That Amazing feeling!

Just imagine yourself on the tennis court…already on the edge of your toes …with all your energy and breathe you are skidding on the clay…from your left to right ….

Just imagine…you are on your way to retrieve the ball powered by the sandbagging forehand cross-court shot from across the net…Ball is already behind you…your right hand outstretched to the limit…your eye-contact with ball almost nil…something then happens…despite your seeming struggle, your racquet manages to touch the ball…You seem to think you barely managed to make the shot…

That seems not to be…you are far better …Ball lobs over the net, high over the head and drops on to the unreachable left corner across the net!

Just imagine your amazing feeling ! An amazing feeling emanating from the great effort ! 

Dear Friends ...Life is a metaphor for the Tennis court …I wish you many such amazing feelings in 2015 !!!
Happy New Year !!!

How to live on 24 hours a day

Arnold Bennett was a prolific author in the early 20th Century. I read his book "How to live on 24 hours a day" He explains his process in his book : that resulted him in being a prolific author: following are the learning: even in the busiest week, find 7-1/2 hours of time beyond the work ; Focus those 7-1/2 hours on thinking Time practice honest self-reflection using the below questions: what do want for yourself? what motivates you? what scares you? what embarrasses you? What are you proud of? What beliefs do you have that might be wrong? Are you caring for yourself or harsh with yourself? Authors Arnold Bennett      

Repeat the Basics!

When you repeat the basics You don't only become great - you will stay great! -Darius Foroux Repeat 🔂 the basics of many things in your Life: 1. Fitness - Walking  2. Philosophy - read your favorite Author - everyday! 3. Kindness - random act of giving  4. Business -  What is the purpose of business? 5. Writing  -  Read the "The Elements of Style - Strunk & White"  Its very simple : Figure out the basics of the given field : 5-6 principles And repeat them day after day Back to the Basics! If you do so , you will lead a life with chronic White-belt mentality 😅 leading to Humility  even if your performance is that of a Master Black-belt! If you do so,  you not only become an expert of the field you will stay as one!
