Everybody talks about this life work balance story but I’m not a believer in life work balance being eight hours here, eight hours there. It’s about being happy in yourself; when I’m living I’m working and when I”m working I’m living and it’s what I want to be doing, because I’m with people I like and it’s fun, it’s not stress. Stress is a danger, but stress is caused by frustration. If you’re in charge of your own future, your own destiny, then it’s just hard work. Hard work never killed anybody.

Me of I

It’s a true fact,
I don’t really act.
If you think about it,
You’ll doubt about it.
You not gonna find
What lies in my mind
Sometime I get mad,
It also make me sad.
When fate is sad,
It ain’t my bad.
You really know,
how hard I do.
It doesn’t make any sense,
When you make such a non-sense.
I’m walking in a dream,
In a fire of a stream.
It burning my trees,
taking away the breeze.
All those myth,
Shouting like a thief.
I am the king of my bing.
Else nothing to think.
This is gift of life,
Live it how ever you like.

Experiments are important, because doing something new will be what sets you apart from the others, and ultimately will be your key to success. But experiments in their nature will inevitably lead you to failure. Sorry, but it’s true. What’s crucial is that you take that failure, learn from it, and get back on the horse and start the cycle all over again. Each time you’ll be a bit more wise, and eventually, you’ll get it. by StartupVitamins

KONY 2012 is a film and campaign by Invisible Children that aims to make Joseph Kony famous, not to celebrate him, but to raise support for his arrest and set a precedent for international justice.

Who is Joseph Kony?

Joseph Kony is the world’s worst war criminal. In 1987 he took over leadership of an existing rebel group and renamed it the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA).

The LRA has earned a reputation for its cruel and brutal tactics. When Joseph Kony found himself running out of fighters, he started abducting children to be soldiers in his army or “wives” for his officers. The LRA is encouraged to rape, mutilate, and kill civilians–often with blunt weapons.

A man sat at a metro station in Washington DC and started to play the violin; it was a cold January morning. He played six Bach pieces for about 45 minutes. During that time, since it was rush hour, it was calculated that thousands of people went through the station, most of them on their way to work. Three minutes went by and a middle aged man noticed there was musician playing. He slowed his pace and stopped for a few seconds and then hurried up to meet his schedule. A minute later, the violinist received his first dollar tip: a woman threw the money in the till and without stopping continued to walk.
