It Is Important To Be Humble For A Positive Growth !

Humility grows a little more each time we step away from our own feelings and opinions and genuinely listen to the experience of another human being. Humility is dedication to the extent that no acknowledgement is sought for the self. Only when we have learned to value others no more no less that we value ourselves can we be said to be truly humble.

Be Honest And Accept Responsibility In Life!

It takes great courage to be honest. One of the noblest qualities in a person is the ability to say, "I am sorry, I was wrong, you were right". It doesn't really matter about being right, winning arguments or having our ideas accepted. It matters more that we are able to recognize our mistakes, take responsibility for them, learn the lesson and move on with greater maturity.

Real Freedom Is The Essence Of One’s Being !

Freedom is a state of mind. Understanding the self is the key to freedom. The more one understands the self, the easier it is to be liberated from the chains of waste and negativity. Freedom is to be uninfluenced and unaffected, to be at peace with the self. Real freedom is to experience the true essence of one's being.

A Great And Humble Quote !

It is common for great people to have faced ostracism and rejection, through which their greatness has emerged. Great talent needs to have the ego knocked out of it to be of real use to humanity. A wilderness experience can be humbling, immensely strengthening and making of us. When we have no other support to turn to we are more easily able to recognize the source of true greatness and the need to reconnect with the Divine.

A Caring Positive Message !

When we have learned to love and accept ourselves, we no longer compete with others but enjoy encouraging them to reach for their dreams, we can genuinely celebrate their success and enjoy seeing them go ahead.

Enthusiasm In Life Leads Us On A Positive Path !!!

Without enthusiasm life becomes a dry and tasteless experience. Anyone can become enthusiastic for a little while but to keep enthusiasm steadily flowing through our life is a great art. The secret is remarkably simple; live in a state of appreciation; appreciate the special qualities within everyone; appreciate the wonder of nature and give thanks to the cycle of life and everyone's contribution to it. Enthusiasm is infectious, especially when it is based on an appreciation of, and love for life itself.
