Battering at life from the outside, trying to change only what is visible, is inverted determination. When the quality of mind - peace, happiness, depth, purity - can remain still and uninterrupted by the bumps of life, that is true determination.

Have A Positive Approach Towards Life!
When we are faced with pressures, deadlines and troubles we must resist the urge to worry and flit from one thing to another, or to get irritated or blame others, which would just drain our energy. Instead we should try to create a loving attitude towards ourselves and our situation as this will energize our spirit. A kind compassionate approach to life helps the mind to stay clear and focused and takes it to a higher level of spiritual intelligence.

Self-respect Is Important!
Self-respect is not a matter of what you are doing in your life, but rather of how you are doing it. It requires that you bring quality and virtue into each action, whatever that action may be.

Embrace The Changes In Your Life!
The journey of life is one full of changes. Life means change, movement and growth. When the storms of change and inconstancy are swirling all around us we need an inner eye of stillness and stability. This will give the inner strength to cope with the new and different situations that come to us and provide a platform of clear decision-making and powerful thoughts. Anchored in the eternal and unchanging truths of spirituality, we need not resist change but can embrace it.

It is our most fundamental nature.

Judge Yourself First !
Judge whether your thoughts, words and actions are beneficial to the scene in which you find yourself. Focusing on your own part is more useful than passing judgment on others.

Manifest your Qualities !
Sometimes you must burrow to find the good qualities in your nature that have gone underground and then coax them to the surface. Stopping for a moment and being silent can bring the steadiness you need for this task.
