Will –Power
Will- power is a leadership quality which helps a person to become optimistic in life by overcoming dullness. The man with will-power accomplishes great things by moving ahead with courage and determination. “The man who has the will to undergo all labour shall reach any goal, “said Menader long ago.
Weak-willed people have no idea about the panoramic life and the great opportunities it offers. They give excuses for their failures in life. They think that it is their fate. They believe that they are not suited for the job and so on.
To have will-power people should have faith in themselves. This should be combined with a sense of optimism. It is easy to develop will-power if people take into account their failures, resolve the causes and seek to remedy them Desire suggestion and action are the three stages to obtain will power. A person should feel confident that he can do a thing. This “I can’ feeling will push him forward into energetic action and lead to success.
Regular practice under controlled conditions will help a person to sustain will-power. The will is like the engine of a motor. How eve, it needs like the engine. Some outside force to make it go . the magic power is imagination and determination to do, which induces each and every one of our actions. We must keep a clear ideal before our mind’s eye and then pursue the path selected by us with dedication.
Whether man circles the earth or sends rockets to the moon or splits the atom or transplants the heart, all such achievements have been accomplished by will power which is reinforced by fruitful and positive imagination. Courtesy wisdom
Honour the old, instruct the young, consult the wise.
Work is its own reward
Concentrate on the work assigned to you. Those who run after power will get disappointment and frustration. Power comes to those who work with devotion and dedication. But even if power does not come, you should be satisfied with your work. Work it its own reward.

I drive joy

There was a doctor in Benaras who spent 5 minutes in the morning and evening for mediation on God. Knowing this, his colleagues and friends laughed at him. One day they argued that he was wasting ten precious minutes on something, which he had been misled into believing. The doctor replied, “Well, if God does not exist, I agree that I am wasting ten minutes a day. But, if He exists? I am afraid you are wasting your entire lifetime. I prefer to waste ten minutes rather than a lifetime. Why should you grudge me the 10 minutes joy that I derive from? I am not robbing you of your joy; why should you rob me of mine. He asked. The critics were silenced. –Baba- Chinna Katha
