One step for a life to enjoy its every moment with a smile

LIFE

Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they

were meant to be there, to serve some sort of purpose, teach you a

lesson, or to help you figure out who you are or who you want to

become.



You never know who these people may be – a roommate, a neighbor, a

professor, a friend, a lover, or even a complete stranger – but when

you lock eyes with them, you know at that very moment they will affect

your life in some profound way.



Sometimes things happen to you that may seem horrible, painful, and

unfair at first, but in reflection you find that without overcoming

those obstacles you would have never realized your potential,

strength, willpower, or heart.



Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness, and sheer

stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul. Without these

small tests, whatever they may be, life would be like a smoothly paved

straight flat road to nowhere. It would be safe and comfortable, but

dull and utterly pointless.



The people you meet who affect your life, and the success and

downfalls you experience, help to create who you are and who you

become. Even the bad experiences can be learned from. In fact, they

are sometimes the most important ones.



If someone loves you, give love back to them in whatever way you can,

not only because they love you, but because in a way, they are

teaching you to love and how to open your heart and eyes to things.



If someone hurts you, betrays you, or breaks your heart, forgive them,

for they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being

cautious to whom you open your heart.



Make every day count. Appreciate every moment and take from those

moments everything that you possibly can for you may never be able to

experience it again. Talk to people that you have never talked to

before, and listen to what they have to say.



Let yourself fall in love, break free, and set your sights high. Hold

your head up because you have every right to. Tell yourself you are a

great individual and believe in yourself, for if you don’t believe in

yourself, it will be hard for others to believe in you.



You can make anything you wish of your life. Create your own life and

then go out and live it with absolutely no regrets.



And if you love someone tell them, for you never know what tomorrow

may have in store.



Learn a lesson in life each day that you live!



Today is the tomorrow you were worried about yesterday.



Think About it? Was it worth it?

ENJOY YOUR LIFE AT EVERY MOMENT

Once a fisherman was sitting near seashore, under the shadow of a tree

smoking his beedi. Suddenly a rich businessman passing by approached

him and enquired as to why he was sitting under a tree smoking and not

working. To this the poor fisherman replied that he had caught enough

fishes for the day.



Hearing this the rich man got angry and said: Why don’t you catch more

fishes instead of sitting in shadow wasting your time?

Fisherman asked: What would I do by catching more fishes?

Businessman: You could catch more fishes, sell them and earn more

money, and buy a bigger boat.

Fisherman: What would I do then?

Businessman: You could go fishing in deep waters and catch even more

fishes and earn even more money.

Fisherman: What would I do then?

Businessman: You could buy many boats and employ many people to work

for you and earn even more money.

Fisherman: What would I do then?

Businessman: You could become a rich businessman like me.

Fisherman: What would I do then?

Businessman: You could then enjoy your life peacefully.

Fisherman: What do you think I’m doing right now?



MORAL – You don’t need to wait for tomorrow to be happy and enjoy your

life. You don’t even need to be more rich, more powerful to enjoy

life. LIFE is at this moment, enjoy it fully.



As some great men have said “My riches consist not in extent of my

possessions but in the fewness of my wants”.

ONE STEP

Foolish people with all their other thoughts, have this one too: They

are always getting ready to live, but never living.



Your success will start when you begin to pursue it. To reach your

goal or to attain success, you don’t need to know all of the answers

in advance. You just need to have a clear idea of what your goal is.



Don’t procrastinate when faced with difficult problems. Break your

problems into parts, and handle one part at a time.



Develop tendencies toward taking action. You can make something happen

right now. Divide your big plan into small steps and take that first

step right away.



Everyone who ever got where they are had to begin where they were.

Your big opportunity is where you are right now.



A journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. Take it.

A SMILE

A smile costs nothing, but gives much.



It enriches those who receive, without making poorer those who give.



It takes a moment, but the memory of it sometimes lasts forever.



None is so rich or mighty that he can get along without it, and none

is so poor, but that he can be made rich by it.



A smile creates happiness in the home, fosters good will in business,

and is the countersign of friendship.



It brings rest to the weary, cheer to the discouraged, sunshine to the

sad, and it is nature’s best antidote for trouble.



Yet it cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is

something that is of no value to anyone, until it is given away.



Some people are too tired to give you a smile;



Give them one of yours, as none needs a smile so much as he who has no

more to give.
