Words do have Power

(Inspired by an essay from Jim Rohn's, - Your Achievement.)

You might just feel that this is an over statement. What have words got to do with our life. It is all in the thinking. Absolutely right, what the mind thinks, it says, and within you it's the words that convey the message which then prompts action. They say wars begin in the minds of men, which result in words and then action follows.

Over the years I've been seeking out ideas, principles and strategies to life's challenges, I've always tried to simplify things and so I even try to use simple words along with power words and I have come across four simple words that can make living worthwhile.1. Life is worthwhile if you LEARN.

What you don't know WILL hurt you, at some point of time or the other. You've got to be well equipped. You have to have learning to exist, let alone succeed. Life is worthwhile if you learn from your own experiences - negative or positive. We learn to do it right by first sometimes doing it wrong. We call that a positive negative. We also learn from other people's experiences, both positive and negative. Learning from other people's experiences and mistakes is valuable information because we can learn what not to do without the pain of having tried and failed ourselves.We learn by what we see so pay attention. We learn by what we hear so be a good listener. We learn from what we read so learn from every source; learn from lectures; learn from songs; learn from sermons; learn from conversations with people who care. Always keep learning. It should become a daily-ritual.

LEARN SOMETHING NEW EVERYDAY AND TRASMIT THAT LEARNING TO SOMEONE ELSE TOO ON A DAILY BASIS SO THAT YOUR LEARNING GETS STRENGTHED BY REPETITION.2. Life is worthwhile if you TRY.

You can't just learn; now you have to try something to see if you can do it. Try to make a difference, try to make some progress, try to learn a new skill, try to learn a new sport. It doesn't mean you can do everything, but there are a lot of things you can do, if you just try. Try your best. Give it every effort. Why not go all out?3. Life is worthwhile if you STAY.

In cricket there is a standard lesson all coaches will give you STAY @ the wicket for a while and you will see runs flowing. You have to stay till you harvest. If you have committed for a game or for the project - see it through, till the end. Sometimes unforeseen things may happen, then it is worth wrapping it up. And that's the end, but just don't end in the middle. Maybe on the next game or project you pass, but on this one, if you signed up, see it through.
And lastly,

4. Life is worthwhile if you CARE.

If you care at all you will get some results, if you care enough you can get incredible results. Care enough to make a difference. Care enough to turn somebody around. Care enough to start a new enterprise. Care enough to change it all. Care enough to be the highest producer. Care enough to set some records. Care enough to win.Care enough to train and help others win and of course taking CARE of your own self and all those around you.

Four simple but very powerful little words: learn, try, stay and care.

What difference can you make in your life today by putting these words to work?
