Thoughts For Life's Directions

"We rate ability in men by what they finish, not by what they attempt."

At times, we preoccupy ourselves with so many things that we come out of focus. Some of us try to do things one after the other without ever finishing them. Basing on this inspiration above, what then is noteworthy in life are those accomplished tasks in life rather than those which have been attempted. Our success therefore is gauged by what we concretely achieved no matter how difficult the road could have been. 

"Some fellows dream of worthy accomplishments, while others stay awake and do them."

It is sad to take note that there are those fellows who just limit themselves with just dreaming dreams and never do anything to reach them. Dreams are very crucial to our life. They give us directions and urge us to do and strive for the best. However, the sad thing is when others don't materialise them and do other things instead.

"It is when we forget ourselves that we do things that are most likely to be remembered." 

Total out giving is the best way to truly contribute ourselves to others. In several instances in our life, we tend to do things for others yet at the back of our minds, there is also that desire that maybe someday, that person whom we have shared something could also do us a favour. Somehow in that case, it becomes a bent arrow meaning we do good to others but without them knowing it, we are actually doing favours for ourselves. Hence, before we extend our hands to others, let us think first of our interior motive if what really is our hearts' desire when we reach out to others.
