WANT TO KNOW ABOUT THE LIFE THE SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE LIVE? Why?
Yes, why you want to admire them when you yourself can become so successful in life . Before even thinking to follow someone, you need to have focus and determination on your aim. Yes, without it no one can become successful. Your optimisation and hard work will define your success. You need to change your behaviour as well as your thinking but believe me it will pay off definitely. If you really want to know that what successful people follow in their daily lives, then here are some keys.
1. You need to do things you want instead of waiting to get them: you must have seen that successful people and lazy people don’t merge; they won’t ever feel comfortable with them. Because lazy people wait for the things to happen rather than successful people who fulfil their dreams without waiting and wasting their time. They don’t want to lose their potential. Instead of waiting and thinking what will be next they try to overcome the challenges and face them. They discover the ways to cross the hurdles, instead of waiting for the hurdles to go away. They never show excuses and throw them out of their window. They try to avoid the excuses.
2. You need to focus on the way not on the destination: the journey is focused to the lessons of life which are valuable and paved with triumph and inevitable failure and with this failure you can learn only when you have the right attitude. Successful people stop at places to smell the roses which cross them and enjoy their journey to achieve the success even when keeping track of time. Rather lazy people who never focuses on roses but their focus is directly on gold at the end of rainbow. But successful people concentrate and focus on the whole of rainbow itself, this makes the difference between the lazy and successful people and this makes the journey of successful people successful.
3. You need to challenge the status: everyone likes Bill Gates and Elon Musk and wants to be successful like them but the reason they both are successful is not business, it is innovation. Everyday there are lots of starts up which are so challenging with their norms. There is lot of sudden increase in the business; it brings the modern healthcare to home now days. It has success in delivering anything within a couple of days. Business has led to so needful increasable instinct that there have been developments of the robots which works like humans in their day to day task. More businesses are set up every year as start ups but that does not mean that each of them achieves success, the ones with the dedication and the hard work. It is the job of one to start apart from the others and build their own success.
4. Keep on learning what ever and however you face: success also comes to the end when the person says they have finished learning. It is never always that you know everything it is always somewhere someone who will know more than you. The ones who are really serious about their success will never say at the end so that they know everything. They will always enjoy the constant pursuit of the knowledge. And always it matters is what you learn when you know many things either its knowledge or the discipline.
5. You need to focus on what is possible: what is impossible cannot be done and that is true but what is possible and how you do it and achieve it that matters. You just moan and groan, that will never let you to some success, successful people do not dwell on to the challenges. They always know their limits that what they can achieve and they focus on that thing, they know where to stop and where the sky is showing them the limit. But that does not mean they finished with the limits they try to find out what else can be done within the limits. Knowing how you can do it is the best question to achieve the formulating success.
6. Surround yourself with good and successful people: surrounding yourself with the smart and accomplished people will help you start and generate good ideas rather than being with the lazy bees and generating false ideas and negative vibes around yourself. It is so simple whatever you want to be you need to be with those kinds of people be it being funny or intelligent. Those with whom you spend time with will shape your mind set and behaviours as well. It is the company that will make you good or bad, successful or the loser. Successful people surround themselves with positive vibes as well as with intelligent people . This network of surrounding will build their building of success and will increase the support from good people.
7. You should always try to follow up and never to give up: the most impressive scenario is when you reach success after crossing lots of hurdles and the hardest paths. This is what impressive success is. The fall by successful people is always temporary because they always know to stand up back and to follow the successful path because they know the ways to come out. When they fail, sometimes this is needed because by this only, they will learn the ways to come up again. And when they work in teams then they know the efforts are legitimate and in dynamic ways.
NOW it is your turn! Yes you need to stand up for yourself and achieve your goals. Without knowing what is negative, you will never know what is positive. You don’t need to make an idol and follow what they do in their daily lives, you need to pick up their qualities and then follow those qualities which led them to success. Success is waiting for you, go ahead!(Source: The Christian Post).

Activists, MPs and trade unions have vowed to hold the biggest demonstrations in UK history, outstripping the Iraq war protests, when Donald Trump makes his state visit later this year, and will kick off a programme of opposition to the US president with a migrant solidarity rally on Monday, the Guardian reports.
The Stop Trump coalition has hired a permanent staff member to coordinate protest efforts, with £16,000 raised via crowdfunding and £10,000 donated by the trade union Unison.
The demonstration on Monday is expected to draw more than 10,000 people. It will coincide with a parliamentary debate on a petition signed by 1.8 million people calling for the state visit to be cancelled in order to avoid embarrassment for the Queen.
In an official response rejecting the petition, the government said Trump should still be extended the “full courtesy” of a state visit.
Organisers said the protests, which they hope will last several days and follow Trump throughout his UK visit, would also “hold up a mirror to our own society” over the post-Brexit rise in hate crime and anti-immigrant rhetoric.
“Our hope is that this mass movement can swing public opinion on a range of issues in a way that progressives have never managed before, and on issues on which we have been losing for decades,” the group’s spokesman said.
Several of the UK’s largest unions have given their backing to the march, including Unison, GMB and the National Union of Students. Labour, Liberal Democrat and Green party politicians will attend the protest on Monday and have leant their support to future demonstrations, organisers said.
Caroline Lucas, the Green MP for Brighton Pavilion, said: “The planned state visit should clearly be cancelled and the invitation binned. It’s no wonder that almost 2 million people have signed a petition against the visit, and I’m proud that so many of my constituents have joined that call.
“On Monday evening I will be joining thousands of others in calling out Trump’s Islamophobia and racism and making clear that we expect our government to stand up to bigotry, not meekly back away from confronting it.”
Several organisers involved in the leftwing Labour movement Momentum are key organisers of the demonstration, as is the Guardian columnist and activist Owen Jones.
Charities who have given official backing include Friends of the Earth and Global Justice
Now, as well as smaller UK groups such as Sisters Uncut and Bridges Not Walls, which organised anti-Trump banner drops on dozens of UK bridges including Westminster bridge on the day of the US president’s inauguration.
Organisers say the coalition is not controlled by one dominant organisation. “This is a new kind of coalition, not run by any group or controlled by a central leadership, and committed to a real diversity of tactics,” the group’s spokesman said.
Monday’s rally in Parliament Square will hear from speakers including Lucas, Labour’s Rushanara Ali and the comedian Shappi Khorsandi, who came to Britain as a child refugee from Iran.
Other more explicitly leftwing speakers include the former Respect leader Salma Yaqoob and the NUS president, Malia Bouattia, who attracted some controversy after her election for comments about the influence of “Zionist-led media outlets”.
Monday’s protest is a joint effort with the movement One Day Without Us, promoting the rights of migrants and refugees, which organisers said had been brought into sharp focus by several measures in the first month of Trump’s presidency – the Mexican border wall, a travel ban from seven Muslim-majority countries and a halt to funding for NGOs that provide family planning services.
Kate Allen, UK director of Amnesty International, which is another NGO backing the coalition protests, said: “Some of our worst fears over what a Donald Trump presidency might lead to have already been realised.
“In the end the point isn’t whether Donald Trump gets the full-blown UK state visit treatment, it’s whether we raise our voice against this disastrous rollback of rights. It’s a major human rights fight, and one we can’t afford to lose.”
Activists, MPs and trade unions have vowed to hold the biggest demonstrations in UK history, outstripping the Iraq war protests, when Donald...
It can happen to everyone: it’s time to go to sleep and, suddenly, you start feeling hungry…What should your do? What to eat before bed? Well, you can have a healthy snack or drink a glass of milk, but there are some products that you should, definitely, avoid eating before bed…Let’s talk about those:
1) Pizza and pasta
Avoid eating pizza and pasta right before going to bed, because these meals are pretty heavy and rich in calories; eating this kind of food would give your tummy a real workout at night! When your sleep, your body relaxes and rests, so does your stomach, as well as other organs. On top of that, eating pasta and pizza before bed will, definitely, enlarge your love handles!
2) Coffee
If you want to drink something before hitting your cosy pillow, definitely, don’t go for coffee. In fact, coffee is a stimulant that has prolonged effect on the body (it’s effect will last for many hours), so that you won’t be able to sleep and rest properly; if you drink coffee at night, you might find yourself cleaning the kitchen, washing the floor or cooking three cakes, instead of sleeping; therefore, if you want to indulge yourself with a cup of tasty expresso, do it in the morning!
3) Ice cream
Ice cream is loaded with fats and sugar, it’s an absolute weight gaining bomb! When you inject sugar and fat into your body (by eating an ice cream) before going to sleep, your system won’t be able to burn this explosion of calories and will store them in your waistline for future use. Therefore, if you don’t want to gain weight, avoid eating ice cream before sleeping!
4) Cheese
Cheese is one of the worst foods to eat at night, especially for those who suffer from heartburn. Eating cheese before bed time can feel very heavy on the stomach, therefore, make sure to plan your meals in advance and enjoy that delightful portion of your favorite cheese during daytime instead.
5) Cookies and cakes
Cookies and cakes have similar to ice cream story. Packed with fats and sugar, cookies, cakes and various sweets (as well as chocolate) will give you a buzz at the wrong time. At night, when your body and the whole system try to relax and rest, the least thing you need is energizing sugar kick! If you feel like eating something sweet, make healthier choice and eat a fresh fruit or some berries. Chocolate (especially dark one), on the other hand, contains caffeine and can act as a stimulant, therefore, I suggest that you wait till dawn and then only bite your favorite chocolate bar.
6) Fast food
When you are looking for something to eat before bed time, avoid beef and bacon burgers like a plague. You don’t need this abundant injection of calories right before bed! Eating fast food before your night time rest is a guaranteed sleep killer! Moreover, the production of acid in your stomach will provoke very uncomfortable and unpleasant heartburn. Therefore, if chicken nuggets, french fries, onion rings and big macs appear in your mind when you are heading to bed, kick off these thoughts from your head straight away and drink a glass of water or milk instead.
7) Alcohol
If you want to have “terrible”, sleepless night, when you will wake up multiple times for no particular reason, then drink a glass of wine right before going to bed. Also, consuming alcohol prior to sleep, whether it’s wine, vodka or champagne, will have a big impact on the way your skin looks and feels and it can also aggravate snoring!
8) Soda
Soda, as well as energy drinks (such as red bull, for example) are, definitely, to be avoided, when you are getting ready for a good night rest. Packed with sugar, soda drinks also contain certain chemicals which can aggravate the gastrointestinal tract, therefore, sodas should, absolutely, be avoided at bed-time! If you feel thirsty, drinking a glass of water is the best decision! Also, most colas, as well as red bull contain caffeine, which is not the best friend of your good night sleep!
9) Spicy delicacies
Foods with the use of salsa, mustard and spicy peppers are not the best choice for a bed-time snack! These type of meals can cause strong heartburn and can prevent you from peacefully falling asleep, because of their energy boosting effects.
If you are thirsty at night, go for a glass of water, milk or green tea, if you feel hungry – eat sweet potato, banana, yogurt or rise. (Source: Beauty and Tips)

The Coalition of Urhobo Nation Youth Leaders and Stakeholders (CUNYLS) has demanded that the presidency release a video recording of President Muhammadu Buhari who is currently in the United Kingdom on medical vacation.
The group made the suggestion on Friday, February 17 in a statement signed by Its convener, Comrade Rex Emojite Ekiugbo Anighoro and its acting Coordinator, Comrade Blessed Ughere.
According to Daily Post, the group also demanded a public presentation of the president’s health status. The group further suggested that former President Olusegun Obasanjo and former Vice President Alex Ekwueme should lead a delegation of statesmen to visit the president.
Part of the statement read: “We demand that a delegation of statesmen led by a former president pays a courtesy visit to Mr President in London, or wherever he is, and this visit be visually recorded and relayed to all Nigerians.
“We demand that the president’s state of health be immediately publicly declared for the benefits of all Nigerians.
“We recommend former President Olusegun Obasanjo and former Vice President Alex Ekwueme to lead such delegation.
“We must state here that efforts by the presidency to stifle these rumours have rather given more impetus to the rumours.
“Perhaps it has not come to the realisations of the relevant authorities, but we must state here, that this current state of cul de sac and grave yard silence is an open invitation to power tussle, political imbroglio capable of destabilising the current government from actualisation of their campaign promises to our people.
“The desperation of members of the Presidency begs the question, if the President of Nigeria is healthy enough to receive guests stemmed from his political party’s leadership, why couldn’t he grant a live audience to multitude of Nigerians who thronged to demand that he addresses them.”
President Buhari has been in London since January 19. The presidency had first announced that he was there for a 10-day leave. But he has since extended the leave on medical grounds.

According to a report by USA Today, Sen. John McCain without ever mentioning President Trump by name, used a speech in Germany on Friday as an international platform in an apparent blast at his fellow Republican’s policies and worldview.
Speaking at the 2017 Munich Security Conference, McCain, R-Ariz., chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, warned the world leaders against isolationism. The so-called “think-tank” conference has met for the past five decades, drawing leaders for debate on international security challenges.
“My friends: In the four decades I have attended this conference, I cannot recall a year where its purpose was more necessary or more important,” he said.
“The next panel asks us to consider whether the West will survive. In recent years, this question would invite accusations of hyperbole and alarmism. Not this year. If ever there were a time to treat this question with a deadly seriousness, it is now. “
Trump, who rallied voters during the 2016 campaign with his America-first approach, has criticized NATO, calling it “obsolete” in a January interview with the U.K. news site The Times. Trump’s comments have alarmed European leaders and NATO ally countries.
McCain’s public bickering with Trump has heightened in recent weeks. At the summit, he called on world leaders to take seriously his fears over the president’s policies. According to a transcript posted on McCain’s website, the senator went on to target Trump’s signature enforcement orders and world view.
“What would von Kleist’s generation (the founders of the Munich conference) say if they saw our world today? I fear that much about it would be all-too-familiar to them, and they would be alarmed by it.
“They would be alarmed by an increasing turn away from universal values and toward old ties of blood, and race, and sectarianism.
“They would be alarmed by the hardening resentment we see toward immigrants, and refugees, and minority groups, especially Muslims.
“They would be alarmed by the growing inability, and even unwillingness, to separate truth from lies.
“They would be alarmed that more and more of our fellow citizens seem to be flirting with authoritarianism and romanticizing it as our moral equivalent.”
McCain finished his remarks on an optimistic note, calling on ally countries to join him in denouncing “adversaries” who aim to create divide.
“Make no mistake, my friends: These are dangerous times, but you should not count America out, and we should not count each other out,” he said. “We must be prudent, but we cannot wring our hands and wallow in self-doubt. We must appreciate the limits of our power, but we cannot allow ourselves to question the rightness and goodness of the West. We must understand and learn from our mistakes, but we cannot be paralyzed by fear. We cannot give up on ourselves and on each other. That is the definition of decadence. And that is how world orders really do decline and fall.
“This is exactly what our adversaries want. This is their goal. They have no meaningful allies, so they seek to sow dissent among us and divide us from each other. They know that their power and influence are inferior to ours, so they seek to subvert us, and erode our resolve to resist, and terrorize us into passivity. They know they have little to offer the world beyond selfishness and fear, so they seek to undermine our confidence in ourselves and our belief in our own values,” he said.
According to a report by USA Today , Sen. John McCain without ever mentioning President Trump by name, used a speech in Germany on Friday a...
