Intuition Has Been Left on the Back-burner for Too Long!

Even back when Einstein was around intuition was a rare thing to be found in people, especially the scientists and thinkers of the time, and things haven't changed much nowadays either, so it seems. Just to clarify: According to freedictionary.com intuition is - "The act or faculty of knowing or sensing without the use of rational processes; immediate cognition." Now we all know that Einstein was a great supporter...

There's no Time Like the Present

In fact, there's no time but the present! The rest has either happened already or yet to happen so do your utmost to stay grounded in the present moment. Fear of the unknown often causes us to be apprehensive about the future and it leaves a heavy weight upon our shoulders and a shadow across our faces. Regret about the past is much the same and therefore effectively useless to us as it only seems to make us ill...

Sometimes, Envisioning the End Result Helps One Achieve a Goal

Often, when I'm feeling lazy or discouraged about a project, personal or otherwise, I just 'stop' and all progress grinds to a halt. That's when the T.V. remote appears in my hand and a few hours consequently spent watching shows I have already seen. It's a difficult feeling to shake.

An Enthusiastic Approach to Life

Well said, Mr. Emerson. Let me just start with a little analogy here, if you don't mind. "If a purpose or a desire is our wood, then enthusiasm is the fire."  In other words, we can have as many goals and 'wishes' as we can think up AND tell the whole world, but if deep down we don't have real, lasting enthusiasm for those goals, then I'm afraid it will become just another project put on the backburner. How...

Challenges are Inevitable

Such a fine piece of wisdom here. We are all able to overcome the more mundane challenges we are familiar with, such as learning to walk as babies, learning to ride a bike, finding our first job, buying a house etc and I believe this is due to the fact that we see others overcoming these challenges all around us. What happens then is we start seeing them less as challenges and more as 'options' but make no mistake...

Mistakes are Fundamental to the Learning Process

What a great quote this is. We often chide ourselves for making mistakes no matter how big or small they are and although this is understandable, when you consider the kind of world we live in (competitive), I think we are missing the point.

Is it Obstacles or Opportunities for You?

How are You Living Your Life?  When you look closely at life and all its components, from an objective point of view of course, you see that there are two types of people (forgive me for the cliche) inhabiting this earth - those who predominantly see obstacles and those who predominantly see opportunities.   I would say that most people are obstacle perceivers. You only have to look around you...
