"When I started loving myself" - A poem by Charlie Chaplin

When I started loving myself I understood that I’m always and at any given opportunity in the right place at the right time. And I understood that all that happens is right –from then on I could be calm. Today I know: It’s called TRUST.

When I started to love myself I understood how much it can offend somebody. When I tried to force my desires on this person,even though I knew the time is not right and the person was not ready for it, and even though this person was me. Today I know: It’s called LETTING GO.

When I started loving myself I could recognize that emotional pain and grief are just warnings for me to not live against my own truth. Today I know: It’s called AUTHENTICALLY BEING.

When I started loving myself I stopped longing for another life and could see that everything around me was a request to grow. Today I know: It’s called MATURITY.

When I started loving myself I stopped depriving myself of my free time and stopped sketching further magnificent projects for the future. Today I only do what’s fun and joy for me, what I love and what makes my heart laugh, in my own way and in my tempo. Today I know: it’s called HONESTY.

When I started loving myself I escaped from all what wasn’t healthy for me, from dishes, people, things, situations and from everyhting pulling me down and away from myself. In the beginning I called it the “healthy egoism”, but today I know: it’s called SELF-LOVE.

When I started loving myself I stopped wanting to be always right thus I’ve been less wrong.Today I’ve recognized: it’s called HUMBLENESS.

When I started loving myself I refused to live further in the past and worry about my future. Now I live only at this moment where EVERYTHING takes place, like this I live every day and I call it CONSCIOUSNESS.

When I started loving myself I recognized, that my thinking can make me miserable and sick.When I requested for my heart forces, my mind got an important partner. Today I call this connection HEART WISDOM.

We do not need to fear further discussions, conflicts and problems with ourselves and others since even stars sometimes bang on each other and create new worlds. Today I know: THIS IS LIFE!

The Ostrich

A man walks into a restaurant with a full-grown ostrich behind him. The waitress asks them for their orders. The man says, "A hamburger, fries and a coke," and turns to the ostrich, "What's yours?" "I'll have the same," says the ostrich. A short time later the waitress returns with the order. "That will be $9.40 please." The man reaches into his pocket and pulls out the exact change for payment. The next day, the man and the ostrich come again and the man says, "A hamburger, fries and a coke." The ostrich says, "I'll have the same." Again the man reaches into his pocket and pays with exact change. This becomes routine until the two enter again. "The usual asks the waitress?" "No, this is F...

Andrea Gibson - Asking too much

I want you to tell me about every person you’ve ever been in love with. Tell me why you loved them, then tell me why they loved you. Tell me about a day in your life you wouldn’t think you’d live through. Tell me what the word home means to you And tell me in a way that I’ll know your mother’s name just by the way you describe your bedroom when you were 8. See, I wanna know the first time you felt the weight of hate and if that day still trembles beneath your bones. Do you prefer to play in puddles of rain or bounce in bellies of snow? And if you were to build a snowman, would you rip two branches from a tree to build your snowman arms? Or would you leave your snowman armless for the sake of being harmless to the tree? And if you would, would you notice how the tree weeps for you because your snowman has no arms to hug you every time you kiss him on the cheek? Do you kiss your friends on the cheek? Do you sleep besides them when the...

The 5 Step 'Aha Moment' Process

Immersion – learn, study and practice your domain as much as possible. Incubation – take breaks, have recreational time, find a balance between work and play. ‘Aha Moment’ – a natural by product of first two steps. Deliberation – be honest about your ideas. Keep the good ones, ditch the bad ones. Elaboration – get to work and make your ideas a reality. This is the most important step.
