Your ideal neighbors - who are they?

 

One of my goals on the way to self-knowledge was to draw up a list of people with whom I would like to live in the neighborhood. It could be men and women - both once lived and my contemporaries, - to which I would like to drop by for a cup of tea once - the other, or together to laugh at some - some joke. The procedure itself is the list of their "perfect neighbors" will remind you of the many qualities and character traits that you most appreciate in people. Finally, it is a great way to enjoy the thirty minutes of his life.

Here are people who are in my list:

• Norman Vincent Peale, author of the famous book "The Power of Positive Thinking";

• Henry David Thoreau, the great American philosopher and author of one of my favorite books - "Walden";

Baltasar Gracian •, a Jesuit scholar, who became one of the greatest writers of Spain;

• Billie Holiday, the greatest jazz singer;

• Nelson Mandela, fought for the rights of the people;

• Og Mandino, author of such classic self-help books like "The best way to live" and "University of Success";

• Mother Teresa, known gumanistka;

• Richard Branson, the British magnate and adventurer;

• Pierre Elliott Trudeau, a man who clearly established himself as prime minister of Canada;

• Miles Davis, the legendary trumpet player;

• Muhammad Ali, boxing champion;

• Benjamin Franklin, an eminent statesman.

And now drafted a list of those people with whom you would like to live on one street.Then think about what qualities these people cause your respect. Now you can try to develop these qualities in yourself. To have a clear idea of ​​life, one must first understand what life is.

And to be a person, which you would like to be a need to understand what traits should have this personality.
