Wisdom from Ingvar Kamprad

 He was the founder of IKEA and he had a great philosophy of life:

"Happiness is not reaching your goal. Happiness is being on the way. It is our wonderful fate to be just at the beginning."   

He was a billionaire, and yet he tells us,  Happiness is being on the way.  Better, it is WONDERFUL to be just at the beginning!  

Right now, yes, it is wonderful, we can look out any day or night, and say, Yes, I am at the beginning of something grea!

The first step is the most exciting!

I am actually DOING something!

On Day 22 or the 3rd year, it is still exciting every day!

Why?

Happiness is being on the way, our fate is wonderful, and every day is exciting for us!

We have started something new!

We are benefitting everyone!!

Be proud of what you do, whether you start a new ultra business, social business, or work at a job you love.

Happiness is being on the way, and sharing the wonder with those you love!

Dream big!

How Can Live Your Dream Every Day

Here are some great ideas from Dr. Yunus, 2006 Nobel Prize Winner.  He encourages us all to think in the best possible terms:   “Think and Act Like Job Creators” "Another area that Yunus is passionate about is creating a world without unemployment. He believes that we can create that world by encouraging the youth to think and act like job creators. He worries that today’s youth is only focused on seeking salaried jobs, rather than being able to think from an entrepreneurial perspective. This is especially a problem since the number of salaried jobs available has not kept pace with the demand in regions such as Bangladesh." “ A job is an old-fashioned idea from the twentieth century,” states Yunus. He believes that the popular idea of jobs did not exist until after the industrial revolution (with the arrival of current education system). To encourage the second generation of Grameen Bank loan-seekers to be entrepreneurial, he tells them, “How did your mother manage to create...
