Don’t Complain Find Solutions

If you accept the things the way they are- your health, job, life, freedom, relationships, partners…it simply implies that you have CHOSEN these yourself. So, be happy! If not, then CHANGE it! Why just complain?

We are in the habit of cribbing and complaining all the time! Rather, our time and energy should be utilized in finding means and ways to make our Life better.

Remember, only the Weak complains all the time for all their inabilities…the Strong ones just works on the solutions!

ACTIONS

Don’t let the circumstances around you drive your thoughts and actions. Let your thoughts and actions drive (create) the circumstances.

The people who get on in life are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want and if they can’t find, they make them!

Doing Your Thing

Many times the Fear of what people will Say or Think stops us from doing or creating many Wonderful things. If you believe in your thought and have Confidence in yourself…then just do it!

Always remember, people will create doubt and fear in your mind for anything and everything that you intend to do which is not routine. If you have the Conviction then just go ahead and do it!.

Cheers!

PERSEVERANCE

Stamina is very important both in sports and in life. When life repeatedly knocks you with its punches, your stamina will help you to sustain the pain and continue your fight. And at the right time, you hit back with a mighty punch, topping it with another one and win with a knockout!

Just remember, perseverance is your stamina in life. Ensure you have it in abundance!

Trust

They say SILENCE speaks a thousand words. True. When there is trust, even your silence is understood. And when there is no trust, every single word you speak is misunderstood.

Building and creating Trust in others is very important in life!

Simple Actions > Big Changes

When nothing is working for you- either at home or at work,

When you see no hope from anywhere,

When the mind feels so heavy with despair,

Just say these three lines in your heart;

Only I can change my life

I have to change my life

I’ll change my life.

Repeat these lines again and again.

Take the simplest of the actions to make one simple change. Keep taking these small actions and you will see over a period of time Your Life has Changed!

Wish I Could Have Known It Earlier in Life…

The following are the life facts that I realized very late in my life and wish I could have known them earlier in my life:-

Never stop learning:- Once you have completed your formal education and got into your first job, most of us say goodbye to education. This is not correct. The education should continue side by side till your last day of life! Keep updating yourself. Learn something new always.

Be more Granular:- Avoid superficiality. Get into the specifics and into more details. This implies every aspect of your life, especially to your work/expertise. Remember, the more knowledgeable you are the more valuable you become to others. Your objective should be to achieve the ultimate mastery in your craft!

Keep the time frame of your life in mind:- We have limited time in our life but we all live as if we would be living till eternity! So, ensure you achieve your goals in a proper time frame. If you are not happy in your life then find out the reasons and fix the problem then and there. Don’t just wait that a miracle would happen some fine day and then you will achieve happiness. Time is precious so use it wisely! Also, learn not to regret. What has gone , let it go! You will have another day, another opportunity and another partner! Why sulk then?

Nurture your relationships:- This is very important. Often when young we give a damn to this. But we need people all the time – both in our personal lives and in our professional life. And every relationship needs time and effort. Be genuine when dealing with others. People understand what is fake and what is REAL. Also, be careful about your reputation especially if you want to climb the corporate ladder at a faster pace. Keep in mind- your reputation reaches faster than you!

Taking care of your Parents in real sense:- They have less time. Do whatever you ever wanted to do for them. Do it now. Don’t wait for a suitable time. They will seldom ask for what they want. You have to understand them and provide it to them.

Be mindful of what and how you speak:- Words are very powerful- both spoken and written. Ensure you use them wisely while interacting with others. At least be mindful that you don’t hurt people knowingly or intentionally. You don’t have to be diplomatic all the time but when criticizing some one , take care that your criticism is in the right spirit and not an insult or abuse to the other person.
