Success Is A Choice

There are no age limits on when you can transform your life. Change is possible at any time. It is essential if you want to grow. You have control over your life. Success or failure is up to you. “Many live their life likea candle in the wind Never fading with the sunset but When the rain sets in…”. The truth is do you wish to live your life that way or change it with a positive ideology – “no matter what comes my way, I’m going all the way?” It’s a matter of choice – a product of your decision.

You control how lucky you are. You create your wealth with your effort. The doubts you'll experience along the way are part of life. Make a plan to attain your success and stick to it. Your life is a marathon, not a short sprint.

Accept total responsibility for your actions and remove "QUIT" from your vocabulary. Decide you want success and it can be yours. Success is always your choice.

The Real Me

I am an introvert artist
That carries his brush wherever he goes
Should there be a need to cover up
So the real me never shows

I’m always afraid to let it show
Because I’m scared what you might do
Friends had derided and said mean things
I’m afraid I might loose new friends and also you

I will for once paint a true picture
To show you alone the real true me
But I want you to try and understand
I need you to accept everything you see

So if you’ll be patient and close your eyes
I’ll take my time to paint it steady and slow
Please understand how much it hurts
For me to let the real me show

Now that I have painted myself uncovered
I feel naked, bare and cold
And if you still love me with all that you’ve seen
Then you are my friend pure as gold

I shall treasure this little picture of mine
Though, I hold it daily in my hand
I want to keep it firm and handy
In case I meet many that would understand

So please protect the image you’ve seen
And thanks for telling me true
But please let me keep this image
Until I am able to love myself too

Freedom! Freedom!! Freedom!!!

Many years has passed us by
Yet no sign of a coming liberation
Our burden increase daily
At dusk we dine with affliction

Our fathers’ toiled day in day out
To satisfy the obnoxious task masters
Our mothers kept the chaste line strong
Despite all the promiscuous dangers

Our young and gorgeous daughters
Are used for pleasure and satisfaction
While our young and mighty men of valour
Were mainly used to stop opposition

Babies are abundantly born
In bondage they age and fade away
The strong being made susceptible to the weak
Hopes and dreams die each passing day

Every night with prayers of faith
Wondering when this madness would end
But all we see is Judas among us
Trying daily to be our comfort and friend

Who will remember us
Who will hear our humble cry
In disguise we are benevolence
Sitting idle gazing to the empty sky

WHAT’S THE SIZE OF YOUR HEART?

It isn’t the size of your house
That matters so much at all
It’s the gentle and loving touch
That makes you great or small

Friends old or new come and go
From thy bond would always depart
Would judge it not by the style you show
But rather by the size of your heart

It isn’t the size of your intelligent
It isn’t the wealth you found
That will make you happy at the end
But how well you touched the lives around

For making money is not a hard task
And to live LIFE well is nothing but an art
But how people love you and regard you
Only depends on the size of your heart.

YOUR TRIALS AND SORROWS DEVELOP YOU

Trouble is the common denominator of living. It's the great equalizer of life. Whatever good or bad fortune comes your way, give it meaning and transform it into something of value.

Personal growth is the process of responding positively to change – “Personal growth equates income.” All growth means change and change always involves risks, stepping from the known to the unknown. All of your growth depends on activity. It only comes from continuous effort and struggle.

Life chips and pounds you to bring out your possibilities. She will strip you of wealth, humble your pride, humiliate your ambition, let you down from the ladder of fame, and discipline you in a thousand different ways, if she can develop a little character - everything gives way to that. Remember this “impression management rules the world.”

Wealth is nothing, position is nothing, and fame is nothing. Who you become inside is everything. What happens to you is not as important as how you react to what happens.

IN THE MIDDLE OF DIFFICULTY LIES OPPORTUNITY‏

You cannot have success without dealing with problems. Look for your opportunity in every difficulty instead of being paralyzed at the thought of difficulty in every opportunity. Each new experience brings with it the seed of your success. Even your current difficulties have within them opportunity. Like the Bible tells us that “…even the darkness shall be light to thee”

Welcome your problems as opportunities. Each moment is your greatest challenge and the best thing that ever happened to you; for opportunity seldom comes labeled.

The more difficult your problem, the greater the challenge in working it out. When it's dark enough, you can see the stars.

A FRIEND TO ME

Thank God for you – good friend of my
Seldom is our friendship as that of time
How very much I often wish to be
As helpful as you’ve been to me

When I recall from time to time
How you’ve inspired this heart of mine
I find myself inclined to kneel and pray
That the good Lord should guide you all the way

So often at His throne of grace I stand
Your face I see at his right hand
And then instructively I bow to pray
“God bless my dearest friend today”

Someday, I hope with you I’ll stand
Before His throne – at his right hand
And say to you as my journey comes to end
“Praise God, You’ve been to me a dear friend”

EVERYTHING HAS A PRICE

No one has a corner on success. Success is for everyone – anyone; whosoever that can pay the price for it, success is yours.

There is no easy road to success. You’ve got to work a great deal harder than most people to get it. Like many successful people would say – “do the things today others won’t do in order to have the things tomorrow others won’t have.” Nothing worthwhile will come easily to you. Hard work will accomplish results that last.

No matter what you want from life, you've got to give up something to get it. There is no success at bargain basement prices. You'll find that the highway to success is a toll road. Some say that OPPORTUNITY seldom comes labelled. Its true!

SUCCESS IS A DETERMINED ACTION AWAY

Foolish people with all their other thoughts, have this one too. They are always getting ready to live, but never living. Your success will start when you begin to pursue it. To reach your goal or to attain success, you don't need to know all the answers in advance.
You just need to have a clear idea of what your goal is.

Don't procrastinate when faced with difficult problems. Break your problems into parts, and handle one part at a time – “one day at a time”.

Develop tendencies toward taking action. You can make something happen right now. Divide your big plan into small steps and take that first step right away, everyone who got where they are had to begin where they were. Your big opportunity is where you are right now.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. Take it.

Things We Miss

You ran through your entire years
Not stopping to enjoy each passing day
And you took every guy you met for granted
As you traveled your primitive way

As you faced pain and ardent sorrow
Something inside pulled you through
That something was private and special
Sent from heaven for such a one as you

You never stopped to measure
The good tidings you carelessly miss
And since the world never did slowed down
You always miss the good night kiss

And now your tender heart seems heavy
Filled with regrets and a great deal of pain
No one dares to console you
But I say – remember this once again

Remember those you took for granted
Because they were too young to be called thine
And the precious moments you never started
Were the tender and lovely kisses of mine,
