Hello All!
This is not my first post, but first I would like to bring attention, that there are really some nice links to pages that are really awesome.
Are you or anyone around you having health problems? Then it might be worth taking a look in Nutrition A to Z for the answers. The site is from my awesome friend Kenneth, do let him share what he knows with you!
Are you, or anyone interested in acquiring knowledge, that will lead you to success? Knowledge is potential power, but what knowledge is it that I am referring to? The site is done up by my best friend & brother of over a decade (12years on & counting to be exact), Kelvin! So it will be a good idea to pop by and grab some food for the brain in Success Philosophy!

The Vertical Alignment
"Bigger the struggle, sweeter the victory"
The month of December saw a decision being made. A decision between making a breakthrough in business and replacing the fridge at home. It was really hard, but in the end it had to come to a real crunch time. A blessing, will be to use the Vertical Alignment. What is the Vertical Alignment? it goes like this:
Spiritual Faith
Family
Job
Personal Business
The abovementioned shows the Vertical Alignment. A quick explanation: The Spiritual Faith is your own religion (whichever you believe in), Family is our own family, Job is the the current job we are holding, and Personal Business is whatever you have chosen to do. In the Vertical Alignment, it is very important that you get it right especially for the family part and job part. Why is this so?
The family is very important, because it is what we call "home". In it are our parents and siblings, and it is very important to be able to communicate effectively with our families about our dreams and why we are in business. If there is little or no communication, there might be challenges in that our family may not understand it and come to oppose what we are doing. If anything happens within the family, you might find it hard to stay in the business you have chosen to build. Hence the importance in having a peaceful and understanding family through communication and understanding on our own part, that they are important.
Next up, Job. We all know that we are building our businesses for freedom from our job, but why is it that still it is important? Because the pay from the job is required for survival when we build our businesses. It is what will pay our bills, meals and other daily expenses as we build our businesses. Without the paycheck a whole lot of other things will not have been made possible. Hence no matter how tired you are of your job because of the business you are building or investing in, it is still important to be able to get yourself out of bed and to work, because you should always remember that building a business for your freedom is one for the long term, and in the meanwhile still turn up for work as your business continues to grow. A disruption in employment may prove to be a distraction to the business you are building.
So in the end, what was my choice? Buying a new fridge, or a breakthrough in my business? You've got it, it was buying the new fridge! :)
"Bigger the struggle, sweeter the victory" was the opening line to this post, and if you have ready made success, will you treasure it? To me, I would think no, because it is only because of the challenges and struggles in between us and success that truly makes victory sweet to savour!
