Quote #387, My Thoughts and YOUR thoughts

Here goes Blog Quote #387...

"It has always been my belief that a man should do his best, regardless of how much he receives for his services, or the number of people he may be serving, or the class of people served."
-Dr. Napoleon Hill-

Funny when Hill wrote this, I don't think he had our armed forces in mind. Most likely the business folk.

Looking at this quote though, it applies to our brave military in the largest sense. They certainly are doing their best, given the difficult task, conditions, and orders thay have to follow and work with. You certainly couldn't pay these people enough... for how much is risking your life every day worth? Finally, the people, they are serving is you and I. And it's quite a large number to serve. Can you say an entire population?

So on this Memorial Day weekend, and every day, let us bow our heads and salute our bravest citizens. Without them, who knows where we would be. I'm certain of this:: not as safe and fortunate as we are with them. Thank you to all who have served.

Quote #386, My Thoughts and YOUR thoughts

Here goes Blog quote #386...

"When in doubt, make a fool of yourself. There is a microscopically thin line between being brilliantly creative and acting like the most gigantic idiot on the earth. So what the hell, leap."
-Cynthia Heimel-

Sounds to me like the rewards far out weigh the risk here. Chance to be brilliant, versus someone thinking you are a goofball. It's likely that you won't truly look that goofy or idiotic. It's kind of sad when you think of the possibility of someone truly making a difference in peoples lives, by going out on a limb, and how many times it gets snuffed out, do to fear of making a fool of themselves.

I say go for it. Much to gain, and very little to lose. So what if someone laughs at you. It's not the end of the world. But bringing something incredible to the table.. could be life altering!

Here goes Blog quote #385...

"A yawn is nature's way of giving the person listening to a bore, an opportunity to open his mouth."
-Bob Phillips-

This mornings quote on BORING people is pretty self explanatory. Quite witty as well.

Got to love those double meaning quotes!

Quote #384, My Thoughts and YOUR thoughts

Heres goes blog quote #384...

"When you feel dog tired at night, maybe it's because you did a bit too much growling all day long."
-Author unknown-

How about a bit of humor heading into the weekend. Who can't use more of that?

Also, as funny as this quote is, it's something to think about. Sometimes the truth is a bit on the hurtful side, yet we all need an 'about face', kick in the pants, every now and then.

Quote #383, My Thoughts and YOUR thoughts

Here goes Blog quote #383...

"Happiness is when what you think,what you say and what you do are in harmony."
-Mahatma Gandhi-

The infamous Gandhi always has such wisdom to share. Are you in harmony or are you on disconnect mode?

Are your thoughts, your words, and your actions all on the same page? Are they matching up, or are they all going in different directions?

Similar to a texas twister storm, disconnect and disarray can lead to a messy outcome. Best to get all three things flowing on the same path. Ahh, and when they are... can you feel the peace? The comfort? The body, mind, and spirit, all in sync.

Sync. Cohesion. Harmony. Three things that are very good for all of us.

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

Quote #382, My Thoughts and YOUR thoughts

Here goes Blog quote #382...

"Trust your hunches. They are usually based on facts, filed just below the conscious level."
-Dr Joyce Brothers-


HMMMM....

I have a feeling that there is some truth to this quote. And it's funny how many times your first impression is correct. Not always, but a strong percentage of the time. The "gut" is no slouch either.

Thats my view...what say you?
