aspirations and dreams
can't afford to ignore to achieve something big
In life seams
purposeful pitch
raise confidence, harder you dig
no hitch
jet set
go do the jig
bet
aspirations and dreams
raise confidence, harder you dig
bet
success is stair-shaped ...
starting with baby steps ...
striding for childhood surety ...
selflessly sharing along maturity-seal ...
settled midst satisfied old age serenity ...
soaring toward gratitude-bliss' shine ...
sufficed along God-blest sustenance!!!
If a loser today don't give up
Would become a winner tomorrow
A reader today
A leader tomorrow
A singer today
A healer tomorrow
A giver today
A receiver tomorrow
What you do, makes or breaks you.
To be somebody
You have to be like nobody
Even when you try to copy
You can't do it like the original person
Be you do you for you
Work on yourself
So you don't live like everyone.
When you pray for it
Work for it
So you can walk in it
If you don't go for it
It won't come to you
To be successful, you have to be of service.
True joy comes not
From having more
But be grateful.
True freedom comes
From inner peace
And acceptance.
Success is built
By countless fall
Each fall a test.
Persistence rave
Key to success
Give good result.
What makes some people more Successful?
To this I reply,
I cannot tell a lie,
As in my bed I lie,
Drinking a bottle of Rye,
Determined to answer the question before I die,
While knowing that too, is a lie,
For it is obvious to even a fly,
That the answer is a pie in the sky.
When you believe you can feel the magic in the air
Turn your inner thoughts into actions there is no time to spare
We can create all the joy and happiness in our lives we need
Remember we can find our hopes and dreams, we just need to plant the seeds
As the director of your life, you set the scenes you wish to create
Fill each day with an endless stream of love, it's never too late
Every day you should try and make it better than the last
The key to a successful life is not to dwell on the past
If you truly believe in yourself good things will surely come your way
Visualization is the key to getting what you desire, but you must practice this every day
Fear is the number one enemy that stops us from being the person we want to be
If you do not let it rule your life positive changes will come just wait and see
Try to imagine a world that would be perfect in so many different ways
Why do anger and frustration seem to rule nearly every single day
Happy people it would seem are at peace and tend to have a longer lifespan
I think love and happiness should be part of everyone's life plan
If we are all fed a constant plate of doom and gloom, we seem to want to share it with all mankind
It manifests a dark cloud that smothers us and permeates the mind
We want all to chart a course that will improve everyone's lot in life
Together we can create an environment that would eliminate all the strife
Hard work is necessary to ensure a successful future for all, to be sure
We owe it to our future generations to design a path that will provide a cure
Let, 's all do our part to make everyone's life fancy and free
May all mankind's future become what they truly want it to be
The Successful Economist
Intermittent incidents flash across my screen
Faces, places, of where and what I have been.
Did I really do all those things
A far false memory that springs
From chasms in my brain
Hazy lazy clouds of pain
Anguish of a distant happy now gone
A faded contest of life I have not won
Who ran with me are no more
A fleeting step of lost encore
And yet I go on with triumph past
To walk one more path
It is the last.
Asymptomatic love, a silent thief in the night
Unseen and unfelt, but oh, what a painful sight
But love, a stubborn force, will not be denied
And through the pain, it will always abide
In the end, successful, despite the bitter cost
Two hearts now one, forevermore embossed
Bear is lollygagging next to wolf, who is snoring big time.
Mama deer is watering daisies, I think some are mine.
All the breads and cheese have made the animals feel tired.
Two mice are comfortable, but the salamander is wired.
Crow and cardinal have made a little separate picnic spread.
Bread and wine are plentiful, the wine a champagne red.
Dragonfly and damselfly easily slice the pinwheel bread.
Butterflies land on every petal, the wren easily said.
The picnic is a huge success, no fights, nothing to fear.
Bear devours the popcorn chain, saying “Let’s meet again next year.”
Some of the animals laugh at this thought.
Because they do this every year, it always sought.
What's the values of life
What's a successful life
No definition indeed
One man's meat may be another man's poison
Let the happiness decides
Man should pursue happiness
Without hurting others
Or offending the law
Let's follow one's conscience
Let's follow the teachings of God
Life is full of meanings and pursuits
Richess, love, health, fame or contribution
May be one of the road to
The tower of happiness
And so a successful life
But it can be either temporary or everlasting
And it all depends on your fate or sincerity
Today I was dreaming,
How amazing it might feel to be successful.
The adrenaline and satisfaction would release enormously,
The feeling of pride and overwhelming enthusiasm.
So amazing to get it all and feel it all,
So amazing to be the one and only.
I wish someday this feeling,
Come to me running,
So I could finally be able to feel it all,
And get it all!

Here alone
Far from my fellow kind
I stand by myself
But I am not lonely
Long ago I learned
Having more people in my life
Did not equate to
Having more friends
Being busier
Did not mean being more constructive
Or being more successful
That fulfillment comes from within
So now I gaze
Over a landscape filled with memories
Of family, friends and good times
I am alone, but not lonely
Andreas Simic©
What qualities make a ‘successful man’,
Is it the tambor of his voice,
Some lofty goals, a lifelong plan,
A steering hand, his knowing choice.
Can compassion play a part
Or is that interpreted as meekness;
Is it wrong to show a heart
Without labeling it as weakness?
Does strength need to be paraded
A steely front for all to see,
Is authority degraded
When others sometime don't agree?
An old proverb said as much:
"A wise man is one who listens"
Few have had the Midas touch
And those that did have breached divisions.
Three traits renown - the deadly cluster,
The very ones to spell out doom,
Bravado, Braggadocio and sheer Bluster,
For all they bring is downright gloom.
So where's the rulebook, that golden fleece
To show the way and light the path,
That font of knowledge and inner peace,
Assured success without the wrath?
Where it exists is inner strength,
A willingness to learn whilst teaching too,
Consistency and grace to any length,
Embracing all of us, not simply you.
Shanita’s face was a map of confidence and strength.
At seventeen, she exuded a majestic feeling, without any haughtiness.
I knew she would master any avenue or occupation that appealed.
Years later I ran into Shanita once again.
Her self-assured face told me immediately …..
She was successful in every area of her life.
She did not have to say it; I could see it in her walk.
And the way she greeted everyone with respect.
