Have a Big Heart

To have a big heart means never to be disheartened. To have a big heart means to have good wishes constantly for others and to enable others to move forward through this. Even if someone with negative characteristics comes in front, there are no feelings of negativity as there is the power to accept and recognize their specialties. We are able to be beyond confusion and doubt when we have a big heart. We are never caught up with the problems but are very easily able to find a way out. We are able to very effectively and smoothly come out of any negative situation.

Faith Gives the Ability to Go On in Life

To have faith that things will work out for the best means to ensure that they will. To have faith that things will work out for the best means never to give up. Even if situations don't support and people don't give encouragement faith gives the ability to go on. Because of this there is recognition of even the not so visible resources and they are used for successfully completing the task. When we have faith, we are never discouraged by temporary failure, but are able to have the courage to move on towards success. We have constantly the satisfaction of having given our best. Because of our commitment and sincere effort, we find that situations and people too cooperate with us, bringing us success in whatever we undertake.

The Power of Good Wishes

The power of good wishes enables disheartened ones to experience happiness. The usual reaction to the negativity in another person is to behave negatively too, i.e., to express negative qualities. This continues although this does not bring about the desired change in the other person. On the other hand, when there is the ability to see the positive qualities in the other person and have good wishes based on that it becomes a source of power to bring about a change to positivity. When we have the ability to give positive feelings and good wishes to the other person even when they are negative, they are able to get the power to change the negative to positive. We find that the change that we seek for in others is much more quicker and easier than if there is the emphasis just on negativity.

Love and Cooperation Bring Success in All Tasks

Love and cooperation bring success in all tasks. Love is reflected in the love that there is for the person and also for the task. When there is love for the person, there is the ability to give cooperation without any expectations or demands. And when there is love for the task there is the commitment for completing the task, whatever the obstacles that come up in the process of doing things. When we are able to have love, we are able to receive hundred percent help and commitment from others too and we are able to have the satisfaction of moving forward constantly. There is nothing difficult for us and we do everything with great ease. Not only is the task easy but also there is a spread of happiness and joy experienced by all who are involved in the task.

Learn The Real Meaning of Master

To be a master means to use the right power at the right time. To be a master means to be aware of the internal qualities that one has. Also it is the ability to use these qualities as and when required. That means to be able to give an order and put into use, in a second, whatever internal power or virtue that is required at that time. If there is an awareness of the positive quality, and not the ability to put it into use within a second, it would not be called total mastery. When we are a master, we are able to have an experience of having control over whatever is happening around us. Even if something comes up suddenly, we still are able to feel the control over the situation and make the best out of it. We neither feel helpless nor blame others for what is happening.

Real Contentment Gives Happiness to All

Real contentment spreads happiness to others too. When one feels contentment but the others are not able to perceive that contentment, it means that it is not true contentment. Real contentment is visible in such a way that others too are able to feel the happiness that is created. When there is real contentment, all thoughts, words and actions are filled with quality. Others are able to take benefit from one’s state. Even in the most hopeless state, we find that we become a source of support for those around. We are able to give hope to the hopeless and help them get back to a state of happiness.

Be Optimistic to Spread Rays of Happiness

To spread the rays of happiness is to be optimistic. The one who is optimistic is able to spread the rays of happiness all around. Never does he stop or move back with life's challenges. On the other hand, he has the courage and determination to move on making the best out of the situation. Others too are encouraged seeing his faith. When he is optimistic he understands that there is something good that is hidden in everything that happens. He is able to enjoy seeing only this positive aspect, filling himself with positivity and the happiness spreads around and touches the lives of those around.

Easy Nature Makes Tasks Easy

Easy nature makes tasks easy. The ones with an easy nature constantly think of solutions instead of problems. So such individuals are free from the burden of problems and are constantly contributing to make things easy for themselves and others too. The right environment to bring out the best result is naturally created by them. When we have an easy nature, we are able to put a full stop in a second with great ease. We are not caught with the waste questions and exclamations. We are able to enjoy everything that comes our way and move forward constantly with lightness.

Thoughts are Seeds of Our Destiny

When you sow a thought you reap an action, when you sow an action you reap a habit, when you sow a habit you reap a character and when you sow a character you reap a destiny. Thoughts are like seeds. You cannot sow the seed of one plant and get another: thistles will never produce daffodils! When your thoughts are positive, powerful and constructive, your life will reflect this.

Faith Draws Out Best in Every Situation

Faith is the key to the best use of one's fortune. For the one who has faith, in the self and in things, there is only positivity. Under all circumstances, there are only opportunities and treasures seen. Each moment is an inner urge to discover these hidden treasures and make the best use of them. So the one who has faith draws out the best from each and every situation. When we are able to move forward with faith, we are encouraged to give our best under all circumstances and are able to enjoy the best fruit of the effort that we put in. Faith gives us the courage to go on even during difficult times and so we have the satisfaction of bringing about constant change and progress in our life.

Perform Positive Actions and Earn Good Wishes

It is on the basis of actions that praise is received. The one who only talks but is not able to put his talk into practice does not become worthy of praise. On the other hand, the one who is able to bring his good thoughts and words into action becomes worthy of praise. Such a person's actions become inspirational for others and encourage them to follow him. When we are able to act according to our thoughts and words, we are able to take inspiration to do more. For every positive action that we do, we experience support and good wishes from others which encourage us constantly. Our account of positivity is always full and it takes me further to a cycle of positivity making it a habit. So we find that we don't have to work hard for performing positive actions.

Power of Our Positive Feelings

With benevolent feelings and good wishes we can free people from worrying. When we come across people who are faced with a difficult situation because of which they are worrying, we too usually tend to think about it. Instead of helping the other person to be free from worrying, we too begin to worry. This doesn't help either of us in anyway but only adds to the negativity of the situation. We need to develop such benevolent feelings for the ones who are going through the situation that the power of our positive feelings will spread to them too. It will act like the light of the lamp, which helps to dispel the darkness around. Only when there is positivity in the mind will they be able to think of some solution.

Plant Seeds of Peace to Lead a Peaceful Life

Ignorance makes us believe that life functions haphazardly. Wisdom teaches you that everything that happens in this theater of life has profound significance. What we see today is not the fruit of chance but a fruit from seeds planted in the past. Plant seeds of peace now and you will create a life of peace in the future.

The One Who Is Humble Is Always Successful

The one who is humble is always successful. The one who is humble is free from desires and is in a state of appreciation and contentment of what he has. So he does not want to prove to himself that he is successful. He only enjoys the process of learning and progressing. He is never deterred by criticism and takes it in the right spirit. Humility enables him to appreciate the effort put in by those around him. He would naturally be able to see the specialities in others and respect them for it. There would be no feeling of envy. He would naturally be able to have the quality of contributing for the progress of others too.

Be Happy Dont Worry and You Will Be Surprised

Leave worries aside and you will be surprised by the beauty of the sky and the colour of flowers, of the freshness of the breeze and the generosity of the sun. You will feel you are part of creation, and life will start to make sense. The greatest wealth is to appreciate what we have and what we are.

Experience Makes Us Perfect

To be experienced means not to be deceived by anything. There are so many times when a situation takes us by surprise and we make the same mistake that we had made before. It is only when the situation has passed that we realise that we have actually repeated that mistake. What then remains is only repentance as the time has passed where we could have done something. Whenever there is a mistake, we need to take care that we learn from whatever has happened. When we continue to move forward in this way there will be no repentance for the mistakes made but there will be learning that'll make us experienced. And when we are experienced we'll never be deceived by situations which make us commit mistakes.

Learn How to Remain Content Under All Circumstances

The one who is aware of the attainments is the one who is content. Sometimes, there is a tendency to compare ourselves with others and find ourselves lacking in some way. This creates unhappiness in us and we are not able to remain content. Comparing ourselves with others or having expectations makes us miss out on perceiving the attainments we have in our life. And we are not able to experience contentment. Instead of looking at what we don't have, which is usually the practice, we need to make effort to see what we have attained or what we are attaining. Once we make this practice, we will be able to look at the positive aspect in our life, which will enable us to remain content under all circumstances, i.e., in both positive and negative situations.

Internal Stability Is Very Important !

Negative situations can be transformed into positive with the power of stability. When faced with a negative situation, usually the mind gets affected. Lot of questions arise in the mind that don't allow us to be stable at that time. Because of the thoughts in our mind, though it is in our hands to work at transforming the situation, we don't make use of this opportunity but only end up adding to the negativity. In a negative situation, it is necessary for us to maintain our own inner stability. We need to free ourselves from wasteful thoughts. Then, the negativity in the situation will finish, first in our mind and then in the situation itself. Our own internal stability will help in finishing the influence of the external situation.

Wait For The Right Opportunity !

Where there is honesty there is flexibility. When someone challenges the truth of what we are saying we generally tend to argue and prove our point in order to prove ourselves right. When we argue in this way, it only shows our own stubbornness and doesn't help in anyway to reveal the truth. Where silence doesn't help in revealing the truth, argument never will because the other person is not in a position to listen to us at that moment. We need to realise the fact that when the other person is not able to recognise the truth, our arguing will not help in any way. When the truth is with us we need not argue but we only need to wait for the right opportunity to talk what we have to say. When we try to talk when the other person is not in a position to listen to us, it only reveals our lack of flexibility.

Become A Humble Server !

The one who has the spirit of service is free from wasteful thinking. It is usually thought of as an additional burden to think of serving others. The usual thought is to think of first serving oneself and when one is content to think of serving others. But this thought makes one miss out on the fact that both service to oneself and service to others are complementary to each other, one helping the other in a positive way. When we take on the responsibility of bringing benefit to others, i.e., when we consider ourselves as a humble server we will be free from wasteful and negative thinking. We will not waste our thoughts and energy on something that is not worthwhile, something that is not going to bring benefit to anyone. So each thought, word and action of ours becomes elevated.
