Laughter is medicine. It heals ills and sustains sanity.
Learn to be able to laugh at yourself and your circumstances. Don’t laugh at another’s expense. Fill your home with laughter. Fill your workplace with joy. Steer clear of the crude and the rude. There is so much more to laugh about if you use your imagination. Timing is crucial when it comes to laughter, but with practice you will master the art. If you need practice, hire a comedy video and lock yourself in a room where you can let loose with a huge laugh from the depths of your being. You’ll notice the difference. For he or she who laughs lasts.

The good news for you is that when you know how to
create an abundant, positive mindset yourself, you
can achieve ANYTHING you want — whether in life
or in business!
All it takes is a simple formula:
No.1 — Set out your intention and goal
No.2 — Make yourself attractive to that which you
wish to attain or achieve
No.3 — Use visualizations that involve all 5 of
your senses to see and feel the outcome that you want
No.4 — Take some action — even if it’s small! —
to put the ball in motion
Before you know it, you’ll have ANYTHING you can
imagine!
P.S. If you’re excited about the idea of achieving your
10 year goal in 100 days, then you’re absolutely going
to love what you find on the other side of this link.
Pain may sometimes be the reason why people change. Getting flunked grades make us realize that we need to study. Debts remind us of our inability to look for a source of income. Being humiliated gives us the ‘push’ to speak up and fight for ourselves to save our face from the next embarrassments. It may be a bitter experience, a friend’s tragic story, a great movie, or an inspiring book that will help us get up and get just the right amount of motivation we need in order to improve ourselves.
With the countless negativities the world brings about, how do we keep motivated? Try on the tips I prepared from A to Z
A – Achieve your dreams. Avoid negative people, things and places. Eleanor Roosevelt once said, “the future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.”
B – Believe in your self, and in what you can do.
C – Consider things on every angle and aspect. Motivation comes from determination. To be able to understand life, you should feel the sun from both sides.
D – Don’t give up and don’t give in. Thomas Edison failed once, twice, more than thrice before he came up with his invention and perfected the incandescent light bulb. Make motivation as your steering wheel.
E – Enjoy. Work as if you don’t need money. Dance as if nobody’s watching. Love as if you never cried. Learn as if you’ll live forever. Motivation takes place when people are happy.
F – Family and Friends are life’s greatest ‘F’ treasures. Don’t loose sight of them.
G – Give more than what is enough. Where does motivation and self improvement take place at work? At home? At school? When you exert extra effort in doing things.
H – Hang on to your dreams. They may dangle in there for a moment, but these little stars will be your driving force.
I – Ignore those who try to destroy you. Don’t let other people to get the best of you. Stay out of toxic people the kind of friends who hates to hear about your success.
J – Just be yourself. The key to success is to be yourself. And the key to failure is to try to please everyone.
K- Keep trying no matter how hard life may seem. When a person is motivated, eventually he sees a harsh life finally clearing out, paving the way to self improvement.
L – Learn to love your self. Now isn’t that easy?
M – Make things happen. Motivation is when your dreams are put into work clothes.
N – Never lie, cheat or steal. Always play a fair game.
O – Open your eyes. People should learn the horse attitude and horse sense. They see things in 2 ways how they want things to be, and how they should be.
P – Practice makes perfect. Practice is about motivation. It lets us learn repertoire and ways on how can we recover from our mistakes.
Q – Quitters never win. And winners never quit. So, choose your fate are you going to be a quitter? Or a winner?
R – Ready yourself. Motivation is also about preparation. We must hear the little voice within us telling us to get started before others will get on their feet and try to push us around. Remember, it wasn’t raining when Noah build the ark.
S – Stop procrastinating.
T – Take control of your life. Discipline or self control jives synonymously with motivation. Both are key factors in self improvement.
U – Understand others. If you know very well how to talk, you should also learn how to listen. Yearn to understand first, and to be understood the second.
V – Visualize it. Motivation without vision is like a boat on a dry land.
W – Want it more than anything. Dreaming means believing. And to believe is something that is rooted out from the roots of motivation and self improvement.
X – X Factor is what will make you different from the others. When you are motivated, you tend to put on “extras” on your life like extra time for family, extra help at work, extra care for friends, and so on.
Y – You are unique. No one in this world looks, acts, or talks like you. Value your life and existence, because you’re just going to spend it once.
Contrary to popular belief, attracting abundance is not a secret that only the rich and famous can do. The rest of us just don’t know the ways. Further discouraging is the belief “in order to make money you must have money”. Attracting abundance however is different.The belief is so long as you have faith in it,you can have it.
It seems way too simple to be true, doesn’t it? The people who succeed using these principles will tell you that it worked for them so it will work for you too! There is little doubt that a person’s outlook on life,no matter what happens,will make the difference We all know at least one person who seems to have the worst of luck,and yet they’re still happy as can be. It doesn’t matter what life throws at them,they always come out of it smiling and cheerful.
And we also probably know someone who has everything and yet they’re still miserable. We don’t comprehend how this person can be so unhappy when they have everything one could ever want in life. You do this buy attracting what you’re surrounded with. He may be financially sound,but he still attracts sadness and despair.
In attracting abundance,you need a change of mind. Just like the person who seems to have bad luck constantly,and yet they’re always happy,you need to see the positive side to life. You need to believe that attracting abundance will work for you. Even if the person who has terrible luck concentrates on the finer things in life,good things will happen. However that person has learned to see the positive in all things that we would probably see as negative. Focusing on the positive energy allows goodness to flow through,even in terrible situations.
Attracting abundance is similar in a way. The person who believes he’ll always be hopeless and poor will probably always have financial problems,because this is what he believes in. His thoughts will reflect the same outcome. If the person changes his thinking and decides what he wants,and faithfully believes in it,he’ll attract positive energy. If you dwell in abundant thoughts and believe in them,you’ll begin to see results.
A principle in the law of abundance, is the universe creates the right amount for everyone. And though a person may seem to have more than others,others will not go empty handed. Enough exists for everyone to use it as he or she desires. If you believe in attracting abundance,and your positive thoughts are radiant,you can be sure that you’ll have enough positive energy to make your abundant thoughts come true.

"Working to make you and your clients smile!"
Pick TWO of the three options!
When commissioning Corporate Cartoons you must choose only two out of the three options.
Good+Fast = Expensive Choose this and I'll postpone every other project on my drawing board, my round of golf or give up my footy match ticket and work day and night to get your job done. It WILL NOT BE CHEAP though!
Good+Cheap = Slow Choose good and cheap and I'll still do a great job at a discounted price. But you'll have to be patient while I fit you in after my higher paying clients, updating my web site, going down the gym, my footy matches, rounds of golf and liquid lunches!
Fast+Cheap = Inferior Choose this option at your peril. It will still be delivered on time but it will be inferior, I'll cut as many corners as possible. You know the saying 'You get what you pay for!' The least favorable option in my opinion!
