Everything is material for the seed of happiness, if you look into it with inquisitiveness and curiosity. The future is completely open, and we are writing it moment to moment.
There always is the potential to create an environment of blame –
or one that is conducive to loving-kindness.
- Pema Chodron

Morning Inspiration September 2, 2010

Sustainability isn’t about the quick fix or the cheap solution.

Generally it means making a commitment and trying, as best we can, to honor it. In any worthwhile enterprise, from protecting the environment to preserving a relationship, we are going to encounter difficulties.

The good life is not a problem-free life. In point of fact, the process of overcoming adversity often produces some of the most rewarding experiences we will ever have.

Human beings need to be challenged to ‘test their mettle,’ as it were.

Throwing in the towel at the first sign of trouble or small inkling of distress may be the easy thing to do, but it doesn’t help our self-concept.

Most of life’s troubles can be overcome if we are willing to work through them with patience.

Hope is itself a species of happiness, and perhaps,
the chief happiness which this world affords.

Greenwood Village Fall
“Autumn begins with a subtle change in the light, with skies a deeper blue, and nights that become suddenly clear and chilled.
The season comes full with the first frost, the disappearance of migrant birds, and the harvesting of the season’s last crops.”
-   Glenn Wolff and Jerry Dennis

Little girl

Desire is the key to motivation, but it's the determination and commitment to an unrelenting pursuit of your goal – a commitment to excellence – that will enable you to attain the success you seek.

FYI: To all my loyal readers.



I will be moving the InspirationMorning blog this week to another server. So, there might be a short disruption of InspirationMorning.



I will try to do this in off hours. But not to worry it should only take about an hour.



Hopefully, you will notice nothing until this is over and then see the slightly new format!



Thanks for your kind support,

Kristina

Deliver me from all evildoers that talk nothing but sickness and failure. Grant me the companionship of men who think success and men who work for it.

Loan me associates who cheerfully face the problems of a day and try hard to overcome them. Relieve me of all cynics and critics.

Give me good health and the strength to be of real service to the world, and I'll get all that's good for me, and will what's left to those who want it.

~ William Feather

"No one ever attains very eminent success by simply doing what is required of him; it is the amount and excellence of what is over and above the required that determines the greatness of ultimate distinction." ~Charles Kendall Adams
