Do not be too moral. You may cheat yourself out of much life. Aim above morality. Be not simply good; be good for something. Henry David Thoreau, 1817-1862

The truth is that there is nothing noble in being superior to somebody else. The only real nobility is in being superior to your former self. Whitney Young, 1921-1971
One of the most amazing attributes of human beings is the fact that you can travel within while you are immobile without. You can be seated right there and now but your mind could be wondering in what didn’t happen yesterday. This is purely what works either towards your advantage or disadvantage.

Thought is action in rehearsal. Sigmund Freud
The whole world now is in sync with the happenings of FiFa world cup. In as much as it is commonly referred to as ‘football’, you will agree with me that there is similar or perhaps even more engagement from the ‘neck up’ than from the wrist down. The professional footballer is much aware of this fact than most of us do. I listened to one of them in an interview on television and really appreciated the fact that he took the trouble to unveil what he referred to as techniques in playing soccer.

Success is not the result of spontaneous combustion. You must set yourself on fire.
Reggie Leach
The revealed essence of a thing is based on the hidden parameters that are never too obvious for the common eye. For you to be able to read this blog posting, I had to work and touch on a number of control panels at the back office of this website for the characters to appear as they do whilst you read.

Learning is not compulsory... neither is survival. W. Edwards Deming, 1900-1993
I learnt with profound interest of a certain re-known senior citizen who devoted all her years in the teaching profession. When she got her retirement package, she invested all her savings into some sort of pyramid scheme and needless to say, she lost all that she had.

Motivational Quote
You can know the name of a bird in all the languages of the world, but when you're finished, you'll know absolutely nothing whatever about the bird... So let's look at the bird and see what it's doing -- that's what counts. I learned very early the difference between knowing the name of something and knowing something. Richard Feynman, 1918-1988
A couple of days ago, a friend allowed me to drive his mini-truck to deliver some luggage to the country side. By the time I was getting ready to drive back, darkness had already crept in. Although I got back to the city safely, I did have a rather unusual rough drive. The truck’s full lights were as good as dim lights.

Don't underestimate the power of a vision. McDonald's founder, Ray Kroc, pictured his empire long before it existed, and he saw how to get there. He invented the company motto -- 'Quality, service, cleanliness and value' -- and kept repeating it to employees for the rest of his life.Kenneth Labich
I am sure you are pretty very much aware that you are a sum total of all the choices that you have made so far in life. However, very few of us also reflect on the fact that we are also products of the choices that we have not made and choices that we keep postponing.

The vitality of thought is in adventure. Ideas won't keep. Something must be done about them. Alfred North Whitehead, 1861-1947
I will say it today out loud that you can never succeed in this earthly adventure if you ignore the power of an idea. The dividing difference between where you are and where you want to be is an ‘idea’. There has never been anything big created except that which was hatched as an idea in the mind of whosoever did it.

The most significant moment in your life is the current ‘now’ moment.
Anonymous
Over the short time that I have been on the globe, I have learnt that to live a life of fulfillment, you have at times and more often than not, do things contrary to the ‘wishes’ of most people.

In the absence of clearly-defined goals, we become strangely loyal to performing daily trivia until ultimately we become enslaved by it. Robert Heinlein, 1907-1988
I have always wanted to own a getaway countryside home. At the beginning of this year, I enlisted the expertise of an architect for that project. He came up with a perfect impression of what I exactly wanted. I brought on board an experienced foreman to commence the project. Five months down the road, I am now doing the final touches.
