PEOPLE WHO KNOW NOTHING ABOUT YOU WILL ALWAYS HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY





Have you ever wondered how and why people who know nothing about you, are the ones who always have something to say about everything?

well sit down and enjoy this story.

 THE KEY TO FAILURE IS TO TRY TO PLEASE EVERYONE.

        The story is told of a painter who desired to produce one work which would please the entire world. She drew a picture which required her utmost skill and took it to the public market place.

        She posted directions at the bottom of the piece for people to mark each portion of the picture that didn't meet their approval. The spectators came and, in general applauded the work. But each, eager to make a personal critique, marked a small portion of the picture. By evening, the painter was mortified to find the entire picture had become a blot.

       The next day the painter returned  with the copy of the original picture. This time she asked the spectators to mark portions of the work they admired. The spectators again complied. When the artist returned several hours later, she found every stroke that had been panned the day before she had received praise by this day's critics.

       The artist concluded, "I now believe the best way to please one-half of the world is not to mind what the other says."

      People will always have an opinion about us. That is why we must live our lives to please God. Then we will not fret over the opinion of others.
                               Matthew 6;24
no one can serve two masters; for he either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will hold to one and despise the other.

Studies have shown that temperament does not change but remains constant. THERE ARE FOUR MAIN TYPES OF TEMPERAMENTS TEMPERAMENT TYPES Sanguine (enthusiastic, active, and social) Choleric (short-tempered, fast, and irritable) Melancholic (analytical, wise, and quiet) Phlegmatic (relaxed and peaceful). Psychologists recognize four primary temperament types. The names of the types were originally  names of humor in more distant times . It was believed that humor caused people to behave in certain ways. Although science has refuted the existence of humor in that fashion, the names of the four temperament types stuck. It is possible, in fact likely, that someone will have both primary and secondary temperament types. A person can have any combination of the temperament types to ma...

THE KING AND THE GREEDY BEGGAR...INSPIRING STORY

PSALM 40 ; 04 BLESSED IS THE MAN WHO HAS MADE THE LORD HIS TRUST, WHO HAS NOT TURNED TO THE PROUD, NOR TO THOSE WHO LAPSE INTO FALSEHOOD! VERY MOTIVATIONAL.                Long time ago,  there lived a great king and two beggars who always stood at the gate of his palace everyday.
