Dear Friends,
ALL ENDURING SUCCESS IS FOUNDED UPON HARMONIOUS HUMAN RELATIONSHIPS.
Most of us are incapable of "going it alone" - (Are there any who believe they have been RAMBO's in their life). Whether it is in our careers, our personal relationships or in life, we all need others (team or a companion), if we are to achieve the level of success we desire. Besides, what's the point of having it all, if we have no one we care about to share it?
You may choose to work with others, you may ignore them, or you may choose to work against them, but the greatest successes in life come to those who work harmoniously with others. When your personal goals coincide with those of another, not only does the power of your combined labors benefit you, but such cooperation also creates a synergistic effect that allows you to achieve far more than the simple sum of your individual efforts.
Remember that "friendship freely given and gratefully received is one of life's greatest gifts".
Cheers,
B

Don't Give Up
Dear Friends,
I BELIEVE, EDISON FAILED 10,000 TIMES BEFORE PERFECTING THE INCANDESCENT ELECTRIC LIGHTBULB.
DON'T WORRY IF YOU FAIL ONCE.
Arguably America's greatest inventor, Thomas Edison had an extraordinarily positive perception of life that greatly enhanced his ability as an inventory. When others might have been hopelessly discouraged after failing thousands of times in an attempt to develop an electric light, the great Edison simply viewed each unsuccessful experiment as the elimination of a solution that wouldn't work, thereby moving him that much closer to a successful solution.
We could all take a lesson from Edison. Stories abound about inventors who quit trying and gave up too soon or miners who struck gold just a few feet beyond where someone else quit digging. There are few obstacles in life that will not succumb to consistent, sustained, intelligent, positive action. When you are discouraged after you've failed at something, remember Edison's 10,000 failures before he arrived at the solution that forever changed the world.
I am sure that this would change our lives. Failure is a reality and we only learn through failure thus don't fear but look at the same in the positive light and you will succeed.
Cheers,
B
