HAPPINESS
Do unto others as you would have done unto you. In fact, if you want to be happy, make others happy.
Yes! It works like magic, because nobody is as happy as someone who dedicates himself to making others happy.

DIRECTION
There are times in life that you might wonder which path to take. There are career choices. There are relationship choices. Sometimes there are choices related to safety.
There are many reasons why you might want to consider carefully your option, but there is one element that should be part of all options– your happiness. That is because whatever path you choose, you get to bring happiness along. Happiness comes from within, so you mustnever abandon happiness, for that is when it will abandon you.
But so long as you hold fast to happiness, it will hold fast to you…whatever path you choose.

Idea
IDEA
An idea is a seed. A good idea is a good seed. But a good idea, like a good seed is really nothing more than a good idea.
Until you plant it in fertile ground.
Until you water it and provide it nourishment.
Until you remove the weeds and tend it its progress.
Maybe you have a good idea; isn’t it about time you planted your seed?

ANGER
“Your temper might get you into trouble, but it is your pride that will keep you there.”
This quote from an unknown source got me thinking how even anger does not spoil one’s enjoyment of a generally good-natured person. It is not the moment of anger but one’s ongoing nature that might stand between him and the rest of the world.
Let go of anger as soon as possible and make sure everyone knows that you are ready to be a friend.

Patience
PATIENCE
What does it mean to be impatient? I means to be waiting in a hurry. Really, nothing moves any faster when we are impatient. We still wait just as long. We just do so in a hurry.
Since it is never fun to be in a rush, isn’t it better to relax if we are stuck waiting?
Easier said than done?
Next time you are stuck waiting, ask yourself whether you really feel like being impatient.

Attitude
ATTITUDE
There was a man celebrating his 100th birthday, quite an accomplishment. He was asked a lot of questions by the local media, about his health, about things he had seen and done, about his mobility. He was asked if he was able to get around and walk very well these days. “I can walk a lot better today than I could 100 years ago,” was his reply.
It’s all about attitude.

Success
SUCCESS
Do you know what is the one secret of success?
Don’t give up.
It is only when you give up that you fail. Everything else, as long as you don’t give up, is just a temporary set back on your way to success. There is no antidote for giving up; that is the only failure in life.

Fire
FIRE
In our fire pit, we never count on the fire to light itself. We always have to light it.But it in your heart and in your soul, there are fires that can start by themselves, if you just let them.
Fires of enthusiasm.
Fires of creativity.
Fires of joy.
Fires of generosity.
Fires of compassion.
Fires of determination.
Fires it up!
