Today is the 11th of June 2008 and that of course means that it is the mid week Wednesday edition of the Morning Cruise…so Wednesday is here so after Friday I just so love Wednesday just because you know that you are half way through the week… So what I want to know from you is… what is your favourite day of the five day working week its so simple…

Word of the Day:

PAUCITY - fewness; smallness of number; scarcity

Trivial Question:

Q: From what prison was Nelson Mandela released in 1990?
A: Victor Vester

Tip of the Day:

I spoke about past and the future as the past future and presents is crucial part of our lives because what happens to us in the present will soon be form of the past and in some small way we can learn from our past in the future mmm is might sound confusing…In the meantime I hope you thought about it if so…Then this is the right place because I have tips on how to improve and work on the past and future…

1. Set A New Course - Your new course is first an internal one, which paves the way for external changes. If you're not satisfied with your life as it is, start by imagining that it can get better. What happens in your life is largely up to you, so make it a priority to figure out how to create what you want. Take time every day to think about what you want. Be willing to try new things.

2. Trust Your Intuition - Tapping into your inner wisdom. When you hear the "little voice of wisdom" inside, listen. Trust it. Life can be confusing, and some people do try to manipulate. If something doesn't feel right, it may mean that it's not for you.

3. Look For A Silver Lining - Developing a positive attitude. Search for the positive. Focusing on the negative dulls your energy and ability to cope. No matter how bad a situation seems, find something in it to appreciate. Ask yourself, what good could come from this? What can I learn here? The answers you get show you what to do next. You already have inside you the resources to make peace with the past and create a new future. You just have to learn how to use them.

4. Take A Step Back - Separating motivation from unconscious pattern Be on the lookout for destructive habitual patterns. Noticing is the first step to breaking them.

5. Watch What You Say - Developing effective communicationTell the truth. Be kind. A little goes a long way. Speak carefully. Emphasize the positive. Say good things, especially to yourself. Be aware of your effect on others. Don't assume you're being understood. When you realize you've made a mistake, apologize, face to face if possible so you can look the other person in the eye. Don't interrupt. Don't give advice unless you're asked. Don't gossip. It wastes time you could be using to empower yourself.

6. Don't Keep Score - Setting your own standards. Life isn't about success or failure. Although both teach valuable lessons, fulfilling your potential is the essential goal.

7. No Victims, No Villains - Every situation brings exactly what you need to wake up. Relationships are like jigsaw puzzles. All the pieces fit together to create the whole. You are not responsible for anyone else, nor are they for you.

8. Meditate And Treat Yourself Well - Nurture yourself. Make time to have fun and enjoy life. Take walks in nature. Spend time alone.

9. Get Outside Help -See beyond your blind spots. Get counseling. It helps to talk about your feelings, no matter how embarrassing, strange or awful they seem to you. Find someone you trust and feel compatible with, and be willing to pour your heart out.

10. Move On -Graduate to living fully. Respect your own boundaries. Your first commitment should be to yourself and to learning as much as possible from what happens to you. Only when you're at peace with yourself can you make a real contribution to anyone. I wish you healing, faith and the courage to make your dreams come true.

Quote of the Day:

E.E Cummings - The most wasted of all days is one without laughter

It’s time for me to love and leave you. You must have oh so super Wednesday. Let’s chat again tomorrow…Much Love…Peace.
