“I decided in my life that I would do
nothing that did not reflect positively
on my father’s life.”

Think Before We Speak
“Before you speak, let your words pass through three gates.
At the first gate, ask yourself, ‘Is it true?’
At the second ask, ‘Is it necessary?’
At the third gate ask ‘Is it kind?”
Rumi

The quote from Rumi I read on a blog I recently was introduced to. The blog is by Pat Cegan at Source of Inspiration. I wanted to give a call out to her. It’s a must read blog with beautiful poetry and words of inspiration.

Get Busy
“Inaction breeds doubt and fear.
Action breeds confidence and courage.
If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home
and think about it. Go out and get busy.”

Appealing People
“What we are today comes from our thoughts of yesterday,
and our present thoughts build our life of tomorrow:
Our life is the creation of our mind.”
Buddha
We should all live life aware of our self-fulfilling prophecies. If we wake up with an attitude that the world is unfair, we will inevitably meet a world full of small-minded people.
But, if we wake every morning and draw attention to all the times in our life that people helped us or just showed kindness, we walk into a world of appealing people.

Windows of Your Mind
“What you really want for yourself is always trying to break through,
just as a cooling breeze flows through an open window on a hot day.
Your part is to open the windows of your mind.”
