From This Moment ..............

I will be agreeable.

I will look as well as I can,

dress as  becomingly as I can, talk low,

act courteously, be liberal with praise,

criticize not at all, nor find fault with anything

and not try to regulate nor improve anyone.

Sybil F. Partridge

What about you today? Are you going to do something today?

I will exercise my soul in three ways;

I will do someone a good turn and not get found out.

I will do at least two things I don't want to do,

as William James suggests, just for exercise.

Sybil F. Partridge

I will try to strengthen my mind.

I will learn something useful.

I will not be a mental loafer.

I will read something that requires effort, thought and concentration.

Sibyl F. Partridge

I will take care of my body.

I will exercise it, care for it, not abuse it nor neglect it, so that it will be a perfect machine for my bidding.

Sibyl F. Partridge

We all have fears. Fears are like thorns. They will not let us live comfortably . They always remind us by the sudden jabs here and there.

Yes, we can die because of fears.

Read this poem:

An enemy I had, whose face I stoutly strove to know,

For hard he dogged my steps unseen, wherever I did go.

My plans he balked, my aims he foiled, he blocked my onward way.

When for some lofty goal I toiled, he grimly told me, "Nay."

One night I seized him and held him fast, from him the veil did draw,

I looked upon his face at last and lo - myself I saw!          

Anon

Now you should know ...... your fears in you are caused by YOU, yourself!

I will try to adjust myself to what is, and not try to everything to my own desires.

I will take my family, my business and my luck as they come and fit myself to them. 

Sibyl F. Partridge

I will be happy.
Happiness is from within; it is not a matter of externals

Sibyl F. Partridge

Holding on the past will not solve your problems in the present. If you were successful in the past, you need not to hold on to that. You can be even more successful today. What happened in the past will not repeat in the present.
Unless you know what you want, living in the present will be a nightmare because you keep on comparing yourself now with the past.
Let go, and you will feel better.
Tomorrow will be another day you will have to face. You do not need yesterday’s courage to live on. You just need a new plan!

We are weak sometimes. However, we need to stop being weak. Weakness can cause us many problems. Other people can see the weaken us, but we can’t. Then, we just wonder why we make so many mistakes.

As weaklings, we limited and restricted ourselves to many possibilities because we thought we couldn’t do them. This situation also inappropriately restricted our self-confidence and self-respect. Gradually, we lost without any fight.

Stop being weak, as we all have only a few ten years to live. We are responsible for every bit of our lives. We don’t live for others to see. We live for ourselves. We are our own testifiers.

We need to be strong, and dare to live out what we believe.
