A lack of motivation. Success comes from loving what you do. Is your current job your passion? When your study highly successful people, you understand that they have at least 1 thing in common: they love what they do and they do what they love. Is this the case for you? If the answer is no, you can start by identifying your passion. This is the best way to get motivated.
A lack of faith. Faith is a firm belief in yourself, God or others that you can do it. Build up a strong vision of what you want to accomplish. In developing a vision, the law of attraction is going to work for you. You are going to attract people, opportunities and money that will allow you to develop an unstoppable confidence.
The fear of failure. The fear of failure doesn't exist. Neither does the fear of success. Fear stands for False Evidence Appearing Real. Micheal Jordan said himself that "Fear is an illusion". It is hard to overcome fears. One simple way to overcome the fear of failure is to read inspirational stories and quotes of people that achieved their dreams. Read one every morning. That will give you strength and hope.
The wrong strategies. When you want to build a business, to achieve something really big, you need to have mentors. You can't allow yourself to loose time, money and energy. Mentors are people that will give you the right strategies; they will provide the right information and will inspire you. They will coach you through the process. Choose correctly your experts, your models. Work with them and adopt the same thinking patterns, the same strategies, the same beliefs. If he did it, you can do it too.
Limiting beliefs. Often times we have limiting beliefs about what we want to achieve. For example, you can really want to achieve a goal but at the same time something tells you: "It's not for you, you don't deserve that" or "You can't do it, remember". These thoughts pollute our minds and darken our life. A quick way to stop these damaging thoughts is to use the power to say no! First, represent in your mind the "limiting belief" and say NO! To it. Now, represent in your mind what you want in its place and say a big YES! You will be amazed how your attitude suddenly changed about the old belief.

If you did, what would there be to look forward to?
Be thankful when you don't know something
For it gives you the opportunity to learn.
Be thankful for the beautiful times,
During those times you grow.
Be thankful for your limitations,
They give you opportunities for improvement.
Be thankful for each new challenge,
Because it will build your strength and character.
Be thankful for your mistakes,
They will teach you valuable lessons.
Be thankful when you're tired and weary,
Because it means you've made an effort.
It's easy to be thankful for the good things.
A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who
are also thankful for the setbacks.
Gratitude can turn a negative into positive,
Find a way to be thankful to your troubles,
and they can become your blessings.
Well friends these are not my own words i received this in a mail and i really liked it and beleive in it so i am sharing it here with you all as well, hope you all gonna like it too.

Positive thinking is one of the main key for a successful, happy, healthy life. People who are positive and live thier life 'in the moment' are really lucky. So if you can stop worrying about what you've done in the past,and stop worrying about how your actions will affect your future...then you will open yourself up to all sorts of positive events and people that the 'new' you will encounter.Everyone has to worry...but you must try only to worry about what you (and only you) have direct control over.Worry about anything else outside of that...and you will probably be worrying about something that may never even happen.
Nobody has the 'perfect life' and everyone has the ability to manage the positives and negatives in their lives. So its in our own hands to not to let the negatives on top of us...otherwise they will just overtake the positives - and we will be constantly miserable as a result.
So always be positive & happy :)

When you are tired and discouraged from fruitless effort, GOD knows how hard you have tried.
When you've cried so long your heart is in anguish, GOD has counted your tears.
If you feel that your life is on hold and time has passed you by, GOD is waiting for you.
When nothing makes sense and you are confused or frustrated, GOD has the answer.
If suddenly your outlook is brighter and you find traces of hope, GOD has whispered to you.
When things are going well and you have much to be thankful for, GOD has blessed you.
When something joyful happens and you are filled with awe, GOD has smiled upon you.
Whenever you feel lonely then do remember, your God is always with you.
No matter whole world misunderstood you, your God understands you.
May this whole world hates you but there is one your God who always love you.
Remember that wherever you are or whatever you are feeling, GOD knows!

There are many other feelings or emotions that are been associated with Love and most of us think that this is love but in actual it is not. For example:
· If you love some one because you think that he or she is really gorgeous ....then it's not love .. it's "Infatuation"
· If you love some one because you think that you shouldn't leave him/her because others think that you shouldn't ... then it's not love.. it's "Compromise"
· If you love some one because you cannot leave him/her thinking that it would hurt his/her feelings .. then it's not love .. it's "Charity"
· If you love some one because you share every thing with him/her ... then it's not love... it's "Friendship"
But if we talk of Love than this is something superior and much much more of all these. Love is a feeling that makes life more meaningful. One’s love can be his/her strength, it can be a motivational tool, it can be one’s power, and many more…..
True Love is when you feel the pain of the other person more than him/her even when he/she is stable and you cry for him/her, Love is when you get attracted to other people but stay with him/her without any regrets, and Love is when you are ready to do anything for that person without even thinking for a second. There can be much more that can be added to define true love because we all have different perceptions, experiences and way of thinking but still Love is a feeling that we all need, that we all desire, and it is a feeling that we all owns in any means. Its true “Love is life” so let us all spread Love on this planet, our home Earth :) :)

Life is not consistent & certain, everyone have to face good and bad, happiness and sadness in life. Its also true that happy moments are very few in our lifes in comparison of the sad or traggic ones but if we are strong enough and optimistic than we can handle and face anything in life easily. But sometimes in life we get tired and it becomes really hard to keep ourself positive. I always talk of hopes n positive thinking but me myself sometimes alos get tired and it becomes really hard for me to follow my own rules. We all are aware of what is right and wrong, we all know we should be optimistic and look into the brighter side of anything, etc. etc.... but still we all need to hear this from others and seek for moral support at times in life. I know i repeat many things at my blog known to all of us but still i guess we all need a reminder of it to freshen up all this in our minds. I dnt know to what extend i am successful in it but i am satisfied that atleast i attempt and tried to make myself plus others as well to be positive and hopeful with all the realities and cruel facts of life.
Loads of prayers and best wishes for all my fellows, stay healthy and smiling:) :)
Best regards,
Samrina.

Happiness and sadness both are part of life. Since last few days I m seriously n deeply thinking about the topic and trying to find out the main reason to it. I first evaluated my own self that what makes me happy or sad and on the basis of my experiences till now in life its “EXPECTATIONS” that could be not only but one of the main reasons. Few times back I saw this equation somewhere and now today I understood what it meant for after thinking deeply about it.
HAPPINESS= REALITY – EXPECTATION
This is so very true when our expectations come to reality we are happy but when we don’t get what we expect it really hurts and make us sad n depressed.
So I think it’s better to keep our expectations limited and only and only from God. But still question is there that can we limit our expectations? Is it in our control?

We all human beings have different ways to see and have different perceptions about same thing. Its at our own that whether we see the dark side of the picture or brighter one. Our vision keeps us positive or negative and our vision impacts many other things in our life too.
When a person begins to see all goodness as being the goodness of God, all the beauty that surrounds him as the divine beauty, he begins by worshipping a visible God, and as his heart constantly loves and admires the divine beauty in all that he sees, he begins to see in all that is visible one single vision; all becomes for him the vision of the beauty of God.
His love of beauty increases his capacity to such a degree that great virtues such as tolerance and forgiveness spring naturally from his heart. Even things that people mostly look upon with contempt, he views with tolerance. In nature he sees God, in man he sees His image, and in art and poetry he sees the dance of God. The waves of the sea bring him the message from above, and the swaying of the branches in the breeze seems to him a prayer. For him there is a constant contact with his God.
...'If you wish to know God, you must know yourself.' How little man knows while he is in the intoxication of individualism! He thinks, 'I am a separate being; you are another; there is no connection between you and me, and we all have our own joys and free will.' Did man but know it, his life is dependent not only on the objects and things that keep the body alive, but also on the activity of a thousand minds in a day. ... Who then can say, 'I am an individual, independent and free, I can think as I wish, and I can do what I wish? ...
We are connected with one another. Our lives are tied together, and there is a link in which we can see one current running through all. There are many globes and lamps, and yet one current is running through all..."

My mom only had one eye.I hated her... she was such an embarrassment...She cooked for students & teachers...to support the family. There was this one day during elementary school and my mom came.I was so embarrassed. How could she do this to me?I threw her a hateful look and ran out.
The next day at school..."Your mom only has one eye?!?!"...eeeee said a friend.I wished my mom would just disappear from this world.So I said to my mom, "Mom... Why don't you have the other eye?! If you're only gonna make me a laughing stock, why don't you just die?!!!"
My mom did not respond...I guess I felt a little bad, but at the same time, it felt good to thinkthat I had said what I'd wanted to say all this time... Maybe it was because my mom hadn't punished me, but I didn't think that I had hurt her feelings very badly.
That night...I woke up, and went to the kitchen to get a glass of water.My mom was crying there, so quietly, as if she was afraid that she might wake me.I took a look at her, and then turned away.Because of the thing I had said to her earlier,there was something pinching at me in the corner of my heart.Even so, I hated my mother who was crying out of her one eye. So I told myself that I would grow up and become successful.
Then I studied real hard.I left my mother and went to Singapore to study.
Then, I got married.I bought a house of my own. Then I had kids, too... Now I'm living happily as a successful man.I like it here because it's a place that doesn't remind me of my mom.
This happiness was getting bigger and bigger, when...
What?! Who's this?! It was my mother...Still with her one eye. I felt as if the whole sky was falling apart on me.Even my children ran away, scared of my mom's eye.And I asked her, "Who are you?!" "I don't know you!!!" as if trying to make that real. I screamed at her, "How dare you come to my house and scare my children!"
GET OUT OF HERE! NOW!!!"
And to this, my mother quietly answered, "Oh, I'm so sorry. I may have gotten the wrong address," and she disappeared out of sight.
Thank good ness... She doesn't recognize me. I was quite relieved.I told myself that I wasn't going to care, or think about this for the rest of my life.Then a wave of relief came upon me...
One day, a letter regarding a school reunion came to my house in Singapore.So, lying to my wife that I was going on a business trip, I went. After the reunion, I went down to the old shack,that I used to call a house... Just out of curiosity
There, I found my mother fallen on the cold ground.But I did not shed a single tear. She had a piece of paper in her hand....It was a letter to me.
"My son...I think my life has been long enough now... And... I wont visit Singapore anymore...But would it be too much to ask if I wanted you to come visit me once in a while? I miss you so much..And I was so glad when I heard you were coming for the reunion.But I decided not to go to the school.
For you...And I'm sorry that I only have one eye, and I was an embarrassment for you.
You see, when you were very little, you got into an accident, and lost your eye.As a mom, I couldn't stand watching you having to grow up with only oneeye... So I gave you mine...I was so proud of my son that was seeing a wholenew world for me, in my place, with that eye. I was never upset at you for anything you did..The couple times that you were angry with me.. I thought to myself, 'It's because he loves me..'
My son... Oh, my son... "
This message has a very deep meaning and is passed to remind people of thegoodness they have enjoy was because of others directly or indirectly. Pause a moment and consider your life!Be thankful of what you have today compared to many millions who do notlive their life as you do!

Well according to the definition of ‘Loneliness’ it’s a condition where we can only depend ourselves for any strength or mental nourishment. It is a period when we may be completely alone or, although we are with others, we may feel alienated from them and unable to share our unique experiences with any other person at that at that specific moment.
Feeling lonely sometimes is natural. Humans need to socialize. "We need to have a sense of belonging, we need feedback from others, recognition, and a sense that there are others who care about us, understand us, and that we matter to them." Solitude is not always bad. We have all enjoyed being alone- with nature, or music, or books. It is when we feel depression, boredom, and meaninglessness then we have to act. Prolonged loneliness can become fatal if not dealt with as it can deprive a person of his will to live on.
Well I have placed here my findings and views about the topic and I would like all of you also to add your views about it.
Prayers for all.

When we feel like we are working hard but not getting anywhere it is probably because our priorities are not aligned with our values. To begin identifying your values ask yourself these questions:
Ø What is important to me? Wisdom, freedom, happiness, equality, security, self-respect, romantic love, money, power, comfortable living, fresh air, beauty, controlling others, etc. Rate these values.
Ø Who is important to me?
Ø What or who is most important? Be honest with yourself.
Ø What do I need to do to feel good about myself?
Ø How would you feel if someone you respect knew this was one of your values?
Ø Would you stick by this value?
Ø Is it who you are?
Ø How is this value affecting your life?
Make a list of your 10 top values. Of that 10 choose 4 and of the 4 choose your top two. From this exercise you will see where you need to focus your time and effort.
If tomorrow you knew you could do anything and not fail what would you do? Is there something you are passionate about but are afraid of trying? If you have no idea what your passion is spend some time reflecting on it. To start, write down the types of activities you like to do and the types of activities (hobbies) that make you feel good when you do them. What are your special skills and talents ? Don't be shy ? Usually if it's something we like to do we are probably good at it. What inspires you?
In order to get what you really want you must start by setting goals. Goals fuel your intent and make your desires concrete. Start by writing the goals for this year in area of personal relationships, work, health, finances and spirituality. List five goals in each category (add more categories if you like). Then break them down into monthly and then weekly goals. Focusing on what you intend in your life will bring it to reality. You create your life ? So start now by setting your goals.
Goals are worthless without action. If you have written long-term and short-term goals and prioritized them, you have a plan of action. Just take it one step at a time and do something everyday that takes you closer to where you want to be. Remember however, to live in the present and be thankful for what you have now, enjoying the journey toward your goals
We all have the same amount of time to use in a day. Why do some people a lot done while others do very little? You have complete control of how much time you spend productively and how much you waste. Plan your days and prioritize your time to get the most out of the time you have. Use time-wasters like standing in line or waiting in a doctor's office to catch up on reading or something else that is important to you.
Do what has to be done to get to where you want to go. Whether it is a mundane task or internal work, putting it off gets us nowhere. You are either going forward or falling behind; there is no such thing as standing still. Sometimes when we work on ourselves we stop when we get to a place that we need to change. Change can be difficult when we have to step out of our comfort zone. The more change is needed the more difficult it is.
Self-discipline is the final step that takes all that we have learned and puts it into action. This is a trait that for most of us has to be developed. To reach our goals we must visualize them as already being accomplished and have faith that we can reach them. When you believe in and trust yourself and have enough desire, self-discipline comes easily.

- Did you know that when you envy someone, it's because you really like that person?
- Did you know that those who appear to be very strong in heart, are real weak and most susceptible?
- Did you know that those who spend their time protecting others are the ones that really need some one to protect them?
- Did you know that people who occupy themselves by keeping others company or helping others are the ones that actually need your company and help?
- Did you know that when you help someone, the help is returned in two folds?
- Did you know that those who need more of you are those that don't mention it to you?
- Did you know that it's easier to say what you feel in writing than saying it to someone in the face?But did you know that it has more value when you say it to their face?
- Did you know that what is most difficult for you to say or do is much more valuable than anything that is valuable that you can buy with money?
- Did you know that if you ask for something in faith, your wishes are granted?
- Did you know that you can make your dreams come true, like falling in love, becoming rich, staying healthy, if you ask for it by faith, and if you really knew, you'd be surprised by what you could do.

Respect is the by-product of a four-letter word ? L-O-V-E
RESPECT plays a HUGE role in building people's self esteem, increasing energy levels, motivating and promoting well-being. Regardless of who we interact with, it can be expressed on one level alone and does not have to be tailored to suit the relationship.
Respect can be demonstrated in a variety of ways:
- attentive listening
- referring to a person by name
- being courteous and polite
- learning the person's values and beliefs so as not to offend with inappropriate or offensive remarks
- taking the person aside when need be to discuss matters that would offend or demean if handled publicly
- eliminating offensive language and profanity from your vocabulary
By treating others with respect, you will be amazed by how they will go out of their way to support you. Like-minded individuals will be drawn to you and you will be treated with the same respect you show to others.
By showing respect you are silently communicating, "You Matter" and although you may not see an immediate impact, you are making a positive difference and will be rewarded for your kindness through universal reciprocation.
As you start this week, make a conscious effort to show respect to every soul you encounter, even the gnarly lady at the fruit stand and the cranky bus driver. Learn people's names and show a genuine interest in them. Wish them a good day and thank them for their efforts.

Roebling could not ignore the vision he had in his mind of this bridge. He thought about it all the time and he knew deep in his heart that it could be done. He just had to share the dream with someone else. After much discussion and persuasion he managed to convince his son Washington, an up and coming engineer, that the bridge in fact could be built.
Working together for the first time, the father and son developed concepts of how it could be accomplished and how the obstacles could be overcome. With great excitement and inspiration, and the headiness of a wild challenge before them, they hired their crew and began to build their dream bridge.
The project started well, but when it was only a few months underway a tragic accident on the site took the life of John Roebling. Washington was injured and left with a certain amount of brain damage, which resulted in him not being able to walk or talk or even move.
"We told them so.""Crazy men and their crazy dreams.""It`s foolish to chase wild visions."
Everyone had a negative comment to make and felt that the project should be scrapped since the Roeblings were the only ones who knew how the bridge could be built. In spite of his handicap Washington was never discouraged and still had a burning desire to complete the bridge and his mind was still as sharp as ever.
He tried to inspire and pass on his enthusiasm to some of his friends, but they were too daunted by the task. As he lay on his bed in his hospital room, with the sunlight streaming through the windows, a gentle breeze blew the flimsy white curtains apart and he was able to see the sky and the tops of the trees outside for just a moment.
It seemed that there was a message for him not to give up. Suddenly an idea hit him. All he could do was move one finger and he decided to make the best use of it. By moving this, he slowly developed a code of communication with his wife.
He touched his wife's arm with that finger, indicating to her that he wanted her to call the engineers again. Then he used the same method of tapping her arm to tell the engineers what to do. It seemed foolish but the project was under way again.
For 13 years Washington tapped out his instructions with his finger on his wife's arm, until the bridge was finally completed. Today the spectacular Brooklyn Bridge stands in all its glory as a tribute to the triumph of one man's indomitable spirit and his determination not to be defeated by circumstances. It is also a tribute to the engineers and their team work, and to their faith in a man who was considered mad by half the world. It stands too as a tangible monument to the love and devotion of his wife who for 13 long years patiently decoded the messages of her husband and told the engineers what to do.
Perhaps this is one of the best examples of a never-say-die attitude that overcomes a terrible physical handicap and achieves an impossible goal.

People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime. When you know which one it is, you will know what to do for that person.
When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend and they are. They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometim! es they act up and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is time to move on.
Some people come into your life for a SEASON, because your turn has come to share, grow or learn. They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it, it is real. But only for a season.!
LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons, things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life. It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.
