Grateful for everything...

People tend to think and concentrate on what they don't have and they say 'Oh, I don't have that, I'm so poor..' but no matter how much they have they always want more and more and more.... So think about it, you might be in the situation when you have some, but you want more because you don't enjoy what you really have. Let me tell you what you have: you have LIFE, you have friends, you have food, you have family, you have clothes, you have TV, you have a HOME, you maybe even have a car, maybe someone you care about, you have a mobile phone, you have internet etc.. Money? you have ten times, maybe a hundred times more money then an AVERAGE PERSON in Africa. What do you say about that? With all the means of communication available you have the chance to speak to almost everyone in this world and make them your friends. Isn't that amazing ? Stop looking at what you don't have be grateful for what you have and all you have to do is to look around you and notice the abundance that surrounds you in every field: social, material, personal, etc. Be grateful for everything and start with the little things...you will see how rich you really are..:)

Competition

      I don't know about you, but I am so keen on competition ! I love to compete in any way possible. I don't hesitate to join every competition which occurs. It can be a sports competition, a business competition, a career competition etc. And it's not about winning or losing, it's about the courage and power to defeat your weakness and give the best of you until you break all your limits. We are an unlimited source of energy and our possibilities are infinite, is just that we are not motivated to use them.  There are 2 situations which  motivate us to break the boundaries of our potential:

1.When our life is in danger and we do things which we never think we could do, in order to save ourselves 

2. In a COMPETITION, where our ego and reputation is on the line

       Of course, there is a risk of taking it too seriously and do things we would regret them later. I don't let myself get carried away and stay on the ground. Actually, I don't even compete against other individuals, I compete against me, because the hardest competitor we can have is ourselves. Compete to get the ultimate of you, and enjoy to be part of a competition, where you show yourself who you truly are.

A dark side...

    Yesterday a person asked me to help him, because he had a serious problem. He was very worried because he had some "scary thoughts"  as he called them, and was afraid that things would go wrong for him. He also told me he didn't understand why those thoughts were always coming back again, from time to time, because he is a good person, and couldn't hurt anybody. His problem was that whenever somebody laughed at him, or annoyed him, he had something in his head that urged him to hurt that person.
     I told him not to worry, because this is a normal thing, everybody feels repulsion towards the people they don't like, one way or another." The difference between you and a bad person is that you don't give up in this fight between you and your 'dark side'. We all have a dark, immoral side which sometimes urges us to do bad,  disgusting things, but we mustn't let it come out and control us, because it would lead to our annihilation, eventually. What we have to do, is to explore our bright side and seek the positive side of life...to more we do this...the more happiness we attract...as for those who insult you, completely ignore them, and remember that they insult you only to draw attention as they feel lonely."
