| "Life
is no brief candle to me. It is a sort of splendid torch which I have
got
a hold of for the moment, and I want to make it burn as brightly as
possible
before handing it on to future generations." -- George
Bernard Shaw
"Life
is what we make it. Always has been, always will be." --
Grandma Moses
"Out
of love and hatred, out of earnings and borrowings and leadings and
losses;
out of sickness and pain; out of wooing and worshipping; out of
traveling
and voting and watching and caring; out of disgrace and contempt, comes
our tuition in the serene and beautiful laws." -– Ralph
Waldo Emerson
|
"Those
with influence seem to have a way of making others feel better by being
around them than by not being around them." -– Bob
Burg
"One
man practicing sportsmanship is far better than a hundred teaching it."
-- Knute Rockne
"There
comes that mysterious meeting in life when someone acknowledges who we
are and what we can be, igniting the circuits of our highest
potential."
-- Rusty Berkus

The Choice Is
Yours...Plan Now...OR...Pay Later!
Spending
a little
time and money NOW
in planning your estate can yield substantial benefits...
- You
have the opportunity
to arrange your estate in such a way as to minimize taxes and estate
settlement
costs, leaving more of your assets to your family.
- You
are able to
accomplish
your goals and objectives for the disposition of your assets.
- Your
family can continue
to benefit from your knowledge and experience, even after you are gone.
|
The
other choice
is to let others -- the courts, attorneys -- do your estate planning
after
your death.
The
end result
of this choice is usually increased costs, delays and frustration for
your
family.

WHAT
IS YOUR BASIC RESOURCE? by Tom Hopkins
What
is your most basic resource? It's not money, not brains, not who you
know.
Your basic resource is time. Unless you use your time well, you'll
never
even get a glimpse of what your potential is. Using your time well
isn't
easy -- which is why so few people do it. We all have challenges with
organizing
our lives, setting priorities, and planning our time.
Regardless
of what you do in life, time is money. If I gave you a check for
$86,400
and said, "From this moment you have 24 hours to invest it. You can
invest
in anything you want to with this money. Whatever you don't invest, I
get
back tomorrow at this exact same moment." What would you do during the
next 24 hours? You'd be out there working hard and fast to invest that
$86,400, wouldn't you?
That
being your attitude, why aren't you busily investing as much as you can
of the 86,400 seconds given to you every day? That's right -- at the
beginning
of every day we're all given 86,400 seconds. As each second ticks by,
we've
lost the benefit of it forever unless we find a way to invest that
moment
in the future.
The
seconds of your life -- and that's the way you live it, one second at a
time -- can be invested in countless ways that will bring you a future
return. Many of these ways will give you repeated returns stretching
over
many years. You can invest your seconds in the creation of future
income,
in gaining new knowledge and acquiring useful skills, in making
contacts,
in enhancing your personal life. The methods of gaining future benefits
from present time are myriad. And so are the ways of wasting time. The
seconds you squander vanish forever with no potential return. If you
don't
invest your daily treasure of 86,400 seconds wisely, in essence you
hand
them back at the end of each day to the force that gave them to you.
So,
invest your time wisely.
