Until one is committed…

March 3rd, 2015|

Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back– Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one elementary truth that ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one’s favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamed would have come his way. Whatever you can do, or dream you can do, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it. Begin it now.

— W.H. Murray

a man can master

January 4th, 2014|

A conscious man can master in a few months skills a “normal” person may need 10 years to just learn. If you’re able to do one thing consciously, you can do anything. But we can’t understand what it means to do something consciously since we live through everything mechanically.

Lapas

Lapas are daily visitors in our region. They’re particularly fond of the seeds of the Teak trees which are very prolific in this season. We have a teak forest of about 40 acres that’s a big attraction for these amazing birds. The teak plantation was planted about 20 years ago when some of our land was used for forestry.
