There Is No Tomorrow

Why postpone your life? Why delay your happiness and fulfillment. Why push till tomorrow what you can do today? How many things have you pushed to tomorrow? How many tomorrows have you got to do those things?

Wealth Is Mental …So Is Poverty

See yourself as a king; become a king. See yourself as a pauper; remain a pauper. It’s all about your state of mind. You see, life is but a just judge (in most cases), it hands over to people things in proportion to the magnitude of their expectations.

How to Blog Successfully

Choosing to make blogging your career because you want to escape a mundane job – forcing yourself to write about something that you’re not interested in is as torturous as the mundane job you are running away from!

How to Be Yourself

A Note to my Daughter
