Greatest Investment

God calls us to invest our time -capital -our very lives - primarily in people, not in projects or possessions, because , only life lived for others is worth living.
The difference between individuals get reflected in their priorities in the way they live their lives. For majority, self comes first; in accumulating possession for self and family.

The less privileged deserve our attention and help. There are those who need a push, an encouraging word or guidance. When you thus invest your life in the lives of others, when you invest your life in the personalities of others, you make the wisest investment of all. 

When you invest your life in alleviating pain and suffering, in lending an understanding ear to the tired and discouraged, the ill and the aged, you merit it a seat besides angels.
When you do this, you achieve Wat your creator envisioned you to become - a person of compassionate love, benevolence and wise generosity.

Does anybody have to tell you, you should breathe, it’s ridiculous to tell you, “you know what, that you should breathe” –it is natural. It’s just as breathing is natural – Love of parents towards children is natural. But Parenting is an ART. Art is something that requires prop...

STUDY SKILLS

STUDY SKILLS - (Few Extracts taken from the internet) Intelligent people are always eager and ready to learn (proverb 18:15) Study Skills  are strategies and techniques that enable you to make the most efficient use of your time, resources, and academic potential . Strong study skills are essential to succeed in school and in LIFE. It isn't enough to just sit inside a classroom and hope to soak up the knowledge a teacher or a lecturer is presenting. You must put effort into learning, understanding, and applying the material. The earlier you can develop these skills, the greater your chance of academic success. There is no magic bullet when it comes to developing good study habits. Not everyone learns the same way. So, not everyone will study the same way.
