Understand Behaviour & Take Steps Towards Positivity !!

To be cool is to work to build relationships. 

It is easy to speak negatively when we do not like something about someone. We first react to them in our mind and so tend to get angry. Our words and behaviour would then naturally be negative and insulting too. This further widens the gap and breaks the relationship. When someone does something undesired, we first need to try and understand his behaviour. Every person has a reason to behave the way he does. If we can’t understand at that time, we at least need to give it time. The more we react to the other person and his behaviour, the greater the distance that is created. So we need to begin the first step of positivity by recognizing some positivity in him.

When we're working in a team, we need to make sure that we inform all the details to everyone involved in the task.


The task is easy to accomplish when those involved 
feel part of the team. So, make sure you communicate clearly, simply and openly.


This will naturally create a flow of contributions and 
enable the team to give their best to the task.


~   Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu

Stay Calm, Give Yourself Some Time !!

Some circumstances are just beyond your control. Often, all you can do is accept this fact, hang in there, stay calm and do your best.

Try to curb your expectations and be understanding of yourself and others. Everything else will work out in its own time.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu.

Bring Positive Change in Others !!

You can bring transformation in others when you have faith in them. 

When you blame others for their weakness they will not able to change themselves. Instead when you have faith in others, it enables them to have faith in themselves too. This will give them the courage to work on themselves and change their negativity into positivity. Think of one person whom you want a change in. Tell yourself again and again that you believe that he will change. Also whenever you interact with this person let it be with only with the positive in him. 

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu.

Faith Gives You Confidence & Gives You Hapiness !!

Happiness stays in the life of the one who has faith in the self. 

When there is faith, there is obvious happiness visible in thought, word and action. Whatever the obstacles come by, faith in the self brings the confidence to face all obstacles very easily and happily. Whatever the task you take up remind yourself again and again that you are going to succeed in it. This gives you the faith to go on with happiness in spite of seeming difficulties. 

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu.

Learn To Tolerate & See The Improvement !!

Those with the power of tolerance will be content and will make others content too. 

When you tolerate, you will find yourself improving. This will make you feel satisfied with yourself and you will become a support for others too. This will make them content with themselves and with you too. Each day make it a point to learn at least one thing from all the suggestions that you get throughout the day. When you keep this in mind you will be able to tolerate even negative comments very easily and you will find yourself improving. 

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu.

Communicate With Your Inner Peace !!

Peace is like glue that puts back together all the broken pieces that make us peaceless. 

So, every now and then (maybe as you eat or drink)  become quiet and reconnect with your inner peace and put  all the pieces of your inner world back together to make peace. 

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu.

Its Only Now.... Later Never Happens !!

Procrastination kills; 

it kills the idea, the motivation and the will and we lose the power of the moment.

To stay creative and to stay motivated, act now! 

If we leave it for later, it may never happen. 

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu.

Give Some Time To Your Mind ... Let It Relax !!

We're always commenting in our minds, 

even when it's nothing to do with us. 

All this unnecessary chatter creates clutter & 

takes our mind away from being present and calm. 

So, here's a challenge for you: 

whilst aware of your surroundings, 

the sounds, 

other people's behaviours, 

your thoughts & 

emotions; 

quietly observe, without making a comment in your mind; 

zip up your mind; & let the mind - just be. 

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu.

Take a Break & Use the Time to Get Creative .. !!

Slow down the train of your thoughts and become mindful of the 'gap', 

the spaces in between your thoughts.

Take moments through the day to enjoy the 'still spaces' in your mind. 

Use these 'gaps' as creative spaces, from which innovative thoughts arise. 

~   Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu

See Problems As Opportunities to Grow !!

Problems have within them the very real potential to make us stronger, as unshakeable as a mountain. 

How? 

They're an opportunity to draw on your inner strength and continue. It gives you the steadiness to succeed and the wisdom to slip past the problems undisturbed. 

~   Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu

Get Yourself into the Early Years & Refresh !

Regularly make time to de-tech. 

Switch off the phone, laptop, TV. 

Unplug from all the electronic and digital technology. 

Now breathe and relax. 

Tune into your inner space and experience inner peace. 

Enjoy solitude and refresh your energy.

Powers That Recharge The Soul - Part 2

The Power to Discriminate

Like  the trained eye of a jeweller who discriminates the real from the  imitation, I can discriminate what is true and what is false.

The Power to Face

Nothing seems like an obstacle, but rather a stepping stone to victory. To lack this power means to be dominated by external dramas.

The Power to Cooperate

I do not feel like I am competing against anyone, but rather I am helping all. Here, the surrender of ego is needed.

The Power to Withdraw

I can withdraw from the organs of the body, and become the seed; detached, and the observer of this drama of life. Contentment comes.

These are powers that recharge the soul. As the soul comes into action, it experiences the practical form of these powers.

Irritation and annoyance disappear, and nothing disturbs my light frame of mind. The fragrance of this power is attractive to all.

The Power to Accommodate

Like the ocean that merges all that flows into it, I merge all that happens; so past is past, and the future seems clear and bright.

The Power of Judgement

I can accurately assess any situation with clarity and confidence

Be Pure & Happy to Enjoy The Benefits !!

My heart is full and open. 

Flowing with pure good feelings and good wishes for everyone. 

I follow my spontaneous instinct to give and I am totally happy. 

There is a part of you that is perfect and pure. 

It is untouched by the less-than-perfect characteristics 

you have acquired by living in a less than perfect world. 

This part of you is a still and eternal star. 

Make time to reach it and this will bring you untold benefit. 

~   Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu 

Enhance Your Beliefs & See The Change !!

Each belief we hold carries a magnetic field that draws a similar energy towards us. 

The more conviction we have that a belief is true, the more powerful its magnetic pull.

If we believe we are lucky, we attract good fortune. 

Our worst fears & greatest hopes magnetically attract those experiences to us. 

Today, let's challenge the beliefs we hold about ourselves. 

~  Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu

Love Self & You Will Automatically Love Others !

You're the most important person in your life, 

So fall in love with yourself! How? 

By appreciating the best in you - your qualities, your inner beauty.

If you don't love you how do you expect others to love you? 

And when you love yourself, 

you're able to love others unconditionally. 

~   Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu

Erase the Need to Please Others.... !!

Erase the Need to Please Others. 

Are you a people pleaser in the workplace? If you are, you might be taking on more work than you should. You might also find yourself avoiding the hard conversations because you don't want to rock the boat. Imagine how different you'll be in the workplace, if you were to stop being a people pleaser?

Instead of expecting others to be the source of your self worth; take responsibility for how you feel, understand how you work best and recognise the value you bring to your work situation.  

~   Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu.

Keep Giving..... It Can Be Precious At Times ... !!!

Compared to the ocean, a single raindrop seems insignificant, ridiculously small and inconsequential. 

But in the thirsty desert, a single raindrop is precious, life-giving and vitally important. Is your world an ocean of peace or a desert? 

Even though you are only a single drop, every drop counts. To give something when and where it is needed is what really counts. 

~   Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu

Inner Peace - Use It in Difficult Situations !

Peace is found within but not outside. 

We are peaceful beings but external situations pull us away from our peace if we let them. When there is not a very positive situation that we are confronted with, we need to save ourselves from the pull of the outside situation and rely on the peace within. Every morning practice being a peaceful being who is totally in charge of yourself. When you make this practice firm when difficult situations do come you will be able to rely more on your internal peace instead of getting carried away by the external situations.
