Little Deep Thoughts

There are times when we start comparing ourselves with others. Comparing ourselves with others brings us disappointments and break downs. We feel we aren't good enough for ourselves. We feel ugly, humiliated and what not. Why do we have to always compare ourselves with others? Why don't we Compare Ourselves with the Old Us?  Have you ever thought about comparing yourself with the old you? It's okay, at times we do face disappointments and break down. At times, we don't get what we want. Things might not always go the way we want. But it's okay and you need to know that.  We need to learn to compare ourselves with the old us. You need to see your own progress with the old you. You need to be a New You from the Old You. Don't think about what others are doing because they are growing for themselves. You need to grow for yourself and learn to check your own steps from the old you. It's fine even if it is the smallest change, but there is a chan...

To basketball coach John Wooden, making each day your masterpiece was not just about selfish personal achievement. In his autobiography, They Call Me Coach , he mentions an element vital to creating each day. "You cannot live a perfect day," he said, "without doing something for someone who will never be able to repay you." I agree with that. But there's a way to make sure you can't be repaid-and that's doing something for someone who won't even know who did it. This gets into a theory I've had all my life, that you can create luck in your life. Not from the idea that luck is needed for success, because it isn't. But from the idea that luck can be a welcome addition to your life. You can create luck for yourself by creating it for someone else. If you know about someone who is hurting financially, you arrange for a few hundred dollars to arrive at their home, and they don't even know who you are, then you've made them lucky. By m...

So, why do I claim we have no willpower? Is it a misguided desire to protect myself? Is there a secret payoff in saying I have no willpower? Maybe if I absolutely deny the existence of willpower, I am no longer responsible for developing it. It’s out of my life! What a relief! But, here’s the final tragedy: The development and use of willpower is the most direct access to happiness and motivation that I’ll ever have. In short, by denying its existence, I’m shutting my spirit down. Many people think of willpower and self-discipline as something akin to self-punishment. By giving it that negative connotation, they never get enthused about developing it. But author William Bennett gives us a different way to think of it. Self-discipline, he notes in The Book Of Virtues , comes from the word disciple. When you are self-disciplined, you have simply decided-in matters of the will-to become your own disciple. Once you make that decision, your life’s adventure gets more interesting. ...

You may be a positive thinker, yet your thinking could, in fact, be mediocre. Do you think you’re quite good at your job? Are you a pretty good family person, friend, or athlete? Is your thinking rarely unusual? Do you feel comfortable being one of the crowd? Nothing average ever stood as a monument to progress. When progress is looking for a partner it doesn't turn to those who believe that they are only average. It turns instead to those who are forever searching and striving to become the best they possibly can. If we seek the average level, we cannot hope to achieve a higher level of success. The only hope is to avoid being a failure. Here is a typical example of such a mediocre thinker: Asha, a good-hearted woman, owns a modest home, drives an ordinary car, and lives a reasonably comfortable life. She doesn't aspire to the best things in life because she doesn't believe she could ever have them. Although she has some worthwhile goals, she is not excited about achie...

Three things happen when a person is in difficulties: - Firstly, he becomes depressed and loses focus. - Secondly, he becomes insecure and less confident. - Thirdly, he becomes dejected and cynical and develops a negative attitude towards the system that he believes gave him all the trouble. These three most unfortunate developments in his personality reduce his overall effectiveness and efficiency to recognise the many opportunities that he would have otherwise noticed and utilised successfully. Of these the first one takes away his sensitivity to identify the opportunities that come his way. The second and the third mental conditions prevent him from seizing the opportunities even though he clearly perceives them. In other words when a person is passing through adversity, he loses many opportunities to redeem himself from the adverse situation, where as what is required is to remain focused so that when the opportunities present themselves he becomes aware of them and seizes th...

You deserve to move on. You deserve to let go and uncork yourself from the past. You deserve to step forward into new possibilities and opportunities. You deserve to be happy. You deserve closure. You deserve to be with someone who fights for you and never thinks about giving up on you. You deserve someone who believes in you. You deserve someone who patronize you. You deserve someone who shows up. You deserve someone who chooses you, everyday and every time. You deserve someone who makes your heart dance and sets your soul free. You deserve someone who pieces you back together. You deserve peace, within yourself. You deserve to have all the things your heart beats for. You deserve to be loved. You deserve everything. It's time to believe that.
