Defining Your Purpose:


"When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project, all your thoughts break their bonds; your mind transcends limitations, your consciousness expands in every direction, and you find yourself in a new, great and wonderful world. Dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive, and you discover yourself to be a greater person by far than you ever dreamed yourself to be."
—Patanjali (c. 1st to 3rd century BC)

"Work is love made visible." —Khalil Gibran

"There is magic in believing in our capabilities at the moment, believing in our future potential, believing that we are worthy beings with a purpose for being alive." —Anonymous

Creating your Purpose:

"Until one is committed, there is hesitancy
the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness.

Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation).
there is one elementary truth the ignorance of which
kills countless ideas and splendid plans:

That moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too.

All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred.

A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in ones favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamed would have come his way.

Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it.
Boldness has genius, power and magic in it.
Begin it now."— Goethe

How We Can Be Inspired by Geese


When you see geese flying in a "V" formation, you might be interested in knowing what scientists have discovered about why they fly that way.

1. FACT: As each bird flaps its wings it creates an uplift for the bird immediately following. By flying in a "V" formation, the whole flock adds at least 71 percent greater flying range than if each bird flew on its own.

TRUTH: People who share a common direction and sense of community can get where they are going quicker and easier because they are traveling on the trust of one another.

2. FACT: Whenever a goose falls out of formation, it suddenly feels the drag and resistance of trying to go it alone and quickly gets back into formation to take advantage of the lifting power of the bird immediately in front.

TRUTH: There is strength and power and safety in numbers when traveling in the same direction with whom we share a common goal.

3. FACT: When the lead goose gets tired, he rotates back in the wing and another goose flies point.

TRUTH: It pays to take turns doing hard jobs.

4. FACT: The geese honk from behind to encourage those up front to keep up their speed.

TRUTH: We all need to be remembered with active support and praise.

5. FACT: When a goose gets sick or is wounded and falls out, two geese fall out of formation and follow him down to help and protect him. They stay with him until the crisis resolves, and then they launch out on their own or with another formation to catch up with their group.

TRUTH: We must stand by each other in times of need.We Are Fortunate That There Are More Geese In Life Than Turkeys.

Let's Remember To Uphold Each Other In Friendship And Give Each Other A Big "Honk" More Often!!!
