5 Ways to Win A Discussion Without Argument

Any momentary triumph you think you have gained through argument is really a Pyrrhic victory: The resentment and ill will you stir up is stronger and lasts longer than any momentary change of opinion.

8 Traits of Successful People

It all started one day on a plane, on my way to TED, seven years ago. And in the seat next to me was a high school student, a teenager, and she came from a really poor family. And she wanted to make something of her life, and she asked me a simple little question. She said, "What leads to success?" And I felt really badly, because I couldn't give her a good answer. So I get off the plane, and I come to TED. And I think, jeez, I'm in the middle of a room of successful people! So why don't I ask them what helped them succeed, and pass it on to kids? So here we are, seven years, 500 interviews later, and I'm gonna tell you what really leads to success and makes TED-sters tick.

4 Steps to Bring Peace Within

Radiating Love unconditionally is the most frequency-raising of all activities because in order to do it, you have to be in alignment! It is what you were designed for, and the ability to do this is “hard-wired” into you.

Happy New Year...Work Harder

Do you feel life is going fast and you have no time, Stephen Covey said in The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People that all tasks in your life can be divided into 4 areas:
1. Important and Urgent
2. Not Important but Urgent
3. Not Important Not Urgent
4. Important and not Urgent

Its the things which are Important but not Urgent, which will shape the course of this new year and your life. So take time out and ask what is important to you and make a plan. Then start working your plan.

Think about your goals and get down to planning it with deadlines. Breakdown the goals into tasks. Get up in the morning, look at your tasks. Make that phone call, renew that plan, cancel that service, schedule that appointment, take a break, do that report,make the presentation, have fun with it. Do it with passion and put your heart into it. When the person talks to you on the phone or meets you in person let him feel the energy. One after another you are just knocking down tasks and getting up and fighting harder every time you fall down.

In the process you will have mind blocks, just sit down with yourself and talk through them. One thing at a time. Relax, go out and meet some friends. Treat yourself right, give yourself the respect you deserve. Let go of your worries to the universe. Get in a good state of fun and appreciation.

Everything around you will slowly start changing. The change happens in the mind first, then once your vision is strong you will be able to be persistent and consistent in your actions and your life will start changing.

Have a Persistent, Hard Working and Successful Year !
