NIGHT BEFORE THE WEDDING
You've crossed one thing after another on your wedding to-do lists, but now as the day approaches in less than 24 hours, here is a list of 19 things to remember to do before you climb into your wedding dress and let out a confident "I Do" to your very own prince charming.
1. Eat a healthy meal.
Though the greasy pizza and the bag of cool ranch Doritos might be screaming your name, stick to the fresh fruit and the whole grains.
Facebook's row over Vietnam photo shows how Mark Zuckerberg has become a media tycoon by stealth
Only a few days ago, Mark Zuckerberg told
an audience of Italian students that he was the boss of a technology firm, not
a media company.
Even at the time, it was clear that the Facebook

as the Vietnam photo controversy has made glaringly clear, the
32-year-old is indeed a media tycoon. The most powerful one there has ever
been.

likes football, there are no comparisons.

The Queen of England may be 90, but she proved
on Friday that she can still chauffeur family members to gatherings

What are you Sowing? And what do you intend to Reap
The reason I so like the verse in James is that it
brings us a picture of what we must do to bring the harvest of righteousness
about, we must sow the seeds of righteousness, seed by seed, so that our
harvest will be plentiful. We must sow seeds daily---weekly--for our whole
lives, that there will be remnants of His beauty, peace, redemption, everywhere
we go, every day that we live.
Develop New Plans
There are two times when a person is likely to quit, after a failure or after a victory. Instead, if at first you do succeed, try something harder. All progress is due to those who were not satisfied to let well enough alone.

GIVING UP IS NOT THE BEST OPTION
It doesn’t take nine ‘no’s’ to get to a ‘yes’:
If you’ve ever done any sales training, the old adage goes that the ratio of ‘no’s’ to ‘yes’s’ is 9 to 1. So it takes nine ‘no’s’ to get to a ‘yes’.
If you’re an entrepreneur, you know this isn’t true.
