Avoid the Trap

When you are in a quest for success, you will not be in an easy road.   T here are many hurdles and barriers that you need to overcome.  Sometimes it is daunting to go through all that but it is part of the test as they call it.  Nothing is easy otherwise everyone can get it.  Only the best and the brightest and those that persevered will ever reach the top. M any of our successful folks would narrate their life stories on how they were faced with so many obstacles, hardships and difficulties.  The path is not easy at all.  Its doable and not impossible as they confidently exclaim.  They proudly proclaim how they did it along the way.  When they almost gave up and caved in to pressure, in the nick of time, just a little bit of patience and endurance, they made it. H owever, we dont normally hear from them about traps.  We hear a lot about things that blocked their way but we never really hear about the times they were tr...

The helpful lady support gave me instructions on how to do it and let me share it with you. Here are the steps: Open y...

Not the What but the Why

D o we really know why we do what we do? I   was listening to an audio book of Jack Canfield about “Success Principles” and he mentioned that people are not really interested with what we do but why we do it.  I’d been listening to his CD’s for quite some time now for it is a 21-hours audio recording of his book “Success Principles” and there are a lot of good stuff in there.  But when he made a comment regarding what people really care about us, it made me think.  Why do we do what we do? T here is always a reason behind every decision that we do in life.  When we choose a course in college or university, a career path that we take, wether we become an employer or an employee, self-employed or an entrepreneur.   I f other people are interested in why we do what we do, why are we not?  Did we really ever consider why we do what we do?  Most likely, we do things almost mindlessly and we get through life and we never really under...
