See The Positiveness In Every Situation!

In everything, goodness is there. Our goal is to find it. In every person, the best is there, our job is to recognise it. In every situation, the positive is there, our opportunity is to see it. In every problem, the solution is there, our responsibility is to provide it. In every setback, the success is there, our adventure is to discover it. In every crisis, the reason is there, our challenge is to understand it. By seeing the goodness, we'll be very enthusiastic and our lives will be all the richer.

Simple Secrets To A Happy Life. . .

Spiritual Journey

The spiritual journey is individual, highly personal. It can't be organized or regulated. It isn't true that everyone should follow one path. Listen to your own truth.

- Ram Dass

All Is A Miracle

People usually consider walking on water or in thin air a miracle. But I think the real miracle is not to walk either on water or in thin air, but to walk on earth. Every day we are engaged in a miracle which we don't even recognize: a blue sky, white clouds, green leaves, the black, curious eyes of a child -- our own two eyes. All is a miracle.

REGULAR POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT IS THE SECRET

Science has demonstrated positive inspiration has a dramatic effect on human motivation, perceptions, performance outcomes, and overall well-being.
They key to applying this strategy is a regular intake of positive affect that generates cognitive processes in the brain (thinking). We include the self-assessment questions on each topic to force brain processing.

This thinking drives motivation levels, which are the fuel for internal changes and paradigm shifts. Regular reinforcement is required to transform behavior over time. Learn more on the science behind this strategy:

Discover All the Barriers

Your task is not to seek for love,
but merely to discover
all the barriers within you
that you have built
against it.

The Movement of Your Own Thinking

Have you ever sat very quietly with closed eyes and watched the movement of your own thinking? Have you watched your mind working?or rather, has your mind watched itself in operation, just to see what your thoughts are, what your feelings are, how you look at the trees, at the flowers, at the birds, at people, how you respond to a suggestion or react to a new idea? Have you ever done this?

- Jiddu Krishnamurti

Nothing But Time (original)

Allow Your Strength To Be Revealed In Your Words And Actions !

The method to finish a weakness is to be detached from it. When there is some weakness working within that has to be overcome, it is very essential for one to get detached from it, that means not to identify with the weakness. If there is an identification with the weakness, it is further strengthened and there is the inability to get rid of it. Since it is there in the consciousness, it is visible in the words and actions too. When we are free from the identification with the weakness, we are able to bring about a change very quickly. We find it very easy to stabilise ourselves in the awareness of our strength and allow that strength to be revealed in all our words and actions. There is no heaviness of the weakness nor is there the feeling of having to give up something, but transformation takes place very easily.

- Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Life's Challenges

Self-acceptance comes from meeting life's challenges vigorously. Don't numb yourself to your trials and difficulties, nor build mental walls to exclude pain from your life. You will find peace not by trying to escape your problems, but by confronting them courageously. You will find peace not in denial, but in victory.

Everyday Experiences

Life

We act as though comfort and luxury were the chief requirements of life, when all that we need to make us happy is something to be enthusiastic about.

Change

The Treasure of Experience

The biggest treasure of all is the treasure of experience. The one who has the treasure of experience is able to bring benefit to others. He is clear in thinking and accurate in judgment. So he is naturally able to give directions or corrections based on his own experiences and is also successful in it. Also there is equality in what he talks and does. To be an embodiment of experience means to learn from everything that happens. So when we are able to become an embodiment of experience, we are able to feel mastery over every situation that comes our way. The power of our experience enables us to move lightly through all situations.

Courage

Moral courage and character go hand in hand .... a man of real character is consistently courageous, being imbued with a basic integrity and a firm sense of principle.

- Martha Boaz

Benediction: The Salt of the Earth

Boost Your Energy

If you work constantly you will make some progress, that’s a rule. You may have the impression that you’re not going anywhere but that’s because you’re skipping all those little milestones you go through every day. Watching back with satisfaction at what you created will surely boost your energy.

Accept Your Mistakes

You’re human. We, humans, are making mistakes. Accept what you did wrong and try to do better next time. No need to punish yourself forever. In fact, accepting your mistakes is the only way to make them disappear.

Generosity

Giving presents is a talent; to know what a person wants, to know when and how to get it, to give it lovingly and well. Unless a character possesses this talent there is no moment more annihilating to ease than that in which a present is received and given.

- Pamela Glenconner

Compassion

The act of compassion begins with full attention, just as rapport does. You have to really see the person. If you see the person, then naturally, empathy arises. If you tune into the other person, you feel with them. If empathy arises, and if that person is in dire need, then empathic concern can come. You want to help them, and then that begins a compassionate act. So I'd say that compassion begins with attention.

Setting a Goal

Setting a goal is not the main thing. It is deciding how you will go about achieving it and staying with that plan.

Trust

The inability to open up to hope is what blocks trust, and blocked trust is the reason for blighted dreams.

Kaizen: Stepping Stones for Change

Finish Each Day and Be

Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.

- Ralph Waldo Emerson

Words Hurt

Yes, words that we say to our children may harm them and hurt them more than a knife or a candle flame. And often, it left a deep scar that still unhealed until they grown up.
Words do hurt. Not because they are words, but because they actually mean something.

If you want to be a winner in each area of your life, learn to harness your word power to work for you, not against you. Select words that create a visual of the desired outcome; and choose each word as if it mattered. You might be surprised how much it does.

The Goodness Within You

Introspection enables one to be free from the influence of negativity. Introspection means the desire to be good. Introspection brings the ability to look within and see the true self in the mirror of the heart, thus enabling one to activate the inner spirituality. Then all effort made will be towards activating this inherent goodness. And slowly one finds that the behaviour associated with negative traits are no more expressed, as they begin to lose their hold. When I am able to introspect and look within, I can find the goodness that is there within me. Because of this, I naturally am free from expectations from others that they should recognise my goodness or consider me good. Instead I find myself content with what I am and continue to bring out the best from within me. I continue to learn from all situations and experience progress.

- Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Beyond the Canvas

Never look up to the people who have the painted-perfect lives, because try as they might, they can never see beyond the canvas.

Finding Your Path to Prosperity

Prosperity is balanced well-being throughout your life and the fastest way to creating and growing prosperity throughout your life is to pursue your highest call, live according to your highest values and live with passion.

Prosperity is a lifelong journey that you grow overtime as you grow as a person. Thinking positive is the best kick start around. From your first dollar, your first breath and your first words of the day believe that you are rich beyond measure, you have health to sustain your journey and your words speak of faith and confidence in your present and future. It starts with that first thought. What you think determines what you see, hear say towards your own prosperity and success. Motivation is sustained through vision and hope. Nourish your dreams with good thinking, good words and good action.

The great thing about finding your prosperity is that your prosperity is unleashed through discovery. You aren't here to get it all and have it all at one time and in one lump sum. You have to discover your purpose and pursue your highest good and your prosperity is invariably attached to your mission in life.

Keep the Goals in Mind

Live your life each day as you would climb a mountain. An occasional glance towards the summit keeps the goal in mind, but many beautiful scenes are to be observed from each new vintage point.

- Harold B. Melchart

"Trail Behind" (Original)

The Human Heart

In the Chinese language the word for ‘busy' is composed of two characters – ‘heart' and ‘killer'. Only one hundred years ago the breakdown of the strongest pump in the world, the human heart, was still regarded as a medical curiosity. Fast forward to the 21 st Century where ‘busy' is the byword for modern living, and it is no surprise that hundreds of thousands of hearts now fail every year. Yet the true heart of each one of us is not within our body, but within our consciousness. For the spiritually minded it is the soul, because soul is what we are.

Xavier Rudd

Inspiring Someone

"The greatest good you can do for another is not just share your riches, but to reveal to him, his own."

The truest friend I have will always remind me of the best of myself by inspiring me to see myself through her eyes instead of mine. Inspiring someone else is the greatest good we can give to our friends or to ourselves.

A Pure Mind

The mind is purified through meditation and dispassion, by being nonreactive to changes and nonattached to outcomes. With a pure mind, love can prevail.

Something Greater than Ourselves

Faith in something greater than ourselves enables us to do what we have said we'll do, to press forward when we are tired or hurt or afraid, to keep going when the challenge seems overwhelming and the course is entirely uncertain.
