Apathy is Not Good For You!

Don’t get into the trap…of Apathy!

Move from Apathy to Expectation!

“I don’t care!”

“Why should I bother?”

“Life sucks!”

The above statements are full of apathy…don’t get into this trap.

It may begin with sounding very cool to you but with gradual letting go of your involvement, soon you will reduce yourself to an inorganic state and by the time you realize this…life itself will go by!

Apathy is the slow poisoning of success or growth or progress. Prolonged apathy becomes an attitude which is destructive in nature.

Symptoms of apathy: lack of ambition, willingness to maintain the status-quo even when it is making you unhappy, acceptance of whatever life is offering you without making any effort to make a change, mental and physical laziness; lack of initiative, imagination, enthusiasm and self-control, and lastly the victim behavior to let others pull your strings!

How can one make the transition then?

Moving from the state of apathy to expectation would require courage!

Willingness to confront fear is courage. It means facing the criticism boldly, relying on yourself, being willing to accept and learn from the consequences of all your choices. It means believing enough in yourself and in living your life as you choose….it means daring, taking risks and pulling your own strings!

Look forward. Expect good. Expect big things to happen.

Life itself means motion. Keep moving!

Life is too short. Leave no stone unturned to achieve what you want.

Cheers!

Do Troubles Worry You?

Looking for troubles?

Do your troubles have positive values?

Yes…No…Maybe!

I believe our troubles do have a positive value.

They act as a stimulus and ignite productive thinking and positive action. They are educative and introduces us to the real world. In fact, troubles introduce a man to himself! They result in series of reactions which produces a cheerful glow of spirit. They act as tonic for the mind!

The success or failure in realizing an aim or objective is purely determined by one’s faith or lack of it. It’s the faith that acts as fuel and provide guts to achieve the goal. In the battlefield of life, you need to have loads of it…FAITH! It helps you to keep going when the going gets tough and is the great secret of never getting defeated during the multifold changes happening in the game called LIFE.

An action oriented positive attitude along with a faith that is rock solid makes all the difference- between success and failure!

Remember, your troubles are like teachers who will never stop teaching, so it’s better for you to never stop learning.

Cheers!!

Do You Remember Your Pledge?

Forgot my Pledge!

What is your pledge?

My younger one asked his mom.

“I’ll not get angry, instead I’ll spread happiness.” She replied.

And what is your pledge?

I asked my little one.

“I’ll not make mamma angry and I’ll help her.” He replied.

What is your pledge?

My little one asked me.

“I’ll make you (my son), mamma (my wife) and tamma (his grandmother) happy.” I replied.

I have given these pledges to my wife and son and to myself. So, whenever anyone is off the track, the others immediately remind by asking “what is your pledge?”

We keep each other reminding this and the results are excellent!

These are nothing but Positive Affirmations. If we keep reminding ourself something positive throughout the day, we are bound to get good results.

Remember, in school we were told to say it loudly – I can do it! I’ll do it! I am the winner!

I am not sure if there is any science behind it, but it actually works.

Try yourself!
