Compare Yourself with the Old You

Image
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...

Developing Positive Thinking

All our feelings, beliefs and knowledge are based on our internal thoughts, both conscious and subconscious. We are in control, whether we know it or not. We can be positive or negative, enthusiastic or dull, active or passive. The biggest difference between people is their attitudes. Our present attitudes are habits, built from the feedback of parents, friends, society and self, that from our self-image and our world-image. These attitudes are maintained by the inner conversations we constantly have with ourselves, both consciously and subconsciously. Attitude and thoughts do not change overnight. Even if the idea seems strange give it a try, as you have nothing to lose, but only to gain. Ignore what others might say or think about you, if they discover that you are changing the way you think. The first step in developing positive thinking is to change our inner conversations. - What should we be saying? One approach is called the three C's: Commitment, Control and Challe...

One-Man Power

Every successful concern is the result of a One-Man Power. Cooperation, technically, is an iridescent dream—things cooperate because the man makes them. He cements them by his will. But find this Man, and get his confidence, and his weary eyes will look into yours and the cry of his heart shall echo in your ears. "O, for some one to help me bear this burden!" Then he will tell you of his endless search for Ability, and of his continual disappointments and thwarting in trying to get some one to help himself by helping him. Ability is the one crying need of the hour. The banks are bulging with money, and everywhere are men looking for work. The harvest is ripe. But the Ability to captain the unemployed and utilise the capital, is lacking—sadly lacking. In every city there are many five- and ten-thousand-dollar-a-year positions to be filled, but the only applicants are men who want jobs at fifteen dollars a week. Your man of Ability has a place already. Yes, Ability is a ...

Symptoms of the fear of criticism

This fear is almost as universal as the fear of poverty, and its effects are just as fatal to personal achievement, mainly because this fear destroys initiative, and discourages the use of imagination. The major symptoms of the fear are: Self-consciousness - Generally expressed through nervousness, timidity in conversation and in meeting strangers, awkward movement of the hands and limbs, shifting of the eyes. Lack of poise - Expressed through lack of voice control, nervousness in the presence of others, poor posture of body, poor memory. Personality - Lacking in firmness of decision, personal charm, and ability to express opinions definitely. The habit of side-stepping issues instead of meeting them squarely. Agreeing with others without careful examination of other opinions. Inferiority complex - The habit of expressing self approval by word of mouth and by actions, as means of covering up a feeling of inferiority. Using "big words" to impress others, (often wi...

Magnetic Relaxation

Unlike sleeping, magnetic relaxation requires you to be physically at rest but subconsciously alert. When your conscious mind is relaxed; the positive suggestions seep into your subconscious. To achieve maximum benefit from relaxation: Sit in a comfortable chair or lie down to a bed. - Let go of all the tensions by repeating to yourself: "I can now relax comfortably. I can now relax my body. I can now relax my mind. Easily, quickly and positively. Now I can enjoy the state of alert relaxation peacefully." - Let a feeling of soothing comfort take over. - Let go of yourself totally. Feel a universal healing energy surrounding you and getting absorbed into your body and mind. - Feel a cool breeze around your body. Visualise a white sparkling light through your head down your body and seeping deep within you. - Think that soothing and healing forces are vibrating within and radiating from you. - Maintain a positive and peaceful state of mind during the session. Also, ta...

I Know You Can Do It

I know it's not easy to get what you want. For everything we have to work hard. We need to make sure we are always giving our best. There are times, when we break down. We don't know what's right and wrong. We are just confused with everything. We just feel like there is nothing left. Everything just vanished off. We want to make everything fine but it's becoming impossible to do so. We need that one support from someone special to say us "You can do it". We need to hear from someone special that "I'm here for you". We just need some love and care. I'm here... I'm here for you. You can do it. I know it's hard.  But it's worth it. Just keep yourself strong and stay focused for what you want.  Everything will fall in it's place then. Just don't stress. Stay calm and see the progress, Because I know you can do it.
