Gandul Zilei:
"How we think shows through in how we act. Attitudes are mirrors of the mind. They reflect thinking." (Modul in care gandim e reflectat in modul in care actionam. Atitudinile sunt oglinzi ale mintii. Ele reflecta gandirea.)
David Joseph Schwartz

Meditatia Zilei:
E interesant cum modul de a gandi se reflecta in modul in care actionam, iar modul in care actionam e deseori determinat de atitudinile care "salasuiesc" in noi. E si mai interesant cum human nature-ul are tendinta de a cauta, inventa sau servi in mod infinit scuze ... sub diferite forme felurite (nu, nu e o greseala e scris intentionat asa). Mai mult atunci cand spunem ca am actionat intr-un anumit fel fara sa gandim sau sa realizam ce si cum ... ne expunem, oarecum, ridicolului. De ce? Pentru ca acele lucruri se afla deja inauntru nostru, fac parte din noi si iasa la iveala instinctiv, contrastand cu ceea ce de multe ori ar trebui sa fim. Imi aduc aminte cu placere de cuvintele lui Earl Nightingale care spune: "Atitudinea noastra fata de altii determina atitudinea lor fata de noi." Si cat adevar se ascund in aceste cuvinte, pentru ca nu-i asa prin ceea ce suntem, prin atitudinile noastre fata de cei din jur, de ceea ce ne inconjoara si modul in care relationam cu toate acestea putem cladi sau distruge mult (chiar totul) in cateva clipe.
Cum poti face asta? Cum poti avea un impact pozitiv? Nu o sa ma ofer sa iti "produc" o reteta de succes insa pot sa iti ofer ca si un guideline  posibil cuvintele lui Harold S. Geneen care afirma ca: "Cel mai bun mod de a inspira oamenii catre o performanta superioara este de a-i convinge prin tot ceea ce faci si prin atitudinea ta de zi cu zi ca ii sustii din toata inima."
Alegerea e a ta. Iti apartine in totalitate. Nu uita insa ca "Modul in care gandim e reflectat in modul in care actionam. Atitudinile sunt oglinzi ale mintii. Ele reflecta gandirea." (David Joseph Schwartz)

Melodia Zilei:
CASTING CROWNS LYRICS - "Slow Fade"

Be careful little eyes what you see
It's the second glance that ties your hands as darkness pulls the strings
Be careful little feet where you go
For it's the little feet behind you that are sure to follow

It's a slow fade when you give yourself away
It's a slow fade when black and white have turned to gray 
Thoughts invade, choices are made, a price will be paid
When you give yourself away
People never crumble in a day
It's a slow fade, it's a slow fade

Be careful little ears what you hear
When flattery leads to compromise, the end is always near
Be careful little lips what you say
For empty words and promises lead broken hearts astray

It's a slow fade when you give yourself away
It's a slow fade when black and white have turned to gray 
Thoughts invade, choices are made, a price will be paid
When you give yourself away
People never crumble in a day

The journey from your mind to your hands
Is shorter than you're thinking
Be careful if you think you stand
You just might be sinking

It's a slow fade when you give yourself away
It's a slow fade when black and white have turned to gray
Thoughts invade, choices are made, a price will be paid
When you give yourself away
People never crumble in a day
Daddies never crumble in a day
Families never crumble in a day

Oh be careful little eyes what see
Oh be careful little eyes what you see
For the Father up above is looking down in love
Oh be careful little eyes what you see.
