Superlatives of Life, Supernova of Lessons

More important than length of life is how we spend each day.” (Marcia A. Fustado)
You only live once – but if you work it right, once is enough.” (Joe E. Lewis)

I love to read books and listen to audiobooks on the subject of Christian living, Leadership, Inspiration, a bit of ancient mysteries and business (for general knowledge) – and of course self-help. Yes, self-help books. I’m interest in the study of life and human potentials.
A recent research on Amazon.com turned up 18,726 self-help titles, while Barnes & Noble claimed 23,070 books in this same category! People around the world are curious about the mystery of life, and how to live a more fulfilling life. (No wonder Rick Warren’s The Purpose-Driven Life (2002) sold millions of copies around the world!)

Recently, I found a short article or rather a summary on the most essentials SUPERLATIVES of Life. I thought it would be helpful for me to share with the curious, the seekers, the lifetime students, and the “who-want-to-improve-your-life” readers to noted the summary below;
