Basic Goal Reaching Principle

The basic goal-reaching principle is to understand that you go as far as you can see, and when you get there you will always be able to see farther

(Zig Ziglar)

憂患與安樂

從前有一位國王出巡，帶了一位新隨從同行。
隨從從未見過海洋，也沒有坐過船，結果船一路在海浪中搖晃，使得他暈頭轉向，哭哭啼啼，驚嚇不已。
雖然同船的人不斷安慰隨從，還是無法停止他的哭鬧與恐懼。
國王被煩得快受不了時，船上有一位哲學家說話了：「國王陛下，請允許我一試，我可以使他安靜下來。」
國王立刻答應的說：「就試吧！只要能讓他停止哭鬧就好。」
哲學家立刻叫人把那隨從抛到海裡去，讓他不斷沈浮，簡短時間過後，才讓人把他救起，隨從上船之後，便坐在一個角落裡，安靜得不再作聲。
國王很贊許哲學家的這個主意，便開口問道：「你為什麼會想到這個辦法？奧妙何在？」
哲學家說：「不知道滅頂的痛苦，便不知穩坐船上的可貴。就像一個人總要經歷過憂患，才會知道安樂的價值。」

金鳥與銀鳥

有一個樵夫，每天上山砍材，日復一日，過著平凡的日子。
某日樵夫跟平常一樣上山砍材，在路上撿到一隻受傷的銀鳥，銀鳥全身包裹著閃閃發光的
銀色羽毛，樵夫欣喜說︰「啊! 我一輩子從來沒有看過這麼漂亮的鳥！」於是把銀鳥帶回
家，專心替銀鳥療傷。
在療傷的日子裡，銀鳥每天唱歌給樵夫聽，樵夫過著快樂的日子。
有一天，鄰人看到樵夫的銀鳥，告訴樵夫他看過金鳥，金鳥比銀鳥漂亮上千倍，而且，歌
也唱得比銀鳥更好聽。樵夫想著，原來還有金鳥啊！
從此樵夫每天只想著金鳥，也不再仔細聆聽銀鳥清脆的歌聲，日子越來越不快樂。
一天傍晚，樵夫坐在門外，望著金黃的夕陽，想著金鳥到底有多美? 此時，銀鳥的傷康復，
準備離去。

銀鳥飛到樵夫的身旁，最後一次唱歌給樵夫聽，樵夫聽完，只是很感慨的說︰「你的歌聲
雖然好聽，但是比不上金鳥；你的羽毛雖然很漂亮，但是比不上金鳥的美麗。」
銀鳥唱完歌，在樵夫身旁繞了三圈告別，向金黃的夕陽飛去。
樵夫望著銀鳥，突然發現銀鳥在夕陽的照射下，變成了美麗的金鳥; 他夢寐以求的金鳥，
就在那裡，只是，金鳥已經飛走了，飛得遠遠的，再也不會回來。
人常常在不知不覺之中成了樵夫，自己卻不知道。不知道...原來金鳥就在自己身邊......

天使為什麼能夠飛?

世界上的很多事情是說不清楚的。


在一家醫學院學習的梅子居然和她的另外5位寢友到了同一所醫院實習。 因為她們學習的專業相同，她們都被安排在婦產科實習。
在學校能夠一起學習生活，實習又能夠在一起，這讓6姐妹非常歡喜。


但沒有多久，一個問題殘酷地擺到 6姐妹面前，這所醫院最後只能留用其中一人。能夠留在這所省內最高等級的醫院是6姐妹的共同渴望，但她們不得不面對「有你無我，有我無你」的殘酷競爭與淘汰。臨近畢業的日子越來越近，6姐妹的較量也越來越激烈，但她們始終相互激勵著，相互祝福著。


院方為了確定哪一名被留用，舉行了一次考核，結果出來了，面對同樣出色的6姐妹，院方一時也不知道該如何取捨。
但現實是，院方只能夠留用一人。 6姐妹中，開始有人表示自己家在外省，更喜歡畢業後能夠回到家鄉；有的人乾脆說家鄉的小縣城已經有醫院同意接收她 ……美麗的謊言感動著一個又一個人。

這天，6姐妹都突然接到一個相同的緊急通知，一名待產婦就要生產，醫院需要立刻前往她家中救治。
6姐妹急匆匆地上了急救車。

一名副院長、一名主任醫生、 6名實習醫生、2名護士同時去搶救一名待產婦，如此隆重的陣勢讓6姐妹都感覺到一種前所未有的緊張。
有人悄悄地問院長，是什麼樣的人物，需要這樣興師動眾? 院長簡單地解釋道：
「這名產婦的身分和情況都有些特殊，讓你們都來，也是想讓你們都不要錯過這個機會，你們可都要認真觀察學習。」
車內一片沉寂。待產婦家很偏僻，急救車左拐右拐終於到達時，待產婦已經折騰得滿頭汗水。

醫護人員七手八腳把待產婦抬上急救車後，發現了一個問題，車上已經人挨人，待產婦的丈夫上不來了。
人們知道，待產婦到達醫院進行搶救，是不能沒有親屬在身邊辦理一些相關手續的。
人們都下意識地看向副院長，副院長低頭為待產婦檢查著，頭都未抬地說道：「快開車!」
所有人都怔住了。不知道該如何是好。


這時候，梅子突然跳下了車，示意待產婦的丈夫上車。


急救車風馳電掣地開往醫院，等梅子氣喘吁吁趕回到醫院的時候，已經是半小時後了。
在醫院門口，她被參加急救的副院長攔住了，副院長問她：「這麼難得的學習機會，你為什麼跳下了車 ?」
梅子擦著額頭的汗水回答道：「車上有那麼多醫生、護士，缺少我不會影響搶救的。但沒有病人家屬，可能會給搶救帶來必要的影響。」

3天后，院方的留用結果出來了，梅子成為幸運者。


院長說出了理由：「 3天前的那一場急救是一場意外的測試。 將來無論你們走到哪裡，無論從事什麼職業，都應該記住一句話，天使能夠飛翔，是因為把自己看得很輕。」

天使為什麼會飛翔？是因為它把自己看得很輕。


相信嗎！人如果能拋卻自我　拋卻世間所有負擔與束縛 也同樣的會很輕 …　也同樣的能夠飛翔... ..................
現在做不到　是因為不相信！是因為還有強大的自我！


美麗不是一種錯誤，問題在於如何呈現美麗；
財富不是一種罪惡，問題在於如何使用財富；
智慧不是一種負擔，問題在於如何運用智慧；
選舉不是一種過錯，問題在於如何選賢舉能；
成就夥伴不是一種陷害，問題在於如何支持夥伴；
成就團體不是一種勉強，問題在於如何提升團體。

舊歌重聽 Celine Dion - Because You Loved Me

Celine Dion - Because you loved me

For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful baby
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through through it all


You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me


You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you


You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me


You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration
Through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you


You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me


I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

Vedera - Even I

Vedera - Even I

I don't want to notice
I don't want to see
Even I don't give up
Even I won't give up

You're breaking surface
So what's left of me?
Tell me when is enough
Tell me I should give up

It's not the way you move
It's your words
Though they soothe,
They're not telling the truth

Didn't I know you?
Didn't I try to
Carry on while just believing in you?
Didn't I give up, every-thing?
Tell me now,
If there a reason for anything?

My heart it was open
You stepped through the door
It is tearing me up
Giving in, giving up
Left here always hoping
One day there'd be more
Even I don't give up
Tell me when is enough

I see the strings you pulled
I'm not blind
And I'm not fooled
Well you know it's true

Didn't I know you?
Didn't I try to
Carry on while just believing in you?
Didn't I give up, every-thing?
Tell me now,
If there a reason for anything?

Well here we are
Glance away
I wanted you
You couldn't stay
Reaching out
Reaching in
And will I be here till the day?
You found another
To pack away from
I won't make the same mistake again, no.

Didn't I know you?
Didn't I try to
Carry on while just believing in you?
Didn't I give up, every-thing?
Tell me now,
If there a reason for anything?

Didn't I know you?
Didn't I try to
Carry on while just believing in you?
Didn't I give up, every-thing?
Tell me now,
If there a reason for anything?

Cause even I don't give up
Even I don't give up
Even I don't give up
Even I don't give up

I don't want to notice
I don't want to see
Even I don't give up
Even I won't give up

Vedera - A World Apart

Vedera - A World Apart

Here we stand alone
Our goodbyes and our waiting
Getting our fate to move
Always the hardest part
Like friends we know
We’ve traveled off from one another
And we’re trying to face the days a world apart

Change is what we have
All the born into
That’s what he said
And all that I have to hold on to

You have opened up a part of me
Taken the shadows and replaced them with your face
And you
Have opened up a part of me
Saying please don’t leave me here
When I’m a world’s apart from you

Independence is the part that drew you in
You said I like the way you know a thing or two
But I must confess
The air I breathe has a chill
Making you less aware of what I have to do
I tell you now I can’t reveal the strength I need
Climb all the mountains wishing you were here to see

But you have opened up a part of me
Taken the shadows and replaced them with your face
You have opened up a part of me
Saying please don’t leave me here
When I’m a world apart from you

With a true and faithful heart
I found it
Apart from all the others
I can stand alone because I know that

You have opened up a part of me
Taken the shadows and replaced them with your face
You have opened up a part of me
Saying please don’t leave me here

And you, you
Saying please don’t leave me here
And you, you
Saying please don’t leave me here
And you, you
Please don’t leave me here
And you, oh you
Saying please don’t leave me here
Where I’m a world apart from you

See beyond the imperfections

Once upon a time there was a girl who had four boyfriends.

She loved the fourth boyfriend the most and adorned him with rich robes and treated him to the finest of delicacies. She gave him nothing but the best.

She also loved the third boyfriend very much and was always showing him off to neighboring kingdoms. However, she feared that one day he would leave her for another.

She also loved her second boyfriend. He was her confidant and was always kind, considerate and patient with her. Whenever this girl faced a problem, she could confide in him, and he would help her get through the difficult times.

The girl's first boyfriend was a very loyal partner and had made great contributions in maintaining her wealth and kingdom. However, she did not love the first boyfriend although he loved her deeply, she hardly took notice of him!

One day, the girl fell ill and she knew her time was short. She thought of her luxurious life and wondered, 'I now have four boyfriends with me, but when I die, will I be a alone.'

Thus, she asked the fourth boyfriend, 'I loved you the most, endowed you with the finest clothing and showered great care over you. Now that I'm dying, will you follow me and keep me company?
'No way!', replied the fourth boyfriend, and he walked away without another word. His answer cut like a sharp knife right into her heart.

The sad girl then asked the third boyfriend, 'I loved you all my life. Now that I'm dying, will you follow me and keep me company?'
'No!', replied the third boyfriend. 'Life is too good! When you die, I'm going to marry someone else!' Her heart sank and turned cold

She then asked the second boyfriend, 'I have always turned to you for help and you've always been there for me.. When I die, will you follow me and keep me company?'

'I'm sorry, I can't help you out this time!', replied the second boyfriend. 'At the very most, I can only walk with you to your grave.' His answer struck her like a bolt of lightning, and the girl was devastated.

Then a voice called out: 'I'll go with you. I'll follow you no matter where you go.. ' The girl looked up, and there was her first boyfriend. He was very skinny as he suffered from malnutrition and neglect.

Greatly grieved, the girl said, 'I should have taken much better care of you when I had the chance!'

In truth, you have four boyfriends in your lives:

Your fourth boyfriend is your body. No matter how much time and effort you lavish in making it look good, it will leave you when you die.

Your third boyfriend is your possessions, status and wealth.When you die, it will all go to others..

Your second boyfriend is your family and friends. No matter how much they have been there for you, the furthest they can stay by you is up to the grave.

And your first boyfriend is your spirit. Often neglected in pursuit of wealth, power and pleasures of the world.

However, your spirit is the only thing that will follow you where ever you go. Cultivate, strengthen and cherish it now, for it is the only part of you that will follow you to the throne of God and continue with you throughout Eternity.

Being happy doesn't mean everything's perfect. It means you've decided to see beyond the imperfections.

白開水

茶水間裡看到同事拿著漂亮的花瓷杯不禁讚美了幾句。

女同事回答：花了兩千元買的，當初覺得漂亮，看久了也沒感覺了。

我笑說：難怪男士們娶了如花似玉的美嬌娘，過幾年還會發生外遇。

人是不是都喜新厭舊，當你沒有時好希望擁有它；屬於你以後在身邊久了,又開始想新的...

對於已經習慣了的人事物，總是忘了他們的好和他們的重要，一切視為理所當然；鎮日埋首於工作或應酬的人，也總是忘了身邊最親最愛的人才是最需要關懷的。美好而重要的他們就像是白開水，必要、方便、養生，近在眼前隨手可得，所以反而容易忽略。

試試一天都不要喝白開水吧，當最乾渴時，你會發現白開水有多麼重要！

凡事自有安排

北歐一座教堂裡，有一尊耶穌被釘在十字架上的苦像，大小和一般人差不多。

因為有求必應，因此專程前來這裡祈禱，膜拜的人特別多，幾乎可以用門庭若市來形容。

教堂裡有位看門的人，看十字架上的耶穌每天要應付這麼多人的要求，

覺得於心不忍，他希望能分擔耶穌的辛苦。

有一天他祈禱時，向耶穌表明這份心願。

意外地，他聽到一個聲音，說：「好啊！我下來為你看門，你上來釘在十字架上。

但是，不論你看到什麼、聽到什麼，都不可以說一句話。」

這位先生覺得，這個要求很簡單。於是耶穌下來，看門的先生上去，像耶穌被釘在十字架般地伸張雙臂，本來苦像就雕刻得和真人差不多，所以來膜拜的群眾不疑有他，這位先生也依照先前的約定，靜默不語，聆聽信友的心聲。

來往的人潮絡繹不絕，他們的祈求，有合理的，有不合理的，千奇百怪不一而足。

但無論如何，他都強忍下來而沒有說話，因為他必須信守先前的承諾。

有一天來了一位富商，當富商祈禱完後，竟然忘記手邊的錢便離去。

他看在眼裡，真想叫這位富商回來，但是，他憋著不能說。

接著來了一位三餐不繼的窮人，他祈禱耶穌能幫助它渡過生活的難關。

當要離去時，發現先前那位富商留下的袋子，打開，裏面全是錢。

窮人高興得不得了，耶穌真好，有求必應，萬分感謝地離去。

十字架上偽裝的耶穌看在眼裏，想告訴他，這不是你的。

但是，約定在先，他仍然憋著不能說。

接下來有一位要出海遠行的年輕人來到， 他是來祈求耶穌降福他平安。

正當要離去時，富商衝進來，抓住年輕人的衣襟，要年輕人還錢，年輕人不明究理，兩人吵了起來。

這個時候，十字架上偽裝的耶穌終於忍不住，遂開口說話了...

既然事情清楚了，富商便去找冒牌耶穌所形容的窮人，而年輕人則匆匆離去，生怕搭不上船。

偽裝成看門的耶穌出現，指著十字架上說：「你下來吧！那個位置你沒有資格了。」

看門人說：「我把真相說出來，主持公道，難道不對嗎？」

耶穌說：「你懂得什麼？那位富商並不缺錢，他那袋錢不過用來嫖妓，可是對那窮人，卻是可以挽回一家大小生計；最可憐的是那位年輕人，如果富商一直纏下去，延誤了他出海的時間，他還能保住一條命，而現在，他所搭乘的船正沉入海中。」

這是一個聽起來像笑話的寓言故事，卻透露出：

『在現實生活中，我們常自認為怎麼樣才是最好的，但事與願違，使我們意不能平。我們必須相信：目前我們所擁有的，不論順境、逆境，都是對我們最好的安排。若能如此，我們才能在順境中感恩，在逆境中依舊心存喜樂。』

人生的事，沒有十全十美。但是，我們應認真活在當下。

Nice quotes from Brian Tracy

1. "Your beliefs about yourself and your world create your expectations.

Your expectations determine your attitude. Your attitude determines

your behavior and the way you relate to other people. And the

way you behave toward and relate to other people determines how they

relate to and behave toward you. "

2. "You’ve heard it said, in Poker, “The winners laugh and tell jokes

while the losers say, ‘shut up and deal!’ ” In the world around you, the

winners are busy and actively working toward achieving their goals

while average people are putting in as little work and contribution as

they can and hoping for a lucky break. Winners always ascribe their success

to hard work and application. Mediocre people always ascribe their

failures to bad luck"

3. "When you stand in front of a mirror and you see your reflection,

you know that this picture is determined by what you are presenting to

the mirror. When you look at each part of your life, you will see your

own attitudes and beliefs reflected back to you. You do not see the world the

way it is, but the way you are. The person you are inside primarily determines

what is happening to you on the outside. "

4. " You are where you are and what you are because you have decided to be there. If there is any part of your life that you don’t like, you are responsible for changing it."

5. "A person without goals is like a ship without a rudder, carried whichever way the tides and wind are blowing."

6. "It doesn’t matter where you are coming from; all that really matters is where you are going. The past is dead. It cannot be changed. It serves only to give you guidance and wisdom so that you can make better decisions in the future."

7. "Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity."

Best Of Me - Daniel Powter


I was made the wrong way
won't you do me the right way
where you gonna be tonight
'cause I won't stay too long

maybe you're the light for me
when you talk to me it strikes me
won't somebody help me
'cause I don't feel too strong

Was it something that I said
was it something that I did
or the combination of both that did me wrong

You know I'm hoping you'll sing along
Though it's not your favorite song
don't wanna be there when there's nothing left to say
you know that some of us spin again
when you do, you need a friend
don't wanna be there when there's nothing left for me
and I hate the thought of finally being erased
baby that's the best of me

Everything's behind you
but the hope still stands beside you
living in every moment
have I wasted all your time

Was there something that I said
was there something that I did
or the combination I broke that did me have

You know I'm hoping you'll sing along
though it's not your favorite song
don't wanna be there when there's nothing left to say
you know that some of us spin again
when you do, you need a friend
don't wanna be there when there's nothing left for me
and I hate the thought of finally being erased
baby that's the best of me
baby that's the best of me

You know I'm hoping you'll sing along
though it's not your favorite song
don't wanna be there when there's nothing left to say
you know that some of us spin again
when you do, you need a friend
don't wanna be there when there's nothing left for me
and I hate the thought of finally being erased
baby that's the best of me

And I'm so lonely you're not here with me
That's why I'm gonna be on the next plane home
And you're, you're the only face I wanna see
That's why I'm gonna be on the next plane home

And you're, you're the only face I wanna see
That's why I'm gonna be on the next plane home
Yeah I'm taking the next plane home
Now I'm getting the next plane home
Now I'm taking the next plane home
