DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Japanese legend of Maneki Neko, the beckoning cat, who is a symbol of good luck and good fortune in many Asian countries. In a small Japanese village, a poor monk and his cat Tama live a simple life at the Kotoku Monastery. One day, a great storm passes through the village, and Tama is caught in the rain outside the temple. She waits under the eaves of a small shrine, cleaning her face and whiskers as best she can with her paw. A noble samurai is also passing through, and stops his horse under the cover of a large tree. But through the rain, what does he see? A cat with a raised paw, beckoning him forward? Curious, the samurai urges his horse forward. Just then, a bolt of lightning flashes and strikes the tree behind him, splitting it in two. The beckoning cat has saved his life. In his gratitude, the samurai brings riches to the small temple and the monk, who shares his wealth with the village. So goes the Japanese legend of Maneki Neko, the beckoning cat. And to this day, the cat with raised paw beckoning guests is a symbol of good luck and good fortune in many Asian countries.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKManeki-neko, the Lucky Cat! Maneki-neko is a Japanese figure that is believed to bring good luck and fortune. Known also as Lucky Cat, Money Cat or Furtune Cat, they date back to the 1800's. If you love Japanese culture. If you're looking to bring fortune into your life, then you need the Lucky Cat Notebook Laptop Or Paper Notebook? Technology promises to make our lives more productive. Indeed, some things are faster and easier than ever. Unfortunately, a lot of technology is designed for the task, not for the user. As a result, people are able to take more notes, yet understand less. Have you ever taken copious notes in a class or meeting using your computer only to realize afterwards you still didn't understand? Taking notes on paper forces you to synthesize rather than merely transcribe. Because you desire comprehension and understanding rather than simple transcription, the Lucky Cat Notebook is a must. Studies About Benefits of Paper Notebooks Don't just take my word, based on a study conducted at UCLA, the Association for Psychological Science indicated that "taking notes by hand is better than taking notes on a laptop for remembering". Will you take advantage of this knowledge to gain an edge on your competition at school, work, or business? How will better understanding make things help you achieve your goals? Organize Your Life Get rid of little scraps of paper you use to capture inspirations and ideas, daily tasks, notes, and phone numbers. Use the Lucky Cat Notebook to neatly organize your life. Feel Better By Logging Your Progress In my corporate days, I'd instruct employees to write down accomplishments as they happened. During annual reviews, we are bogged down with current issues and activities and it's hard to remember the great things we did 9, 6, or even 3 months ago. Write down your accomplishments with your hobbies, weight loss, and other life goals. Use the Lucky Cat Notebook to look back feel good about yourself and the things you've done!
