Here's Blog quote #527...

"If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change."
-Dr Wayne Dyer-

Wait a theckond( our Daffy Duck imitation)... 
Is there some trickery in this statement or  is it just one of those quotes that make you stop and think? And think some more. HMM...

Yes, things do look mighty different-- when you look at them from another angle. 

Ever "sleep on a problem?"  Then the next morning suddenly  you see things in a different light, and the answers are so vividly clear.

Anything you've been struggling with that you'd like to look at, with some new glasses?

That's my view...what say you?

Here's Blog Quote #526...

"In nothing do men more nearly approach the gods than in doing good to their fellow man."
-Cicero-

Frequently when I type, while in a hurry--  the word 'good' appears as god.. HMMM. 
Always makes me stop and think of the synergism of the two. 

Suggestion for the day:
Go out and do some good today. It will warm at least two hearts-- the recipient, and yours!
As a bonus, perhaps more than two of you will reap rewards from a good deed. Some may rub off on others. The deed may even spur recipients to go out and share good actions with still more people. Kind of like the pay it forward, or RAOK(random act of kindness) motion...

Sounds like a winner to me.

Here's Blog Quote #525...

Nobody reads a mystery to get to the middle.They read it to get to the end.If it's a letdown, they won't buy anymore. The first page sells that book. The last page sells your next book."
-Mickey Spillane-

Similar to any story, poem or article you read( or write). When you start the story it should be interesting off the bat. When you finish the story, it should be something that people will remember-- so they want to come back for more.

Let's say the story has 10 points, or paragraphs. Ideally, you'd like to have 10 for 10 strong paragraphs. Doesn't always work that way though.

So here's a suggestion--- if you only have 5 really good points, a decent  idea to have two of them listed first and second, then one in the middle, then close strong with the last two. Just a few thoughts when writing...

Too many people spend money that haven't earned, to buy things they don't want, to impress people they don't like."
-Will Rogers-

Anyone agree with Mr Rogers quote?

Anyone know why -- people do this?

Just curious of peoples feedback
Things that make you go HMMM...

Let's learn from Will Rogers -- NOT to do this.

Blog Quote #523

Here's Blog Quote #523...

"You may have a fresh start any moment you choose, for this thing we call 'failure,' is not the falling down, but the staying down."
-Mary Pickard-

This is a great quote to keep handy to share with others. For whom doesn't, at some point in life, need a nudge to keep going? To persevere. To press on. Regardless of what it is, that we need some cheering and encouragement-- we all do,  and we all will.

Thus as Ms Pickard suggests- the so called FRESH START, is in our minds. 
It's a decision we make. To get up. To dust off, and to march forward.

Thanks for the nudge, Mary Pickard. 
Share on to someone you know-- that may need a little boost or encouragement.

Here's Blog Quote #522...

You can't reach for anything new if your hands are still full of yesterday's junk."
-Louis Smith-

I think this is the authors way of saying-- yesterday is over. Good or bad, it's in the books.
Leave it there.

Start today anew. Find the sink, wash those hands clean, and let's start today-- Fresh and Positive.

The old line goes, yesterday is past us, tomorrow is the future,  and today is a gift. That is why they call it the present.

Live your life in the present. It's all you have right now, right this moment!
Good advice Louis!
