Dr. Abdul Kalam's Quotes...

Few quotes of Dr. Abdul Kalam which inspires me a lot....


Be more dedicated to making solid achievements than in running after swift but synthetic happiness. 

Climbing to the top demands strength, whether it is to the top of Mount Everest or to the top of your career. 

Do we not realize that self respect comes with self reliance? 

Great dreams of great dreamers are always transcended.

Look at the sky. We are not alone. The whole universe is friendly to us and conspires only to give the best to those who dream and work. 

Man needs his difficulties because they are necessary to enjoy success.

Roses...

Value each and every moment in life....that t secret of positive energy.
Value each and every relationship...........and all those things which helps in
your personal growth............


Red roses were her favorites, her name was also Rose.
And every year her husband sent them, tied with pretty bows.
The year he died, the roses were delivered to her door.
The card said, "Be my Valentine", like all the years before.


Each year he sent her roses, and the note would always say, 
"I love you even more this year, than last year on this day. 
My love for you will always grow, with every passing year."
She knew this was the last time that the roses would appear.


She thought, he ordered roses in advance before this day.
Her loving husband did not know, that he would pass away.
He always liked to do things early, way before the time.
Then, if he got too busy, everything would work out fine.


She trimmed the stems, and placed them in a very special vase.
Then, sat the vase beside the portrait of his smiling face.
She would sit for hours, in her husband's favorite chair.
While staring at his picture, and the roses sitting there.


A year went by, and it was hard to live without her mate.
With loneliness and solitude, that had become her fate.
Then, the very hour, as on Valentines before,
The doorbell rang, and there were roses, sitting by her door.


She brought the roses in, and then just looked at them in shock.
Then, went to get the telephone, to call the florist shop. 
The owner answered, and she asked him, if he would explain, 
Why would someone do this to her, causing her such pain?


"I know your husband passed away, more than a year ago," 
The owner said, "I knew you'd call, and you would want to know. 
The flowers you received today, were paid for in advance.
Your husband always planned ahead, he left nothing to chance.


There is a standing order, that I have on file down here, 
And he has paid, well in advance, you'll get them every year. 
There also is another thing, that I think you should know, 
He wrote a special little card...he did this years ago.


Then, should ever I find out that he's no longer here, 
That's the card...that should be sent, to you the following year."
She thanked him and hung up the phone, her tears now flowing hard. 
Her fingers shaking, as she slowly reached to get the card.


Inside the card, she saw that he had written her a note. 
Then, as she stared in total silence, this is what he wrote...
"Hello my love, I know it's been a year since I've been gone, 
I hope it hasn't been too hard for you to overcome.


I know it must be lonely, and the pain is very real.
For if it was the other way, I know how I would feel.
The love we shared made everything so beautiful in life.
I loved you more than words can say, you were the perfect wife.


You were my friend and lover, you fulfilled my every need.
I know it's only been a year, but please try not to grieve.
I want you to be happy, even when you shed your tears.
That is why the roses will be sent to you for years.


When you get these roses, think of all the happiness, 
That we had together, and how both of us were blessed.
I have always loved you and I know I always will.
But, my love, you must go on, you have some living still.


Please...try to find happiness, while living out your days.
I know it is not easy, but I hope you find some ways. 
The roses will come every year, and they will only stop, 
When your door's not answered, when the florist stops to knock.


He will come five times that day, in case you have gone out. 
But after his last visit, he will know without a doubt, 
To take the roses to the place, where I've instructed him, 
And place the roses where we are, together once again.


Sometimes in life, you find a special friend;
Someone who changes your life just by being part of it.
Someone who makes you laugh until you can't stop;
Someone who makes you believe that there really is good in the world.
Someone who convinces you that there really is an unlocked door just
waiting for you to open it.

Focus your mind.....

Received this as a forward message.....Some tips to focus your mind


1. Witness your thoughts. No one can stop thinking entirely; it is impossible. If you start trying not to think, you only end up thinking about how to stop thinking! What you can do, however, is to withdraw from your thoughts and become more of an objective spectator.
2. Picture your mind as a blank canvas or a dark sky. Allow your thoughts to come and go, but resist the urge to follow each one. Your brain will eventually slow down and you will feel less pressured.
3. Count. If you find it difficult to let go of your thoughts, try counting slowly as you breathe. Watch your thoughts and try to resist following them. Turn your attention to the count as you breathe out.
4. Pay active attention. As you work and think, try to keep your attention on the task at hand. Be strict with yourself and each time your mind wanders, return it to the task. As you keep refocusing your attention, your “mind stillness” will improve.
5. Still your body. One sign of fragmented attention is fragmented movement. For example, when you are at the theatre, it is easy to tell if others around you are fully attentive to the performance. People who sniff and sigh, move their heads this away and that, and wiggle in their seats are having some difficulty concentrating. Rapt attention is usually accompanied by still body posture.
6. Find a comfortable position and don’t allow yourself to move. Concentrate on what you are doing or watching, drawing your attention away from physical distractions, and focus your thoughts on your task. After a while, you will notice that you fidget less and feel less physical discomfort. You are now channeled into mental exertion.
7. Interest your mind. Try to find interest in projects to help you concentrate. Taking up a new hobby can be a tremendous help. You should also try to find something interesting even in the dullest chore. If you are at a gathering, find someone and start a conversation. Be inquisitive and you might discover you have similar interests.
8. Open the mind. Just as strength, stamina and flexibility must be incorporated in your physical routine, the mind needs new and absorbing challenges to give it a change from its everyday journey. Notice something new on the same way home that you might not have noticed before. Buy a magazine on a subject you normally wouldn’t look at, read it, and open yourself to new possibilities.

Lovely song....!

At times even the film/album songs can trigger your positive thoughts... 
I like this song so much for its beautiful lyrics.....and I believe,  if you give more, you will receive lot of positive energy.....just for a change read this and listen to the song........All that you want, Boyzone......


[all that you want, will be yours]
Look here now, read my lips
Focus on my fingertips
Understand, these open hands
I give to you, all thats true

So sail away and free your ghost
Give to whom you love the most
Give away and youll believe
All good things, youll receive

The more you give, the more you get
Always try, not to forget
So give it all away, hey
All that you want, will be yours

 All good things come to those who wait
All that you want will be yours

 The more you give, the more you get
Always try, not to forget
So give it all away, hey.
All that you want

The more you give, the more you get
Always try, not to forget
So give it all away, hey.
All that you want
Will be yours

All that you want will be yours

Quiz...


Take this quiz: 
1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world. 
2. Name the last five Heisman trophy winners. 
3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America contest. 
4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer Prize. 
5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winners for best actor actress. 
6. Name the last decade's worth of World Series winners. How did you do? 


The point is, none of us remember the headliners of yesterday. These are no second-rate achievers. They are the best in their fields. But the applause dies. Awards tarnish. Achievements are forgotten. Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners.


Here's another quiz. See how you do on this one: 
1. List a few teachers who aided your journey through school. 
2. Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult time. 
3. Name five people who have taught you something worthwhile. 
4. Think of a few people who have made you feel, appreciated and special. 
5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with. 
6. Name half a dozen heroes whose stories have inspired you. Easier?


The lesson: The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones with the most credentials, the most money, or the most awards. They are the ones who care.

Quotes in Praise of Hindustan

Mark Twain, American author: "India is, the cradle of the human race, the birthplace of human speech, the mother of history, the grandmother of legend, and the great grand mother of tradition. our most valuable and most instructive materials in the history of man are treasured up in India only."


Max Mueller, German scholar: If I were asked under what sky the human mind has most fully developed some of its choicest gifts, has most deeply pondered on the greatest problems of life, and has found solutions, I should point to India.


Henry David Thoreau, American Thinker & Author: Whenever I have read any part of the Vedas, I have felt that some unearthly and unknown light illuminated me. In the great teaching of the Vedas, there is no touch of sectarianism. It is of all ages, climbs, and nationalities and is the royal road for the attainment of the Great Knowledge. When I read it, I feel that I am under the spangled heavens of a summer night.


Keith Bellows, National Geographic Society : "There are some parts of the world that, once visited, get into your heart and won't go. For me, India is such a place. When I first visited, I was stunned by the richness of the land, by its lush beauty and exotic architecture, by its ability to overload the senses with the pure, concentrated intensity of its colors, smells, tastes, and sounds... I had been seeing the world in black & white and, when brought face-to-face with India, experienced everything re-rendered in brilliant technicolor."

A nice story...!

One day a father planned to teach his son a good lesson for life that the little boy would keep up his whole life. He took his son to their garden. The little boy was full of joy, jumping in seeing all kinds of fruits hanging in trees. They went near the orange tree and the father plucked one for his son. The little boy received it gladly and bites it without peeling the skin. It tastes sour and he dropped it into the ground. 

The father asked, “Son, this fruit is so delicious and healthy to our body, why did you dropped it? ” The little boy answered, “Dad, it tastes so bitter, it could not be a good fruit.”  The father then plucked another orange and asked his son to peel the skin and eat. The little boy found it so tasty and amazingly asked his father, “Dad, how could the bitterness of the fruit turns to sweetness"? 

The father replied, “Dear son, you have first tasted its cover. The cover is not meant for eating. The fruit lies within. This tough cover is made for the fruit to safeguard it, as it holds taste and tenderness. 

Dear son, every, God’s creation has its own goodness.”
So, never judge anyone/anything by what you see.
Realize what you have chosen to see, either its cover or the fruit itself. See what they posses and never what they display.

Every Deed Counts....

You can easily judge the character of others by how they treat those
who can do nothing for them or to them.


If lately you have been telling others - How good your character is?
Ask yourself, judge it for yourself;
What good that you have done for others who cannot do any good for you?


Make difference to all lives you touch.
When you build your character, every deed counts!

Motivating Quotes...

"Would you like me to give you a formula for success? It's quite simple, really. Double your rate of failure. You are thinking of failure as the enemy of success. But it isn't at all. You can be discouraged by failure or you can learn from it, So go ahead and make mistakes. Make all you can. Because remember that?s where you will find success." 
- Thomas J. Watson


 "The successful always has a number of projects planned, to which he looks forward. Anyone of them could change the course of his life overnight." 



"The person who gets the farthest is generally the one who is willing to do and dare. The sure-thing boat never gets far from shore."
-Dale Carnegie


 "Most successful men have not achieved their distinction by having some new talent or opportunity presented to them. They have developed the opportunity that was at hand."-- Bruce Barton

How are you?


Someone who, when asked "How are you?", would invariably respond "Marvellous", "Doing Great". And so what if he wasn't actually feeling that marvellous or great? Such a bright answer already created a positive impression on the other person and gave a feeling of things being good.

Now compare that to the answer I heard from someone else: "Not too bad" or "Okay". Not too bad? That immediately makes me feel that things ARE bad! What do you choose to answer when you are asked "How are you?"


"Your attitude is an expression of your values, beliefs and expectations"


Brian Tracy
