When asked the question, what is consciousness? we become conscious of consciousness.
And it is this consciousness of consciousness that we take to be consciousness.
This is wrong.

~1~   Life is a foreign language:  all men mispronounce it
~2~  Here is a test to find out whether your mission in life is complete.
         If you're alive, it isn't.
~3~  You must be the change you wish to see in the world

What we suppose to be is dictated by what we suppose to do hence your goal will always determine the right direction to play.


Many people enter into marriage with high expectation but with low preparation. Wedding is for a day while Marriage is for a lifetime. Never mistake wedding as marriage!

Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success.

I have these to say about Contentment;

" The secret to contentment does not lie in adding to a man's possessions, but rather in taking away from his desires"

" Contentment makes poor men rich, discontentment makes rich men poor"

" Money is a universal passport to everywhere except heaven and to everything except joy"

Are you a chronic procrastinator and always finding it difficult to initiate an action? Please listen to these;

"Nothing will ever be attempted if all possible objections must first be overcome"

"He who deliberates fully before taking a step will spent his entire life on one leg"

"These are procrastinators at their best; they did nothing in particular and did it very well"

These will help your attitudes and also help you understand the attitudes of others;

"The greatest generational discovery in life is that human beings can alter his life by altering his attitudes"

"Attitudes are internal feelings or assumptions that express themselves in our outward responses and behaviours"

"Your outward responses often communicate what you are thinking inside"

"Your attitude towards something makes all the difference in how you see it and respond to it"

Greatness is not a state, a title or a position you occupy but it is a process.

Greatness is the way you live your life. Long before David became king in Israel, while he was still a shepherd boy in the bush, he was described as “…a mighty valiant man, and a man of war, and prudent in matters, and a comely person, and the LORD is with him”

“If you were all alone in the universe with no one to talk to, no one with which to share the beauty of the stars, to laugh with, to touch, what would be your purpose in life? It is other life, it is love, which gives your life meaning. This is harmony. We must discover the joy of each other, the joy of challenge, the joy of growth.”

 “Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos into order, confusion into clarity, It turns problems into gifts, failures into success, the unexpected into perfect timing, and mistakes into important events. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow.”
