However, there are few that truly have the motivation to put forward the needed effort and action, and make the necessary sacrifices to get what they want. |

Set No Wake-Up Calls in 2010

The countdown for the New Year has started.

Losing and gaining are two sides of the same coin
by
If I live to be a hundred, I’ll still remember Friday, January 28, 1983. It was a bright sunny day, and I blissfully sang “I’m on the top of the world!” off-key as I dressed for work. The day before, the company physician had confirmed what... |

Living willfully in 2010
by Guest Tickler
As responsible adults, we are encouraged to create both a Will and a Living Will. Wouldn't it be great to also create a document that declares how we want to live! It could be called a "Living Willfully Declaration." This document wouldn't divide up what we have, or detail how we want to leave with dignity, but instead it would bear witness to the principles and values we want our lives to express. By Living Willfully, I mean living with intention and integrity, purpose and determination, mindfulness and just action. It means consciously choosing how we want to respond to life instead of simply reacting. |

The Art of Making Choices
by Patrick Lim
Choice of career, choice of spouse, choice of investment, the list goes on. Is it by instinct or “gut feeling” or do we actually analyse the important decisions we make in life? |

My Turning Point in Life
by Chitra Jha
I was living a beautiful, content life of marital bliss, enjoying motherhood and generally just being there. Life was good, I believed in myself, God was not a word in my lexicon; I passed my leisure reading fiction and watching movies. But, and it is a big ‘but’, at times I felt that there was more in me. |
