PLEASE PLEASE WRITE IT ALL DOWN

Make notes, keep a notebook or make a sheet per day!


Have a great idea – then make a note!

 
Decide to do something, then make it a To-Do
for your day!

 
Your internal commitments in thought
will be hugely strengthened
by writing it down!

TRY IT!

TRY THIS SIMPLE THING!

DO A GOOD DEED!

Hardly an hour passes, let alone

a day, before the chance presents itself to help

someone we do not know or to spurn that chance.



It could be in the street.

It could be when we are driving and
letting someone in ahead of us, or
it could be by making sure they cannot.

It could be holding a door for them, or
by letting it shut in the face. Or
it could be by carrying a bag
up or down some stairs for them, or by simply ignoring them.

We share the same world in our time,
when it is their time too.

It costs nothing to make it a better time.

Try it, and I swear you will make the weirdest discovery!
In totally unrelated situations, you will find other people
increasingly doing it for you.
Most important, feel the emotional power within you for
having treated Life as an interconnected endeavour with others,

even if only for a few moments in your day!

HAVE FAITH!

IF YOU HAVE FAITH, PRAY,
BUT IF YOU DON’T, 
THEN APPEAL TO
THE HIGHER ORDER OF THE UNIVERSE

This can be a sensitive issue but I believe
it should not be.

If you have a Faith,
however dimmed by lack of practice,
I would encourage you to awaken it.

In so doing you awaken your connection with greater powers than your own.

Most Faiths have a peaceful
and spiritual emphasis which serves to connect us
with “our neighbour.”



If you do not have Faith,
then ponder on the infinite scale and order of the universe,
on its power to put our own issues in perspective.

But reflect too on how
when we grasp a good intent and we promote it,
extraordinarily and coincidentally,
helpful things happen
towards achieving that good intent!
