We are back from Chinese New Year festival. Many suffered from post CNY damage ie. gain weight! Celebrations and holidays have come and go. I think it’s time for us to move forward in 2012 (and staying in shape *wink). We can still be happy by following healthy diet 
Daily Motivation Quote For Today:
Eat less and chew more. Talk less and work more.
A year just begins. And it means we are one year older! Are you old? Does age factor stop you from learning and eventually success? Nooooooo!
We may feel that we are too old when we compare with our younger competitors. Don’t compare with others, compare with yourself. You are your own greatest competitor.
Daily Motivation Quote For Today:
Actually I’m not old, it’s just that I was born earlier.
The word “learning” covers a big scope. It does not only mean learning a new course or a new skill for the job. We want to learn in personal life too. That might mean learning how to bring up your kids well and learning about personal finance. It could also involve learning skills that allow you to maintain your house without getting outside help.
3 Reasons Why You Should Continue Learning
Learning leads to an enriching life of self-fulfillment.
- Think about this. Each week, I’m learning new things – and this keeps me interested, motivated and happy. Lifelong learning helps us find meaning in our lives!
- If you take the time to consciously learn new things and stretching beyond comfort zone, you’ll find that you live life more deeply. Instead of chasing quick entertainment that fails to satisfy, can you study in your free time, perhaps by joining an evening class or discussion group that you’re interested in?
Learning Keeps You Healthy
- Our mental health is best protected when we use them. Older folk who carry on learning and who stay mentally active are much less likely to suffer from illnesses like Alzheimer’s disease.
- It is recommended to take the time to learn about food nutrition. That will let us know how to eat well by learning how to prepare and cook foods. A healthy lifestyle should include exercising regularly too. How about learning a new sport? And don’t forget to learn about good time management which can prevent us from developing stress-related illnesses.
Learning Puts You on the Right Track to Success
- The final reason to continuous learning is because that’s what great successful people do.
- It is impossible to say that we’ve learnt everything we need to know about running a business or about succeeding in career. Don’t just settle back and stop learning, otherwise you might lose out to competitors who have a passion for learning.
So what have you learnt today? What do you want to learn throughout this new year?
Sounds simple right? It is indeed. Very often we are occupied with daily stress, be it at work or at home, we may have forgotten to laugh at all.
Daily Laugh Quote For Today :
The most wasted day of all is that on which we have not laughed.
The old saying that ‘laughter is the best medicine‘ definitely appears to be true. From relaxing the muscles to promoting heart health, laughter is advantageous in all ways. Therefore, a good laugh is a great way to improve one’s mental and physical state of being.
The recommendation for a healthy lifestyle is to exercise, eat right and laugh a few times a day.
Laugh like Santa. Ho-ho-ho ! Being happy can be that simple
2012! Today is the final working day for most of us. Everyone is looking forward for another new year.
What a year! Before 2011 ends, let’s wrap up. What’s the top event that happened in 2011? What are the things which you have listed in resolution but undone? Have you created a new wish list for 2012?
This is how I create my resolution with a powerful formula of BE – DO – HAVE.
- Be passionate - Start exercise regularly and more homecook food - Have a healthier lifestyle (ops, this will mean I have to overcome my hate towards cooking. Cooking is my number one dislike. Jamie Oliver, please help!)
- Be patient and persistent – Schedule my blogging activities, learn more blogging tips and meet more bloggers – Have more traffic and bring my existing blogs to higher level
- Be open and creative – Study and research for more ideas and opportunities – Have a new creation (I have no idea what I want to create yet *wink)
Anthony Robbins once said, “ To get different results you need to do something different.”
Let’s make 2012 a SPECTACULAR year. Happy New Year. Cheers!
p/s: We’ll be back next year with more exciting stuff.
If at first you don’t succeed, try try again.
If you do not give up but try and try and try, finally triumph would be yours. The word explains the meaning by itself.
” Try “ + ” umph “ = ” Triumph “
What should you have to have triumph?
- Never give in, in whatever you do. That’s the “try”.
- Burning desire. That’s the “umph”.
- Promise. Let’s MAKE IT HAPPEN !
People don’t fail, they quit. So how to success?
Alexander Graham Bell once said, “It is not that you failed, it’s just that you have not found that something more!”.
Happy “triumph-ing”
I like motivation quotes. And I like photos too. Combining the two, I am using this approach to create my own Rainy Day Notes. Simply insert the motivation quotes into my favorite photos, and then share here !
This will be a motivation for me to snap more good photos, in another way brush up my photography skills and squeeze out my creativity juice. Hopefully I can create more fantastic pictures *no try, must make it happen !
If you’ve noticed, in the past few posts, I’ve started to use my own photos (rather than getting pictures elsewhere).
Hope they are more unique and you’ll like them
We always talk about how to success, on the other hand, how do we handle failure? What it takes to face failure?
Daily Motivation Quote For Today :
It is not how far you fall, but how high you bounce.
Let’s take a look at Pepsi Cola. Pepsi Cola declared its first bankruptcy on March 2, 1923. It went bankrupt again in 1925. On May 18, 1931, it filed its third bankruptcy petition. Not long ago, its annual sales was US$9.3 billion versus Coca-Cola corporation’s US$8.4 billion.
The price for success is PERSISTENCE. If you ever come to a corner feeling down and out, always remember you are only at a bend and not the end of road.
So keep BOUNCING HIGH! … boing-boing-boing …
