3. I am not going to tell you the story of an extraordinary person, who did remarkable things in life. Why should I?
Are you not an extraordinary person? What do you think about yourself? You possess all the assets of an extraordinary
person but, unfortunately, you are not an extraordinary person because you don’t think so.
Your low belief level about your own capabilities is blocking your way in achieving extraordinary success in life. Your
Creator gave you the equal opportunity of becoming an extraordinary person in your own individual manner. He
equipped your body with the same tools and gadgets as he equipped the body of any other extraordinary person. No
extraordinary organ has been implanted by God in the bodies of those people who are living or have lived an
extraordinary life.
You must be working hard to maintain a reasonable standard of life for yourself and your family. Is it enough? Can you
become an extraordinary person just by doing 9 to 5 jobs? Absolutely not! Don’t walk on the off-beaten tracks paved
for the ordinary people. Don’t follow the crowd and don’t copy others. You are not an ordinary person.
There is an extraordinary person within you. Give that person a chance to lead you. The more you seek guidance from
your inner-self, the more you feel confident about your capabilities as an extraordinary person.
Being an extraordinary person, with a strong belief level, you can go to the peak of success, beyond any person’s
imagination. Raise up your arms in the air, smile and let the world praise you as an extraordinary person.
Do you need any extraordinary skills to become an extraordinary person? Not necessarily! A little guidance from your
inner-self and the wise management of your time is all that you need to bring a positive revolution in your life. But
most importantly, you must enhance your belief level to become an extraordinary person.
Are you an extraordinary person? Still undecided!

4. A little boy went into a store, reached for a carton and pulled it over to the telephone.
He climbed onto the carton so that he could reach the buttons on the phone
and proceeded to punch in seven digits.
The store owner observed and listened to the conversation.
The boy asked, "Maam : Can you give me the job of cutting your lawn?
The woman replied : "I already have someone to cut my lawn.“
"I will cut your lawn for half the price of the person who cuts your lawn now." replied
the boy. The woman responded that she was very satisfied with the person who was
presently cutting her lawn .
The little boy was even more perseverant and said,
"I'll even sweep your curb and your sidewalk, so on Sunday you will have the prettiest
lawn in all of Palm beach , Florida .“
Again the woman answered in the negative.
With a smile on his face, the little boy replaced the receiver.
The store owner, who was listening to this conversation, walked over to the boy and
said,
"Son I like your attitude; I like that positive spirit and would like to offer you a job."
The little boy replied, "No thanks,
I was just checking my performance on the job I already have.
I am the one who is working for the lady I was talking to!"

7. A man once visited a temple under construction where he saw a sculptor making
An idol of God. Suddenly he noticed a similar idol lying nearby. Surprised, he
asked the sculptor, “Do you need two statues of the same idol?”
“No,” said the sculptor without looking up,
“We need only one, but the first one got damaged at the last stage” The
Gentleman examined the idol and found no apparent damage.
“Where is the damage?” he asked.
“There is a scratch on the nose of the idol.” said the sculptor, still busy with his
work.
“Where are you going to install the idol?”, he asked the sculptor.
The sculptor replied that it would be installed on a pillar twenty feet high. “If the
Idol is that far, who is going to know that there is a scratch on the nose?” the
Gentleman asked.
The sculptor stopped his work, looked up at the gentleman, smiled and said, “Iwill
know it.”

8. A well known author and poet was working and vacationing on the southern coast of Spain. One
morning, very early, he was walking along the beach.
The sun was just rising, the rain had ended, the rainbows were magnificent, the sea calm. While enjoying the
beauty about him, he glanced down the beach and saw a lone figure dancing about.
Fascinated by this other person celebrating the day that was to dawn, he moved closer. As he came nearer, he
realized that the young man was not dancing, but in one graceful movement was picking objects up from off the
beach and tossing them into the sea. As he approached the young man, he saw that the objects were starfish.
"Why in the world are you throwing starfish into the water?" he asked.
"If the starfish are still on the beach when the tide goes out and the sun rises higher in the sky, they will die," replied
the young man as he continued tossing them out to sea.
"That's ridiculous! There are thousands of miles of beach and millions of starfish. You can't really believe that what
you are doing could possibly make a difference."
The young man picked up another starfish, paused thoughtfully and remarked as he tossed it out into the waves, "It
makes a difference to this one."

10. An Eagle's egg was placed in the nest of a prairie chicken. The egg
hatched and the little eagle grew up thinking it was a prairie chicken.
The eagle did what the prairie chickens did.
It scratched in the dirt for seeds. It Clucked and cackled.
It never flew more than a few feet because that is what the prairie
chickens did. One day he saw an eagle flying gracefully and majestically
in the open sky.
He asked the prairie chickens:" What is that beautiful bird?".
Chickens Replied, "That is an eagle. He is an outstanding bird, but you
cannot fly like him because you are just a prairie chicken."
So the eagle never gave it a second thought, believing that to be the truth.
He lived the life of and died a prairie chicken, depriving himself of his
Heritage because of his lack of vision. What a waste!
He Was born to win, but conditioned to lose.

11. Two monks were washing their bowls in the
river when they noticed a scorpion that was
drowning. One monk immediately scooped it up
and set it upon the bank. In the process he was
stung. He went back to washing his bowl and
again the Scorpion fell in. The monk saved the
scorpion and was again stung. The other monk
asked him, "Friend, why do you continue to save
the scorpion when you know its nature is to
sting?"
"Because," the monk replied, "to save it is my
nature."

12. A fisherman observed a snake swimming towards his boat.
When the snake reached the boat the fisherman could see that he had a
frog in his mouth. Feeling sorry for the frog he reached down and
carefully removed the frog from the snakes mouth and set it free.
But then, feeling sorry for the snake he looked around to see what he
could give him. He found a bottle of bourbon, poured a capful and gave
it to the snake.
The snake then swam away.
The fisherman was feeling content from his good deeds when about ten
minutes later he heard a knocking at the side of the boat.
When he looked over the side he saw the snake had returned . . .
this time with "two" frogs in his mouth.
