Keys to success

In international business all to often people are afraid....

• afraid of the unknown
• afraid they will fail
• afraid they are different

and more often than not those who succeed are the ones who are willing to try. So I recommend you "Dance Like No One's Watching".

Dance Like No One's Watching


We convince ourselves that life will be better after we get married,
have a baby, then another. Then we are frustrated that the kids
aren't old enough and we'll be more content when they are. After
that we're frustrated that we have teenagers to deal with. We will
certainly be happy when they are out of that stage. We tell
ourselves that our life will be complete when our spouse gets his or
her act together, when we get a nicer car, are able to go on a nice
vacation, when we retire. The truth is, there's no better time to be
happy than right now. If not now, when?

Your life will always be filled with challenges. It's best to admit
this to yourself and decide to be happy anyway. A favorite quote
comes from Alfred D Souza. He said, "For a long time it had
seemed to me that life was about to begin - real life. But there was
always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through
first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be
paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that these
obstacles were my life."

This perspective has helped me to see that there is no way to
happiness. Happiness is the way. So, treasure every moment that you
have. And treasure it more because you shared it with someone
special, special enough to spend your time...and remember that time
waits for no one.

So stop waiting until you finish school, until you go back to school,
until you lose ten pounds, until you gain ten pounds, until
you have kids, until your kids leave the house, until you start work,
until you retire, until you get married, until you get divorced, until
Friday night, until Sunday morning, until you get a new car or home,
until your car or home is paid off, until spring, until summer, until
fall, until winter, until you are off welfare, until the first or
fifteenth, until your song comes on, until you've had a drink, until
you've sobered up, until you die, to decide that there is no better
time than right now to be happy...Happiness is a journey, not a
destination.


Thought for the day:
Work like you don't need money,
Love like you've never been hurt,
And dance like no one's watching.

You will have fun and succeed at most of the things you try....
