You must fall in love 3 times:

Once you must fall in love with your best friend, ruining your friendship forever. This will teach you who your true friends are, and the fine line between friendship and more.

Once you must fall in love with someone you believe to be perfect. You will learn that no one is perfect, and that you should never be treated as any less than you deserve.

And once you mus
t fall in love with someone that is exactly like you. This will teach you about who you are, and who you want to be.

SIX STRATEGIES FOR BUILDING SELF-CONFIDENCE :
1. Practice.
2. BEHAVE AS IF U R MORE CONFIDENT THAN U FEEL.
3. Be fLexible in your behaviour.
4. LEARN FROM UR MISTAKES.
5. Silence the voice of Self-Blame.
6.Learn to be kind to urself. FORGIVE OTHERS AND UR OWN SELF TOO.

If someone is strong enough to bring you down, show them that you are strong enough to get up.

Start where you stand and never mind the past,
The past won't help you in beginning new,
If you have left it all behind at last
Why, that's enough, you're done with it, you're through;
This is another chapter in the book,
This is another race that you have planned,
Don't give the vanished days a backward look,
Start where you stand....

If you don't build your dream,
someone will hire you to help build theirs!

“A major, major part of excellence has nothing to do with talent. In course of time, once you go beyond a certain level, ability or talent is the most useless virtue to possess. Its what you do with that talent that matters. Beyond a point, its passion, attitude and work ethics that count far far far more than talent�
- Harsha Bhogle .

I can make the rain stop if I wanna, Just by my attitude I can take my laptop record a snapshot And change your point of view I just entered this brand new world And I'm so openhearted I know I've got a long way to go but I I'm just getting started :);)

Every morning in Africa, a Gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed. Every morning a Lion wakes up. It knows it must outrun the slowest Gazelle or it will starve to death. It doesn't matter whether you are a Lion or a Gazelle... when the sun comes up, you'd better be running.

"The greatest mistake we humans make in our relationships:

Came across a very good story, so sharing it here:

"Perspective does matter"
One day, a father of a very wealthy family took his son on a trip to the country with the firm purpose of showing his son how poor people live. They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of what would be considered a very poor family. On their return from their trip, the father asked his son, How was the trip?
It was great, Dad.
Did you see how poor people live? the father asked.
Oh yeah, said the son.
So, tell me, what did you learn from the trip? asked the father.
The son answered, I saw that we have one dog and they had four. We have a pool that reaches to the middle of our garden, and they have a creek that has no end. We have imported lanterns in our garden, and they have the stars at night. Our patio reaches to the front yard, and they have the whole horizon. We have a small piece of land to live on, and they have fields that go beyond our sight. We have servants who serve us, but they serve others. We buy our food, but they grow theirs. We have walls around our property to protect us; they have friends to protect them.
The boys father was speechless.
Then his son added, Thanks, Dad, for showing me how poor we are.

Isn't perspective such a wonderful thing? Makes us wonder what would happen if we all gave thanks for what we have rather than worrying about what we dont have.......

When you are going through Hell, Keep Going

Albert Einstein

Small courtesies will take a person much farther than cleverness

When the solution is simple, God is answering.

------Albert Einstein

Make peace with your past so it wont screw up the present.

Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life - think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success, that is way great spiritual giants are produced.

Swami Vivekananda

"People are often unreasonable and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.

If you are honest, people may cheat you. Be honest anyway.

If you find happiness, people may be jealous. Be happy anyway.

The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway.

Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough. Give your best anyway.

For you see, in the end, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway."


-Mother Teresa

Nice line from Sidney Sheldon book...

" When you read the book you don't know about the next page, same as in life you never know what will happen. so turn the page of your book."

We all are in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.

Life only gets its meaning after we have been killed a few times. Each death is a larger birth.

We are what our thoughts have made us; so take care about what you

think. Words are secondary. Thoughts live; they travel far.

- swami vivekananda

Our Lives give us some time to live in this world, and that time snatches the most precious parts of our lives from us.

Some of the quotes that inspire me :

The harder i work the luckier i get....
The pain of dissapointment is nothing like the pain of discipline...

And the legndary lance armstrong quote...
"Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever."

And once again I'll put up something of mine. :)

The best and the worst thing about people is, sooner or later, they all go away.

mother of all the inspiring quotes!!

Fear is death, fear is sin, fear is hell, fear is unrighteousness, fear is wrong life. All the negative thoughts and ideas that are in the world have proceeded from this evil spirit of fear. swami vivekananda

another beautiful quote by mother taresa
"If you judge people, you have no time to love them."

"Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love."
Mother Teresa

the 1 quote that has always helped me making lots of decisions whenever i get stuck in some dilemma

its "if you are not sure what u have to do then atleast be sure of what u don't have to do"

trust me guys it really helps. Just like sometimes eliminating the options in an objective exams helps. Sometimes while making a decision our mind keeps wandering about the useless things which really don't matter in decision making..

All power is within you. You can do anything and everything. Believe in that. Do not believe that you are weak; do not believe that you are half-crazy lunatics, as most of us do nowadays. Stand up and express the divinity within you.

Winning is not about getting rid of the people you attach yourself closest. It's about pulling yourself through with the world. Nothing can be achieved alone, and within a day. :)

What you think is what you become!!

What is FEAR?

F - False
E - Evidence
A - Appearing
R - Real

Never fear the fear!

There are so many people out there who will tell you that you can't. What you've got to do is turn around and say "Watch me".
