Thanks Savinda. Decide and you will define your goals eventually. Track your progress no matter. With self talk and integrity this way it helps you manage your focus on your goals. With self-discipline towards achieving your goals rewarding yourself of every tiny bit of success. You will realize your goals. I know I mentioned goals many times.

I KNOW A LOT OF PEOPLE WON'T BE ABLE TO FIGURE OUT THIS SIMPLE CONCEPT, WHICH IS REALLY THE REAL MEANING OF ALL, YES ALL OF THE CONCEPTS IN THIS MOTIVATIONAL PRESENTATIONS, EMPOWERING OF ONE SELF, LEARNED BEHAVIOR, FOCUS, TIME MANAGEMENT, ACHIEVING SUCCESS, ETC... THIS SIMPLE CONCEPT THAT SIMPLIFIES ALL OF THE ABOVE IN NINE WORDS AND CHANGES OUR LIVES AND HELP US ACHIEVE THE MOST THAT THIS GIVEN LIFE-EXPERIENCE THAT WE LIVE IS THIS:
"THE POINT OF POWER IS IN THE PRESENT MOMENT" SO FORGET THE PAST, JUST USE IT AS FEEDBACK OF WHAT WAS DONE AND DON'T LOOK AT IT AS A MISTAKE BUT AS A SPRINGBOARD FOR THE EXPERIENCES LEARNED THAT HAS SHAPED YOUR LIFE INTO WHAT YOU ARE TODAY, NOT AS A WASTE OF TIME BUT AS ACCUMULATED KNOWLEDGE YOU CAN USE TO COMPARE YOUR POSITION IN THE PRESENT. ALSO, FORGET THE FUTURE WHICH DOESN'T EXIST YET, IT WILL ONLY BE WHAT YOU MAKE OF IT BY FOCUSING IN "THE PRESENT MOMENT" AND EMPOWER YOURSELVES.

Namaste

"Concentration is said to be the mind which, outgrowing the dualism between the meditator and meditation, gradually dwells

exclusively on the object (of meditation) and is like a flame in a windless spot"

Adhyatma Upanishad Verse 35

[bibichloe]

Beautiful message to take home. Thank you!

[hear-and-know]

Honestly, that's not a presentation or a talk, that's a monologue. It's not getting anywhere...
