Between stimulus and response is our greatest
power - the freedom to choose!
Admission of ignorance is often the
first step in our education!

Between
If the ladder
If the ladder is not leaning against the right wall, every step
we take just gets us to the wrong place faster!

Know This
The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level
of thinking we were at, when we created them!
Leave it to others to do the complaining, blaming and worrying; Focus your
efforts on positive pursuits, that will make a real difference!
Patience and perseverance have a magical effect, before
which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish!
The tragedy of life is not death, but what
we let die inside of us while we live!
Treat people as if they were what they ought to be and
help them become what they are capable of being!
You have a very powerful mind that can make anything
happen as long as you keep yourself centered!
The secret of getting ahead is
getting started!
There is no great achievement that is not the result
of patient working and waiting!
Difficulties in your life do not come to destroy you, but to help you realize
your hidden potential; Let difficulties know that
Life's challenges are not supposed to paralyze you, they're
supposed to help you discover who you are!
The true measure of a person is not how he/she behaves in moments of comfort and
convenience, but how he/she stands at times of controversy and challenges!
Enthusiasm is a volcano on whose top, never grows
the grass of hesitation!
Don't be afraid of the space between your dreams and reality;
If you can dream it, you can make it also!
Courage is almost a contradiction in terms; It means a strong desire
to live taking the form of a readiness to die!
Good thoughts are not different from good dreams,
unless they are executed!
In life, as in football, you won't go far, unless
you know where the goalposts are!
There is no chance, no destiny, no fate, that can hinder or control
the firm resolve of a determined soul!
It doesn't matter where you are coming from;
All that matters is where you are going!
Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap,
but by the seeds you plant!
Ideas are the commodities to success and the most
effective people are the most effective thinkers!
The value of life lies not in the length of our days, but in the use we
make of them!
Happiness is a perfume you cannot pour on others,
without getting a few drops on yourself!
Enthusiasm releases the drive to carry you over obstacles
and adds significance to all you do!
Good intentions are not good enough; Ultimately we are
measured by our actions!
Great things are not done by impulse, but by
a series of small things brought together!
The real measure of your wealth is how much you'd
be worth if you lost all of your money!
Life is a succession of lessons ; It
must be lived to be understood!
No one can go back and make a brand new start; But anyone
can start from now and make a grand new ending!
Being happy doesn't mean everything is perfect; It means
you've decided to see beyond the imperfections!
If you have one eye on yesterday, and one eye on tomorrow,
you're going to be cockeyed today!
We can do anything we want to do,
if we stick to it long enough!
A Journey of thousand miles,
begins with a single step!
In times of sunshine and in times of storms, always remember
there are brighter days ahead!
When you realize what you have and appreciate it,
then you have true wealth beyond measure!
With a positive perspective, the big picture becomes
clear and opportunities are revealed!
An admirable reputation precedes and succeeds the person,
who practices good deeds daily!
We may be very efficient, but we will also be truly effective
only when we begin with the end in mind!
Our ultimate freedom is the right and power to decide how
anybody or anything outside ourselves will affect us!
The trouble with not
The trouble with not having a goal is that you can spend your life
running up and down the field but never score!
Coins always make sound
Coins always make sound, while the currency notes are always silent;
When your value increases, keep yourself calm and silent!

Much of life can never be explained but only witnessed
A baby hippopotamus that survived the
tsunami waves on the Kenyan coast has formed a strong
bond with a giant male century-old tortoise in an animal
facility in the port city of Mombassa , officials said
The hippopotamus, nicknamed Owen and weighing about
300 kilograms (650 pounds), was swept down Sabaki
River into the Indian Ocean , then forced back to shore
when tsunami waves struck the Kenyan coast on
December 26, before wildlife rangers rescued him.
'It is incredible
'It is incredible. A-less-than-a-year-old hippo has adopted a
male tortoise, about a century old, and the tortoise seems to
be very happy with being a 'mother',' ecologist Paula Kahumbu,
who is in charge of Lafarge Park , told AFP.
After it was swept away
'After it was swept away and lost its mother, the hippo was traumatized.
It had to look for something to be a surrogate mother.
Fortunately , it landed on the tortoise and established a strong bond.
They swim, eat and sleep together,' the ecologist added.
'The hippo follows the tortoise exactly the way it followed its mother.
If somebody approaches the tortoise, the hippo becomes aggressive,
as if protecting its biological mother,' Kahumbu added.
hippo is a young
'The hippo is a young baby, he was left at a very tender age and
by nature, hippos are social animals that like to stay with their
mothers for four years,' he explained.
Life is not measured
'Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take,
but by the moments that take our breath away.'
Save the Earth... it's the only planet with chocolate.
This is a real story that shows that our differences don't matter
much when we need the comfort of another..
We could all learn a lesson from these two creatures.
'Look beyond the differences and find a way to walk the path together.'
