When you look at a cer­tain object, a paint­ing just an inch away from your face, for exam­ple — you may not appre­ci­ate what’s in it, what is painted and what else goes with it. But if you pay atten­tion and try to take it a lit­tle fur­ther, you’ll have a clearer vision of the whole art work.

Why is it Important to Improve Yourself?

Some­times, when all of our doubts, fears and inse­cu­ri­ties wrap our­selves up, we always come up with the idea of “I wish I was some­body else.” More often than not, we think and believe that some­one or rather, most peo­ple are bet­ter than us, but when in the real­ity, the fact is — most peo­ple are more scared than us.

You spot a totally eye-catching girl sit­ting by her­self at a party, casu­ally sip­ping on a glass of Asti Spumanti. You think to your­self, “she looks so per­fectly calm and con­fi­dent.” But if you could read throw her trans­par­ent mind, you would see a bunch of clouds of thoughts run­ning around there, and you might just be amazed that she’s think­ing “are peo­ple talk­ing about why I am seated here alone? … Why don’t guys find me attrac­tive? … I don’t like my ankles, they look too skinny … I wish I was as intel­li­gent as my best friend.” Con­tinue reading

Pain may some­times be the rea­son why peo­ple change. Get­ting flunked grades make us real­ize that we need to study.

Debts remind us of our inabil­ity to look for a source of income. Being humil­i­ated gives us the ‘push’ to speak up and fight for our­selves to save our face from the next embar­rass­ments. It may be a bit­ter expe­ri­ence, a friend’s tragic story, a great movie, or an inspir­ing book that will help us get up and get just the right amount of moti­va­tion we need in order to improve ourselves.

With the count­less neg­a­tive­ness the world brings about, how do we keep moti­vated and avoid get into the neg­a­tive trap? Try on the tips from A to Z … Con­tinue reading

I hap­pened to over­hear a con­ver­sa­tion the other day between two men.

Young man has started learn­ing about real estate invest­ing. He has read books and attended sem­i­nars that put on by some gurus who make more money sell­ing infor­ma­tion about real estate invest­ing than they do invest­ing in real estate. I am impressed with the young man’s ini­tia­tive and atti­tude, he is tak­ing the action and will­ing to learn more, which is more than most peo­ple will do.

Old man owns his own house. Young man wants to buy real estate as an invest­ment, no mat­ter it is apart­ment build­ings, office build­ings or houses, it is that type of stuff. Well, old man has no expe­ri­ence in this area. Con­tinue reading

Impossible is Just a Word so Dream Higher

Every­one, at some point of his or her life, has dreamed of being some­body spe­cial, some­body big. Who hasn’t fan­ta­sized about being the one who hits the game-winning homer? Who hasn’t dreamed of being the home­com­ing queen? And how many times have we dreamed of being rich, or suc­cess­ful, or happy with our relationships?

Often time we dream big dreams and have great aspi­ra­tions. Unfor­tu­nately, our dreams remain just that – dreams. And our aspi­ra­tions eas­ily col­lect dust in our attic.

This is a sad turn of events in our life. Instead of expe­ri­enc­ing excit­ing adven­tures in self actu­al­iza­tion, we get caught up in the hum­drum of liv­ing from day-to-day just barely exist­ing. Con­tinue reading
