Stand Firm For Your Values And Integrity!

Never ever compromise on your values and principles that you stand firm. If you believe on something, you must stick to it because that will set you free or reward you at the end. Stand firm on what you believe and value because that is what you must do. It is important to believe in your philosophy, values and integrity. Your integrity will finally win you a great reward that you desire.

Why am I urging people to stand firm on what they believe and value? The reason is very obvious, we win in life only when we stand for something and that which is ethical. Sometimes, a killing doubt may arise so strongly that you may feel like giving up your values and philosophies for immediate results and outcome. But these immediate results that you seek are not permanent and lasting. They fade away as the days go by and similarly you begin to fade away too.

You should never lose your credibility and the respect for what you are and who you are. Remember to keep yourself strong enough to stand firm for what you believe.

Here is an example of what can happen when a doubt in mind arises. My wife applied for a driving license and I suggested her to go directly without the help of any agents because we didn't want to bribe anyone. She agreed and filled the form on her own. She couldn't pass the test at first attempt while others who had failed in the test passed despite failing because they had arranged some ways to clear the test by paying some bribes. Anyway, we didn't pay any money and my decided to appear for the second time.

On the second day of her test, my wife began to doubt whether she would be able to clear the test or not. I assured her that she would be able to pass the test. But there was a strong feeling to give the values and philosophy that we stand for all these years just for the immediate results. We did inquire people who had applied for license through some agents and they charged them some big money. We hesitated to pay them because it was against our values and integrity.

I would say there was a war within our mind. Whether to give up what we stand for and clear the test by paying some amount. There was a temptation because we never wanted to waste our time the whole day. Anyway, we sat down quietly and then closed our eyes to think about it. We realised that we were not firm instead we were shaken up by the crowds who have no integrity and values.

We decided not to give up our values and philosophy. Instead, I encouraged my wife to give the test and to our surprise she passed her driving test. It was a great moment of joy and happiness. We felt better and relaxed because it was a war within us.

The lesson we learned here is that we should never give up what we believe to be true and real. The values and philosophies do come to our rescue and when we stand firm for the truth, we win. We become victorious and gain much confidence. We are strong in our beliefs now and we want to stand firmly for our integrity, credibility and philosophy. You can too stand firm for the truth that you believe and surely it will make you a winner.

You Are Your Own God And Saviour!

In the ancient time people looked up in the sky and waited for Gods to come and save them from natural calamities and dangerous situations. They thought and believed that Gods from above would descend to rescue them from all kinds of evils in the society. It seemed that Gods didn't listen to their prayers and didn't come down to save them from dangers and still people continue to believe in Gods. When Gods didn't come down in chariots to rescue them, they thought Gods were angry and so they performed many ritualistic sacrifices, penance and fasting, yet their Gods wouldn't come to deliver them. Finally people who expected Gods to save them died believing that they would enter into heavens and be with Gods on the right hand side.

This phenomena is still not finished yet. Those who profess their faith in Gods and are the followers of some religions today are still waiting for Gods to descend and deliver them from all kinds of diseases and dangers. Some humans prayed and offered sacrifices so much that they became very religious as a result many people were moved by their godly characteristics and began to take them as Gods from above. Some even called such religious people as sons and daughters of Gods sent from above to deliver the mankind. These people too didn't succeed in delivering people from the evils and died a mortal death. But people were so hungry and thirsty for Gods that they made them alive and believed that their Gods would come again as promised by the scriptures, prophets and sages.

Until now not even a single God has come down from heaven to deliver the mankind from poverty, recession, hyper inflation, deflation, unemployment, sickness, injustice, wars and death. If there were Gods according to the understanding of believers, Gods would have certainly descended to redeem people from bondage and sufferings. Why do people think that Gods are up above the sky and He/She will descend in chariots to save the world?

Gods can never save and deliver people because they are very busy creating the multi-universes. Today you are your own God and saviour so you must save and protect yourself from all kinds of dangers. Don't ever expect that Gods from above will deliver you from lions' dens. It is a wrong perception that has misled people to believe in Gods which no longer exist in a way that majority of humans know and understand.

I am sure, even the governments are not gods who can't deliver us from depression, recession, hyper inflation, deflation and bad economy. The big institutes like Banks, FED, IMF, World Bank, NASA, UN and many other organizations too won't come to your rescue when depression or recession strikes you. The recession has hit people all over the world since 2007 and now 2011 is coming soon. The economic condition will not improve so quickly as people think because there is nobody out there to take into account the ordinary citizens of the world. The governments or banks won't deliver us because they are too not gods but they act like gods here on earth and the ignorant people believe them to be their saviours.

The real and true God is you the individual being. You have everything you need to keep things under control for your future. You possess the talents, skills, expertise and knowledge to deliver yourself from great depression, recession, inflation, deflation and injustice. Believe that you are truly the living messiah and there is no another one. As long as you consider others to be your Gods, then you will not be saved and redeemed. You will be cursed and crushed to death.

Ignorant people have gods up in the sky, but you should never have gods in the form of governments and banks because they haven't succeeded in rescuing people from great inflation that we have today. As you know, four years have passed since the recession has hit the global economy and people are suffering because they have no jobs and no money to take care of themselves. How can you leave your future in others' hands? Be your own saviour and deliver yourself from the evils of modern banking and government systems. The best way to be your own saviour to educate yourself about financial matter. Learn to play with the new rules of money and it can deliver you from all evil.

Is Your Life Meaningful?

"Believe that life is worth living and your belief will help create the fact." William James

Daily human experiences at times suggest that our life is useless and meaningless. Thousands upon thousands of people have felt and commented bad about themselves. Life is not meaningless. Your life is not useless. Your life has a purpose, a goal and a mission to accomplish if you realize that you are special and your life is meaningful.

The other day my close friend Ravi shared some nice insights about life. He said that he used to see his life as meaningless. He even thought of committing suicide and getting rid of his life because he didn't find any meaning in life. There was no clear idea what he should do or use his life for. Then he came to a big realization that his life was meaningless because he was doing what he really didn't want to do. His life seemed meaningless to him because he was not doing anything different. In other words, if you find your life to be meaningless, it is only because you are doing meaningless tasks and nothing more than that. Life becomes meaningless if you do what you don't want to do yet you happen to do it. The best thing is to avoid doing what you don't want and do what you do want. This way you can find your life to be meaningful and useful.

Life is meaningful if you do what you want to do. If you do what you want to accomplish, you can be sure that life will be interesting and useful for you. There are many people who find their lives meaningless for reason they fail to do what they are supposed to do. Do you find yourself less interested and useful to contribute something to the society? You must never consider your life meaningless. Walk with your head straight and up so that you can be sure there will be some goodness and happiness.

My best friend realized that he was doing wrong things and that made him to feel life meaningless. He was not focused and disciplined. But once he learned a valuable lesson, he considers his life has a great meaning and worth living. You can be sure to find your life meaningful in this world though your present situation may not prove to be promising and encouraging. Just keep in mind that life seems meaningless when we do meaningless things while life appears to be meaningful when we follow meaningful activities.

This is where the personal passion, niche and interest come to once rescue. You can learn to find meanings in small things no matter what you do corresponds to what you really desire. Do meaningful things and you will see your life to be meaningful and shining.

What Is Wrong With Humans?

When I think about how the world has turned out to be today and how it will be in the future, one big question really keeps coming to my mind over and over again is this: is there anything wrong with people today? What is wrong with people? Why have we failed to design and create a system that cares for the earth and its creatures? The earth is injured crying for help and asking people to be merciful and kind. Why don't we listen to and do something about it? In my opinion, there is something wrong with us. Let's see how.

The earth is being abused and exploited massively beyond its capacity to sustain life on this earth that within a short span of time we will be facing extinction of all species on this earth. During the industrial revolution, in 17th, 18th and 19th centuries, the industrialists extracted resources from the earth so much in order to make a huge margin of profit that they degraded and destroyed the environment to the brink of non-existence. They didn't bother to show some modesty in their drives to extract the resources and throw the industrial wastes in the nature causing air, water and land pollution. This process is continuing at accelerated speed. It is good to make huge profits but if there is any profit, we are paying the price and the price is very high- human and animal extinction.

The industries, companies and governments of the world are behaving in a strange way with the earth's resources. The governments are supporting the industries and companies to extract resources and finish off everything just to make a big profit. Today governments of the world are not big, they have shrunk as a result they have to obey what the big corporations demand and dictate. How can we the citizens of the world allow the irresponsible people to exploit and abuse the resources so badly that hardly there will be any resources left for our future children? Where will our children go and live with their families if we exploit and use them all now?

The trees are being cut everyday in thousands just to make profits and live a luxurious life at somebody's expenses. The water which belongs to everyone is rationed and bottled in order to tap the potentiality of making huge profits. Oil is extracted from the nature and used for multi-purpose causing a lot of pollution in the air, land and water as a result we are suffering from various diseases which we don't know. We know those diseases only when we get sick and have to pay the medical bills. It is very strange why people have to design this way and follow even in this 21st century?

We have the linear system of extraction, production, distribution, consumption and dumping but this linear system has destroyed our nature and ecology so much that we can see it and feel every day. Why not adopt and design some sustainable, green, zero waste and reliable system to allow life to exist on this earth? It is possible to create and make a system which can cater to all people in the world.

The recent recession has brought a disaster for people. It has killed people, left people jobless, hungry and broke. How can a system that is not supporting people to survive and live be protected and continued even in this century? It has become obsolete and we must never take that as a foundation to draw a future course of existence on earth. We got to be more constructive, sustainable, wise and innovative in using our resources for years to come.

The earth is crying for help because it is suffering. Let's do something and contribute whatever we have to save our planet earth from those industrialists, profit mongers and the governments who protect and promote them by making laws and rules. We must be able to create a world, which no king or queen or president had ever thought of.

The earth is filled with toxins, chemicals, diseases and myopic people who are thinking and acting small and short. They should not be allowed to destroy our earth. We must save our earth from those few humans who are putting all of us into extinction. I think they should be responsible humans to apologize and correct their ways to save the earth for all to live, move and multiply.

If human beings were good and right in their behaviours and actions, they would have protected the earth from the brink of destruction. We should take the step now before it is too late to act and do something. Something is always wrong with people over the years. People have killed, maimed, kidnapped, tortured and destroyed the human civilization and the nature. So obviously it proves that there is something wrong with people. Mahatma Gandhi, wouldn't have approved people destroying the earth at an accelerating speed. Let's stand together and save the earth. Find some solutions for there are solutions to save the earth.

Innovate Your Existing Relationship!

Being in a relationship with your partner, wife, husband, children, parents, friends, neighbours and citizens from other countries requires a constant innovation and creation. It demands one to be creative and innovative if you desire strongly to make the best of your association. It is good to teach oneself how to innovate the existing relationship and friendship with people who we connect.

The modern civilization has moved to a new phase of human evolutionary process in terms of social connection. We are no longer bound by the traditional teachings, beliefs and philosophies about relationship. Many people denounce having one partner in their life time and seek a separation from a wife or husband if any obstacles arise. They want to be free and independent as they don't want to be intense in their relationship because of some differences in values and beliefs that arise. It is a new trend that has caught the world red handed and many people feel that they should explore this independence and new development.

I am not against the independence and freedom or nice feeling that comes while seeking separation from one's spouse or a partner. There are benefits involved in it but it causes a lot of pain and stress to go through. I have read and seen people who have walked away from their partners or wife and husband but it is a cumbersome process. I am not here to discuss about the separation process or the separation. I want to emphasize how people can be creative and innovative in order to maintain their existing relationship.

People walk away from their existing relationship for good reasons and bad reasons but there are enough reasons. In my opinion, married couples should try to innovate ways to continue their existing relationship and make the best of it. The last option shouldn't be the separation but the innovation and discovery.

The trees shed their old leaves and wear new and fresh leaves every year and you can see how beautiful they look. The trees are the same, but they bring some newness to themselves and that makes them look beautiful and attractive. This creative nature enables the tree to maintain its existence for a long time. I wonder why can't married men and women do some kind of innovation in their relationship every year or every time to sharpen their romance and love?

It is possible to innovate and create new areas of interests and hobbies. If couples can sit together and work on their old habits and beliefs they can easily change and transform their lifestyle for better. I think people must not consider separation as quickly as their thoughts. They should explore as many options as they can to solve their differences.

Live your life to the full with your existing partner by innovating ways to sparkle your relationship and every bit of romance. Add some creativity and patience to look into the other person and share a good life.

Try Not To Neglect Your Health!

"Every human being is the author of his own health or disease." Buddha

Keeping a good health all the time is very important today. We should never take for granted or never compromise our health. In other words never ever neglect your health. A good health provides many things and many ways it can support you to enjoy your life. So decide today never to neglect your health.

Yesterday, I happened to eat stale foods without my knowledge and it caused me a great deal of suffering and pain. I had a severe loose tool, which lasted for two days and nights. I couldn't control my motion and there was no immediate relief from any medicines. I found out that medicines are just temporary and they don't really cure the disease. They only facilitate one to feel better for some time. Being healthy and fit is the need of the hour. So please don't ever neglect your health. Eat wisely with your brain and check whether what you are about to consume are good, healthy and fresh.

When you don't have a good health, no dreams, goals or desires seem possible. When you fall sick, things seem very difficult and impossible. A bad health comes on your way to achieving and pursuing your goals and dreams so try as much as you can to stay healthy. Try to avoid eating the fast food, junk food, pizzas, or hamburgers. They are not really suitable for living a healthy life.

I fell sick yesterday and it took away my activities, time, energy and interrupted my entire schedules. I was left disappointed for having failed to do something. I even couldn't write my blogs and it was painful for me. Anyway, I have recovered now and feel better so I hope to continue my blogging everyday. It is my interest to blog on a daily basis. Yesterday, I could not write my blog.

Falling sick once in a while is good and important because it is a feedback to one's lifestyle. Sometimes we don't learn any lessons when we are in good health. We learn better things about life, only when we fall sick or something bad happens. We begin to think over it and make some course corrections. This is how I take my sudden sickness. It is not a big deal but important for me to correct my habits of eating outside. Be watchful what you eat and eat wisely.

With a good health, you can accomplish any goals, any dreams and climb any heights. So preserve your health and maintain a good health. If you keep your health good then you can be sure to enjoy many good things of life. You can move around freely, do your work as you want and spend your time with family and friends.

So I urge all my readers to maintain a good health. NEVER COMPROMISE AND NEVER NEGLECT IT.

Forgive Yourself And Others To Receive Health, Wealth, Happiness and Peace!

“When you hold resentment toward another, you are bound to that person or condition by an emotional link that is stronger than steel. Forgiveness is the only way to dissolve that link and get free.” Catherine Ponder

To forgive yourself and others is not a religious thing. It is an spiritual act and you must consider it to be a tonic for good health, wealth, happiness and peace. Forgiveness is a very powerful tool to let go pent up emotions, grudges, anger, doubts, enmity and other bitter experiences of life. It essential to learn how to forgive people everyday so that there will be an empty space for good things to come in.

Forgiveness is a law and when applied can solve any daunting problems and heal any health issues. People suffer from poverty, lack and misfortune because they hoard within them all the grudge, anger, bitterness and ill-feelings that they encounter sometime or the other in life. You must never store the negative energies because negative energies will drive away all the good things that are on your way.

Learn to empty yourself of all the negative experiences and release them completely by forgiving. You don't need the negative energy to keep you alive. You need the positive energy to provide you all that you desire to have. So there is no goodness in having all that you don't desire to have.

For instance, people suffer from various illnesses because they have within them the negative energies which turn into poisonous toxins and eat up the cells and erode the immune system slowly. People don't know why they are falling sick or why their illness is not getting healed.

When there is no discord in the body, there can be harmony and positive flow of energies and they can create only health, happiness and peace. You must make a separate time, may be half an hour everyday to release your negative toxins from body by forgiving those who hurt you or make you feel unworthy.

Empty yourself as much as you can to welcome the prosperity, abundance, health, wealth, peace and happiness. Foster the positive energies, the positive experiences and the positive thoughts to avoid disease, anger and toxins. Anger, grudges and negative emotions are more powerful destructive tools than allowing love, friendship, peace, understanding and forgiveness to control your life.

Forgive yourself first. Forgive others second but do forgive in order to experience health, wealth, love, happiness and peace. If you don't enjoy a good health, wealth, happiness, love and peace, it is only because you are not releasing the negative energies to go from you. When the room is full and cluttered, nothing new can come in or stay. It is important that you got to release the things that you don't want and welcome the things that you do want.

Keep forgiving every day and you will keep receiving all the good health, wealth, happiness, peace and love. Try this simple principle but hard to do. However if you want to experience good things, you need to release the hard feelings and emotions. Don't ever hold on for a day or two because it will multiply in numbers and become a heavy load to carry. With such a heavy load you will be defeated and dejected in life. So better learn to forgive as much as you can everyday.

You Are The Light!

"Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that." Martin Luther King Jr.

Two thousand years ago, a great spiritual leader Jesus of Nazareth, taught the common people to believe themselves by saying,"You are the light of the world." There is not a slight doubt about it and nobody can ever debate say that it is not true. It is true and we are indeed the light. You are the brightly shining light who cast away all the darkness and unclear path. Believe, you are the light to cast away all darkness and invisibility.

In India, there is a festival called 'Diwali' - a festival of light. It casts away the darkness and shadows that stand as obstacles to good life. I personally like the symbolic meaning of this festival because it is a celebration of light and not darkness. People in India on the occasion of Diwali light their houses and yards with earthen lamps and it signifies a great meaning for those who understand the celebration in true spirit.

Since the age of human civilization, light or fire has played a very significant role in people's life and it is this light which is present in each of us guides, directs and helps people to live a better life. Somewhere on the way, people lost the sense of awareness and didn't believe themselves that they were indeed the light.

You have within you the light that can shine and brighten your future and the path if you really believe that you are the light. Each one must light one's lamp and carry the light to shine so that there won't be darkness spreading all over the world. Today people have forgotten the truth that they are the light who can actually brighten their future. So search for your light and go ahead in illuminating your life and the life of others.

Recognize your light and use your light to brighten the world, people's lives, your life and your family's life. See the light and not the wrong things. Forgive the errors to welcome the light so that there will be light everywhere. You may not be successful now but you will become soon if you believe you have the light to shine brightly. The sun light penetrates every soul and there is light within you. You don't lack that light or sparkle to make your future bright.

"It's better to light a candle than to curse the darkness." Eleanor Roosevelt

Government's Power Is Shrinking While Private Corporations Increasing!

After the success of Industrial age, the big industry heads no longer wanted the Governments to dictate and make legal laws for the industries to do any kinds of business. The big industries didn't want to comply and regulated with the laws made by the governments so they decided to be agents for law making themselves. The governments are no longer the most powerful organization in the world. They don't have power and authority today that they enjoyed once. The government's power is shrinking while private corporations are increasing. The private corporations control and make the laws for the citizens to comply with.

Think about for a minute, who are invited to board meetings or strategic meetings organized by Governments all over the world? Think also, who are not invited and not included in the discussion forum? Next, take into consideration, who has the final verdict or say? You may think that governments have the power to decide and make laws. It is wrong, the industry heads who are invited to discuss and draw strategic plans, are the ones who have more say and power. The ordinary citizens are not invited to the meeting. The common people know the outcome of meetings through the media channels and you know who owns these media news and channels.

The common people think and still believe that their government is going to save them from recession, inflation and job loss but actually it is not so. The governments all over the world have become puppets in the hands of the few big private organizations. These large organizations are no longer concerned about the welfare of entire humanity. They only mind their own profits and earnings.

The governments all over the world have lost their actual place and they don't know whether to take care of the masses or the few. These government officials have their own families and they want to protect their family members so they are ready to sacrifice the masses for the sake of few of their family members' well-being. It is heartening to know that majority of people are ignorant about the foolishness of the government yet they place their trust in them for protection and solution.

Keeping the environment clean, free from pollution, toxins and other hazardous substances should be their first priority, but the government doesn't form any major laws to disqualify industries that pollute and endanger animals and people's lives. The governments from all over the world come together to discuss about climate change and global warming, but it is only a show and there is nothing deeper there. They don't find any viable alternative ways to solve people's demands though there are some ways.

Today we pay for everything, water, air, oil, goods and the services. The hospitals use gas cylinders for the treatment of the patients and it is charged. We pay for bottled water today because big industries say that the tap water is not fit for drinking. It will not be so long when we will buy oxygen bag and mask for our daily breathing. The pollution rate is very high all over the world that people have diseases like asthma, cancer and other illnesses.

The question arises, if the governments all over the world had power in their hands, they would have certainly found new ways to lead people to live and exist in this 21st century. Why not choose health and wellness over exploiting the earth for resources which cannot sustain all humans for a long time if things continue to accelerate at the present speed, then sure human existence on earth would be a total extinction.

The governments have lost their power by favouring the few over the masses but they go to the masses to beg for votes because they know the few people they profess allegiance to, don't really choose them through ballots. The masses are ignorant and they don't know much and they will never know much because they don't bother about it until one day when things would be too late they will wake up and by then nothing much could be changed and prevented.

Learn To Control Your Emotions!

"A man who is master of himself can end a sorrow as easily as he can invent a pleasure. I don't want to be at the mercy of my emotions. I want to use them, to enjoy them, and to dominate them." Oscar Wilde“

People come under the influence of many kinds of emotions on a daily basis and it is at times very hard to keep them under control. Humans are emotional beings and if they are not matured and educated, they can easily be misled by emotions that don't serve our purpose. It is very important to detach oneself from some negative emotions that control us yet don't serve us well.

Vincent Van Gogh said, "Let's not forget that the little emotions are the great captains of our lives and we obey them without realizing it." Many people are ruled by negative emotions more than the positive emotions of joy, love, peace, health. So why not learn to have those feelings and emotions which you want to express on the daily basis. If you don't do your homework to control and understand your emotions, you can easily lose your control and thus your moods can be influenced negatively.

On a daily basis, you may be encountering many people and different events at odd hours of the day and you will never feel the same all the time. Sometimes, your anger may take hold of you suddenly when others don't agree with your ideas and opinions. You may scream at them and only to feel sorry later for the sudden outburst. There is a way to control your emotion and you can easily respond positively to any events at any point of time.

Steven Covey writes in his book, 'The seven habits of highly effective people' that we should not react to an event negatively rather we should be proactive meaning we should respond positively to any circumstances. In other words, if somebody suddenly cuts in front of you while driving, you don't have to yell or vent your anger, you just need to be cool, calm and happy. Here you have a choice to vent your anger or show a big smile. If you smile at them, that will make a big difference to you and others.

Instead of reacting to criticism, negative remarks and disagreement, you must choose to be proactive. You can choose to be polite, cool and gentle. This way you can control your emotions and lead a happy life always. Carl W. Buechner once said, "They may forget what you said, but they will never forget how you made them feel." This is very important in life because this is what you want to feel and experience in your life.

In order to conclude, I would like to quote here Lakshmi Mittal, a billionaire who said this, "
At the end of the day you have to keep emotions away." Learn to control your emotions that don't serve your purpose and revive those emotions that spur you to positive action. Be proactive and be responsible. Act and don't react to any events abruptly. Take a deep breath and respond politely. Show a sign of maturity.

You Can Overcome Your Low Self-Esteem(Part-3 Concluded)

It is said that people have self-concept about themselves. This self-concept determines every thing a person wants to do in life. Self-concept is a bundle of beliefs about oneself and about every part of life and the world. The self-concept here is the master program and is in your subconscious computer.

You are where you and what you are because of what you believe yourself to be on the daily basis. Whether you are rich or poor, fat or thin, healthy or sick, successful or unsuccessful, your beliefs, the self-concept control your life. It is very clear, your outer world is an expression of your inner world. If you want to change, you must work on your self-concept and make a correction there.

You should never allow your poor self-esteem to control your inner mind and if it controls your subconscious computer then you are sure to feel low and have low esteem through out your lifetime. However you can easily come out of this problem if you change your inner beliefs about yourself and be open to have a positive attitude about it.

Self-concept is made up of three parts and number one is Self-Ideal. Self-ideal means the vision you have for life, the picture and images that you hold about yourself to be in the real world. If you form an ideal self and you want to be that you can be because it is internal thing. It seems that people who overcome low-esteem, have very clear self-ideal. While those who are struggling and unsuccessful have unclear ideals in most cases.

The second part is the self-image. It is the way you see yourself, and the way you think about yourself as you live your daily life. It is the inner mirror and shows you what you are. Make an effort to change it deliberately. Think about yourself as the most competent, talented and efficient individual to achieve your goals. If you behave consistently according to the picture that you hold of yourself on the inside you can feel, talk, walk, think and achieve better things in life.

The third part is self-esteem. Your self-esteem is how you feel about yourself. It is the emotional aspect of your personality and it is the key to happiness, success and wealth. It gives energy, enthusiasm, vitality, optimism and power to make you a high performing and high-achieving man or woman.

How valuable and worthwhile you feel about yourself, how much you like and accept yourself as a good person, talented person will determine your outside success. Remember you got to believe yourself, accept yourself, love yourself, see yourself as a victor and value yourself to be, do, have and enjoy life.
