Screw it Let's Do it

Todays post, is named as Richard Branson's book -  Screw it Let's Do it. This is the book that I've read recently. One of author's quotes (not in this particular book) was :

Right now I'm just delighted to be alive and to have had a nice long bath.(R.Branson)

So what am I thankful for today  ? Guess that's not gonna be a long list, but still   ; 

1) Generic drugs, which are cheaper and sometimes do not require perscription -  it's really helpful if you don't have any insurance. However, before bying medicines online, make sure that source is reliable and that you really need them.

2)Yogurt with muesli :D I don't know who came up with the idea  of mixing yogurt with muesli , but it's one of the best things one Earth I think. Besides it's very healthy and the taste is... ..smth incredible:"_"

3)Coincidences - last week I've found 50 zł ( didn't take it though) This week I forgot my books when I was leaving home and then had to return. When I came back , I met a post officer near my flat, who gave me the packaging I was waiting for. Coincidence ? I don't think so,

The quote to start a good Wednesday would be also Richard Branson's quote  :

You can change "business" form this quote into "life" , just skip this word if you're not really into business, or leave it as it is, it's up to you.

The point is that you should move forward constantly, make new decisions and look for new things and people around you.
 




That was all for today, as I am really exhausted. Take care everybody and have fun:D

Bob Marley & Yoda

Today I'm gonna start from Bob Marley's quote as it's somehow related to what I will be thanking for   :

"My home is in my head, my home is always where I am." (B.Marley)

It's Sunday , it's sunny , ant it's the perfect day to write about some of the things I appreciate :

1) Skype; ) maybe I should have put "internet connection" instead of skype, cause I am thankful for the opportunity to stay in touch with people who are important for me. But in most of the cases I use skype to call my family and friends, so today I'm thankful for skype.

2) Songs about homecoming. Well, it's been two years since I've been home , and to tell the truth I miss my family, eventhough I constantly call them. So today, maybe beacause of the nice weather, or maybe because I was a little bit exhausted ( lack of sleep: ) I tried to remember the best songs about home and homecoming that I like. Here they are : Game feat. Chris Brown - Pot of Gold,

P.Diddy feat.Skylar Grey - Coming Home, Kanye West - Homecoming and of course - Bob Marley - Roots.
I think it's important to remember where you come from, therefore I'd like to thank all those listed artists for great hits and beautiful lyrics they've given us.


3)TEDx  videos - some of the videos on Youtube are really inspiring, but appart from that, I find them really interesting no matter what mood I'm in.As far as I know , almost 80 % of our knowledge comes from the communication, in other words, we learn what hear from others mostly.And as people that give speeches at TEDx events are very intelligent , I think it's worth watching at least one such movie a day, even if your opinion on particular subject is different.

4) Victor Cheng's blog about tips on writting cover letters and resumes for consulting. It helped me a lot to get an internship in consulting, which I am also thankful for, but the reason why I am so inspired by V. Cheng's blog is because of the post about self confidence and being who you are. Thank you Victor, this post was breaking for me.

That's all for today , and as usual, a quote to start a nice week tomorrow :

"Do or do not. There is no try." (Yoda)
For me this quote means that in this world there are only two options - you whether are in process of doing something , or not doing it. So don't TRY to do things, act and if you fail  , act once again untill you succeed.

Take care and have fun.

Kung Fu Panda

It's probably a good idea to start each post with a nice quote that is somehow related to this post or day. So my todays quote would be a quote from Kung-Fu Panda, that wast told by Turtle (Oogway) :

"Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called the "present."

So today I am thankful for  :

- 50 PLN's (polish currency) I've found today :) I found it on the street, but didn't take it..I didn't cause I simply don't need them , I've got my own money , but it made my day  , it's nice to see money all around you. And cheers to the person that took it :)

- naps I can take -  as in two weeks Im starting the preparation to exam for MA studies, and probably won't have much free time..but for now - thank you Universe for this great thing we call nap :P

-energy drinks..well , I know they are harmful for our liver, but from time to time you need some caffeine , and if you're in a hurry or it's hot and you don't want to drink coffee , a redbull or a burn is just what you need..but of course , if it's not that important to stay awake (at the end of the day nothing is SO important ) - take a nap:))

that's probably all for today , I don't want these posts to be extremely long , so that would be it.
a quote to start a good day tomorrow, also from Kung-Fun Panda :

Oogway: There are no accidents. 
Shifu: [sighs] Yes, I know. You've already said that twice. 
Oogway: That was no accident either. 
Shifu: Thrice. 

Take care everybody and have some fun :)

Day 1 - Intro

So I made myself a promise to post every 2 days , but first things first - what is the purpose of this blog ?

Well, I don't want to tell you my whole lifestory, at least not in my first post. But the truth is , that along the way , which some of us call life , and my way lasts 21 years already , I've noticed a great power that helps us manage our lives better ...not some superforce, just a natural law if you wish, a law that lies within each of us and helps us move on no matter what. This power is called the power of appreciation. I could be writting examples from everyday life, or some celebrities that talked about appreciation, or about biochemistry of the body and hormones that change while we thank someone for something ..but it's in our nature not to believe untill we see or experience something. So This post is basically for me  - every day, or every other day, Im gonna post one , two or a few things that are pretty simple and easy to notice , and that I wish to thank for that particular day.Aaaaand, if I would be able - a picture that is related to those things that I thak for.
BUT. (there's always But :D ) the part where I wrote that this blog is just for me is a little bit tricky :) You see , this blog is for each of you guys , but not for everyone. Nice quote by the way - for each of you, but not for everyone. It means that it's personal , and if you find it interesting , maybe inspiring than you don't need to search for some more reasons - this blog is for you. Besides, when you're gonna read (or maybe IF you're gonna read these sometimes stupid and funny things Im gonna write about, you might think about your life , and about some small but meaningful things in your everyday life)

So here it goes, my Blog about things I'm grateful for.

Day 1 :
Thank you Life (instead of Life there might be God, Master , Earth, Force, Infinity, Infinite Field etc , but I chose Life without any special reason)) for

- the SPF 15 cream , which helped me go out during first sunny day of spring without worrying of getting sunburnt :D

- the cheap water that I can buy in nearest 24/7 as water is probably one of the most important things in my diet, and while shopping , I can't buy water as it's gonna be heavy to carry it :D

-ecco shoes...man , I don't why , I've always bought Nike's but last month I bought Ecco Biom running shoes, and only last week had an opportunity to try them ..amazingly comfortable shoes , thanks to those guys who manufacture them and esp. to designers who made green shoelaces that look really nice in spring :D

-bergamont tea...I must admit that I'm a big fan of tea , esp. all chinese sorts of tea, but this , I've got as a present. And believe it or not, I don't care what's happening around me, what challenges the life is preparing for me, as long as I have a nice cup of this tea...seriously , great flavor.

That's all for today, 4 things I've mentioned and hopefully you'll be able to say same thing (Thank You) for at least on of the listed 4.

Take care and have fun.
