Sharing a few Uplifting Thoughts (from my notes)

Submitters Note

Here are some of my notes and thoughts (in point form) that I've collected and written down over the years, which may be of interest and get you “tinking” about these “airey-fairey matters”. Some are from authors unknown. I find them empowering and inspirational on my own journey "on the path less travelled". So will share with you and hope them may be uplifting, empowering and perhaps even inspirational to you too. Enjoy...

March to the beat of your own drum

You make a living from what you get; you make a life from what you give.
Those who can, do;
those who can't criticize

"You'll never get rich ploughing someone else's field."

"What you learn in the light, you'll never forget in the dark."

"Don't blow your own trumpet, unless you know what song you're playing."

It's a sin to aim too low!

"Nothing can kill an idea in which the light of truth is burning."

"The dream is bigger than I ever could have imagined."
Strength of spirit in the human heart.

"Success happens when preparedness meets opportunity."

Make a life - not a living.

A revolution of the spirit

Learn from the past, but live in the future.

If you can dream it, you can do it.

If you have the faith, God has the power.

There is no triumph without adversity.

Every life is significant.
God has a purpose, a plan for you.

We all have a calling. Be all that God has called you to be.
God doesn't answer every prayer of ours.
Fear keeps most people from achieving their dreams.

Vision is the key to the impossible. In every life there is the possibility of triumph, no matter where you have come from or whatever adversity you have had to overcome.

"If you have the faith, God has the power."

We have an amazing power within.
"Software- spiritware"

If one looks for the best in every person, the best will reveal itself. Every human being has a story rich in drama, humour, pathos, greatness and perhaps tragedy.

When faith is the guide an individual cannot lose their way.
Faith gives a broader perspective to see our problems.
Trust yourself and you always have someone to rely on.

Believe and you shall achieve.
- Napoleon Hill

Set no limits
We have so much potential within us.

SOUTH AFRICA

"I felt emotionally stateless and disoriented."

"Peace comes after a violent past soaked in blood. Add colours to the rich mosaic, the tapestry of diverse and vibrant life of South Africans."

"I was a child, a product of the apartheid years. My life was consumed by apartheid; so that I could not live a 'normal' life in SA. I had to leave to focus on living . A stable normal life, fulfill my potential and do the best for my family."
Make a successful - ... with politics and deeper issues./

"Marriage is a marathon - you can't sprint all the way!"

"You are a sculptor not only of your todays, but your tomorrows

Ask yourself this question:
' Is this going to get me what I want out in life?'

"Fake it till you make it!"

The struggle is worthwhile and fulfilling. Gives meaningto my life. Enables me to love, to serve and to try again.

"Where there's care, there's hope."

"If it's to be, it's up to me!"

"The more I need someone, the less I can love them" .
