Goal Setting For Life
It's Always a big trouble for people to set thier lives goal.
Here are a few tips and keys you can do to stick to your resolutions:
BE REALISTIC. If you're looking to slim down, setting a resolution to lose 250 lb.. is a bit too dreamy. Start with some workable goal (try starting with 50 lb.) and as you see progress, step up your goals from your successes. Now, it's also useful to challenge yourself, just keep it attainable. And instead of losing weight, state the goal in positive and measurable terms, so for example, consider becoming fit so that you can do something that you can't at your current fitness.
GO FOR ACTION. If you made a resolution to get stuff like getting into shape, or to get a car, house, 'toy', or some other outcome, change it now to an action. Here's an explanation: Action is about the activities and behaviors you'll engage in order to attain things. So, instead of aiming for a happier relationship with your spouse, resolve to set aside specific times to spend with him/her, like going to the movies and dinner on Tuesday nights.
Make it a REAL experience. in your head, like you're really there and already have it. "REALLY" is the key here, so if your resolution is to successfully ask your boss for that well-deserved raise, then actually run through the experience in your head as though you are actually doing it... Use all of the senses: see that certain look in his face, hear the phones ringing in the the background, smell that scent his office always has, and feel how good it is to be getting what you're worth and communicating that to your employer. Now, there's an extremely important extra step to this aspect of attaining your outcome, and that is to...
STEP OUT of the experience you ran through! Too many people never get their goals because they make the experience in their heads so realistic, that they feel like they've already got it! They never step out of the experience in their heads, and the excitement and compulsion to go after it is lost. Unless you want to be like the old Everly Brother's song. "Dream, dream dream..." step out of the picture and go for it!

Teamwork, Humanity, Equality
Ready, Steady, Bang....
Hardly have they covered 10 to 15 steps, 1 of the smaller girl slipped and fell down, due to bruises and pain she started crying. When other 7 girls heard her, all stopped running, stood for a while, turned back and ran to the girl. One of among them gently enquired. 7 girls lifted the fallen girl, pacified her, all 7 joined hands together and walked together and reached the winning post.
Officials were shocked, many eyes were filled with tears. All participants were spastic children, Yes they were mentally retarded. What did they teach?
Teamwork,
Humanity,
Equality among all
We surely can't do this ever because we have got so called Brain

Most important part of the body....
My mother used to ask me what the most important part of the body is.
Through the years I would take a guess at what I thought was the correct Answer.
When I was younger, I thought sound was very important to us as humans, so I said, "My ears, Mommy."
She said, "No. Many people are deaf. But you keep thinking about it and I will ask you again soon."
Several years passed before she asked me again. Since making my first attempt, I had contemplated the correct answer.
So this time I told her, "Mommy, sight is very important to everybody, so it must be our eyes."
She looked at me and told me, "You are learning fast, but the answer is not correct because there are many people who are blind."
Stumped again, I continued my quest for knowledge and over the years,
Mother asked me a couple more times and always her answer was, "No. But you are getting smarter every year, my child."
Then one year, my grandfather died. Everybody was hurt. Everybody was crying. Even my father cried. I remember that especially because it was only the
second time I saw him cry.
My Mom looked at me when it was our turn to say our final good-bye to my Grandfather. She asked me, "Do you know the most important body part
yet, my dear?" I was shocked when she asked me this now. I always thought this was a game between her and me.
She saw the confusion on my face and told me, "This question is very important. It shows that you have really lived in your life. For every body part you gave me in the
past, I have told you were wrong and I have given you an example why.
But today is the day you need to learn this important lesson."
She looked down at me as only a mother can. I saw her eyes well up with tears. She said, "My dear, the most important body part is your shoulder."
I asked, "Is it because it holds up my head?"
She replied, "No, it is because it can hold the head of a friend or a loved one when they cry. Everybody needs a shoulder to cry on sometime
in life, my dear. I only hope that you have enough love and friends that you will always have a shoulder to cry on when you need it."
Then and there I knew the most important body part is not a selfish one.
It is made for others and not for yourself. It is sympathetic to the pain of others.
People will forget what you said. People will forget what you did . But people will NEVER forget how you made them feel.
