Last Wishes

This story is found in many sites in the internet and
I would like to share with you for the message behind it.

Alexander, after conquering many kingdoms, was returning home.
On the way, he fell ill and it took him to his death bed.
With death staring him in his face, Alexander realized how his conquests,
his great army, his sharp sword and all his wealth were of no consequence.

He now longed to reach home to see his mother’s face and bid her his last adieu.
But, he had to accept the fact that his sinking health would not permit him
to reach his distant homeland.

So, the mighty conqueror lay prostrate and pale, helplessly waiting to breathe his last.
He called his generals and said, “I will depart from this world soon, I have three wishes,
please carry them out without fail.”

With tears flowing down their cheeks, the generals agreed to abide by their king’s last wishes.

1) “My first desire is that”, said Alexander, “My physicians alone must” carry my coffin.”

2) After a pause, he continued, “Secondly, I desire that when my coffin is being
carried to the grave, the path leading to the graveyard be strewn with gold,
silver and precious stones which I have collected in my treasury”.

3) The king felt exhausted after saying this.
He took a minute’s rest and continued. “My third and last wish is that both my hands
be kept dangling out of my coffin”.

The people who had gathered there wondered at the king’s strange wishes.
But no one dared bring the question to their lips..
Alexander’s favorite general kissed his hand and pressed them to his heart.

“O king, we assure you that all your wishes will be fulfilled.
But tell us why do you make such strange wishes?”

At this Alexander took a deep breath and said:

“I would like the world to know of the three lessons I have just learnt.

Lessons to be learnt from last 3 wishes of King Alexander…

I want my physicians to carry my coffin because people should realize that
no doctor on this earth can really cure any body.
They are powerless and cannot save a person from the clutches of death.

So let not people take life for granted.

The second wish of strewing gold, silver and other riches on the path
to the graveyard is to tell People that not even a fraction of gold will come with me.
I spent all my life Greed of Power, earning riches but cannot take anything with me.

Let people realize that it is a sheer waste of time to chase wealth.

And about my third wish of having my hands dangling out of the coffin,
I wish people to know that I came empty handed into this world and
empty handed I go out of this world”.

With these words, the king closed his eyes.

Soon he let death conquer him and breathed his last. . . .

Remember, how you live your life is in your own hands.
Treasure it and live your best life.

Wealth is only meaningful if it helps you achieve a certain goal
and make a difference to more people.
Use it to make a difference and also enjoy what it can bring to you and
your loved ones.

Touch lives and make a difference.
Leave a Legacy.

3 Tips to Get the Personality Trait That ALL Massively Successful People Have

Here's a question for you, dear friend: Why do so many people in the world NOT achieve their goals in life?

Right now, you might be feeling a little “stuck” in your life. You have big goals for yourself, but they're getting harder and harder to reach. It's like you're in an endless loop of mediocrity and disappointment, year after year.

In the meantime, you see other people living the time of their lives: Getting promotions, taking wonderful vacations, getting into beautiful relationships, and so on... while you're stuck with an ordinary, uninteresting life.

What do these happy, successful people have... that so many of us don't?

Here it is: The reason why so many people live their entire lives without ever achieving their dreams is because they lack the confidence to pursue them.

They have goals, but they don't want them badly enough. It's like they want them, but they're too scared to take the first step.

And that's why they stay where they are, and they think it's okay.

Well, news flash: It's NOT okay!

Here's the cold, hard fact:

If You Don't Develop Self-Confidence,
This Year Will Be The Same As Last Year!

Did you know that there's only ONE personality trait that separates you from all the massively successful people in the world?

Self-confidence is life's great equalizer. It's the one personality trait that ALL massively successful people have.

Did you know that EVEN IF you don’t feel confident today you can actually change that quickly and easily?

Successful people weren't self-confident in the beginning. Many of them started poor, uneducated, jobless, and painfully shy.

They simply did three things that most other people didn't – and these three things helped them develop the self-confidence they needed to break free from pain and poverty, and achieve massive success in all areas of their lives.

Did you know that you can develop the kind of self-confidence that will help you have, be, and do absolutely ANYTHING you want in the world?

It’s true, not only is self-confidence attainable, it’s within your grasp and I have 3 tips to share with you to start that simple transformation today…

Success Tip #1: Face Rejection Head-On

The #1 reason why average people fail is this: They're too scared of rejection. They're afraid of failing. They're afraid of feeling sorry for themselves. They're afraid of getting disappointed.  So they don't take the first step at all. Read this carefully: Even if the risk you're about to take only has a 10% chance of success, it's still worth taking. Because when you don't try at all, that's a 100% guarantee of failure! Don't guarantee a life of failure for yourself. Take risks! Sometimes, you win... and other times, you learn. That's how massively successful people keep getting better and better. Instead, face rejection head-on. Know that rejection is like stones in a stream, it’s there to help guide you, teach you and show you the actual path to success. It's a natural part of life, and is actually unavoidable.  So welcome it with your arms wide open because the faster you get used to it, the sooner you'll experience the success you've always wanted! Success Tip #2: Put Your Opinion First Do you worry about what other people think about you? You are not alone, it happens to all of us, the trap of other’s opinions. Here's the thing: If you're worried about what your family, friends, and even strangers will think when they see you doing something different... then it simply means you're valuing their opinions more than your own. And that's crazy! They don't know what you've been through. They don't know what you're going through inside. And they don't know what you want to achieve with your life. So why in the world should they tell you what to do? Read this carefully:  “Opinions are like armpits. Everyone has them and most of them stink!” Successful people aren't successful because they followed other people's opinions. Instead, they became successful because they valued their own opinions over everyone else's. They were their own #1 fans! They had a BIG GOAL, and they didn't give a hoot what other people thought about it. They just went ahead, worked their butts off, and got what they wanted! So what should you do when someone tells you their opinions about your life and your goals? By all means, listen to their opinions. Consider their advice and thank them for their concern. But at the end of the day, be your own #1 fan and follow your own opinion! Got it? Good. You’re ready for Tip #3.. Success Tip #3: Develop Unshakeable Belief What do you do when you hit a wall in your life? You know that feeling, like you’re stuck and there’s no place to go. Average people stare at the wall, complain about the wall, or turn around and walk away from the wall. Massively successful people break through it like a wrecking ball. Nothing stands in their way for long! That's the third element of building self-confidence: Unshakeable resolve and fearlessness. It's an attitude that says, “Bring it on!” Massively successful people know that the road to success in life is tough. But they also know that they're tougher. They know that they can do absolutely anything if they try hard enough. And that's what you need to do. You might feel afraid, or timid, or even weak right now and that’s okay. You have an amazing opportunity, right here, in this moment. You can choose to believe in yourself and literally change your ‘personal success’ course. You can write your own future with a new feeling of hope, knowing that YOU can do things that you previously thought were impossible, not because of anyone else, not because of some ‘magic pill’, but because of the power you have within. That power to really see yourself as you are, with limitless possibilities surrounding you. If you want to join a short on line course for Self Confidence Creation contact blogger.

POSITIVE THINKING

The Mind and Health

Posted on May 23, 2014 by Adam Mortimer — 1 Comment ↓

Improve Your Health through Positive Thinking

Your mother probably repeatedly told you to “think good thoughts,” especially if something was troubling you or if you had a bad day.  The power of positive thinking does not make problems magically go away, but it can help you reduce stress and maintain a positive outlook on life, which is a good stress management tool.  By helping to manage stress, positive thinking has many health benefits.

The Benefits of Positive Thinking

Although scientists keep exploring how the power of positive thinking produces health benefits, it is unclear exactly why it does.  Some of the benefits gained from positivity include both medical and mental health benefits.  People who maintain a positive outlook have lower rates of depression and they experience fewer instances of distressful thinking.  People who practice positive thinking are psychologically healthier than people who do not have a happy outlook on life.

Medically, positivity can help to reduce the effects of stress on the body and improve the immune system, helping people to be more resistant to viruses.  Less stress also helps to put less strain on the cardiovascular system by keeping blood pressure levels lower and reduces the risk of death from heart disease or strokes.  Reducing stress can also help to increase a person’s life span.

                                           How to Practice Positive Thinking

While it may seem that some people are naturally more positive than others are, it takes a conscious effort to practice positive thinking.  All too often, people are stuck in a pattern of negative thought and self-talk, which will continue if not consciously stopped.  Be more aware of your thoughts so you can catch the negative ones as they begin to form.  As they do begin to form, you can make an effort turn them around to be more positive.

When you catch yourself starting to have negative thoughts, you can reframe those thoughts so they become positive.  Work to get rid of absolutes when you think negatively.  Using “I never” or “I always” often has negative implications, which you need to change in order to produce more positive thoughts.

It takes courage to recognize when you need to change something about yourself, even if it is something internally like your thoughts.  When you take steps to stop negative thoughts and start thinking more positively, you will find it easier to face your problems and resolve them.  Making a conscious effort to change negative thoughts will help you live happier.

Good Morning and Gratitude to the Universe.

JOURNEY OF YOUR LIFE

As we proceed with our life journey, we try to reflect on

past events of our life then realize that it is as if we are

reading a book- in fact, our own book of life. With such

reflection, we become so glad to be participants of this

life journey. Each day as we wake up, new learnings embrace

us and they assist us to go on with our own personal

development.

Furthermore, we know that there is no limit and boundary

over learnings. It only takes one's commitment to

participate consistently in this journey that will make a

consequent difference in his/her life. One noteworthy in

life is when we share our various giftedness with each

other. As you and me go on with our everyday learnings, we

grow the more when we exchange life's wonderful stories.

Each chapter in our life brings tremendous lessons that when

utilized properly, they will lead us to a further colorful

and fruitful journey. In life, there is no greater love than

offering oneself for the welfare of others. However, as

human as we are, there are self- centered tendencies that we

need to befriedn in ourselves. At times, we tend to be so

focused just on our own nourishment (though I am not saying

completely that it is wrong) that at the end, we become

non-committal to other people's development. To realize such

twists, it then results to self destruction.

On the other hand, allow me to share with you this wonderful quotation, 

" Self-education is, I firmly believe, the only

kind of education there is."- Isaac Asimov. 

I totally agree with Isaac in this sentiment of his. As we enter 

each day, we start to learn new things that contribute colors to this

journey. Many people have joined us in this journey, first

and foremost our considered significant people in our life

like our families, relatives, friends and many kore. Thus,

we should be grateful to them as well as to our Divine

Creator for these gifts.

On the other hand, as we proceed with our varying journeys

called life, may we unceasingly reflect on Isaac's words

above and let us consistently remind ourselves that life's

education allows us to be the best persons that we can be.

As such, you and me can become agents of change and joy for

others. By then, life will become a meaningful gift for all.

To your success-Have a Nice Day

Identify Your Life Purpose

How are you supposed to find your life purpose? 

Sometimes this does not mean your job that you do everyday, your responsibilities and your long-term goals.  This can mean the real reason that you are here and the very reason that you exist in life. 

If you believe that you do not have a purpose in life and that you are not looking for a meaning, you do not have to worry about identifying anything.  If you believe that you are looking for something to do in life then you need to work hard at getting your purpose and learning about what it means for you.  This is going to help you be a stronger and more achievable person with anything that you try to do. 

If you want to find the true purpose that you have in life then you need to let go of all the emptiness and false purposes that you hold in your life.  You need to discover what you have in your life and what is most important to you.  There are going to be so many ways that you can do this and all you really have to do is really look at who you are and where you see yourself in the future. 

Here are a few things that you should do when you are looking for a purpose in life.

•      You should write down a list of what you believe you are here on earth to do.
  

•       Make sure that you are answering your questions honestly and put what jumps into your head first.  It does not have to be complicated, just what you feel.

•           Continue writing things that you want to do.  When you find the one that makes you emotional and gets your excited, you have found your true purpose in life.

It does not matter what you do in life.  To some it will make no sense at all and to others it will make perfect sense.  As long as you feel good in your decision and what you are doing,then you are following your heart.  This is what your purpose is and what makes most sense to you. You want to make sure that you are taking out all the clutter in your life.  You have to in order to understand what you are truly here to do.

If you are really trying to find your purpose and you are not sure how to make it happen, you might want to try some counselling. This can be the best way to get involved with what is going on in your life and getting all the facts in the open.  You might want to really analyse your life and determine if you are doing something that really makes you happy.

You may have the feeling of resistance at some point in your life.  However you want to go through your feelings and make sure that you are using excuses to get out of the work.  You need to push past it all and keep doing what you want to so that you can live a happier and more successful no matter what you are trying to do.

When it is your time to leave earth, you need to feel as if you accomplished something and your mind will be at ease.  This is what will make life worthwhile and give you great peace of mind.
