Presence

People with presence look confident and comfortable, speak clearly and , think clearly even under pressure. They act with intention. People with presence reflect on their emotions, attitudes, and situations and then adapt. They accept responsibility for themselves and the results they achieve. People with presence are real. They present their genuine character authentically.

Difficulty

To go up in the business world or, in the academic or political world, you frequently have to experience difficulty as you go. Without the difficulty you never develop the mental sharpness and physical strength which are necessary to succeed.

Uniqueness

I believe that every person has uniqueness - something that nobody else has.

Michael Schenker

If everyone would look for that uniqueness then we would have a very colorful world.

Michael Schenker

No matter what parents do, kids retain their uniqueness.

Perfect Vs Imperfect

It's a bit difficult to say what is perfect and what is imperfect, but the result of the action will tell you whether it is a perfect action or not. 
If the result of that action brings benefit to all people involved with it—to the person who performs the action and to the person who enjoys the benefit of the action—without bringing harm to anybody, then it's a perfect action. 
If the action is going to bring harm even to one individual or if it's going to build up tension in your own mind, then it's not a perfect action. 
It's the motive behind the action and the result of the action that will decide whether an action is perfect or imperfect.

Obstacles

People who have overcome obstacles are more secure than those who have never faced them. We all have problems and we feel discouraged some time. Most people get disappointed; but winners don't get disheartened. The answer is perseverance. An English proverb says, "A smooth sea never made a skilful mariner." Everything is difficult before it becomes easy. We cannot run away from our problems. Only losers quit and give up.

Shiv Kera

Miracles of Life

There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.

- Albert Einstein

A coincidence is a small miracle in which God chooses to remain anonymous.

Discipline

Disciplining yourself to do what you know is right and important, although difficult is the highroad to pride, self-esteem, and personal satisfaction.
