24 Things To Always Remember…and One Thing To Never Forget

Your presence is a present to the world.
You’re unique and one of a kind.
Your life can be what you want it to be.

Take the days just one at a time. 

Count your blessings, not your troubles.
You’ll make it through whatever comes along.

Within you are so many answers.

Understand, have courage, be strong. 

Don’t put limits on yourself.

So many dreams are waiting to be realized.
Decisions are too important to leave to chance.

Reach for your peak, your goal, your prize. 

Nothing wastes more energy than worrying.
The longer one carries a problem, the heavier it gets.

Don’t take things too seriously.

Live a life of serenity, not a life of regrets. 

Remember that a little love goes a long way.
Remember that a lot… goes forever.

Remember that friendship is a wise investment.
Life’s treasures are people… together. 

Realize that it’s never too late.

Do ordinary things in an extraordinary way.

Have health and hope and happiness.
Take the time to wish upon a star. 

And don’t ever forget…
for even a day… how very SPECIAL you are.

Winner vs Loser
  by: Author Unknown, Source Unknown 

The Winner is always part of the answer;
The Loser is always part of the problem.

The Winner always has a program;
The Loser always has an excuse.

The Winner says,"Let me do it for you;
The Loser says;" That is not my job."

The Winner sees an answer for every problem;
The Loser sees a problem for every answer.

The Winner says," It may be difficult but it is possible";
The Loser says,"It may be possible but it is too difficult."

When a Winner makes a mistake, he says," I was wrong";
When a Loser makes a mistake, he says," It wasn't my fault."

A Winner makes commitments;
A Loser makes promises.

Winners have dreams;
Losers have schemes.

Winners say," I must do something";
Losers say,"Something must be done."

Winners are a part of the team;
Losers are apart from the team.

Winners see the gain;
Losers see the pain.

Winners see possibilities;
Losers see problems.

Winners believe in win/win (win-win); Losers believe for them to win, someone has to lose.

Winners see the potential;
Losers see the past.

Winners are like a thermostat;
Losers are like thermometers.

Winners choose what they say;
Losers say what they choose.

Winners use hard arguments but soft words;
Losers use soft arguments but hard words.

Winners stand firm on values but compromise on petty things;
Losers stand firm on petty things but compromise on values.

Winners follow the philosophy of empathy: "Don't do to others what you
would, not want them to do to you";
Losers follow the philosophy, "Do it to others before they do it to you."

Winners make it happen;
Losers let it happen.

Still keeping silence? Just go ahead...

Martin Niemoeller... 

his powerful statement about the failure of Germans to speak out against the Nazis:

“First they came for the Communists, but I was not a Communist so I did not speak out. Then they came for the Socialists and the Trade Unionists, but I was neither, so I did not speak out. Then they came for the Jews, but I was not a Jew so I did not speak out. And when they came for me, there was no one left to speak out for me.”
