1. Have high ambitions and work hard to achieve them-don't bother too much about the results for results will come tomorrow if not today. 2. Realize the importance of time and utilize it optimally. 3. Try to cultivate self confidence-you need to acquire knowledge in the field you want to be confident 4.Try hard to overcome your fears. 5. Love your family and the people around you. 6.Make as much as possible and enemies as less as possible 7.Do not long for something you can't afford 8. Be yourself-let others themselves-never compare your dear ones with others 9.Learn to forgive others 10. say thanks and remain grateful to those who help you. 11. Avoid asking for monetary help from friends and relatives 12.say sorry when you commit mistakes 13. learn to enjoy the life-with what you 14.Surrender to God and have full faith on Him.... Friends, don't ask me whether I practice all these... I do try to practice them-sometimes I fail though.. What do you think?

Hello dear brother, Well,i want to be specific... 1.) i don't aim too much high with ambitions...i had dreams and wishes,and wishing it would come true someday or sooner.I also try to work things out to achieve some dreams...it is still better to have dreams rather than living in blank space with no direction. 2.)this is a must...we can never turn back the hands of time...so,we must do what we can do today "live life each day like it is the last day of our lives" 3.)i always practice this one...i want to know what are other things that i am capable to do with...i never restrict myself at one field...i want to explore more of my capabilities and talentsand i like the results.(lol) 4.)i don't have much fears...only sadness sometimes :( 5.)of course..i always say "i love you" to my loved ones...and do things for them as long as i can..i don't want to regret things left unspoken and undone! 6.)uh uh...i don't like to have any enemy...i wanted to be loved always (hahaha) 7.)uhmnn..if someone/somebody wants to give me a gift...(i want a beach house,i'm not materialistic anyway...hahaha,just kidding)...if i can afford it would be fine..if not...then,leave it..i think i won't die for not having it(lol) 8.)ohhhh...comparing oneself to others or finding ourself to other people is a foolishness...no two individual were perfectly the same...and comparing oneself to others is insecurity. 9.)it is always good to live in peace and serenity...so,i always forget and forgive..becoz,GOD will forgive those who forgives. 10.)of course...i am always grateful...i am a very sentimental person(uhuhuhu) 11.)on this aspect...my loved ones and friends were asking money from me...and...when i need money...no one is there to lend me (wahhhhhhhhhh)....pity me(bwuhuhuhu) 12.)i always admit mistakes when i did wrong...and say sorry for it. 13.)i always enjoy life...life is too short...why should i keep worrying then. 14.)101%...i trust my GOD and surrender everything that i have...anyway...whatever i had in this life were gift from GOD...so,i don't have anything i can call my own..but my GOD alone. Have a good day always dear brother

Hi vijayanths, These are very good lessons and it's too bad that most of us take a lifetime to learn them. Anyone who says that he has mastered them all is simply not telling the truth. Longing for something we can't affort makes for a very unhappy life and is one that we all need to learn early. I think that all are important lessons but whether anyone will ever master them all in one lifetime is certainly doubtful. Blessings.

Yes, Pose, no body can master them all. But I just wanted to remind them to friends like you and to myself. Again you posted a great response and thanks.

Till now I learned few things - 1. Love yourself. 2. Prioritize your priorities. 3. Be Practical. 4 Do not cheat anyone. 5. Trust in GOD. 6. Treat others in the same way you wanted to be treated. I know still a lot to learn from life and may be I am not able to recollect all I have learned. This is a continuous process I believe and we learn something everyday.

Hey Vijay, i think nice discussion to start with.... for me, i don't want to talk big on this, i want to tell one thing first that every person have its own way of living, every person in this world is superior and nothing can bind a human...but even then some things which i think i had learned and will learn more ... 1.) Focus - be focus in your life what you want and what you getting means you should know that i want a big BMW in my house only than you can get that.... 2.) Respond fully rather than React - Had u touch a hot fry pan?? if yes then what happens, i think you had taken your hand back instantly.... thats the react but respond is continuously fighting.. if u get caught in a fire then you will try your maximum to get away from that fire that is respond, so for any difficulty don't only react .... Respond 3.) Be mentally and emotionally strong - dont allow doubt, frustation, upsets or negative thoughts in your way, as your emotions and mental chi-chat will affect you, and will stop to give your best... 4.) Flexibility - Be flexible for any change in your life... dont panic and just Respond.... 5.) Clarity - Be clear that how you want to achieve your goal or how you will get your thing.... 6.) Learn every side before you jump into any conclusion. There's always 2 (or more) sides of a story. 7.) Do not easily trust anyone. Don't judge a book by its cover. Yet open your heart for human kindness. Be tactful to balance them. 8.)The person you love most is the person who will hurt you most. So be ready to get hurt before you decided to love anyone. In last i just only like to say that when difficulties are there don't panic don't say life "Why Me" say "Try Me" and you will get a self confidence in yourself and you can solve any problem of your life without any worry.

Lessons I have learned: 1. Love bears many things 2. Hard work and fun are often one and the same if you enjoy your work 3. We can change no one but ourselves, and even that can be a challenge 4. There is some good in all "bad" people and some bad in all "good" people 5. The simple everyday things are often the best 6. Money pays bills and eases some of our worries, but it never has and never will by happiness 7. The human spirit is a very strong thing! 8. There is more good, by far, than bad in people and in our world. Karen
