Decision, Decisions

Life is basically a series of choices we make every day. We have to evaluate, decide, draw conclusions. Frank Borham said, “We make our decisions and then our decisions make us.” The quality of your life will be determined by the kind of decisions you make.

Be A Person of Excellence

But, Caru, at my company everybody slacks off when the boss is gone. Everybody compromises at my school. Not everybody takes care of their yard in my neighborhood. No, here’s the Key. You are NOT EVERYBODY! You’re a cut above. You are called to be excellent. Krishna wants you to set the highest standard. You […]

Living a “No Excuses” Life

Stop making excuses. Quit dwelling on disappointments, the unfairness & hurt that’s been inflicted on you. The worst handicaps are those we place on ourselves. Tony Melendez had a dream to play guitar. But he had been born w/out arms. Could have said, “it’s unfair” but his attitude was, ” I may not have any […]

When a Door Slams in Your Face

Now there is a difference between when a door slams in your face and when a door is just closed. When it’s closed, you have no expectations. But a door that slammed in your face was open, and you thought you could go through it to a whole new world of opportunities. But then, it […]
