SOME ADVICES FOR PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT

Post by John.Apostolidis »

TO BE SUCCESSFUL MEANS....

1) TO LAUGH OFTEN AND ENOUGH.
2) TO HAVE THE RESPECT OF THE WISE PEOPLE AND SMALL CHILDREN.
3) TO OVERCOME THE BETRAYAL OF FAKE FRIENDS.
4) TO HAVE THE ABILITY TO FIND THE BEST QUALITIES INTO OTHERS.
5) TO HAVE THE ABILITY TO FIND THE BEAUTY INTO THE UGLINESS.
6) TO KNOW THAT EVEN ONE LIFE HAS BREATHE EASIER BECAUSE YOU
LIVED....

...THAT MEANS TO BE SUCCESSFUL

SOME ADVICES FOR PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT (a parabolic story)

Post by John.Apostolidis »

Once upon at time, there was a father who had a young son.
He had just returned back home, from his job and his was very very tired... the only thing he had in mind was a good meal and his bed, and nothing else.

His son run into his arms to welcome his father and asked : " Daddy will you play with me, I was waiting for you to come and play with me all day long...."

That was something the father wanted to avoid, he had other plans in mind.....food and some rest....
So he started to think ways, how to avoid the playtime with his son.

On the opposite wall there was a big world map made from paper... And a great idea came up in his mind!

He took the scissors and cut the map into many small pieces, and asked his son : Son by the time you connect all these pieces and have this map made as it was on the wall, I will play with you as much as you want!"
....and he took his meal to the bedroom, relaxed because this map was big and the pieces too many, and the kid will need many hours to re-make it....

After half an hour the son went to his father and said: "Hey dad I made the map as it was, like you said, come on lets play!"

The father couldn't believe to his eyes the map was indeed fixed!!!
" Son how did you made this so fast anyway?!!!"

And the son answered : " Dad it was very easy.... on the other side of the map...was a human, and by fixing the human I re-made all the world!"


IF WE WANT TO CHANGE THE REALITY...
IF WE WANT TO CHANGE THE WORLD...
IF WE WANT TO CHANGE THE OTHERS...

...WE HAVE TO CHANGE OUR SELVES!

THINGS TO CHANGE, YOU HAVE TO CHANGE!
