Hello Friends,

I am really excited. The new year is just around the corner. The promise it holds, the power it creates within you for all the good that is just waiting to happen has an effect on you which is just too good to explain. The month of December always has a magic of its own. The weather is pleasant. There is an air of expectancy, of change, and an optimistic outlook for the coming new year. Christmas reiterates and strengthens this magical and exciting feelings with its own celebration of the love and hope.

I am sure all of you too feel the positive currents of December. If not here is how you can get excited about the future. We all tend to measure our success with material progress as the only yardstick. However real progress is achieved by intangibles which lead towards money and wealth.

Just look at al the new things you learned, new knowledge acquired, new friends and relationships created, new experiences which have made you richer, new courses and seminars attended, new books which you read and the new maturity you attained as a person. These are the assets which have been added to your personal balance sheet. Leveraging these assets you can always create more wealth. Give it its due time. Meet the coming year head on with your goals so that you are prepared for all the great opportunities just waiting around the corner.

Friends, just relax and enjoy the festivities and the holidays.

Here is an extract from the Book "Murphy's Law and other reasons why things go wrong!" by Arthur Bloch. Have a good laugh.

Gordon's First Law:
If a research project is not worth doing at all, it is
not worth doing well.
Murphy's Law of Research:
Enough research will tend to support your theory.
Maiers's Law:
If the the facts do not conform to the theory, they
must be disposed off.
Corollaries:
1.. The bigger the theory the better.
2. The experiment may be considered a success if no
more than 50% of the observed measurements must be
discarded to obtain a correspondence with the theory
Williams and Holland's Law:
If enough data is collected, anything may be proven
by statistical methods.
Rule of Accuracy:
When working toward the solution of a problem, it
always helps if you know the answer
Young's Law:
All great discoveries are made by mistake.
Corollary:
The greater the funding, the longer
it takes to make the mistake.
Futility Factor:
No experiment is ever a complete failure - it can always
serve as a negative example.
