“…the true secret of happiness lies in the taking a genuine interest in all the details of daily life…” — William Morris Siri kuu ya furaha ni kuweka umakini kwenye kila eneo la maisha yako ya kila siku. Chochote kile unachochagus kukifanya, weka mawazo yako yote kwenye kitu hicho. Usifanye (more…)
Tunajua hili kuhusu furaha, kwamba kadiri unavyoikimbiza, ndivyo unavyoikosa. Lakini ukiishi maisha yako na kuiacha furaha itokee, inakuwa na wewe kila wakati. Furaha ni kama kipepeo, ukikikimbiza kinakimbia, ukitulia eneo sahihi kinakufuata. Mafanikio pia ndivyo yalivyo, ukiyakimbiza huyakamati, kila wakati utajiona hufikii mafanikio unayoyataka. Lakini ukiacha kuyakimbiza, yanajitokeza yenyewe. Mafanikio (more…)

Kisayansi (fizikia) kazi inakuwa imefanyika pale nguvu inapokuwa imewekwa kwenye kitu, na kitu hicho kikasogea. Hivyo kama nguvu imewekwa mahali lakini kitu hakijasogea, hakuna kazi iliyofanyika, hata kama nguvu iliyotumika ni kubwa kiasi gani.

“Clever people study in order to know more. Undeserving people study to be more known.” —EASTERN WISDOM Changamoto kubwa kwenye maisha ni kwamba watu wengi hawajifunzi ili kujua, bali wanajifunza ili kujulikana.

Vitu viwili ambavyo wengi hawajui jinsi ya kuvitumia kwa usahihi na hivyo vinaishia kuwapoteza badala ya kuwasaidia kufikia mafanikio makubwa.

“The beginning of a quarrel is like a flood which breaks through a dam. As soon as it rushes through, you cannot stop it.” —The TALMUD Kuanzisha ugomvi ni sawa na maji kuvunja bwawa, yakishatoka huwezi tena kuyazuia.
