Most days are the same as the heart demands. Waking up just like other mechanical human practices is a careful orchestrated natural phenomenon that even scientists have not fully understood. In most cases no one knows they are waking up until they have woken up.
We have to be thankful each time we have woken up and need to look skywards in a grateful embracing manner to appreciate that as we have made it to another glorious day, others have not been so fortunate.
Life is a lesson. It demands continual learning and keeping up-to-date with the constant maneuvering necessary to sustain life. The champions are the people who come to the realization of the truth that holds up all to be. Some say to be and or not to be is the divide for the enlightened.
The quotes this week continue extraction from a book that has living narratives necessary for people to live life in full. I am sure the few selected quotations from this book listed below will enlighten you to one or two life lessons. Read and enjoy:
LETTERS FROM J.D ROCKEFELLER TO HIS SON – Perspective, ideology and Wisdom
“Faith is Gold. — The level of confidence determines the level of achievement. —– As long as we believe that we can succeed, we will succeed. —– I never believed that failure is the mother of success, I believe that faith is the father of success. — (The force which have lighted my way, and time after time have given me new courage to face life cheerfully, have been confidence.)”
“Be happy, my son. You need to know that no one in this world leads a smooth life; on the contrary, they live side by side with failure. Perhaps it is because there are so many helpless failures in the world that the pursuit of excellence becomes fascinating that it still makes people chase after it, even at the expense of their life. Even so, failure still comes.”
“Ten years ago, a young reporter from The New York Sun interviewed him, and asked: ‘Mr. Edison, your current invention has failed 10,000 times. What do you think of this?’”
“Only giving up will result in failure. There is nothing in the world that can replace perseverance. —— Unless you give up, you will not be beaten, —— Too many people overestimate what they lack, but underestimate what they have. —– (Too many people overvalue what they are not and undervalue what they are.)”
“As we continue to reach the peak, we must remember: each step of the ladder allows us to enough time to step on, and then set foot to a higher level, it is not for us to rest. We are tired and discouraged on the way, but like a boxer said, you must fight another round to win. When encountering difficulties, we must fight another round. Everyone has unlimited potential inside, and unless we know where it is and insist on using it, it is worthless.”
