Frustrations are not always harmful

As we all are humans and being human we get frustrated sometimes by one reason or the other or by a collection of reasons. Frustrations get us down or make us angry and set us stuck in deep thinking. Thoughts that come into our head in frustration often lead us to nowhere because we are angry, irritated or disturbed.

Instead of letting our frustrations get us down to undesirable feelings, we should put them to work for us. Frustrations often lead us to nowhere because we lose our focus on thin...

Appreciate things that are fresh

Sometimes, we feel stuck and unable to move forward. No matter what we do and how hard we try to take steps forward but fail. This is the time when we are fighting against our own self.

It is undoubtedly honest and true to you to feel stuck somehow and there is no enjoyment in that. Getting stuck increases the stress, worry and sometimes fears.

People who have strong imaginations, who enjoy being there in their imaginations, get also stuck within their creations. It is not always healthy to ima...

Enjoy life to the fullest

Instead of looking for to judge, we should look for things to enjoy. If we decide to focus on beauty that exists in every moment, in every place, we will become better individuals, less afraid of this world, and be loved by other people.

The choice is ours. If we build our attitude and put efforts in a positive way to enjoy our experience of life on this moment following throughout the day, we will significantly improve our life and those close to us.

One must try and fail

Fear of facing hardships makes us weaker. Whereas we want to be strong and secure. We should never be afraid of the obstacles for they come our way to teach us big lessons and to build our path more secure but it only happens when we overcome them.

Most people get disappointed and dishearted because they think that they are not capable to overcome them. They are afraid of losing something before they begin the battle. Fear of losing before the beginning is a failure without trial. One must try...

Progress a little in many areas

Everything can be done in one way or the other. We do several things that we love to do and sometimes we do things again because we did not like the way we did last time. This leads us to do it better than before and by doing that we reach excellence.

People who try doing things in order to achieve perfection do not realize that why do they need to things again and again. They just want them to be perfect which often comes out with unhealthy results.

When people try to improve doing things in o...

Success might mean wealth

Success might mean wealth. To others, it is recognition, good health, good family, happiness, satisfaction, and peace of mind.

Some people talk too much and they feel satisfied being completely spoken. If it is for the good of others, it is definitely a noble act but if they speak much only to feel fulfilled then it is by no mean a good thing.

Speakers, who work hard for their speeches before they deliver, often target others to learn something meaningful from their speech.

Speakers who speak ra...

Consigning dreams

Nothing could be further from the truth. The truth is that we all dream and it is fun to have dreams. It gives us push to move forward in life.

Consigning our dreams to tomorrow or the days after means that we tell our self that we cannot have them. We should not just dream about doing something on a particular day. We must put real life into our dreams.

We shall be happy when we work in the now to make our dreams true.

Don’t get upset with the fault finders

If we acquire a negative attitude during our formative years; it does not mean that we are stuck with it. We can change it. What we need to know to change a negative attitude is to become aware of the principles that build a positive attitude. When we know it, we can become a positive person.

Negative attitude often is a result of negative company. The company that we usually spend our time with, either good or bad, have an impact on our personality. When we acquire a negative attitude, we see...

Unless we get involved

The best way to spend our time and energy is in creating something meaningful. We often get free time and we think about different activities such as gaming, movies, etc. Sometimes we find it difficult to spend quality time.

Just because we find it difficult; we should not avoid it. Just because it’s challenging, doesn’t mean it’s undesirable.

What we need to do is to manage our time properly. This is the most important thing in accomplishing anything meaningful.

Life is difficult indeed but we...

Search for the hidden treasures

Many times we confuse intelligence with good judgment. A person tells us a solution to one of our problems due to his intelligence. He listens to our problem; he thinks about it and tells us the solution. We do not realize his intelligence instead calling it a good judgment.

Sometimes, we get an answer from an unknown person. He does not know who we are or which situation we are in, but he tells us “you could reach to the solution if you take these steps”. We call it intelligent instead of a g...
