Your life is a learning process - you can only become wiser from learning. Sometimes you might have to attract making a painful mistake to learn something important, but after the mistake you have far greater wisdom. Wisdom cannot be bought with money - it can only be acquired through living life. With wisdom comes strength, courage, knowing, and an ever-increasing peace."
PRIDE IS YOUR ENEMY!!!!

“Never go to bed angry” is a cliché that we always hear. This has proven to be a very sound advice, and a motto that many couples live by. For a married couple who is just starting out, "petty arguments" can not be avoided! That's the truth, unless you are living in pretence. The first year of your marriage (or even more depending on the couple) will be the "test of love" to determine the strength of your love. The strength of your love for each other will serve as the “building block” of the rest of your years together. However, do not be afraid to admit if you are wrong. Pride in marriage has a very expensive price to pay. Do not put this pride between you and your spouse. If you are in the wrong, do not be afraid to admit it, and then apologise. Remember that you are together in spite of your individual differences. Go back to what brought you together in the first place and you can never go wrong.

Change of diet will not help a man who will not change his thoughts. When a man makes his thoughts pure, he no longer desires impure food. If you would perfect your body, guard your mind. If you would renew your body, beautify your mind. Thoughts of malice, envy, disappointment, despondency, rob the body its health and grace. A sour face does not come by chance; it is made by sour thoughts.

Behind every single step you take in life, regardless of its direction, is that formidable and powerful force – thought. The very way you walk, the way you carry yourself, your talk, your manner of dress, all reflect your way of thinking. A slovenly carriage is an indication of slovenly thinking, whereas an alert, upright carriage is the outward sign of inward strength and confidence. What you exhibit outwardly, you are inwardly. You are the product of your own thoughts. What you believe yourself to be, you are.
YOUR WILL IS LIKE A MUSCLE'''

Your will is like a muscle, flex it! You must first exercise it and then push before it gets stronger. This necessarily involves short term pain, and most times long term. But be assured that the improvements will come and will touch your character in a most positive way. That being said, when you are hungry, wait another hour before your meal. When you are pissed, take a deep breath and settle in, everything must not end up in a fight. When you are facing a temporary financial set back, learn to make do with the little that's available and be cheerful; someone somewhere doesn't even have a little to manage. When you are labouring over a difficult task and your mind is prompting you to pick up the latest magazine for a break or to get up and go talk to a friend, curb the impulse etc. Soon you will be able to sit for hours in a precisely concentrated state. Sir Issac Newton, one of the greatest classical physicists the world has produced, once said: "if I ha...
