GRATITUDE

Let's not take for granted
That friendly little deed
Of the kindly neighbor
Who recognized our need.

Let's not take for granted
The sunshine and the rain,
The peace that enfolds us,
The day that's free from pain.

Let's not take for granted
The loyalty and smiles
Of one who's walked beside us
These many weary miles.

Let's not take for granted
These gifts that smooth our way;
Instead let's express
Our gratitude each day.

I heard this in a movie once...and it hit me like a ton of bricks! To me, it means that no matter what hashappened or what you have done, the possibilities are endless of always making things right! There's no point in wallowing about yesterday because what has happened has happened and cannot be erased but tomorrow it's a FRESH new start and everything you didn't do right the previous day, you can make up for...today! But you don't even need to wait for tomorrow...because RIGHT NOW is also here!

Peace has its victories, but it takes brave men and women to win them."

"Most people feel sad when other people, equally or lesser talented from them, show far better results. The reason for such a situation is simple - wrong priorities and incorrect benchmarking. The people who deliver know what is more important, given a choice. More than that, the people who get results set their own benchmarks and do not look for a peer/friend/competitor/rival as their benchmark. Once your benchmark is clear, getting there is automatic."

"Many work hard but few become a success. What extra makes those ordinary into extraordinary? The application of a simple thing, namely common sense."
Copyright © 2001 Jagannathan Arockiam
I always think about why some people succeed but others don't. I have come across very brilliant, talented and very hard working people who are not that successful. But I have seen a common quality in all successful people. They have more common sense and they are thoughtful of what they do. I think that is the success formula for everyone in addition to his or her talents.
