Age or Luck is not a problem

   When we think that we can do a particular task, it can be done. There is no place for our age and luck. Some times, luck could be helpful for a person. But remember, luck helps those help themselves. We can conquer luck by our passion and hard work.

   Youth is a liability only when the youth thinks it is. What really matters is how well you know your job. If you know your job and understand people, you are sufficiently mature to handle it. Age has no real relation to ability, unless you convince yourself that years alone will give you the staff you need to make your mark.

   Invest fortune time in doing what you really want to do. It’s only too late when you let your mind go negative and think it’s too late too. Stop thinking, “I should have started years ago”. That’s failure thinking. Instead think, “I am going to start now, my best years are ahead of me.” That’s the way successful people think.

   Compute how much productive time you have left. A person in age 30 still has 80 percent of his productive life ahead of him. The 50 year old person still has a big 40 percent- the best 40 percent of his opportunity hears left. Life is actually longer than most people think!

   Look at your present age positively. Think “I am still young”, not “I am already old”. Practice looking forward to new horizons and gain the enthusiasm and the feel of youth.

   Conquer luck exquisites in two ways…

   Accept the law of cause and effect. Take a second look at what appears to be someone’s “good luck”. You will find not luck but preparation, planning and self-producing thinking preceded his good fortune. Take a second look at what appears to be someone’s “bad luck”. Look, you will discover certain specific reasons.

   Don’t be a wishful thinker. Don’t waste your mental muscles dreaming of an effortless way to win success. We don’t become successful simply through luck. Success comes from doing those things and mastering those principles that produce success. Don’t count on luck for promotions, victories, and the good thing in life. Luck simply isn’t designed to deliver these good things. Instead, just concentrate on developing those qualities in yourself that will make you a winner. 

Henry Ford, a perfect Business man and Automobile Engineer

   A man who was failed in his early businesses and left him broke five times before he founded the successful company. This man was the world famous business man and engineer, who is known for his innovative assembly line and American-made cars even today. He is Henry Ford and his Ford Motor Company.
   Henry Ford was born on July 30, 1863 on a Michigan farm. Henry Ford spent his childhood on his family's farm, located just outside of Detroit, Michigan, U.S.A. When Henry was twelve, his mother died. After the death of his mother, Henry had a strained relationship with his father. His father hoped that Henry would someday take over the family farm. But Henry Ford preferred to be an engineer.  
   From an early age, Henry Ford loved to take things apart and put them back together again just to see how they worked. Especially adept at doing this with watches, his neighbors and friends would bring him their broken watches to fix. Although good with watches, Henry's passion was machines. Henry Ford believed that machines could change the life of a farmer by replacing farm animals. At age 16, Henry Ford left the farm to take a learner ship as a machinist in Detroit. In the years that followed, Henry Ford would learn to skillfully operate and service steam engines, and would also study bookkeeping.
   In 1882, Henry Ford finished his apprenticeship and was thus a complete machinist. Westinghouse hired Henry Ford to demonstrate and operate their steam engines on nearby farms during the summers. During the winters, Henry Ford stayed on his father's farm, attentively working on building a lighter steam engine. 
   It was during this time that Henry Ford met Clara Ala Bryant. Henry's father gave him a large piece of land on which he built a small house, a sawmill and a shop to tinker in.

Knowledge is power, when we use it constructively



    Knowledge is power, when we use it constructively.  We often hear that, ” knowledge is power.” But this statement is only a half-truth. Knowledge is only potential power. Knowledge is power only when put to use and then only when the use made of it is constructive.

    
    The story is told that the great scientist Albert Einstein was once asked how many feet are in a mile. Einstein’s reply was, “I don’t know. Why should I fill my brain with of facts like this? I can find in two minutes in any standard reference book.” Albert Einstein taught us a big lesson. He felt it was more important to use your mind to think than to use it as a warehouse for facts.


One time Henry Ford was involved in a libel suit with the Chicago Tribune. The Tribune had called Henry Ford an ignoramus and Ford, a man of great respect, said in effect, “prove it.” The tribune asked him scores of simple questions such as “Who was Benedict Arnold?”, ”When was the revolutionary war fought?” and others, most of which Henry Ford, who had little formal education, could not answer.
