Part 16 of an occasional series
I am a collector of quotations. I have been ever since I learned how to write, I mean professionally, not in primary school.
I am particularly fond of what I like to call "pithy prose". These short quotations can cover an unlimited variety of subjects: love, religion, politics, human nature, etc. What unites them is their ability to say more in one or two sentences than could be expressed in a thousand-word treatise. It's like being able to pour a liter of liquid into a half-liter bottle.
They are superb examples of Mark Twain's famous dictum, "The difference between the right word and the almost right word is the difference between lightning and a lightning bug."
In principle, all writers and public speakers are capable of producing pithy prose, but clearly some are better at it than others.
Any collection of pithy prose must necessarily be biased in terms of what it includes and excludes. I make no apologies for my selections, only for the hundreds of other meritorious quotations I had to leave out.
No one will agree with all these quotations; this was not their intention. You may even find some of them repugnant or outrageous. This was their intention.
We seldom learn anything of value from what we already agree with. Only those ideas that grate on our nerves can open our minds. As with oysters, irritation can produce pearls. So if anything you are about to read annoys or shocks you, try to think clearly and dispassionately about what it is saying. You will either be confirmed in your current belief or shaken into re-examining it.
Either way, you win!
This article is part of an occasional series. In each article, I will be offering more amusing, educating, and exasperating quotations to your judgment. But just to be certain that we agree on what we are talking about, here it is in a nutshell.
Pithy Prose: A quotation where at first you may not be quite certain what it means. But when you become certain, you become equally certain that it couldn't have been said better any other way. In short, big ideas in small packages.
If you have a better definition of pithy prose, please contact me. I would love to hear it.

5. An atheist may be simply one whose faith and love are concentrated on the impersonal aspects of God.
6. As soon as men know that they can kill without fear of punishment or blame, they kill; or at least they encourage killers with approving smiles.

10. Every time that I think of the crucifixion of Christ, I commit the sin of envy.
11. Evil being the root of mystery, pain is the root of knowledge.
12. Evil, when we are in its power, is not felt as evil, but as a necessity, even a duty.
13. Human beings are so made that the ones who do the crushing feel nothing; it is the person crushed who feels what is happening. Unless one has placed oneself on the side of the oppressed, to feel with them, one cannot understand.
14. Humility is attentive patience.
15. I can, therefore I am.
16. I suffer more from the humiliations inflicted by my country than from those inflicted on her.

23. It is an eternal obligation toward the human being not to let him suffer from hunger when one has a chance of coming to his assistance.
24. It is not the cause for which men took up arms that makes a victory more or less just. It is the order that is established when arms have been laid down.

The intelligent man who is proud of his intelligence is like the condemned man who is proud of his large cell.
34. The most important part of teaching is to teach what it is to know.
35. The only way into truth is through one's own annihilation, through dwelling a long time in a state of extreme and total humiliation.
36. The role of intelligence -- that part of us which affirms and denies and formulates opinions -- is merely to submit.
We can only know one thing about God -- that He is what we are not. Our wretchedness alone is an image of this. The more we contemplate it, the more we contemplate Him.
42. We must prefer real hell to an imaginary paradise.
43. What a country calls its vital interests are not things that help its people live, but things that help it make war.
44. Whatever debases intelligence degrades the entire human being.
45. When a contradiction is impossible to resolve except by a lie, then we know that it is really a door.

Without these challenges and your ability to overcome them, you can't build up your self-esteem. If you never overcome challenges the self-esteem you have starts to deteriorate.
Pick A Challenge
Regardless of the type of challenge you decide on, the most important part is to begin as soon as possible. Procrastinating will do you no good, and the sooner you start making some changes, the sooner you will experience the benefits this can give you.
* Find a new career path. If you see no bright future in your current job, quit. Find a job that will give you the compensation and satisfaction that you deserve.
* Improve your health by shedding a few pounds and making a few changes in your daily diet.
* Take up a new hobby like playing a musical instrument, scuba-diving or starting your own vegetable garden.
These are the types of challenges that will take a considerable amount of time to overcome, and that's perfectly fine. You don't need instantaneous results. The important thing is to get up and get started, and you will soon find yourself brimming with new found confidence.
Creating a Timetable for Achieving Your Goals
Start off with one large long term goal and divide into smaller more manageable pieces. If you want to lose 20 lbs in 4 months, start with smaller goals of 5 lbs a month.
Giving yourself reasonable deadlines will also encourage you to make wise use of your time. In the process, if you find your timetable too lenient, you can increase stringency to further challenge you more.
Keep Track of Your Achievements
These acknowledgements give you the boost of confidence you are going to need to finish up the long term part of the goal.
* Every night write down everything you have accomplished in 24 hours.
* Create a reading list and check all the books you've read so far.
* Place a notepad by the weighing scale to record your weight loss progress.
The small victories that you achieve on a daily basis will compound the confidence you feel in yourself. The momentum will speed up and you are likely to achieve your goals earlier than you originally set.
Get Support from Other People
Have friends that support you in your endeavor. If you have a friend that will work with you to accomplish the same goal, that's even better.
If you continue this practice of overcoming challenges then your self-confidence will always be at a high, and you will have more rewarding life for it.

]]>Time Management Basics
One of the best habits you can develop to effectively manage your time well is to maintain a list of daily chores. Writing down your tasks will give you a sense of control and enable you to accomplish more in less time.
After you accomplish your goal mark it off on your schedule of tasks. It gives you a peace of mind and the encouragement to continue on with your day.
* Every morning take a look at your list of tasks and adjust them so you are doing the most important things first. Then make sure you have time to do them all. If you need to push some things out until tomorrow. The purpose of having a list is to get things done and relieve stress not cause stress and lose focus.
* If you have an appointment be sure to make a call to them and see if the appointment is still on. You don't want to waste time going all the way over there and find out that it's been canceled. You could have use that time to get other things done.
Say No When You Need To
All too often, people find themselves in over their head in projects and other commitments simply because they don't have the heart to say no to a client or a friend in need. However, if you stretch yourself too thin, you will no longer be able to perform to the best of your abilities and this will compromise the quality of your results.
If you find yourself in a situation where someone asks for help, you first need to take a look at your schedule and see if you can get your responsibilities accomplished and still have time to help them. If not, say no.
* Budget your time in advance. If you can't take on anymore obligations don't.
* Make sure you know all the facts. Don't take a project before you know how much time and effort it will take. Also, consider what may go wrong, because it takes time to fix these things.
If you are a particularly busy person, you will probably have tons of things to do and it is perfectly natural to forget some appointments and meetings. You can avoid being late by using the alarm function on your wristwatch or your mobile device.
Set a Highly Organized Schedule
There are dozens of activities that you need to perform every single day, such as preparing to work every morning or cooking the family's dinner at night. Organize your schedule such that these chores are clustered, giving your more time for your other tasks.
* Before leaving the house in the morning, make sure that everything in the kitchen has been tidied up. When everything is clean, you can go home later in the day to a fresh and relaxing environment.
* After you get home from work make sure to put your things in their place. Don't make a bigger mess for yourself. Then make sure to keep going. There is no reason to lye down before dinner.
With these helpful time management tips, you will be able to accomplish more and make the most of your day.

Unfortunately many of us are not born with such talents for creativity. None the less, you can boost your creative energies with many different types of techniques.
Creativity is manifested by different individuals in different ways. It's hard to gauge how creative you are in comparison with other people. All you can do is hone your own skills and expand your creativity as well as you can.
Unleashing Your Inner Artist
In the journey to creativity, there are hundreds of different roads you can take. However, there are a few methods that may be more effective than others, and we will be discussing them right here.
1. Write Down 100 Creative Ideas
Take a seat in a quiet place and start writing any creative idea that comes to mind. None of the ideas have to be related to one another and it doesn't have to be something you know how to do or bring to life. Simply write down your thoughts. In fact it's better to not go back and edit yourself.
2. Take Part In Activities That Incite Your Five Senses
Watching an art exhibit, dining at a new restaurant and listening to various music genres are among the best examples. The more frequently you do these activities, the more attuned you will be to each of your senses.
3. Read Books That Motivate You
Motivational books and quotes are great ways to exercise you creative mind. Many of these inspirational words stick with you and help creativity in the long run.
4. Take A Break From The Ordinary
The hustle and bustle of urban living can suppress the bursting creativity within you. You might be surprised at the difference that a short weekend in the country can do for you.
5. Paint Your Walls Yellow
According to many psychologists around the world, surrounding yourself with this color is quite effective in encouraging the flow of your creative juices. This is why many artists' studios and architectural offices have yellow walls.
6. Ask Someone To Share Their Creativity
Just find someone and start talking about creative things. The more you vent and the more you hear the more the two of you will come up with. It causes a snowball effect in the creative mind.
7. Slow Down
It won't do you any good to try and force creative thoughts from your mind. The best thing to do is take a 5 minute break and relax. Meditate, do yoga, or anything that relaxes you personally. Then go back to your project, you will have more creative thoughts now.
Discovering Your Creative Streak
Like was mentioned before there are many ways to stimulate your creative thinking. Try these 7 ways and any other you think that will work for you.

]]>Eight hours a day is typically spent in the office, plus an additional couple of hours for the daily commute. This leaves a very small amount of time for the family. If you want to spend more hours at home, all you need to do is make a few modifications to your work schedule, and make an objective assessment of your goals in life.
What Are Your Work Goals?
There are only so many hours in a day and in order to strike a healthy balance between the time you spend at home and at work, you have to ask yourself whether your career benefits are worth the time you are spending away from your family.
If you find yourself always tired and moody when you get home. Take a moment to consider your job. Is it something you find important enough to continue or should you find a different career path that won't interfere with your home life so much?
Is Your Job Worth The Commute?
When evaluating their working hours, many people simply think about the 8 hours spent in the office. They neglect to factor in the time spent commuting towards work, as well as sporadic business trips that might take you away for weeks at a time.
Many employers now a days are willing to compromise with you. Some even let you work from home a few hours so you can spend more time at home. Talk to them and see if all this is worth it.
What Work Responsibilities Should Be Yours?
The higher position you hold in a company the more responsibilities you have. However, you don't need to do them all. This will only stress you out and consume all of your time. Delegate some tasks to subordinates. They have less to do. Plus, they can prove their skills to you as well as help you.
Check Your Priorities
To create a working balance among the different aspects of your life, you must first identify your higher priority - earning money or spending time with your family. You can then adjust your schedule accordingly and work towards a more rewarding existence.
In the process, you will have to compute the amount of money you have to make in order to provide your family with everything they need. Knowing this amount will help you gauge whether your current job provides adequate compensation or not. A job that allows for a flexible schedule is the ideal option, as this will allow you to spend as much time with our family as you want.
Oftentimes, people get stuck in their jobs and are unable to get out even when they are not truly happy. For this reason, it is essential that you pause from time to time and re-evaluate. This will ensure the maintenance of a healthy balance between your career and family.
Are you worried that your home life is just passing you by? Do you need more help to put your life in balance? Go to SuperSonicSuccess.com and find more techniques and time management tips. Don't wait! Your life won't wait for you to figure things out. Get started before it's too late!

Sweat and elbow grease are certainly valuable and have their place in the world of making money, but they're not the only way to a fat wallet.

You might be bogged down with tons of bills and barely getting by, but as soon as you master this concept, you will see that things will change for the better with your finances.
]]>You already have the power to create wealth inside you. Most people are completely unaware of this power. They think that they are a pawn of forces they cannot comprehend, but this kind of thinking is a fallacy. A passive income opportunity can be found practically anywhere, but you have to uncover it with your mind.
Many people try to come up with schemes to create wealth, but they fail to realize that the answer to how to get rich can be found within, that is the power of positive thinking and visualizing your life just as you want it to be. Once you have changed your mindset, you will begin to feel that bills are not an obstacle, but an opportunity to do something about your life.
The biggest hurdle to taking advantage of your power to create wealth is your resistance to the idea that such a thing is possible. This could be a subconscious resistance that was built up over time without you even being aware of it. To a previous generation, wealth was something that was not talked about and began having negative connotations.
The best place to start is The Mesa, which is a popular area of Santa Barbara due to its rich history and rustic natural beauty. This area is perfect for Santa Barbara real estate investment and is home to a number of beautiful homes and thriving businesses. 'Mesa,' which means 'table' in Spanish, is a vast flatland, and a create wealth name for plains areas in the southwest. The Mesa in Santa Barbara stretches from Arroyo Burro to the Santa Barbara Cemetery.
Another hindrance to building wealth is not to know what you want. Knowing what you want helps your subconscious mind to focus on the goal you have in mind - in this case, creating wealth. You can help yourself by visualizing that you have already achieved the wealth that you desire.
The true measurement of a person's wealth is the quality and depth of their life experiences. There are spiritual, physical, and relationship sides to this. And your personal finances are intertwined through most of it. Your monetary wealth is a reflection of an important aspect of your life: your ability to attract abundance in the physical realm. But to truly create wealth that lasts, all areas of your life should be addressed. Wealth created in all areas of your life will have value that survives you as your legacy and can continue to benefit others long after you're gone.
