You are what you eat, so here's a good snack for your mind.

“Just know, when you truly want success, you’ll never give up on it. No matter how bad the situation may get.”

“Happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, or worn. It is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace & gratitude.” - Denis Waitley

“Go where you are celebrated – not tolerated. If they can’t see the real value of you, it’s time for a new start.”

“Don’t be afraid to stand for what you believe in, even if that means standing alone.”

“The only thing that stands between you and your dream is the will to try and the belief that it is actually possible.” – Joel Brown

“Three things you cannot recover in life: a WORD after it’s said, a MOMENT after it’s missed and TIME after it’s gone. Be Careful!”

“Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.”

“When the past calls, let it go to voicemail, believe me, it has nothing new to say.”

“Life has two rules: #1 Never quit. #2 Always remember rule # 1.”

How to "jump start" a car that has a dead battery:


1. Position both cars close together so the jump leads will reach both batteries.

2. Then connect the car battery booster cables in this order ;

a. Connect (+) positive red cable to the (+) positive terminal on the dead battery.
b. Connect the other end of the (+) positive red cable to (+) positive terminal on the working car.
c. Connect (-) negative black cable to (-) negative terminal on the working car.
d. Connect the other end of the (-) negative cable to the (-) negative terminal on the dead battery.

3. You are now ready to start the working car's engine. Turn off all electrical equipment on the working car (heater, lights, radio, etc.) so that all the battery power is getting used to jump start the dead battery. Let the working car run for a minute or so before you try to start the dead one. Revving the engine in the working car a little bit will produce more current and help with jumping the dead battery.

4. Now try and start the dead battery engine by turning the ignition. If it sounds like it is going to start but will not quite go, then rev the working car for a little while longer before trying the dead battery again.

5. When the dead battery has started and is running, remove the jump leads.
Do this in reverse order:

a. Disconnect (-) negative black cable from the terminal on dead battery.
b. Disconnect (-) negative black cable from the (-) negative terminal on the working car.
c. Disconnect (+) positive red cable from the (+) positive terminal on the working car.
d. Disconnect (+) positive red cable from the (+) positive terminal on the dead battery.

WORTH SEEING AGAIN

I've read this before, and when I came across it today, I almost passed it by. But I decided, "Okay, I'll give it another look", and I am sure glad I did. Check it out:

When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the 2 beers.

A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.

The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.

The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full.  The students responded with a unanimous 'yes.'

The professor then produced two beers from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed.

'Now,' said the professor as the laughter subsided, 'I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The golf balls are the important things---your family, your children, your health, your friends and your favorite passions---and if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full. The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house and your car.  The sand is everything else---the small stuff.

'If you put the sand into the jar first,' he continued, 'there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life.

If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff you will never have room for the things that are important to you.

Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.

Spend time with your children. Spend time with your parents. Visit with grandparents. Take your spouse out to dinner. Play another 18. There will always be time to clean the house and mow the lawn.

Take care of the golf balls first---the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.

One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the beer represented. The professor smiled and said, 'I'm glad you asked.' The beer just shows you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for a couple of beers with a friend.

Need a break?

Here's a website that has a bunch of animals who apparently don't realize that the economy is in a funk, the presidential race is a mess, or any of the other things they should be depressed about. Clueless... go ahead, make you day just a little better and click on this:
