You can't always choose your circumstances, but you can always choose your response." ~ Many, many very wise people!
"We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes." ~ Charles R. Swindoll
"The one thing you can't take away form me is the way I choose to respond to what you do to me. The last of one's freedoms is to choose one's attitude in any given circumstance." ~ Viktor Frankl
"The more you bring your choices into the level of your conscious awareness, the more you will make those choices that are spontaneously correct - both for you and those around you." ~ Deepak Chopra

Women?..Ugh.!!...
Yesterday I was having some work done at the workshop. A woman came in and asked for a 'seven-hundred- ten'.
We all looked at each other, and the mechanic asked, "What is a seven-hundred- ten?"
She replied, "You know, the little piece in the middle of the engine. I lost it and need a new one. It had always been there."
The mechanic gave the woman a piece of paper and a pen and asked her to draw what the piece looked like. She drew a circle and in the middle of it wrote 710 !!
He then took her over to another car which had the hood up and asked, "Is there a 710 on this car?"
She pointed and said, "Of course, it's right there."
Now go to the photo below to learn what a 710 is..........

Experiencing the Law of Attraction
We all possess a spiritual power that allows us to create the kind of life we desire and influence the lives of others. By managing our minds, recognizing that our thoughts have power and using that power for change, we can create great lives. This is law of attraction to our lives.
In order to harness the spiritual power that will have tremendous impact on your life and the lives of those around you, you have to engage in the thoughts, words and activities that create a sense of excitement and enthusiasm about forward movement.The first stage is not just becoming aware of how we think—we have to marry that with action. When we apply the law of attraction and then we take action to be a good steward, that's when miracles start to occur in our lives.
Although many times people become frustrated that the law of attraction is not working for them right away, However, that is all part of the process. If we had the ability to instantaneously create what we think about, we would be in pretty sorry shape on this planet,We are on this planet to grow and evolve as spiritual beings.
For example, many times people will apply the law of attraction to material things, like asking for a new car. There's nothing wrong with that—it is the first stage of learning to harness that power in your mind, As we grow and evolve over time, as our level of consciousness increases, we actually increase our ability to attract what we think about because we are better able to manage our mind.
When we finally begin to see the miracles working, we begin to want those same miracles for other people. As we get that our minds are all connected, we start to take action on a global level.

What women want
This is very interesting. ......... (To the Women) please take time to ponder...... To the Men)
enjoy the story....... .
Young King Arthur was ambushed and imprisoned by the monarch of a neighboring kingdom. The monarch could have killed him but was moved by Arthur's youth and ideals. So, the monarch offered him his freedom, as long as he could answer a very difficult question. Arthur would have a year to figure out the answer and, If after a year, he still had no answer, he would be put to death.
The question was:
What do women really want?
Such a question would perplex even the most knowledgeable man, And to young Arthur, it seemed an impossible query. But, since it was better than death, He accepted the monarch's proposition to have an answer by year's end. He returned to his kingdom and began to poll everyone: The princess, the priests, the wise men, and even the court jester. He spoke with everyone, but no one could give him a satisfactory answer. Many people advised him to consult the old witch, For only she would have the answer.
But the price would be high as the witch was famous through out the kingdom for the exorbitant prices she charged. The last day of the year arrived and Arthur had no choice but to talk to the witch. She agreed to answer the question, but he would have to agree to her price first.
The old witch wanted to marry Sir Lancelot, The most noble of the Knights of the Round Table, And Arthur's closest friend! Young Arthur was horrified. She was hunch-backed and hideous, had only one tooth, Smelled like sewage, made obscene noises, etc.
He had never encountered such a repugnant creature in all his life. He refused to force his friend to marry her and endure such a terrible burden, But Lancelot, having learnt of the proposal, spoke with Arthur. He said nothing was too big of a sacrifice compared to Arthur's life. And the reservation of the Round Table. Hence, a wedding was proclaimed and the witch answered.
Arthur's question thus: "What a woman really wants?"
She said, "Is to be in charge of her own life."
Everyone in the kingdom instantly knew that the witch had uttered a great truth. And that Arthur's life would be spared. And so it was. The neighboring monarch granted Arthur his freedom. And Lancelot and the witch had a wonderful wedding.
The honeymoon hour approached and, Lancelot, steeling himself for a horrific experience, entered the bedroom. But, what a sight awaited him.
The most beautiful woman he had ever seen lay before him on the bed. The astounded Lancelot asked what had happened. The beauty replied that since he had been so kind to her when she appeared as a witch, She would henceforth be her horrible and deformed self only half the time. And the beautiful maiden the other half.
"Which would you prefer? She asked him. "Beautiful during the day .... or at night?"
Lancelot pondered the predicament.
During the day he could have a beautiful woman to show off to his friends,
But at night, in the privacy of his castle, an old witch!
Or,
Would he prefer having a hideous witch during the day?
But by night a beautiful woman for him to share his thoughts, intimate
moments with?
(If you are a man reading this...) What would YOUR choice be?
(If you are a woman reading this) What should YOUR MAN'S choice be?
What Lancelot chose, is given below:
BUT... make YOUR choice before you scroll down below... OKAY?

Noble Lancelot, knowing the answer the witch gave Arthur to his question,He said that he would allow HER to make the choice herself. Upon hearing this, she announced that she would be beautiful all the time. Because, he had respected her enough to let her be in charge of her own life.
Now... what is the moral to this story?

The moral is...
1) There is witch in every woman no matter how beautiful she is!
2) If you don't let a woman have her own way, things are going to get ugly.
So, always remember:
IT'S EITHER"HER WAY" OR IT'S "NO WAY" !!!

Looking for a hero? Look within...
Every time you take the risk to be true to your own soul - whether or not you name your action as heroic - your example helps others to do likewise. When you notice this pattern, it becomes easier to have absolute fidelity to your own path without fear that doing so is selfish. We can do nothing better for others than model the authentic life." ~ Carol Pearson
"The biggest journey can begin with a small step. The biggest tree can grow from a small seed and manifest its own true expression from the power within." ~ Plamen Lakov
"I've continued to recognize the power individuals have to change virtually anything and everything in their lives in an instant. I've learned that the resources we need to turn our dreams into reality are within us, merely waiting for the day when we decide to wake up and claim our birthright." ~ Anthony Robbins
"Self-trust is the essence of heroism." ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
