Traveling in Cyberspace: I have learned (author unknown)

Traveling in Cyberspace: I have learned
Published on May 9, 2008 in Stories. By Paulo Coelho
This text, which I found on the Internet, is I think worth reproducing here:
I have learned (author unknown)
I’ve learned that you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is be someone who can be loved. The rest is up to them;
I’ve learned that no matter how much I care, some people just don’t care back;
I’ve learned that it takes years to build up trust, and only seconds to destroy it.
I’ve learned that it’s not what you have in your life but who you have in your life that counts;
I’ve learned that you can get by on charm, for about fifteen minutes. After that, you’d better know something;
I’ve learned that you shouldn’t compare yourself to the best others can do.
I’ve learned that you can do something in an instant that will give you heartache for life.
I’ve learned that it’s taking me a long time to become the person that I want to be.
I’ve learned that you should always leave loved ones with loving words. It may b the last time you see them.
I’ve learned that you can keep going long after you can’t.
I’ve learned that we are responsible for all we do, no matter how we feel.
I’ve learned that either you control your attitude or it controls you.
I’ve learned that no matter how hot and steamy a relationship is at first, the passion fades and there had better be something else to take it’s place.
I’ve learned that heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.
I’ve learned that money is a lousy way of keeping score.
I’ve learned that my best friend and I can do anything or nothing and have the best time.
I’ve learned that sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you’re downhill are the ones to help you get back up.
I’ve learned that sometimes when I’m angry I have the right to be angry, but that doesn’t give me the right to be cruel.
I’ve learned that true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance. Same goes for true love.
I’ve learned that just because someone doesn’t love you the way you want them to doesn’t mean that they don’t love you with all they have.
I’ve learned that maturity had more to do with what types of experiences you’ve had and what you’ve learned from them and less to do with how many birthdays you’ve celebrated.
I’ve learned that your family won’t always be there for you. It may seem funny, but people you aren’t related to can take care of you and love you and teach you to trust people again. Families aren’t biological.
I’ve learned that no matter how good a friend is, they’re going to hurt you every once in a while and you must forgive them for that.
I’ve learned that it isn’t always enough to be forgiven by others. Sometimes you have to forgive yourself.
I’ve learned that no matter how bad your heart is broken, the world doesn’t stop for your grief.
I’ve learned that our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who we become.
I’ve learned that just because two people argue, it doesn’t mean they don’t love each other. And just because they don’t argue, it doesn’t mean they do.
I’ve learned that we don’t have to change friends if we understand that friends change.
I’ve learned that you shouldn’t be so eager to find out a secret. It could change your life forever.
I’ve learned that two people can look at the exact same thing and see something totally different.
I’ve learned that no matter how you try to protect your children, they will eventually get hurt and you will get hurt in the process.
I’ve learned that your life can be changed in a matter of hours by people who don’t even know you.
I’ve learned that even when you think you have no more to give, when a friend cries out to you, you will find the strength to help.
I’ve learned that credentials on the wall do not make you a decent human being.
I’ve learned that the people you care about the most in life are taken from you too soon.
I’ve learned that it’s hard to determine where to draw the line between being nice and not hurting people’s feelings and standing up for what you believe.
Enjoy!
Sincerely,

Positive Habit Lesson (Take Responsibility for your Life)
Today's quote:
'Words are clothes that thoughts wear' - Samuel Butler
************************************************************
Today's positive habit:
Take Responsibility for Your Life.....
Perhaps the most important decision
any person can make is the decision to take personal
responsibility for their life.
Make it a habit to TAKE personal responsibility for your
actions and their results.
What does that mean?
Let me give you some examples:
I cannot tell you how many times I have listened
to people complain about how they are always getting sick.
As they are explaining their various health problems to me
they pause to lift a cigarette to their mouth. I tell them that
they are only making their situation worse by smoking cigarettes,
they shrug their shoulders and say "you gotta die from something."
I always ask the non-smokers with health issues this question:
"How many times a week do you elevate your heart rate to 70%
of it's maximum for 10 minutes or more?"
The answer I get 90% of the time is "never."
No wonder that have health issues, they live a sedentary lifestyle.
If you want to be healthy you have to move, and move often....stay
still and you will be doomed to live a life filled with
health problems.
The most important decision you can make in your life is
to take personal responsibility for it.
If you have an addiction kick it. There are numerous support
groups to help you....no excuses.
If you are overweight and unhealthy get fit and in shape.
Read books about healthy diets, healthy lifestyles, don't
accept anything but the best for yourself.
Be proactive!
Who has to live in your skin?
That's right, it is you!
Not your doctor!
Not your husband or wife or your children!
It is you who has to live in "YOUR" skin!
You have to live with the consequences of
not taking positive steps to prevent sickness
and disease in your life, and it is you
that can take the steps to bring wellness
back to your life.
It is "YOU" who has to live with "YOUR" health problems.
It is "YOU" that can take charge and learn how others conquered
their health problems....let them show you the way.
Soon you will know more about your personal health challenges
than any doctor knows about them.
It is "YOU" who may have chosen to live a life of mediocrity.
"YOU" have the power to change every aspect of your life.
"YOU" can choose to study the laws of success and
change your life to one of amazing success.
The tools are all yours for the taking.
Read the Bible of Success, "Think and Grow Rich" by
Napolean Hill. Read it over and over again
until it is a part of who you are, a person who will
succeed no matter what obstacles may appear.
Don't let the title fool you, money is a very small
part of the story.
Take responsibility for your life today!
You can change it all if you want!
You can be a winner if you want!
You can be the person you want to be if you
only WANT it enough!
Decide today to take responsibly!
Read the books, do the research, ride the bike,
take the long walk, join the gym!
Go for it and don't stop until you reach your goals!
Here are some tools to help you get started.
#1
Here is the best advice I can give you moving forward with
your new life.
"Don't re-invent the wheel!"
Decide what it is you need to accomplish and find someone who has
already reached your goal. Find out how they did it and
copy their model.
Some examples:
*** You have health issues: ***
Read books written by people who "HAD" the same problem you
have and conquered it. The books are out there.....find them!
Don't stop until you have found all the books that are specific
to your health problem.
Don't stop until you have taken the actions recommended
in the books written by people who have overcome your
health problem.
Don't stop until you can walk into your doctors office
and see his/her eyes light up in amazement at the knowledge
you have about your condition! Become the expert on your condition!
*** You want to start a new business: ***
Read business and success books related to the business venture
you want to start.
Find someone who is ultra successful and copy their model.
Remember, they have already been through the ups
and downs...they can teach you how to get where you want to go
quickly.
The same applies to career advancement, child rearing, relationship
advice, etc. Find the experts and let them teach you.
Here are some great tools to get you going FAST!

You Have To See This...."Highly Recommended"
As you know, I am always looking out for great resources
and tools to help you in the areas of "Success."
The hit-movie and bestselling book "the Secret"
took the world by storm by teaching the Law of
Attraction.
The phenomenon literally changed millions of
lives including my own. But did you know that
there are 11 other ancient laws that was not
revealed in "the Secret"?
You need to learn and work in harmony with these
laws if you want "the Secret" to work for you in
your life.
Bob Proctor from "the Secret" is going to reveal
these "forgotten laws" and I wanted to be the
first to share it with you.
Get The Details Here
Wishing You Continued Success!

The Power of Positive Habits by Dan Robey
Did you know that habits are incredibly powerful tools for
personal growth and success?
Think about the habits you have now and how they affect
virtually every aspect of your life. Your weight and health
are determined by your eating habits. Your relationships with
people are determined by your social habits. Your success at
work is determined by your work habits.
You have sleeping habits that dictate how well you sleep. You have
sexual habits. You even have buying habits; just take a look
around your house and you will quickly see them. Our character,
health and virtually every aspect of our lives are indeed
determined by our habits.
If you ask ten people on the street what the word habit means,
nine out of ten will tell you that a habit is a negative
action that people do over and over again, like smoking, or
procrastinating, or eating too much.
Bad habits get all the press. Let's look at the results of just
one bad habit: smoking. Every year, over 400,000 people lose
their lives to smoking-related illnesses in the United States.
Imagine then, the negative power that exists in just that
one bad habit. It is staggering.
Now I want you think about an even greater power, a power
that can bring you success, health and happiness; a power
for positive, permanent, and automatic personal growth: the
power of positive habits. Let's look a little closer at the
meaning of the word habit. Random House dictionary defines
habit in this way:
Habit: An acquired behavior pattern regularly
followed until it has become almost involuntary.
The important words in this definition are acquired and
almost involuntary. Let me ask you a question. When is the
last time you sat down and said to yourself, "Today I am
going to add a new habit to my life?" I would venture to
guess that you have probably never said those words.
As you read this article, you will see how easy it is to add
positive habits to your life and the great power they have to
change it. Think about the words almost involuntary. This means the
habit is so powerful in your mind that it is almost unstoppable! With
respect to bad habits like smoking, procrastination, and
overeating, this is very bad. But with positive habits, this
is very, very good.
What is a positive habit? A positive habit is simply a habit
that produces positive benefits, actions and attitudes you
want to acquire and make a part of your life. Why is there
such great power in positive habits to effect change?
Because habits, by their very nature, are automatic. After
a period of time they can become permanent.
So how do we go about adding new positive habits to our life?
It's really quite easy. You simply begin repeating an action,
attitude or thought process every day for at least 21 days.
Research has shown that an action that is repeated for a
minimum of 21 days is likely to become a permanent habit.
Remember that positive habits have positive benefits and
you will reap those benefits for as long as you maintain
that habit.Remember that positive habits have positive
benefits and you will reap those benefits for as long as
you maintain that habit.
So now that we know what positive habits are, and how to
acquire them, let's look at a simple positive habit that will
help you reach all of your goals ..automatically.
Positive Habit #53 - Make it a habit to set goals
Did you know that the most successful people all share the
common positive habit of goal setting? A study was done to
determine the importance of goal setting. College students
who had gone on to achieve great success in business were
asked to list their habits.
The students who had made a habit
of setting goals were in the top 3% of earnings in the
population! It is almost impossible to overestimate the value
of goal-setting as a positive habit. Goal setting is simple,
yet 97% of the population never do it. By making goal setting
a positive habit, you can start placing yourself in the
top 3% of the population of successful people.
Here are some simple steps to help you start making goal
setting a positive habit:
Step 1 - Define your goals, write them down, and be very
specific; capture your goals on paper. It is amazing
how many people never take the time to write down exactly
what it is they want in life. Remember, you can't hit a
target if you don't have one.
Step 2 - Determine what the time line is for reaching your
goals; set specific deadlines for each goal.
Step 3 - Identify any obstacles that may stand in your way,
list them, and state how you plan to overcome them.
Step 4 - Make a list of the people and/or organizations who
will help you reach your goals.
Enjoy!
