Passoin::To raise the bar



Passion means zeal, enthusiasm or fervor.
It is the force that relentlessly drives one forward.
It is a burning desire that creates commitment to a person, project or life.

A passionate life is more than a philosophy, it is a lifestyle chosen deliberately, designed purposefully and lived responsibly.
It is RAISING THE BAR on what we intend to accomplish.
It is moving through each storm of lyf without hesitation and arriving in the sunshine wiser and stronger.
It is continuously learning, loving and growing.

A passionate life is an inspiring gift that can brighten the world for many generations.
A world without passion is a world without Mother Teresa.

Passion has magical powers that can bring the non existent into existence.
For example, Walt Disney, who used to be afraid of mouse, with his passion helped him transform his dream of Disneyland into reality.
Another magical quality of of passion is; its ability to lighten our load.
Work becomes fun! Tedious effort becomes exciting!...

PASSION IS POWER
The doors that are locked for ordinary folks suddenly open for those with passion..
If the doors still remained shut, the fire of their passio would burn them down!!

Because
Those those with pasion are focused on their goals, not themselves.
They are wrapped up in their dreams, not their worries.
They don't have the time or inclination for self-pity.
When things go wrong, they learn from their mistakes and quickly continue on their way.....

Whenever it is a matter of ability or passion;
Passion is always the victor in the battle for success.

Therfore

Bring passion to focus on your goal, and make its effective use by applying your passion to your goal, job, profession, family or on yourself;you will see the difference between "just getting by" and "real success".





Throughout most of human history, we have been acustomed to evolution and improvement; the process may have been sometime slower or sometime faster but it almost always seemed to be progressive.
Continually improving capabilities can be called the name to the game of life.

There has always been scope for improvements and what's better than improving oneself??
It has been aptly quoted "Unless you try to do something beyond what you have mastered, you will never grow."

That implies "The future belongs to the competent." it belong to those who are very good at what they do, rather who are best ...

Thus to be on top of the world we must continually add to our knowledge and ability and keep on raising the bar to keep on building our mental assets...

Who makes whom

Habit is an action or series of actions that we perform in a subconscious manner.
We don't have to continuously think about doing these things, they seem to happen on their own.

Since all of the things under the sun fall just under two types, thus habits can also be good or bad.
Good habits serve us and bad habits cause us untold sufferings.
Good habits enhance the quality of life, while bad ones detract life.
Cultivating good habits is difficult but it is more difficult to maintain bad habits.

We all have a mix of good and bad habits.
Most of us admit to having some habits; that we wish we, we didn't have.

Ask yourself honestly.
Are your habits helping or hindering you?
What habits have consistently brought rewards to your personal life or career?
What habits could you adopt today that could have positive impact on your future?

I say "We first make habits, and then habits make us."

Life is not pausing for you while you are putting up with some habits that you dislike or that affects you adversely. Life is passing by while you waste it doing the wrong thing. There is no rewind button, there is only now and if you are not happy with your now, CHANGE IT...
acquiring new habit begin with a decision and a commitment. Change is difficult.
When trying to break out from bonds of bad habits; tests, trials and temptations come.
Setbacks occur.
Don't give up when you slip and fall as bruises would be lesser than that; if not given up.
Be sure to create the mental habit of gentleness with yourself.
It is important to have patience with thyself, while working on changing habits.
Some strong bad habits may take years to break.

Research has shown that an action that is repeated for a minimum of 21 days is likely to become a permanent habit.
That means you must perform your new actions repeatedly day after day, before your subconscious mind will begin to do them automatically.

Until then it takes consistent effort and focus...
