1) The wisest phrase uttered: "I don't know."
Knowing the boundaries of what you can and can’t do is knowing who you are. Admitting to others there these boundaries are is a sign of this self-awareness, of humility, and of a willingness to listen and to learn. It takes courage to admit to others that you don’t know the answer – but it is that same courage that can fuel so many other wonderful things. The courage to let others show you the way. The
courage to be creative. The courage to take risks. The courage to fail and to get up and try again. If you know who you are and what you can do today, then you will also know what you have the potential to do tomorrow. Know what you don’t know.
2) The most admirable attitude: "Stay hungry."
Unpredictability. One thing holds true every day: that something we don’t know about in advance might happen to our customers. It is important to have a passion for helping others. When we put the extra effort, it matters.
3) The most innovative thinking: break your assumptions.
Our industry changes fast. To do the same underlying assumptions year after year is a dangerous place to be – those assumptions, however, good they were at one point in time can be the complete opposite down the road. Don’t stick to past principles and operating models, even if they were right before. Don’t keep doing things the same way over and over again if it isn’t relevant to our direction anymore. Keep questioning yourself. Am I doing this today because I have always done it that way? Am I making this decision because it has always worked well for me in the past? Does the result of my action further our direction? At the end of the day, we are all here to feel good to ourselves. And that means creating value – for everyone. To create unique value, you need to understand the reason why you are living in this world.
Ask the questions “Did I create value today? Are the things I’m about to do today aligned with our Gods vision and mission?” If not, don’t do it. If so, keep doing it.
Be willing to let go of what you’ve known or done in the past, and open yourself up to new ways of thinking, new assumptions, new challenges, and new possibilities.
The true spirit is to know who you are, to set aside your ego, to have the courage to be creative and the courage to fail. If your intentions are pure and your actions
aligned with our direction, you will quickly learn that if you fall, you will easily find compassion and a helping hand from others around you.

I will persist until I succeed
I reject the fact that you don't like me anymore
Or is that something only in my mind?
I know that I never been a special person from start
Am I pushing myself to you
I never ask if you like me as well
I just asked if I can be a close person to you
I thought it is a good start
But since then I feel that you do not want to see nor hear anything from me
I tried my best to get in touch with you
I always pray that I can receive a single reply from you
I told myself that you are just busy
But days go by and it seems that you totally rejected me
I do not want to give up
I always believe that one day I can hear response from you
I do not want to give up
I will persist until I succeed
Or is that something only in my mind?
I know that I never been a special person from start

I never ask if you like me as well

I Could Sing Of Your Love Forever
Over the mountains and the sea,
Your river runs with love for me,
and I will open up my heart
and let the Healer set me free.
I'm happy to be in the truth,
and I will daily lift my hands:
for I will always sing of when
Your love came down. [Yeah!]
I could sing of Your love forever,
I could sing of Your love forever,
I could sing of Your love forever,
I could sing of Your love forever. [Repeat]
Oh, I feel like dancing -
it's foolishness I know;
but, when the world has seen the light,
they will dance with joy,
like we're dancing now.

Decision making
I am very slow when it comes to decision making. I weigh things and situations so most of the time I become the last person. Though I cannot say that my decision is always right it is something I never regret because I decided to go for it. But the problem is the time I spent before finalizing my decision. I do not have all the time in life before making decision, I know that. That is my problem. There are situations that needs a quick decision.
Example, a friend of mine made me realize that if in point in time you relaize that you have a special feeling to someone you better have to tell it or else you will regret it for the rest of your life.
From my past experience, I had waited a lot of time waiting for someone, waiting for the right time and for the right place. Because of too much waiting, too much thinking and weighing things I lost my chance to show my true feelings.
So now, I decided to change. I have to do it. I have to be as open as possible. Just believe. If someone will get hurt-let it be. This will make me realize if I am doing the right thing or the bad thing. But then again, I cannot force everyone to be on my side. So, decide now or regret for the rest of your life. Try, there is no wrong in trying. Go go go.... This is my first step... Gud luck to me...

Quotes to Ponder
I started reading the book "The Greatest Salesman in the World" by Og Mandino and so far it is one of the gretatest book I ever read. Life lesson to keep, it says that "Failures will never overtake me if my determination to succeed is strong enough." Which I strongly agree. One time when I attended a Management training they ask for my tag line. The first thing that comes in my mind "I will survive no matter what happens to me- I will and will continue to survive". In short "I will survive".
For the past years, I overcome a lot of trials in life. Most of the times I fail in everything I do. I never get something without loosing a lot of energy and time. But it is worthy when I achieve something because of my patience and determination to win.
I know that if a person just believe in himself, have faith that everything will be ok, whatever situations you are right now, just keep on believing and doing what is right. For at the end you will win this battle. Just keep on standing still. God will never let us down because He never will.
