Earthly Seasons

Earthly Seasons

Quote of the day

‘Every earthly season holds its own melodrama of courtship, hardship, relationship, leadership and untold friendship. You need to be Patient, Enduring and Tolerant every season of the year’

Seasons come and seasons go but they always leave behind a trail of knowledge, a vale of wisdom, a plateau of opportunities and a sea of optimism. As seasons come and go we notice changes, we notice regeneration and we notice a cyclic pattern of migration, predation and fertilisation. Welcome to your weekend of privacy, of piety and of variety. Privacy is good for you because you are not answerable to anyone. Piety is that period of goodness, kindness and respectfulness that you fall into and float like a dandelion in search of peace and equanimity. Variety is the opportunities available to you and based on your preferences you could do virtually anything. Like seasons in the year where changes are constantly happening, you will notice that changes are happening to you too. Some changes are infinitesimally small whilst others changes are notably bigger. Some changes are good and sadly some are not. As seasons come and go we need to focus are things that promote good changes in you. We also need to let bygones be bygones when bad changes occur. As seasons come and go we can always try again next year for better results and better opportunities. What went wrong last season can easily be amended in the next season. Nature has a way of dealing with losses and gains. You need to deal similar cards when you submerge yourself into a vale of possibilities and opportunities. Think before you wink or blink. Be like nature that makes notable changes annually. Change with the seasons and record your changes no matter how small they are. Some changes take longer than others. Be patient and let nature take its course. Be patient, enduring and tolerant each year. Be as popular as the seasons. Make notable changes in your life in increments you can cope with. Have a wonderful weekend and may you recharge every cell in your body to recover from bad changes and discover good changes.

Limitless Passion and Desire

Limitless Passion and Desire

Quote of the day

‘Seek limitless Love, Inspiration, Motivation, Ideas, Tolerance, Longevity, Eternity, Success and Serenity and you will find true Passion and Desire.’

Welcome to the last working day of another working week in August and sadly, the final one too. Did you fare well in August and are you ready to say farewell to a stupendous month of hyperactivity? Are you lacking Passion and Desire to make dreams come true and your goals to float above the surface of your imagination? To find true Passion and Desire you need to think Limitless. Now the word Limitless is actually a power word consisting of 9 keywords. These words are Love, Inspiration, Motivation, Ideas, Tolerance, Longevity, Eternity, Success and Serenity. Love is a melody of happiness, it is tender, pure, divine, genuine and friendly. If you can seek Love wholeheartedly then you are instilling the seeds to passion and desire. Inspiration comes for free. It rains inspiration from the heavens above and gently lands on your shoulders. Such a drench should actually quench your thirst for true passion and desire, using a psychological wrench Motivation then follows. Motivation is action stimulated by Inspiration. Motivation is when you see Passion and Desire flow through your body, if you cannot then go back and start again. You can only effectively act if you are submerged in a bed of related ideas. Ideas comes from Aspiration. Aspiration is about your collective goals built up over the years, some active and others dormant.  Why your goals generally float around your imagination is that we lack true passion and desire to pursue them. You got to follow the rules. Start to LOVE, reach for INSPIRATION, spur MOTIVATION into action, gather your IDEAS and then develop TOLERANCE. Tolerance is needed in every aspect of life, the farmer knows this and caters for adverse setbacks. The Commuter is aware of this too and allocates plan A or B as a backup. You simply need to be tolerant. You need to be patient when the harvest is slow, you need to be accepting when the trains are delayed. Dear Friends, with true passion and desire is within you only then will you appreciate the value of your life. You will want to live on and on for years to come. Therefore, Longevity and Eternity are your ultimate goals. Longevity ensures that you live onto the full duration of your centennial life on Earth. Eternity carries you from one galaxy to another in different time zones and in different circumstances to suit your needs. Once you established all of these keywords in the right sequence you would have found your success. It is very hard to say that I am successful or that you are successful. Success is not merited according to one’s finances but rather to one’s goals. If you reached the rung of success step by step you will know that you have found it because your success will be measured by your serenity. A person without a single possession could deem himself or herself successful.  A Hare Krishna Devotee as an example will easily say that he or she is successful because they have found their serenity. Serenity is that tranquillity where you are in tune with nature, where you are elevated into the realms of Creation. You can switch off from the material world and float into a spiritual one endowing yourself with wisdom and knowledge. Follow the rules in the right sequence and you shall reach your destination with the least amount of problems. Have a wonderful Friday, you really deserve it.

AMBITION

AMBITION

Quote of the day

‘AMBITION is such a powerful word that if recited each day will initiate an action plan to make you develop your eagerness in any subject matter. The word AMBITION holds 8 keywords to help you: These words are Affirmation, Motivation, Balance, Inspiration, Tolerance, Invigoration, Opportunities and Niceties.’

Welcome to the 2^nd day of your working week. Today is a real scorcher, although it may seem like a real torture look at it also as a refresher. Refreshers are good because they energise you to have AMBITION. AMBITION is our theme for today. AMBITION holds 8 keywords to help you in hot or cold conditions. It is a stimulant to make you magnificent. These 8 keywords are Affirmation, Motivation, Balance, Inspiration, Tolerance, Invigoration, Opportunities and Niceties. Affirmation is the ability to confirm that you really need to achieve something rather than dream about achieving it. Dreaming is the parallel of an ambition. It builds a picture or vision of what it is like to achieve something but stops there. Taking action is usually difficult. This is where you need Motivation. Motivation is that special stimulus to kick-start you to take action. Action is motion, impetus sets you in motion. To determine that your motion is controlled you need Balance. Some of us move too quickly and end up feeling exhausted and lacking energy or impetus. You need to balance a dream and an action.  In a dream you conjure up relevant images relating to a goal and edit it in a relevant fashion to create something worth pursuing. Action is about taking the necessary strides to achieve your goal. You cannot take action if your dream is not clear.  Your dream creates a vision. Your next dream is about revision of your ambition. To take action you need the right provisions and the right decisions. To create a perfect balance between a dream and an action plan you need Inspiration like what you are reading. Inspiration takes your dream and equates it with an action plan. To get the ball in motion you need the right Inspiration from the right person. What follows is Tolerance. Nothing will glide smoothly because inhibitions in life always waits for you to distract you rather than attract you. Distractions will always fumble your actions. You need to be tolerant, to do this effectively you need to walk a path of vigilance. Invigoration is a much needed tool to fulfil your ambition. Invigoration is about refreshing your mind, body and soul regularly. I always say eat well, drink substantial amounts of water, exercise regularly and read to be inspired daily. This is an invigorating course that we all should partake in. A special article on Invigoration will follow soon. Always remember that there are opportunities for all in the vastness of the Cosmos. What is crucial to remember is that if something fails don’t despair. Never despair but simply repair your dream by starting all over again. Refine your dream to take care of contingencies.  Niceties in life make all the difference. As we learn we earn vital strategic points in life which we should use to amend or append our goals. Ambitions are a circle of events, starting form a dream and ending in an accomplishment only to resume as another dream. Have a wonderful day under the umbrella of a much awaited summer’s day. With love and best wishes from your eternal friend, Anthony.

The Resistance Gauge

The Resistance Gauge

Quote of the day

‘Resistance is your forbearance to constant intimidation. It is your tolerance to common adversities in life. It is your endurance to continue despite the desire to discontinue. It is a personal challenge in your life attached to a timeframe that suits you. Finally, it is your opposition to temptation. As you develop your resistance you can see openly your strength increasing. This visualisation is called The Resistance Gauge.’

No one knows exactly what resistance is until they need to develop it. To understand resistance, we need to understand Ohm’s Law.

Ohm’s Law

‘The current passing through an electric wire at constant temperature is proportional to the potential difference on either ends of the wire.’

Current is the flow of electricity around a conductor. Current or electricity cannot flow across a non-conductor. A conductor could be a piece of copper wire and a non-conductor could be a piece of wood. If I put an obstacle in the way of a conductor like a resistor I can actually slow down the flow of electricity across that conductor. The greater the value of my resistance the slower is the flow of electricity in that conductor. Dimmer switches at home are classic examples of everyday resistors that we use. As we lower the resistance of the dimmer switch the brighter the light becomes and conversely as we increase the resistance the dimmer the light becomes. Our journey in life is like a flow of electricity around a piece of wire. I want you to imagine this piece of as long as 100 years. Our starting point in the conductor of life is at birth. Life is really wonderful however along our journey we encounter resistances that tend to slow us down or stop us in our track. To overcome these resistances, I want you to develop with my help the counterforces needed to overcome these obstacles. Forbearance is one of them. Forbearance teaches you about patience and self-control when a resistor holding a value called intimidation stops you. Intimidation will always be there. I once thought that when I left school I would leave behind the horrid tragedies of bullying. Unfortunately bullying exists everywhere. It exists in the squalors of life and in it exists in the luxuries of life. The next counterforce is called Tolerance. Tolerance is about being open-minded about the little things in life and the bigger things in life. It is about becoming less emotional and more controllable. It is about letting bygones be bygones. It is about maintaining a strong mind-set without getting upset. The next counterforce is Endurance which is your staying power. Your stamina is your phenomenon that defines you and refines you. Your next counterforce is opposition. Opposition is your mission and ambition in life. It is your earthly mission to say no to temptation. It is also your ambition to overcome the diversity of temptation. Temptation started in the Garden of Eden. Like Ivy it is has weaved itself into the tapestry of life. You cannot recognise it because it looks normal. You cannot see it because it is camouflaged. You cannot feel it even though it is omnipresent. Opposition is your resistance to overcome the adversities of life from the puddle in the street to the muddle in the sidewalks. I want you to determine your resistance as of today and slowly increase it during the rest of 2016. We need to move up along the Resistance Gauge. As we bid farewell to a wonderful month in May I want you to reflect on the last 31 articles and use it as your foundation to create a strong resistance. Join me tomorrow at the crack of dawn as we welcome a new month into our lives, I call it the month of Selectivity.

Character Harmonisation

Character Harmonisation

Quote of the day

‘Character Harmonisation Adds Real And Creative Touches Every Representation.’

Good day to you and welcome to another day in another week and in another month of another year in a new life on planet Earth. Yes, indeed it is a new life when you want to start all over again. Some people in their next life they would like to do this or that. I say onto you and verily too you are alive and you have a life and the ability to do anything that your heart desires. If it is real, it will become real. If it is unselfish it will materialise. If you have passion and desire nothing is impossible. Character Harmonisation helps. Character Harmonisation is the ability to piece together or coordinate essential qualities that makes you likeable. What are these qualities that the world is looking for? Temperament is one of them. Personality is another. Strength is a must and tolerance is a necessity. Integrity is good, Love is even better. Originality is a quality that people like. Harmonise these words together and you will have the PISTOL to fire and the Character to be admired by. PISTOL stands for Personality, Integrity, Strength, Tolerance, Originality and Love. PISTOL is another keyword to add to your list of keywords. Personality is ones Persona that the world sees. It is visible and it is powerful. It is visible because you can see it. It is powerful because it can affect someone. A good Personality has a good effect on someone whereas a bad Personality as a bad effect. Every day when you present yourself to the world you need to be real and creative. I say real because I want you to be real on the inside as well as on the outside. It does not make real sense to smile at someone but deep inside you despise them. You must love someone genuinely. Integrity is one’s honesty. You need to speak the truth and you need to be truthful to yourself. Can you see the harmonisation? It is all about coordinating keywords to create a melody of joy and happiness? You cannot be half baked, you have to coordinate keywords to become fully baked. Strength is needed to sustain, maintain and contain your daily deeds. Doing good for the moment is not sufficient, you need to be good at all times. Strength is essential to perform this. Strength is not only about muscle strength but the mentality to strengthen you muscles. Good food creates good moods. It builds your strength and it maintains your temperament. You cannot snap at someone for no reason. Neither can you be nice for the moment. Your smile must echo from your heart. You need to be genuine. You need to be Real and Creative. Tolerance is a vital tool to survive. If you turn a blind eye or look over your shoulder people will admire you for your tolerance. They will see you as a fine example. They will like your Originality. They will admire your creativity. They will understand you a lot better. Finally, you have to exhibit love from the bottom of your heart. Love is tender and so are you. Love is pure and so are you. Love is divine and so are you. Love is eternal and so are you. Love is fragrant and so are you. Have a wonderful evening and I look forward to seeing you tomorrow.

The TRUTH

The TRUTH

The final Friday of February is here. February will soon fade away into the history of man made up of good things and regretfully bad things. Yesterday we spoke about Destinations, the ultimate Diary and how your contributions to life can be recorded for others to read and learn.

Bonus Quote

‘Every good deed you do instils a seed of hope in another person, this then proliferates into more seeds until the valley of despair is overthrown with care, inundated with fresh air and becomes a house of silent prayer.’

To end this wonderful month of positivity I include four marvelous articles for you to read. Not necessarily in order they are as follows: 1. The TRUTH. 2. Guidelines with defined SIGNS. 3. My Goals for 2016. 4. The Modern Day Trilogy. Dear Friends I hope and pray that you enjoyed reading 25 riveting articles on positivity during the month of February. It was a pleasure writing them especially when you know that friends are reading them. At random I chose to write an article called ‘The TRUTH’ for your perusal and for the magnification of your positivity. Without The TRUTH there could never be Positivity. Positivity is energy and in order to keep this energy alive we need The TRUTH. 

Quote of the day

The TRUTH is about Trust, Respect, Understanding, Tolerance and Honesty. Take away any one of these 5 vital qualities in any human being and you will dismantle the stability of mankind. Already history has shown a clear distinction between the stability and the instability in mankind.’

It is great to be here on the last day of our working week envisaging the possibilities of tomorrow, our 48 hours of personal relaxation. I chose the write about this article today because without The TRUTH there is instability at the top of the pyramid of sanity, right down to the base of insanity. The TRUTH divulges 5 important humane words that often go by unnoticed. The 1st word is Trust. Trust Almighty GOD and you will understand what Trust means. Where else can you find a friend as wonderful as Almighty GOD. GOD is good and so are you if you are willing to care, share and remain fair for the rest of your earthling life. GOD gives life and love, therefore we need to solemnly live to love and love to live with confidence and belief. The 2nd word is Respect. Respect is the admiration of all living organisms from city to city and from country to country. Respect is awe, wonder, admiration, splendour and grandeur on a mammoth scale. As you give respect you will get it back tenfold. Live to respect and respect to live. Respect a child and that child shall learn to respect you and the rest of the world. Respect an elder and they will give you wisdom. Respect your wife and she will give you joy and happiness. The 3rd word is Understanding. Understanding is about being thoughtful in any given situation. It is about being kind to every nation. It is about being appreciative to every creation. It is about being supportive in every relationship. It is about being aware in every causation. It is about considerate in every litigation. It is about being sympathetic in every devastation. The 4th word is Tolerance. Tolerance is the Science of Self-Realisation. Sometimes we may need to taste the bitterness of life in order to appreciate the sweetness of it. Tolerance enables you to do just that. Tolerance plays a critical role in how events turn out. Exercise Tolerance and you shall receive the applause of the nation. Exercise tolerance and you shall inherit nurturance. The final word is Honesty. Honesty is about speaking, thinking and writing the Truth. Honesty is like divinity. Exercise Honesty and you shall have a feel of the nature of The Heavens. Exercise Honesty and you shall inherit the entire population. Exercise Honesty and you shall inherit the earth without fear and without subjugation. Honesty is the best policy. The TRUTH will carry you onto journeys in life that are beyond your imagination. Life is an adventure, love it and live it. Live it and enjoy it especially over the weekends. With love and best wishes from your eternal friend, Anthony

PATIENCE

Quote of the day

‘Patience And Tolerance Incites Enlightening New Concepts Every day.’

Tomorrow sees the start to a new working week for us all. To many there will be sadness, to some there will be gladness and to others there will be almost madness. All our daily activates seem to stem from two words called Dollars and Cents. If you don’t have it you are sad, if you have it you are glad and if you greedy to get more and more then you are mad. I say onto you and verily too be grateful for your life and for your presence on planet Earth. Consider your health first and your wealth will take care of itself. I say this vehemently because without good health you cannot manufacture wealth. Patience makes you understand that everything in life takes time. Time is important from a simple second to a long and trying 100 years. There is so much you can do productively and effectively in 100 years if you have Patience by your side. A meritocratic Goal Setter will also understand that Tolerance is equally important. Add the two together and you have the prefect mode to keep you spirited for the rest of your life. Patience is the staying power that keeps your dreams alive and your goals in momentum. With patience a meritocratic Goal Setter understands fully that any concept no matter how big or small takes times. Tolerance is about being open-minded in all your daily tasks knowing well that in life there will be the usual ups and the downs. Add the two together and you have enlightenment. It is like lighting a candle. Without a match there is no ignition. Without the candle there is no light. You need Patience and Tolerance to incite Enlightenment. With enlightenment your ideas become doable, usable, viable and renewable. I want you to wake up tomorrow morning with a dose of patience and tolerance. So, if the train is late I want you to expect that and find an alternative mode of transport. If someone brushes you on the street ignore it and move on. Be alert and vigilant to avoid a similar confrontation. Keep your mind active each second of your day. Be like a professional driver that has his or her responsibilities at the forefront of their job. Be glad rather than sad and certainly don’t become mad. The use of the word mad in this article implies becoming angry when things don’t work out as per your agenda.

Change takes time

Change takes time

Quote of the day

‘Changes takes time, time effects changes in you. What you think is what manifests. What you say is always remembered. What you do has a profound effect on the next second.’

If only I could turn back time I would understand how impatient I was all those years ago when suffering, torment and anguish was a constant repetition in my life. Impatience does lead to impulsiveness and has certainly made me become impulsive. Impatience leads to haste and as I look back into the archives of my life I can see so clearly the hastiness of my actions that often led to a distasteful reaction. Today I want to ensure that the foundation of my future is set in a concrete churned with patience, endurance and tolerance to ensure that I do not replicate the past inferences of my doings. I need to learn from nature about the flora and fauna and how they survive. I need to understand how animals live such as the birds and the bees. I need to grasp the rudiments of life to experience a more worldly life. I need to set goals that are unselfish and to learn to achieve them over a period of time. I need to understand the concept of change and to understand that I need to define the word change in a clearer tone. Change can best described as a modification of ones self into a lifestyle that is better, sweeter, happier and purposeful. A better lifestyle ensures that you always remain safe, secure and fecund. A sweeter lifestyle makes you gentle, kind and understanding. A happier lifestyle removes the miseries associated with your daily grind. A purposeful lifestyle makes you understand that you are here for a purpose and that purpose is to serve our Heavenly Father with sincerity 24/7. Dear Friends, in order to see an overall change we need to affect an individual change within us. We also need to understand that changes do not happen overnight. Every day in your worldly life marks a change. Your hair grows and so does your nails. Your cells duplicate and your mind replicates. What you say is always remembered, so why not say the right thing and await the response that you deserve. What you think is certainly what manifests. So, think big and you shall be big. Think success and you shall succeed. What you do certainly has a profound effect on the next second. A good deed done in this instance instils a seed of hope in the next instance. Planning is crucial to your overall success. Your life needs a plan of action inherited from your plan of thoughts. If your thoughts are unselfish it is very likely that you shall inherit the fortunes of life. You just need patience linked to a crucial aspect of The Creation and that is TIME. If only change could happen immediately it would be nice. It would be nice to become financially independent overnight.  It would be nice to lose weight overnight. It would be nice to move into a new home overnight.  What then would be the point of living to 100 years of age? Life is about experiences, triumphs, mistakes, improvements, edification and glorification. All of these take time and like the pollination of the plants and the gestation period of the elephant everything does takes times.  Dear Friends don't fear the outcome of your unselfish intent. Fear not for it shall manifest in precisely the way you thought about it.  Just give it time, and enjoy the benefits of change. A seed changes the very second you sow it into the ground. Does it sprout through the soil overnight? Does it yield the blossom of our Earth in an instance? You need to be patient to see changes within you. You need to appreciate increment changes in your life as well. Exercise patience and you shall inherit anything that you want. Lay your future on a strong foundation and always be alert and vigilant in every given instance.

A Day in your Life

A Day in your Life

Quote of the day

 ‘Every curtain that opens for you is a personal performance merited by the ones that watch it. Today is a day in your life. Will your performance be applauded by those that watch, observe and criticise you?’

As we watch over others little do we realise that we are also been observed, criticised, analysed and assessed by an audience of 7 billion. What makes a man or a woman great is how they perform their daily tasks in front of an audience of over 7 billion people. Once we depart from the comfort of our domain we are exposed to criticism, activism, cynicism or even romanticism. We are now actors in a world of actors performing our roles selfishly or unselfishly. A Meritocratic Goal Setter of which you are identifies their role in a world teeming with individuals of varying roles. They then aim to perform such a role unselfishly. Today you maybe a student, tomorrow you may become an employee or an employer, the next day you may become married, in a few years’ time you will become a parent and later on a grandparent. Our roles are constantly changing by identification but we still remain actors in front of an audience of 7 billion people. Success in life is about leaving behind a legacy of good deeds for others to follow. Success in life is to perform your role according to your decree to the best of your ability. You need to exercise Patience, Endurance and Tolerance. Do you remember when we spoke about the acronym PET in an earlier article? You need to be a PET. Patience is about Self-Control, to administer your moods in the presence of an audience that watches over you. Endurance is your fortitude over the aggression you may face over the criticism and cynicism that will always come your way. Tolerance is about not being narrow-minded in front of an audience that stares at you from dawn to dusk. A Day in your Life is a repetition of daily roles assigned to you, written by you and enacted by yourself. When your front door opens the curtain to your daily performance begins. Although you do not expect an applause by the end of your shift you certainly do not want the rotten apples that come with it. Dear Friends, always remember that once you open your front door you actually opening the curtain to your overall performance. You are interacting amongst a population of over 7 billion people. Interaction between people delivers one of two things, attraction or distraction. Attraction makes you full of charm, appealing and desirable. Distraction creates confusion, a source of annoyance and a sense of trouble. If you are not ready to act your role then perhaps you should not open your front door. Plan ahead, envisage tomorrow based on today’s performance. Become a critic of your own performance and look at your weaknesses and your strengths. Decide on how you can improve your day. Polish your act, don’t live to criticise someone but live to analyse yourself.

Don't dismay in the month of May 2015

‘Don’t dismay in May’

Quote of the day

‘Don’t dismay in the month of May 2015, be gay and pray to be okay and to have a good day for the next 30 days. Obey your written instructions every working day and let the weekends be your time to play.’

White Rabbit! White Rabbit! White Rabbit! Welcome to May 2015 and farewell to a wonderful month in April where we cultivated positivity from a tiny seed of hope to a flamboyant bed of bloom, spark and added life. . Dear Friends, it is so wonderful to embrace a new month that is so coveted in absolute delight which also follows a fruitful month in April to remain positive. In one sense you could say that you planted the seeds of positivity in April and now it’s time to witness the growth of your success in May. Many a success story will highlight the rigorous approach to their steady growth over painstaking hours of endurance, tolerance and patience. Like a seed that similarly encounters many obstacles along it growth cycle Success for many is like that. You have to have endurance, tolerance and patience before your full bloom is seen. You cannot feel a speckle of dismay in you. You cannot be disappointed with the outcome of yesterday knowing that you have today to improve on any errors that you made. You cannot be stalled in your track by an unforeseen shockwave that come in front of you, you need to preserve wholeheartedly and believe in your principles and ideologies. You cannot fall to pieces at the appearance of consternation which could appear in all shapes and sizes right in front of your very eyes. You cannot feel apprehension over common intimidation or harassment. You cannot panic when your agenda is not fulfilled or accomplished. There is no room for sadness or madness when gladness is a better choice for you. You cannot slumber into a bout of depression if the curtains fall. You have to carry on with the will to continue. You need to remain positive all the way from dawn to dusk, 24/7. You have to, you have time at your side to make amends and alterations to the day ahead and for the rest of your life. I say onto you and verily too, don’t dismay in the month of May 2015, be gay and pray to be okay and to have a good day for the next 30 days. Obey your written instructions every single working day and let the weekends be your time to play. The use of the word play implies in this instance to have fun, to enjoy yourself and to recover from the rigorous workout of the previous working week. Remember exercise the concept of PET, discussed in a previous article. PET stands for Patience, Endurance and Tolerance.
