Let’s face it – time is probably our greatest resource. We never seem to have enough of it and it seems to pass so quickly. Well we won’t get any more of it and we can’t slow it down.


What we can do is make the most of the time we have. Here are some simple steps you can take to get the most out of your day.


1. Plan your day the night before – At the end of each day write out all the things you need to do the following day to achieve your goals. Pull together all the information you’ll need, phone numbers and relevant paperwork.


2. Prioritise the list – Number each item and do the nasty jobs first. There’s always the temptation to do the easy jobs first. However, think how the thought of doing the nasty jobs hangs over you as you do the easy stuff. Think how good you’ll feel when the nasties are out of the way and how motivated you’ll feel.


3. Stick to your list – Tick off each item as you go and don’t let yourself be distracted. The temptation is to handle the telephone and e-mails as they come in. The phone is hard to ignore but you could always pull out the plug and let it go to voice mail and switch off the email program. Make an agreement with yourself to check for messages every two hours or so.


4. Remember the Three “D’s” – Do it, Delegate it or Dump it. Handle each piece of paper only once. Either do something about it now, delegate it to someone else or chuck it in the trash. And remember – “Only do it if only you can do it.” 5. Don’t procrastinate – Procrastination really is the “Thief of Time” It’s so easy to put things off till another time or till “I’ve had time to think about it.” DO IT NOW!


6. Plan your leisure time – Take up activities that need you to be at a certain place at a certain time. Instead of just “going to the gym,” book a fitness class or an appointment with a personal trainer.


7. Be honest with yourself – Keep asking – “Is what I’m doing now getting me to where I want to get to?” if the answer is “no,” change what you’re doing.


This is the easiest way to get more out of your day and more out of your life.

I hear people saying all the time, you must stay positive.

Well, positivity is more productive than negativity, but did you know that being positive can create negativity? Huuuhhh!!!!!

Think about this: You look in the mirror and you are not happy with the person that you see. So you proceed to practice being positive. “I love the person that I see. That person is slim. She/he is …..” You get the point.

Well doesn’t a little voice creep in and say “You are lying. Look at you. You are…”

What started out to be “positive” actually became a “negative” conversation. Which will create negative feelings. Which could create more stress or depression (depending on where you stand).

For an example: you have weeds in your garden. You decide to be positive by saying “there are no weeds, there are no weeds”. Well, recognize that you got weeds (get over it) and pull them out of your garden. Just being positive is not going to get rid of the weeds.

In some instances a negative is a positive. What?

Example: You are a person that gets angry and screams and creates havoc when a certain situation occurs. Now, you get angry and keep it inside. The anger is still a negative, but it is positive compared to the way you used to address the issue. Now you can work on moving from the anger stage.

By the way, in the weight conversation, a better statement may be “I am moving towards having the slim body that I dreamed about”. Isn’t that true. If you have made a decision to do something about your weight, aren’t you moving towards your goal? This will create better feelings because you know it is true and you can “Believe it”.

So bottom line, what am I saying? Just being positive is not the entire answer. It helps. You have to believe that there is a positive solution. The faith that you will figure a way out of it is what will create better feelings. The ideal is to create better feelings. Better feelings will release stress and that ultimately will create a positive environment.

It ain’t right. It ain’t wrong. It’s just my opinion.

If the world was blind,

maybe then we’d see

the true side of beauty,

deep within you and me.

No one could judge us

by our outer looks,

like the fancy covers

on expensive books.

We’d see with our hearts,

and not just our eyes,

and what we’d discover

might be a surprise.

There would be no need

to try to impress,

with the way we look,

or the way that we dress.

The only thing that would matter

is the way we would feel,

not phoney or cheap,

but truthful and real.

One day a father and his rich family took his son to a trip to the country with the firm purpose to show him how poor people can be.


They spent a day and a night in the farm of a very poor family. When they got back from their trip the father asked his son, “How was the trip?”

“Very good Dad!”"Did you see how poor people can be?”the father asked.

“Yeah!”

“And what did you learn?”

The son answered, “I saw that we have a dog at home, and they have four. We have a pool that reaches to the middle of the garden, they have a creek that has no end. We have imported lamps in the garden, they have the stars. Our patio reaches to the front yard, they have a whole horizon.”When the little boy was finishing, his father was speechless.

His son added, “Thanks Dad for showing me how poor we are!”

Click heDeceiving others; That is what the World calls { Romance }... !!

Actually, I started to believe that the art of { Pleasing } is the art of { Deceiving }…

Have an insight look over the { Actions } and the { Intentions } of Parents; You will see that they find Pleasure in { Deceiving } their children, it is not only a { Necessary } to look after them;

It is a { Pleasure }, Doing { So } bring them a smile .

Children will grow up and realize this { What the parents enjoy from deceiving them }, then;

They will pay back but with { The art of Deceiving the Deceivers is a Double Pleasure }.

Starting with their own parents first, { I need money to attend a private lesson, ...etc. }

Then It will be an every day Habit,

They will grow up little more; Having the same concept; They will start{ deceiving themselves } as well as { Deceiving others }, by having faith in an idea or a false friend or even a lover,

{ Like our shadow, keeping close to us while we walk in the sunshine },ONLY..!

{ Leaving us the instant we cross into the shade}...!!

These are the things, Which they will start to deceive themselves for their sake.

Life wheel will keep rolling; they will grow up more and more; { Passing over others feelings and sometimes over their OWN }

Introducing to life new terminologies like sorrow, regret, pain, & grief.

Considering the variation in human nature, some will realize this SOON and others will take A LIFE TIME.

We deceive as well as being deceived, TRUE.....!

Haven't we all started to suspect the truth itself? …

Yes we do...!

We all born sincere and will die deceivers…!

HOWEVER; Whom to be blamed?

No one but ourselves… we did not have either the will or the courage to stop this damn chain…

We lost …

Yes, we did…

We lost good friends whom we could have the chance to have them.

We lost chances to have faith in some one that might be a good life partner.

We lost good times replacing them with fake or bad times.
We Lost Reality…re to edit.

The good you find in others, is in you too.

The faults you find in others, are your faults as well.

After all, to recognize something you must know it.

The possibilities you see in others, are possible for you as well.

The beauty you see around you, is your beauty.

The world around you is a reflection, a mirror showing you the person you are.

To change your world, you must change yourself.

To blame and complain will only make matters worse.

Whatever you care about, is your responsibility.

What you see in others, shows you yourself.

See the best in others,and you will be your best.

Give to others, and you give to yourself.

Appreciate beauty, and you will be beautiful.

Admire creativity, and you will be creative.

Love, and you will be loved.

Seek to understand, and you will be understood.

Listen, and your voice will be heard.Teach, and you will learn.

Show your best face to the mirror, and you’ll be happy with the face looking back at you.

If You Are Against What is Happening Inside Prisons Of Occupied Palestine.. If You Are A Human-Being !

Speak Up.. Shout.. Like.. Share.. Let Us Be Heard....

What’s happening now inside prisons of occupied Palestine, there is a fight for dignity and freedom happening inside there right now. Every single time i think about what’s happening in there i feel ashamed of myself. I feel small and not important, it started with Hanaa Shalabi and then Khader Adnan, now it’s with more then 1500 prisoners.

Some of them are jailed without any charged against them which is what they’re fighting against. It that ugly way of the occupation in fighting Palestinians. It’s the ugly Administrative detention. Hanaa Shalabi and Khader Adnan fought it before and they won and earned there freedom. Now it’s the turn of all those prisoners on hunger strike.

They have a list a demands which can be easily met if Israel wants

Those demands as viewed in the picture above in Arabic are:

1. The right to have an Education.

2. An end to the policy of Solitary confinement.

3. Stop forbidding visits or limiting them.

4. To allow books & holy books and clothes.

5. The improvement of Medical treatment for patients and injured.

6. End of Administrative detention “Arrests without reason”.

7. Unblock tv channels that were stopped.

8. End the policy of raids and searches that are provocative.

9. End the policy of handcuffing the detainees during visits.

10. Stop group punishment and to all the prisoners to buy food.

Those 10 demands are a right for the prisoners and they won’t stop their hunger strike until they earn them, either they get and win or they’ll die with dignity and still win. As i said it’s a win win battle. So ladies and gentlemen we have an obligation here, if we are truly with the Palestinian cause. If we support those hunger strikers we gotta SPEAK UP and do everyone in our power. We have do to raise our voices high in support and with the politicians sleeping on it as usual we got no option but to do this ourselves.

All over the world there are protests, vigils and human chains and a lot other ideas. There are even hunger strikers in solidarity here in Jordan. But we need to do more people, we have to move and move faster because the hunger strikers aren’t going to last like this for long. They’re in danger.
