVING RELATIONSHIPS I am magnetic to love.

I spread love and goodwill wherever I go. I like who I am around other people. I a...

One day a father of a very wealthy family took his son on a trip to the country with the express purpose of showing his son how poor people live. They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of what would be considered a very poor family. On their return from their trip, the father asked his son, "How was the trip?" "It was great, Dad." "Did you see how poor people live?" the father asked. "Oh yeah," said the son. "So, tell me, what did you learn from the trip?" asked the father. The son answered: "I saw that we have one dog and they had four. We have a pool that reaches to the middle of our garden and they have a creek that has no end. We have imported lanterns in our garden and they have the stars at night. Our patio reaches to the front yard and they have the whole horizon. We have a small piece of land to live on and they have fields that go beyond our sight. We have servants who serve us, but they serve others. We buy ou...

How far would you go for Love? Are you so in love that you would change religion for your love one? Some people switch lifestyles, other change nothing. How much should you sacrifice? If you want to make a relationship last, both of you need to clearly understand the nature of the sacrifice. It's about give and take!

A friend told me once, "When you make a decision based on the best available information at that time, your decision will always be right, even if it proven to be wrong later". And that friend also told me about a story of Alice in Wonderland.. When Alice was lost in wonderland and she reached a junction and saw a rabbit nearby, she ask the rabbit which way should she take, and the rabbit ask her "Do you know where you want to go?" and Alice answered, "no". The rabbit replied "does it matter then which way you take"... Life goes on... Every choice has an end result - Letting Go!

I'm taking a time off.. baby please don't let me suffer too long.. Sometimes, good things end. That's just the way life is. Sometimes, bad things continue due to neglect or fear. This ISN'T the way life should be! When should a relationship break up? Simple: when it no longer provides benefit to one or both partners. In other words, if you aren't getting what you want or need from being with someone, or if you recognize that your partner isn't getting what they want or need it's time to move on. Some people say, "Isn't that a little selfish - what about the person you're dumping?" To this, "How can it be good for someone to stay with a person that doesn't want to be with him or her?" After all, how low does your self-esteem (let alone your self-respect) have to be to want to do this? It is by far much healthier to go about finding the relationship that works for you - that gives you what you need, than to apathetically cling t...

As hard as you are working to care for someone else, it is really important to remember that you have needs too. It can be physically and emotionally. It is all too easy to put your own needs at the bottom of the priority list. Allow time for you You cannot do everything, nor should you expect it of yourself—recognize what you can and can't do and set priorities. Allow yourself some leisure time to rest, relax, and be yourself . Stay healthy It is just as important that you look after your own health. Try and avoid letting yourself get run down. Moderate exercise, even just taking a walk, helps your body relax. Put exercising, or at least going out once a week, down on your checklist of things to do. Take a break If you think you need a holiday, you probably do. Take it and realize that you deserve a break.

Attended motivation talk on 28 June 2004 with Mr Raphael Yap What is Motivation ? A desire... A drive What motivate you? Money? Recognition? Job / Self Satisfaction? Responsibility? Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs

Think about yourself. When do you work best? Is it when you feel good about yourself? Or when you don't? I get more done, when I'm feeling good about myself. So, helping people to feel good about themselves is a key to getting more done.

To "let go" does not mean to stop caring, it means I can't do it for someone else. To "let go" is not to cut myself off, it is the realisation I can't control another. To "let go" is to allow learning from natural consequences. To "let go" is to admit powerlessness, which means the outcome is not in my hands. To "let go" is not to try to change or blame another, it is to make the most of myself. To "let go" is not to care for, but to care about. To "let go" is not to fix but to be supportive. To "let go" is not to be protective, it is to permit another to face reality. To "let go" is not to deny, but to accept. To "let go" is not to nag, scold or argue, but instead to search out my own shortcomings and correct them. To "let go" is not to adjust everything to my desires, but to take each day as it comes, and cherish myself in it. To "let go" is not to regret th...
