Life Is A Great Teacher

Sometimes we need to remind ourselves of the things that life has taught us.

Here are ten lessons that life has taught me.
 -
1.    Life has taught me, that Struggle Is Good, I would not be who I am today if it was not for the struggles of my pass.

2.    Life has taught me not to complain after all that complaining is the most significant waste of time there is.  Either do something about it and if you can't, shut up about it.

3.    Life has taught me to make family a priority and that most people we call friends are not, they are just visitors. The family is for life.

4.    Life has taught me to have an attitude of gratitude and to say thank you in all things, for, in the end, it is all part of the all things that are working together for my good.

5.    Life has taught me to never worry about what others think or say about me. It does not matter what others say, after all, I refuse to give them power over my life. Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn.

6.    Life has taught me to take more risk and not to be such a wimp. Sometimes you just have to jump off the window ledge and just trust God.

7.    Life has taught me that if you want to be good at something you must practices. If you work hard enough and if you spend years and years doing that, eventually you will get it right.

8.    Life has taught me to be a leader and not a follower. We are all, natural born leaders, there is no initiation or a title needed. All we need is an opportunity.

9.    Life has taught me that that I know nothing, that every day is a seminar. You don't have to read a book a day to learn every day. We must learn from our mistakes. We must learn from other people mistakes. But most of all, we must have a teachable spirit.

10.    Life has taught me to enjoy the small things.  Don't try to figure it all out. Enjoy your journey. Enjoy the rain. Enjoy the deep red color of the rose. Enjoy your commute to work. Enjoy the small things.

Uncle Paul's Thought: Life is all about learning, the day we stop learning is the day that we die. So we have to keep learning.

It's Just A Thought
