How to Say YES to NO

Image
How to Say YES to NO This is a post I found written by   Sophie Chiche   and I really thought it was good enough to share with you her article.. I can’t help you move this weekend- I’m writing a book. There’s a novel brewing inside you that you are dying to get on paper, but where’s the time?  Maybe you’ve been waiting to take that cooking class because, let’s face it, you’ve just about exhausted every way of doctoring up mac ‘n cheese.  Or maybe you just need a day of relaxation because you’ve pushed yourself to the limit but, alas, no time.  Where is your time going, anyway? Let’s see…work…eat…sleep…help John move…walk Karen’s dog…take Chris to the airport….wait!  With all this time for other people, where’s the YOU time? You’re a good friend.  You’re Mr. Reliable or Miss Always-There.  We get it. But when you’re the one who needs a favor from you, you don’t have the time. So something’s got to give if you want to live a meaningful life. Learning to say NO to others mig

The Small-Scale Approach to Achieving Great Things

    The Small-Scale Approach to Achieving Great Things       Now I have been spending a lot of my free lately reading other people's article's and listening to some video's and planning to read some books too, just to get a better view of how other people think and go about doing stuff, as you can tell from all my blog post's here the last few weeks.  This Article just caught my eye as it came across being right down to saying what it is, because that is also something I like, I hate it when I read something and half way I just don't have a clue what some people talk about, maybe I am lazy hehe who knows, but I like things to be simple, easy to follow and easy understandable! This is why I wanted to share this article of Scott McIntyre of Vivid Ways  He started of by giving quote: “It is better to take many small steps in the right direction than to make a great leap forward only to stumble backward.” - Old Chinese prove

How To Unleash A Powerful Life By Leaving by The Author: Peter G. James Sinclair

Image
Hello my dear friends! I stumbled across Author Peter G James Sinclair's blog and started to read his post on Unleashing a Powerful Life by leaving! and it was so good I just had to share it with all of you! Do take a second to read this and share it with your friends and go see what else this man writes about! To traverse to another land across the oceans we must first leave the shore. This is where the adventure begins, where danger lurks, and where possibility is unveiled. However, if we do not leave we will never arrive. It’s as simple as that. To obtain what is better in life we must often let go of what is less than best. This requires faith, belief, and a dose of gumption that immediately sets you apart from the crowd who is too fearful to ever leave the comfort of the familiar. So here are five ‘leaves’, that I have learnt out of my life’s book, that you might like to consider as you continue to embark on your own personal life journey. 1. Leave Your Comfor

LOOK AT YOURSELF AFTER WATCHING THIS My dear Friends! YOU DO NOT NEED ANYMORE INSPIRATION THAN THIS! I didn't even had to watch the whole video the first time for me to immediately wanting to share this story! If I could meet this man in real life it would be such an mind blowing feeling of Thankfulness! for I couldn't be more ashamed of things I complain about that this man could only dream of and yet he still does everything he sets his mind too! I hope that this story gave you tears or at the very most made you want to close your eyes and give thanks for everything you have! May we all rise up to what has been given to us and keep sharing it with others so that the people who may need it at that very moment get to see what is still valuable in their own lives! Have a most blessed and humble day! From your friend Yolandie Olech

How to live your best year ever! by SUCCESS Magazine

Image
This is a pretty cool video that gets you thinking in the right direction. It kinda makes you sit down and look back on what you done last year and how you want to change that for the so much better the year that comes! Now a lot of people make a new years revelation, "starting 1st of January I'm going to do this or going to change that", we don't realize that we don't have to wait for something like the beginning of a year or the beginning of the month or even the next week, its all about realizing that you can change something right now! Like for example, girls like to think that they want to loose some pounds and tend to say "hey this Monday I am starting that diet" ..and to be honest I've lost count how many times I did that and never happened.. we also do the exercising and keeping healthy by going out for a run or visiting the gym in the exact same matter! My friends let me tell you a secret I have come to tried and tested! fr

Moving Windmills: The William Kamkwamba Story

Image
Hey my friends! When I first saw the title of this video I wasn't all that eager to watch it, but I am so glad I did. It show me that with the right determination and mindset of Wanting to do something you can accomplish Great things! How often we tend to give up on something new we started or even before we start, even just the thoughts make us think, nah, that could never work! I wonder how many times I have done that and could've succeeded if I just didn't care what others might think or how others might do it, or even the thought that I am not good enough! That is way I found William's story so inspiring! He went for his thoughts and he didn't care what others might think... lol before i tell all listen to this and reply if you agree :) I hope that more of the strong will that William Kamakwamba has will enter our lives too and make us do great things in the future with! Have a great day and lots of success ! Yolandie Olech

15 Surprising Facts About the Self Help Industry   Hey My Friends all over the world..   Whether you're studying to become a social worker, nutritionist or psychologist, or if you're just stressed to the max yourself and looking for motivation from a supposed professional, you might be tempted to get sucked into the ever-booming self-help industry. And while there are lots of legitimate, caring experts who've developed sensible, effective plans for their clients, there are some surprising things about the industry you may not have realized. Here are 15 facts about the marketing strategies, profits and success of the industry.   Women are the new target audience : All right, maybe this little fact isn't totally surprising. But the intensity with which the industry prowls for female consumers — and virtually ignores male consumers — is still remarkable. If you count prophets like Oprah as major promoters of the self-help industry — and you should — many American women
