Repeat the name of Almighty God with intense bhakti. Pray to Him like a guileless child. Open your * hearts* troubles to the God. He alone is the one physician for all the ills of life. He will instill in you spiritual strength and peace. Being happy or sad, gloomy or excited, moody, or stable are options that are presented to you every morning. You just have to make the right choice. Discipline is essential for the success of every endeavour of man/woman, whatever the field, whether it be economic, social, educational, or merely material and worldly. It is even more essential for success in spiritual effort. Live each moment completely and the future will take care of itself. Fully enjoy the wonder & beauty of each moment. A meaningful life is not about being rich, being popular, being highly educated or being perfect, it is about being real, being humble, being strong and being able to share ourselves and touch the lives of others. Most of us have been through phases in life where we have either done something or not done something, only because we were concerned about what other people think about us. It is so valuable to just be who we are, even if people refuse to accept us that way. But if our life is governed by public approval, we live like victims, crushed under the opinions of society. It is a symbol of great strength to just be who we are and do what feels right & comfortable to us. But often we base our decisions on public approval. We even do certain things that don’t align with our priority, values or capacity. Know yourself, accept yourself, admirate yourself and appreciate yourself, then your happiness will not be dependent on approval from others. Create your own definitions of right and wrongs, values and principles. Your priorities, choices, decisions, habits need to align with them. Losing people’s approval when you decide to do something which is right, doesn’t make you wrong. Your peers might own an expensive phone, but you not need not be embarrassed about buying a lesser expensive model. If you do anything just to please people, you may do the act but create thoughts of stress, anxiety and unwillingness. Train your mind to live life on your terms and ignore social pressures. Stop worrying about people public approval and be authentic. I am a powerful being. I choose what is right for me. I have my own definitions of right and wrong, peer pressure, public opinion does not touch me. Every decision I take is my choice. People may approve of me, may not approve of me. I do not seek approval. I do not need appreciation. I choose what is right for me. Learn to get in touch with the silence within yourself and know that everything in this life has a purpose. There are no mistakes, no coincidences. All events are blessings given to us to learn from Almighty God. Good thoughts precede great deeds. Great deeds precede Success.

 When you replace ‘lose’ with ‘learn’ the thought of failure becomes less daunting & lets you focus on growth. Let the failures in your life be your learning experiences. Avoid failures by analysing your perspective of such earlier occurrences. Further, make your experiences available to others so that alround failures can be minimised. A very important part of our lives is touching, heart warming each one we meet with our love and best wishes at every step. We all know what a good natured, complaisant, cheerful person is and that we should be one and give happiness, contentment, pleasure to everyone. We all also know that people all over the world, who are nice natured, benevolent, amiable, friendly, differ from the rest of the world & stand above everyone else. They are respected more and also they get the blessings, commendation grace of everyone much more. How often do we say, such a person is extremely kind hearted, is always giving care and support to all those whom h...

 At the end of each day, we tick off items from our ‘To- Do’ list. Kindly let us also check our ‘To- Be’ list. Daily self evaluation, estimation, judgment, appraisal is a healthy practice and the key to success, accomplishment, achievement in every sphere of our lives. At some point or the other, we receive feedback, assessment, estimation, response from other people about our inner personality, character, nature, charisma of who we are, who we can be, and how can we improve, enhance, upgrade, boost. Instead of knowing ourselves through the eyes of others, we can self evaluate ourselves daily and improve our inner personality. This will bring a drastic, exorbitant, extravagant, desperate change in your looks, your behaviour, attitude, conduct, your personality, temperament, charisma without fail. You may not get a chance to partake in some gigantic, extensive, enormous, colossal scheme of service through which millions may be aided, helped, benefitted; you can lift a lame lamb over...
