People want to feel inspired, guided and taught by great teachers who with their experience, achievement and words of wisdom  have accomplished great things for which the world should always be thankful for.  I thought that the best way to relate to you those words of wisdom will be for all of us to become a Student (S) listening to the wise words of our great Masters (M).

S~  Good morning Master, I was not able to sleep last night because I had this question in my head to which I could not find any answer: What is my place in the world and how can I become as great as you? But I could not come with any answer. I am hoping that you will be able to enlighten me great Master.

M~ "Well my son, "You don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great" - Zig Ziglar. You see, a lot of people accumulate a lot of knowkedge but "knowing without doing is not knowing at all" - Anthony Robbins. "Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending".

M~ Listen carefully my son: "As a rule, men worry more about what they can't see then about what they can" - Julius Ceasar. "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself"- Franklin Roosevelt. "Courage is not the abscence of fear but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he would conquers that fear; and remember the greatest glory in living lies not in never falling but in rising everytime we fall" - Nelson Mandela. "You may be disappointed if you fail but you are doomed if you don't try".

S~ So are you saying that it is important to give it a go and give it your best shot even if it means making mistakes along the way?

M~ That is right my son. "Most people live and die with their music still unplayed. They
