Take

We can take anything we want. It is our choice.

Take CHANCES, make changes!

In life, we encounter many opportunities every single minute. Perhaps we may not see it as a chance to excel right then but if we are to look in the right direction, we will be able to understand that life has much to offer. Often, we only look at the problems we have at hand and ignore all the wonderful things that are placed upon us.

We love to dwell in the past or in our current situation. What is the point? What are we living for? Life is too short to just stay in the same spot.

Many people only concentrate on what others say. How often do we pay attention to our inner-self? That little voice inside of us is so soft it is often unheard but it is our true self. We can listen to opinions of others but we have to pay attention to our own first. We need to decide ourselves how we want to live our life. Nobody else can decide for us.

Take ACTION, create our own path!

We can learn all wisdom there is in the world but it all means nothing if we do not take action. We spend our whole life learning from our own experience and the experience of others. Perhaps it is time to let our guards down a little to learn from our mistakes.

We always only celebrate the success of others. What we need to understand is that success do not come overnight. Success only go to people who takes action.

We can be born rich. We are given all the wealth in the world. We inherit a kingdom, thanks to our ancestors. What are we to do with all the riches? We can choose to spend every penny we have or we can build another empire that belongs to us, entirely. We can choose to expense off for our favourite things or we can make others’ lives better.

We may not know what we want to do yet. Perhaps it will take longer for us to realize our true dreams but it does not really matter at all. Colonel Sanders only founded Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) past sixty. Most of us would think our life is as is, hard fixed, if we are not successful by the age of forty. While this may be true for the norm, can we be the outstanding?

Nola Ochs set the first record for being the oldest graduate from college at the age of ninety-five. Where there is a will, there is a way. If we want something really bad, we will find all means and ways to get it. Regardless of the situation we are in, the age we are at, all that really matters is determination and courage to take action to move forward. There is no limit to what we can do. The limit is what we have in the mind. Stay open-minded, let all opportunities enlighten us, and take action.

Give KINDNESS, Nurture LOVE!

Most of us are extremist. I have a reason for saying so. There are a lot of people who are very good at taking while others are very good at giving. We are living in two extreme sides of the world. Those who love to take will even take what does not belong to them while those who are kind enough to give often have nothing much left to their last breath. We are living in the real world. We have to strike a balance between the two, take and give.

Perhaps Robin Hood has set a good example in this matter. Most say it is just a fable but every story has a lesson to learn. While a person may be balancing between taking and giving, the extremists may only see the harshness or the kindness side. Very few will take the time to understand both sides of the story. Therefore, it is not important how others see us or what others say about us. It is only important what we contribute back to society and nature.

The art of taking is giving in return.

 

You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, ‘I lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.’

Anna Eleanor Roosevelt (Eleanor Roosevelt), First Lady of the United States of America, 1884-1962
