Others will say yes immediately sans second thoughts and without batting an eyelash. It's easy to say that you would do anything to be successful. But really, huh?
They say that your job won't take care of you when you get sick, so better take care of your relationships and the people close to you.
Yes, you'd have awards, plaques, higher paycheck, promotion, admiration (envy even) everywhere, and some pats on the back, but after that, what? How about your health, spirituality and relationships? Will success compensate if all these will be gone or suffer?
You can't have it all...at once, so know your priorities.

This article is from our guest author, Virginie, of www.shinyjourney.com.
Grief is a feeling of suffering from something that happens to you. It comes when you have an emotional attachment to someone. For example, you suffer for the death of a family member and not of a stranger you see on the news. Why? The only difference between the stranger and the family member is attachment, because in reality, they are both dead.
We've been used not to accept reality. For example, death isn't acceptable, it shouldn't happen. But who can tell us what is normal and not? Why a “good” thing is normal and a “bad” thing is abnormal? Maybe, we should think about the fact that there are no good or wrong things, there are just facts, there is just reality.

There's a reason why you've got friends--it's because they like you! So don't try to label yourself a Loser because nobody wants to hang out with a loser. Don't try to sound like you are your own worst enemy, because your friends are there for you.
Don't be a downer; if you hang out with your friends and update each other with your lives, instead of conveniently discussing about your current problems bombarding you, also try to talk about possible solutions to it. Don't forget that your friends are on your side (mostly), so they want to feel that you're also on your side, also.

Setting your own personal boundaries is important so that you'll avoid becoming a doormat, keeping your self-esteem intact, and saying no without feeling guilty. After all, you are taking care of your personal needs, as each of us do, so, why feel guilty saying no to some things you can't commit to?
When you set personal boundaries for yourself, you fortify your inner shield, knowing you can stand up for yourself and most of all, you don't have to be pressured to please others (which most of the time, you don't even like).

Have you ever felt hopeless in your life? Feelings of hopelessness arises when you start entertaining thoughts like saying these: "What's the use of trying?"
"I'll never be happy in my life.", "Nothing will ever work out.", "The whole world is against me, it's hopeless."
These feelings of hopelessness is much more aggravated when you began to isolate yourself and refuse to see your friends and those people who may try to help you and connect with you.
First thing to realize is, no matter how hopeless you may feel, there are still things you can do right now, to bring you out of the sad territory.

They say that being lucky is being at the right place at the right time. But according to Richard Wiseman, PhD, author of "The Luck Factor", "being in the right place at the right time is actually all about being in the right state of mind."
If you want to get lucky, you have to bear in mind that "you're surrounded by opportunities", so you have to really open and prepare your mind out there. If you notice, lucky people are the most highly outgoing and they catch opportunities because they get involved in the world. Let's face it, nobody gets lucky when you get stuck all day at home, right? Real things happen when you go out there and mingle.
To get lucky, smile and build your stronghold of luck.

Two Things Which Separate Us From The Millionaires
Have you realized that it's not too late to achieve your goals, to be wealthy or to do what you've always dreamed of? Okay, so let's focus on the second one--to get rich. why did all those successful and rich moguls (Donald Trump, Warren Buffet, Bill Gates to name a few) have become multi-millionaires or billionaires in their own right, and why not...YOU?
Yes, have you realized that? That we're all been given the same 24 hours in a day, we eat, we sleep, we wake up, we got the same two arms and legs, and they get wealthy, and become millionaires! But why not us, or why not you? I mean, what's the difference?
I attended a seminar about the mindsets of the millionaires, and the only thing which separates millionaires from the average earner is their ATTITUDE--It's the DECISION that they made which made them wealthy, that they're ready to become rich and they ACT on it!
Success or being rich doesn't depend on the school you attended (or not) nor your educational attainment (Mark Zuckerberg was a Harvard dropout).

Network With The Gatekeepers To Help You Succeed At Work
Yes, you want to climb the corporate ladder alright, but don't make the common mistake of bypassing or even neglecting the influence of the gatekeepers
Yes, the gatekeepers are those experts (and insiders) in their respective departments like bookkeepers, assistants, secretaries, messengers, cafeteria employees, custodians. If you want to make it to the top, don't forget to network or at least be in good terms with people at the bottom rung.
Why is that you may ask? Well, they may not be the ultimate decision makers, but they can be influential since they were the ones selected and filtered by the CEOs and bosses themselves.

Do You Know That Our Imperfections Are What Makes Us Beautiful?
Angelina Jolie's bulging veins in her arms, Lindsay Lohan's freckles, and Megan Fox's thumb. Yes, guys--some of the most heavenly creatures you considered beautiful are not all...perfect.
If you think about what makes us beautiful, it can be our imperfections--those same things which makes us less perfect and unique. If you look at someone with perfect symmetry, bone structure and ideal proportions, sure, they can be eye-catching and surely attractive, but it can get boring sometimes, looking at them for such a long time. Sure, they captivate attention and make people take a second look, but that's it--after a while, it's no longer interesting, gradually, it becomes predictable.

Do You Find It Difficult To Earn Someone's Trust?
Maybe it's the aura or 'look' you project, or its' your personality. But if we go deeper beyond surface issues, trusting someone is simply more than just meets the eye. They say that you can't get anyone's trust--you have to earn it. Some find it easy to have faith in someone that easily, while others are too wary in trusting someone.
*Take note that you can't earn someone's trust overnight. The more you spend some time together (bonding), the more you build and establish rapport with one another.
*You got to treat everyone the same respect as you want to be treated.
