ATTITUDE
The most significant change in a persons life is a
change of attitude. Right attitudes produce right
actions.
A positive attitude is not a destination. It is a
way of life.
A positive attitude is like a magnet for positive
results.
Our life is a reflection of our attitudes.

WHY
WHY

RICH COUNTRIES ARE RICH?

POOR COUNTRIES ARE POOR?

The difference is notthe age of the country.

India & Egypt, that are more than 2000 years old and
are poor.
On the other hand, Canada, Australia & New Zealand,
that 150 years ago were inexpressive, today are
developed countries and are rich.

This is not because of availibility of natural resources

i.e. Japan has a limited territory, 80% mountainous,

inadequate for agriculture & cattle raising, but it is
the second world economy.

Race or skin color are also not important:

Happy human relationship

It is the people in our lives who bring us the most happiness.

Family, friends and co-workers, who are part of our inner
circle, share our experiences, hopes and dreams, successes
and frustrations, joys and pains. The key to happiness is a
harmonious relationship with the people in our lives.

A successful marriage (I)

More and more studies are revealing the importance of a

happy, healthy relationship. Happily married people are
healthier, better adjusted, more successful and more wealthy
than their unhappily married or single counterparts.
Every marriage deserves a fair chance, no matter where it is
now, and no matter what you or your spouse have done (or
not done). You may have tried to change things with little
success. You may be wondering if there is any hope for the
relationship. Many marriages are in a similar place.

(III)

Don't break up; wake up and make up!

Married couples can learn how to

stay together and reap the
harvest of real and lasting love.
Singles can learn how to keep a
relationship growing, instead of
stopping it before it starts. The
truth is that men and women are
actually very much alike even
though the ways we behave and
express ourselves can make it
seem like "men are from Mars
and women are from Venus."
Both men and women are from
Earth and we can all learn to
change and enjoy the ride!

A happy family (I)

Parents always try to prove the

benefits of being honest when
you are a little child. A good story
in this regard is .One day the
child Washington chop down his
farther s favorite cherry tree;
although knowing he would
deserve to be punished, he told
his father the truth. Unexpected,
his farther apprised him rather
than executing a punishment;
moreover, he was encouraged to
maintain the good manner all the
time. As known to all, the honest
boy eventually became one of
the greatest presidents in
American history.

A happy family (II)

More people disregard their passion and

interests and choose careers based on job
security, pay and professional promotion.
As a result, they find themselves isolated
and without friends. Loneliness is a
common tragedy that destroys lives.
Actually we were old enough to
remember the old saying "Money
doesnt buy happiness", yet we strive
for the material objects and pay a
high price.
The essence of happiness is the
unconditionally love we have for the
people in our lives and their
unconditionally love for us.
