"We all live with the objective of being happy; our lives are all different and yet the same."

Anne Frank

It is Spring! A time for new things, new life, new opportunities. 

Napoleon Hill said, "Your big opportunity may be right where you are now."

What opportunities do you have right now? 

Have an awesome week!

"It's not what you look at what matters, it's what you see."
Henry David Thoreau

Your Future is in your hands. YOU choose which life u want to live.sit on your couch complaining about life or wake up in the morning with new ideals to better your life and your tomorrow.we all have the things we want it is just how hard we want to keep them and make everything visible in everyone s eyes.

"In every day, there are 1440 minutes. That means we have 1440 daily opportunities to make a positive impact." - Les Brown

In "Alice through the Looking Glass" by Lewis Carroll, Alice is faced with an impossible task. She says so with her statement, "There is no use trying, one can't believe impossible things." 

How often do we come to choices or opportunities and simply choose to think that it is "impossible". The epic response of the red queen is simply, "I dare say you haven't had much practice. When I was your age, I always did it for half an hour a day. Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast." 

Use every opportunity today to practice being positive and believing the impossible. As Henry Ford said, "If you think you can do a thing or think you can't do a thing, you're right." 

Quote;

To handle yourself, use your head; to handle others, use your heart

Eleanor Roosevelt

Good morning BMT College! We often have different ideas and ideals of what happiness will look like. What is yours? 

Congratulations once again to our Top Achievers that were announced last week! 

Good morning BMT, this morning we look at a quotation from an early "self-help" author, Napoleon Hill. 

His book "Think and Grow Rich" (1937) has sold over 20 million copies and is in the top 10 of the best selling self-help books of all time. (Wikipedia) His research was done by examining 40 millionaires (In 1937, specifically during the great depression, millionaires was today's billionaires!), looking for the "secrets" of their success. 

The 13 principles that makes up his philosophy on achieving personal success, is not only limited to success in business, but can be applied in any area of your life. So often we measure "success" according to money or assets, but we should transcend beyond that. 

What did you think about Napoleon's book and do you think it is still current today?  

How do you measure success? 

Good morning BMT! It is May and we can feel the cold starting to creep in. This morning we look at what is important to our success. Is it only motivation or the drive to succeed? Is it the strategy and tactics we use? Is it what we equip ourselves with? Is it about opportunities and making use of them? Maybe it is a combination of it all. However, as Elon Musk said, "When something is important enough, you do it even if the odds are not in your favour." 

What is important to you and to your success? 

Good Morning BMT! Last Monday of May 2017. 

Good morning BMT! First Monday of June and it is starting to get cold here in Jo'burg. Have an awesome week! 

Good morning BMT! John Wooden said that we all make mistakes but only become failures when we blame other people for those mistakes. For me, this ties in with today's quote in making the most of yourself. Because ultimately, that responsibility is yours. Have an awesome week!

Good morning BMT! We had our annual graduation on Saturday and it was an amazing celebration of our students' successes and to see all their hard work paying off. But this is just the beginning, just the start of their successes. Have a great final week of June!

Good morning BMT! 

It is the first week of July and it seems like it is going to be a cloudy, rainy day in Johannesburg. It is an opportunity to be miserable or an opportunity to make pancakes! Success is mostly determined by the choices you make. 

Keep warm, stay awesome and have an amazing week! 

Through our decisions and actions, we build our futures every moment of every day. Are you using your time wisely? 

Have an awesome week and build beautiful futures! 

The most important thing when you want to make a change, make an improvement, begin a new project, do that assignment, or whatever it is that you have planned or dreamed about, is to start. It doesn't matter if you are not 100% ready, 80% is fine. In fact, 80% is better...because if you wait for 100%, then you will wait for perfection. 

And life is not perfect. 

Life is gloriously imperfect. And it is within that imperfection where we should joyfully celebrate every success! Barrack Obama said, "The future reward those who press on. I don't have time to feel sorry for myself. I don't have time to complain. I'm going to press on." 

Have an AWESOME week! 

Good morning BMT College. It is often at this time of year when we have mostly given up on our new year's resolutions. (Or we are desperately trying to forget about them!) 

But maybe this should be a different type of time. And since it is your life, you can choose what time this is for you. Maybe this is the time to recapture that joyful exhilaration that initially prompted us to do or plan or hope for whatever it was. A time to examine and restate our plans and goals.

Time is relative. Find joy in whatever it is you do...and keep on going! 

Good morning BMT! Even if things are tough, never give up on your goals. Enjoy the last week of August!

Good morning BMT! Trust you had an amazing weekend and that you will have an awesome week. 

Good morning BMT! What an amazing day for new opportunities. Have an awesome week. 

Life is precious, life is short....enhance, celebrate, enjoy and be grateful for each second !!!

Good morning BMT! What we do is not always for ourselves. But investing in ourselves allows us to do better when investing in others. Have an awesome week!

Good afternoon BMT! Are you ready to challenge yourself? Are you ready to be courageous? Are you ready to go beyond what you think you are capable of? If you think you are not, then remember that the only way to find your limits is to test them. Go out, conquer your world and have an awesome week!
