On Meeting the Celebrated
I have always wondered at the passion many people have to meet the celebrated. The prestige（威望） you acquire by being able to tell your friends that you know famous men proves only that you are yourself of small account. The celebrated d

Clear Your Mental Space
Think about the last time you felt a negative emotion -- like stress, anger, or frustration. What was going through your mind as you were going through that negativity? Was your mind cluttered with thoughts? Or was it paralyzed, unable to t

Giving Life Meaning
Have you thought about what you want people to say about you after you're gone? Can you hear the voice saying, "He was a great man." Or "She really will be missed." What else do they say? One of the strangest phenomena of life is

Proud Americans
Americans are proud to be Americans. But each individual will explain that he, personally, is not like the other Americans. He is better. Americans are proud to be different from each other and from the world. There is no such thing as a p

Best of times
Between persons of equal income there is no social distinction except the distinction of merit. Money is nothing; character, conduct, and capacity are everything. Instead of all the workers being leveled down to low wage standards and all t

The meaning of life
Life is never just being. It is becoming a relentless, flowing on. Our parents live on through us,and we will live on through our children. The institutions we build endure, and we will endure through them. The beauty we fashion cannot be d

Build me a son
Build me a son, Lord, who will be strong enough to know when he is weak, and brave enough to face himself when he is afraid; one who will be proud and unbending in honest defeat, and humble and gentle in victory. Build me a son whose wishb

Summer
One has the leisure of July for perceiving all the differences of the green of leaves. It is no longer a difference in degrees of maturity, for all the trees have darkened to their final tone, and stand in their differences of character and

Become a Better Listener
I strongly believe that it is rather important to be a good listener. And although I have become a better listener than I was ten years ago, I have to admit I'm still only an adequate listener. Effective listening is more than simply avoid

Go Home
Well, you can. Only you might find yourself staying at a Trave Lodge, driving a rented Ford Contour and staking out your childhood home like some noir private eye just trying to catch a glimpse of the Johnny-come-latelys that are now living

Please Let Me Have a Little World
Please, my dear, be so generous as to let me have a little world of my own. If you find me scrawling on a piece of paper, please don't peep over my shoulders. It may be that I'm venting some pent-up feelings, long dennied expression, or try

Manage your time
Most of us would like to accomplish more than what we are able to in a day. How many times have you felt that it would be so much easier if you only had a few more extra hours in a day to complete the various tasks that you have on your pla

Beliefs
Your beliefs are very powerful and have the power to create or to destroy your life. In most cases, whatever you believe, is what you will become. If you believe that you are loser, that you never get a break in life, that you can't accom

Communication Skills
Communication has been the major ingredient for the up gradation of the apes into human beings. Before language and the science of semantics were developed, facial expressions and body movements were the most sought after means for communic

Importance of Time
They say Life and Death are not in anyone's hands. They are things that just happen every time and with everyone. Same is the case with time. Most of the times we take it for granted that there is always plenty of time. Due to this perhaps
