Important things that life teaches you

¤ Most Important Question:
During my second month of nursing school, our
professor gave us a pop quiz. I was a
conscientious student and had breezed through
the questions, until I read the last one: "What is
the first name of the woman who cleans the
school?" Surely this was some kind of joke. I had
seen the cleaning woman several times. She was
tall, dark-haired and in her 50s, but how would I
know her name? I handed in my paper, leaving
the last question blank. Before class ended, one
student asked if the last question would count
toward our quiz grade. "Absolutely," said the
professor. "In your careers you will meet many
people. All are significant. They deserve your
attention and care, even if all you do is smile and
say 'Hello'." I've never forgotten that lesson. I
also learned her name was Dorothy.
¤ Pickup in the Rain:
One night, at 11:30 PM, an older African
American woman was standing on the side of an
Alabama highway trying to endure a lashing
rainstorm. Her car had broken down and she
desperately needed a ride. Soaking wet, she
decided to flag down the next car. A young white
man stopped to help her - generally unheard of in
those conflict-filled 1960s. The man took her to
safety, helped her get assistance and put her into
a taxicab. She seemed to be in a big hurry! She
wrote down his address, thanked him and drove
away. Seven days went by and a knock came on
the man's door. To his surprise, a giant console
color TV was delivered to his home. A special
note was attached. It read: "Thank you so much
for assisting me on the highway the other night.
The rain drenched not only my clothes but also
my spirits. Then you came along. Because of you,
I was able to make it to my dying husband's
bedside just before he passed away. God bless
you for helping me and unselfishly serving others."
Sincerely,
Mrs. Nat King Cole
¤ Always remember those who serve:
In the days when an ice cream sundae cost much
less, a 10 year old boy entered a hotel coffee
shop and sat at a table. A waitress put a glass of
water in front of him. "How much is an ice cream
sundae?" "Fifty cents," replied the waitress. The
little boy pulled his hand out of his pocket and
studied a number of coins in it. "How much is a
dish of plain ice cream?" he inquired. Some
people were now waiting for a table and the
waitress was a bit impatient. "Thirty-five cents,"
she said brusquely. The little boy again counted
the coins. "I'll have the plain ice cream," he said.
The waitress brought the ice cream, put the bill
on the table and walked away. The boy finished
the ice cream, paid the cashier and departed.
When the waitress came back, she began wiping
down the table and then swallowed hard at what
she saw. There, placed neatly beside the empty
dish, were two nickels and five pennies - her tip.
¤ The Obstacle in Our Path:
In ancient times, a king had a boulder placed on a
roadway. Then he hid himself and watched to see
if anyone would remove the huge rock. Some of
the king's wealthiest merchants and courtiers
came by and simply walked around it. Many
loudly blamed the king for not keeping the roads
clear, but none did anything about getting the big
stone out of the way. Then a peasant came along
carrying a load of vegetables. On approaching the
boulder, the peasant laid down his burden and
tried to move the stone to the side of the road.
After much pushing and straining, he finally
succeeded. As the peasant picked up his load of
vegetables, he noticed a purse lying in the road
where the boulder had been. The purse contained
many gold coins and a note from the king
indicating that the gold was for the person who
removed the boulder from the roadway. The
peasant learned what many others never
understand. Every obstacle presents an
opportunity to improve one's condition.
¤ Giving Blood:
Many years ago, when I worked as a volunteer at
Stanford Hospital, I got to know a little girl
named Liz who was suffering from a rare and
serious disease. Her only chance of recovery
appeared to be a blood transfusion from her 5-
year old brother, who had miraculously survived
the same disease and had developed the
antibodies, needed to combat the illness. The
doctor explained the situation to her little brother,
and asked the boy if he would be willing to give
his blood to his sister. I saw him hesitate for only
a moment before taking a deep breath and
saying, "Yes, I'll do it if it will save Liz." As the
transfusion progressed, he lay in bed next to his
sister and smiled, as we all did, seeing the color
returning to her cheeks. Then his face grew pale
and his smile faded. He looked up at the doctor
and asked with a trembling voice, "Will I start to
die right away?" Being young, the boy had
misunderstood the doctor; he thought he was
going to have to give his sister all of his blood..

10 things to learn from Bruce Lee

1. Be YOUR best :
It’s not about following in someone else’s
footsteps or trying to be somebody you’re not.
It’s about unleashing your best version of
yourself. According to Bruce, “Always be yourself,
express yourself, have faith in yourself, do not go
out and look for a successful personality and
duplicate it.”
2. Absorb what is useful :
It’s not about blindly adopting patterns and
practices. It’s about taking the best of the best
and tailoring it. It’s also about throwing away
what doesn’t work. Bruce borrowed concepts and
techniques from everybody and every art in a
relentless pursuit of the best of the best.
According to Bruce, “Absorb what is useful,
Discard what is not, Add what is uniquely your
own."
3. Keep an open mind :
You have to be willing to throw out what you
already know and have a curiosity to explore new
paths. If you’re cup is already full, you can’t learn
new things. According to Bruce, “First empty your
cup.”
4. Aim past your target :
Aim past your target, so when you fall short, you
still land in the ballpark of success. Bruce Lee
was famous for his one-inch punch, but in reality
he was aiming past the one-inch. According to
Bruce, “Don’t fear failure. Not failure, but low aim,
is the crime. In great attempts it is glorious even
to fail.”
5. Stay flexible :
Be flexible in your approach. Learn from
everybody and everything and don’t get locked
into a particular style. According to Bruce,
“Expose yourself to various conditions and learn.”
6. Focus on growth :
Push past your limits. According to Bruce, “There
are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you
must not stay there, you must go beyond them.”
7. Know yourself :
Your blind spots and ignorance can be your
biggest weakness. According to Bruce, “After all,
all knowledge simply means self-knowledge.”
8. Master your mind and body :
It’s not enough just to be smart. It’s not enough
just to master your body. Your body and mind
support each other. Your body helps turn what
you think or dream up into results. According to
Bruce, “As you think, so shall you become.”
9. Apply what you know :
Life is not about watching from the sidelines. Use
what you know and put knowledge into practice.
Test yourself. According to Bruce, “Knowing is
not enough, we must do. Willing is not enough,
we must apply.”
10. Make things happen :
When there is no wave, make one. According to
Bruce, “To hell with circumstances; I create
opportunities.”

People Who Changed the World ~ Steve Jobs

Steve job left us 3 years ago as he died from cancer.. But his inventions will live on forever. Steve Job was American entrepreneur and inventor, he was the Co-Founder of Apple and CEO of the company for many years, he also Co- Founded Pixar. He is considered as one of the most charismatic pioneers of the personal computer revolution. Though all of us know his future, not so many know his past .. Actually Steve Jobs was a college dropout, strange right? But that’s true he dropped out of college, and I don’t know if you have watched the new movie JOBS with Ashton Kutcher, but in the movie he takes LSD and that is true as well, Steve Jobs was really taking LSD in his college years. So How did Steve Jobs Change the World? He made PCs before they were PCs. The first Mac computers were known as PCs, because they were computers designed to be used by individuals in their homes, something that wasn’t really possible before. – And the one PCs that managed to do that was Apple II and actually that was the first widely successful PC. Today’s computers may be classified as PC or Mac, but they all evolved from the original PC prototype and that is why we have to thank Steve Jobs for that. He made computers simple. Actually not only computers but phones as well, like the “smartphones” before iPhone were complete crap so hard to use and so many keys. But Steve Jobs always liked his products to be simple, to be easy to use and that’s the reason why iPhone has 1 button. Mac Computers became successful because Steve Jobs began to win people over to his vision of a computer that was powerful but also intuitive, easy to use and highly functional. Users began to abandon PCs for Macs in droves as they realized that Macs froze less, glitched less, crashed less and were easier to navigate besides. He made advertising innovative. In a famous commercial that ran during the Super Bowl, which costed Steve Jobs a lot of money and was really a risky move: an athlete runs into a room straight out of a dystopian novel and throws a hammer at a projector screen full of propaganda, and then the screen reads – On January 24, Apple Computer will introduce Macintosh. And you’ll see why 1984 won’t be like ’1984.’ Steve Jobs was known for putting a lot of resources and money in his ads, and that’s why Apple always had the best ads. He turned technology into art. Like I can’t even find a room to compare the design between Apple’s products and other companies products.. And believe me or not I actually do not own an Apple Product.. Like Apple’s might be a bit behind when it comes to functions, but that doesn’t matter at all, what matters is the simplicity and the design. Before Steve Jobs showed up, no one had thought to combine so many things– computers, music players, phones — into the same company. And as we end It was his passion for perfection that made Apple the company as we know it today, from a company inside a garage to a multi billion dollar company.. Steve Jobs was known for being a bit harsh on people, but there is no doubt that his inventions changed the world… The Macintosh, The iPod, the iPhone, the iPad, the iMac all of them had something unique that was ahead of their time.. And while people who don’t like Apple Products might not like this, it’s true! Thanks Steve!
