Hard Work a Road To Glory.

Hard work is the most important key to success. The achievements without hard work are impossible. An idle person can never gain anything if they sit and wait for the better opportunity to come. The person who is working hard is able to gain the success and happiness in life. Nothing is easy to be achieved in life without doing any hard work.

The Edison was working for 21 hours a day, and he sleeps only for 2 or 3 hours on the Laboratory tables with his books as his pillow. The prime minister of India late Pt. Nehru, he was working for 17 hours a day and seven days a week. There were no holidays in his calendar. The Mahatma Gandhi Ji worked ceaselessly day and night and he won freedom for his country. The hard work is a price that we pay for success in the life.

The constant vigilance and preparedness to work is the price we have to pay for the success in life. Work is a privilege and a pleasure, the idleness is a luxury that no one can afford. Man is born to work and prosper in life. He like steel shines in use and rusts in rest. The work is worship. The man of actions acts in the living present. There is no tomorrow for him. He makes the best of time. Life is full of strife. It is the action, activity of law of nature. A life of idleness is a life of shame and disgrace. Idle men are intruders on society. We are endowed with brain and limbs, which are meant to be properly exercised. The failure in life is very often due to idleness. The Industry is the key to success, Industry makes and idleness mars a nation.Greatness can be achieved by great labour only. What a man earns by the sweat of his brow gives him a greater degree of satisfaction than what he gets by a stroke of fortune. The man wishes to have many things in their life. These latter things acquired by hard toil are much than those gets by accident. When a man earns by dint of toil; he enjoys a pleasurable sensation which is equivalent to the joy of having won a victory. Of this pleasurable sensation, the man who has been born with a silver spoon in his mouth knows nothing. A self-made man is certainly happier and more esteemed than the man who owes his fortune to the accident of his birth.

Not poverty but the idealness is a great curse. If we waste time, time shall waste us. A life crammed with work is a life bubbling with the joy of success. Great men of the world were born in cottages but they died in palaces.

So, the hard work is very necessary and we should always work hard as hard work always pays off.

Journey.

As I am moving on with my life and doing things that must be done, I am finding that more and more people are tuning into what I have to say and how I am living my life. There are an ever increasing number of youths and people at higher stations in life who are taking my stands on different issues as the standard. This increasing fame and influence has given me a different perspective on life. While I used to be the center of my universe before, I have made the fundamental principles of life to be the center of my life. According to Einstein, Insanity is doing the same thing again and again but expecting different results. We must change some aspects of our lives if we are unhappy with the circumstances or people we are attracted to ourselves. If we want something we never had, we must become something that we never were. We’d be very careful about our speech if we knew the power of our words. By the idle words, some men have destroyed themselves and their life that would otherwise could have been one of great enjoyment and pleasure.
Disappointments have been the source of the greatest genius, inventions, creations and successes. Disappointments force us to think, look, listen and make radical changes in our lives. Tragedies bring into light the self within us that we never knew existed. Some of the disappointments in my life have made me realize the extent of strength I had within me that I never knew of. It’s the nature’s way of teaching us lessons necessary for us at the particular moment.
Nature is ever evolving and it’s always setting an example for us to move upward and onward continuously. However, some of us refuse to listen to the divine voice and stay amid our past or the ruins unless death of a friend or lover, end of a comfortable occupation or source of living or a great tragedy that forces us to change. As Napoleon Hill said, FIn every adversity, there lies a seed of equal or greater benefit.” So, do all the disappointments and failures. They come to guide us, teach us, and make us think about things we never would otherwise learn.
Tragedies change the course of our life. They bring into the light our faults and weaknesses which would otherwise remain undetected. Like Shakespeare said in Julius Caesar in the words of Brutus, We are underlings.” Everything good or bad that comes into our life is because of who we are. We attract not what we want but who we are and if we are to attract better people and circumstances, we must build those qualities in ourselves. We must become one with our ideal dreams and desires. Creator of the universe has made us in such a way that we must move on in our life or perish. All the experiences in our life good and bad come to teach us things that we must learn at the moment, apply the information and get on with what we must do. Each of us are here to perform the work of the creator. Finding your dreams and reaching your destination.
I welcome any of you who want to be a part of our vision irrespective of your nationality, caste, color, education or anything that’s keeping you in misery. I want you to dream with us and help create a world where life is an ever increasing journey of happiness. I bet you that there is a vacant spot in our team which you can fill, but nobody else can fill and there is a thing that you can do but nobody else can do. Orison Swett Marden says, When we are sure that we are on the right road there is no need to plan our journey too far ahead. No need to burden ourselves with doubts and fears as to the obstacles that may bar our progress. We cannot take more than one step at a time.
How to take immediate control of your Mental, emotional As Henley wrote, If we are the master of our fate and the captain of our soul.” This is true because we can control what happens to us next by controlling our words, thoughts and actions. Most people give away to their feelings and do things that they have to regret later. Most of the unhappiness in the world would have ended if people exercised their birthright of being able to control their mind. Getting our spiritual life in the right direction is of utmost importance if we are to have peace of mind and happiness throughout our life.
There is guidance within us to lead us to the right path throughout our life if we just listen to it. If our spiritual part of life is not tainted, the voice of the conscience within will be obvious. There is a wise saying, “Explore, Dream and Discover.” That’s what a successful life is really all about. It is a journey.

When I was growing up, every time I took my brother"s toy or called my brother names, my mother would grab me by the wrist and demanded that I offer an apology. What’s more, if the apology didn’t sound meaningful enough to her, I had to repeat it until my tone was genuine. An apology was the basic reaction to any mistake.

Now that I’m older, I see apologizing as more than just a household rule. My younger self didn’t understand the complexities of human pride and self-righteousness, but my older self does.

Now, I see family members refusing to talk to each other for years after an argument just because neither side wants to be the first to let go of their pride and “break down and apologize.” 

I think we’ve reached a day and age where showing emotional vulnerability can be viewed as a positive rather than a negative quality.

People are becoming more aware of ideas like empathy and sensitivity, and everywhere we are being encouraged to talk about our feelings, to seek help, and to connect with others. Gone are the days of keeping everything bottled up inside to suffer alone.

As we move forward in this time of self-knowledge and self-discovery, it’s vital to acquire the ability to recognize our own mistakes. NOBODY IS PERFECT, and we all will do something to hurt another person at some point in our lives. The difference, however, lies acknowledging that we have done something wrong.

This was hard for me to grasp, because I was taught that an apology should be an automatic response.

It took me a long time to realize what it meant to say “I’m sorry” from the heart. Apologizing just for the sake of apologizing is meaningless. We cannot genuinely apologize if we can’t admit to ourselves that we made a mistake.

Learning to apologize is the first and most important step in the healing process. Not only does it show the recipient that you acknowledge their right to feel hurt, but it opens the way to forgiveness.

It seems so silly, really. I mean, it’s only two tiny words. How can something so small be so powerful?

Well, there have been various scientific studies on the power of apologizing, which have demonstrated that when the victim receives an apology from his offender, he develops empathy toward that person, which later develops more quickly into forgiveness.

This is due to the fact that when we receive an apology, we feel that our offender recognizes our pain and is willing to help us heal.

Timing is an important aspect to keep in mind, as well, because sometimes the other person might not be ready to accept your apology. Sometimes we need to allow time to heal the wounds a little bit before we come forward to say “I’m sorry.”

An apology cannot undo what has been done, but it can help ease the pain and tension of the aftermath. It gives hope for rebuilding, and puts value on the relationship rather than the individual’s pride.

Sometimes people don’t even realize the hurt they are creating around them by failing to take responsibility for their actions. Maybe it’s you, maybe it’s someone you know, but everyone knows someone who has suffered from this at some time.

Now is the time to make a change.

Often times those two simple words are worth more than a lifetime of excuses and explanations.

Choose the path of humility. Choose the path of healing. Choose love above pride. Choose to apologize.

A Half Truth

MAGIC OF WRITING....

Sometimes there is just one step between you and happiness and it’s called – “open up about your feelings”. It happens that we simply can’t express the way we feel towards some person. Have you ever had such a tricky situation? Do you have it now? Well, don’t panic. 

We live in a digital era when letters may be considered too old-fashioned. However, there’s something romantic and unique about writing a paper letter, especially if you write it to someone special in your life. We’ve got some great examples of long love paragraphs for her which are perfect for this purpose.

Boys, don’t forget an old but true statement: “A man falls in love through his eyes, a woman through her ears.” We guarantee that your girl will be in seventh heaven if you tell her about your deep love using short ‘I love You’for her. Take your relationship to a higher level of cuteness with nice couple paragraphs and good ‘why I love you’ paragraphs for girls.

Being away from each other, even if it’s temporary, is a harsh trial. In times like that, it is crucial to keep in touch. Everyday phone calls, cute text messages and either short or really long emails are exactly what we are talking about. As for the last, meaningful ‘I miss you’won’t let your better half forget that you think about her every day.

To cut it short, just remember that it is always the right time to write to your girlfriend or wife about your feelings and nothing works better for this than a romantic paragraph for her sent with love.

Sorrow and Joy of Life

Life, to most of us, is a succession of sorrows.

Almost all religions have a similar prescription. The Christian tells us not to think much of our material possessions, for even if we lose the kingdom of the earth, we will gain the kingdom of Heaven. Islam tells of the gates of Paradise, with all the joys, which we were denied on earth, will open wide to welcome us to eternal happiness.

The Hindus want us to perform our duties without attachment and without any expectation, and one day we will be released from the bondage of worldly life. The Buddhist points to the Eightfold Path that will help us attain Nirvana, which means extinction of all births, rebirth, and desires.

Really few want to escape the sorrows of life by getting rid of what we believe to be the very sources of joy. But I would say rather that the remedy has proved impracticable, since inspite of preaching it for thousand of years, it has not brought man any nearer to the final conquest of sorrows.

The philosopher may deny life but poet Tagore is there to sing of the beauty and blessedness of life. His message comes to us refreshingly, — "Salvation through renunciation, — no, that is not for me." Life is very sweet, brother; who would wish to die? As a matter of fact, if life had not its plentiful store of joys, man would have given up the effort to live as a hopeless business. Our joys, indeed, more than outweigh the sorrows that the pessimists exaggerate. We prefer to be with the poets rather than with the pessimists and weeping philosophers. Every moment of our existence has something to bring us, some prospect of joy, some chance of happiness, some fulfillment of our hopes. Why should we speak of sorrows more than of joys?There is a saying that "Happiness is an occasional episode (in life) in an otherwise drama of pain." Above all, we must go all out, with courage and faith, to meet challenge of circumstances — "to have faith in God, keeping our powder dry." Let us learn the great lesson — "joy cannot come unless it be earned." Sorrow, therefore, is the price that we have to pay in order to earn happiness. 

Of course, in the last analysis, most of our sufferings are due to the social conditions in which we live, where the interests of the majority are sacrificed for the few. Had there been equitable distribution of national wealth, three-fourths of the ills of life, poverty and want, non-education and unemployment, starvation and disease would have been eliminated. Hence, the crying need of the society is the social justice

True Friendship

      TRUE FRIENDSHIP 

Our friends mean so much to us. When we are with our friends we have a good time. When we want to share a joke it is our friends whom we choose. When we want to enjoy a holiday we do it best with our friends. When we want to unwind after a hard day’s work it is with our friends.

It is a true friend who can turn a grey day into a bright and beautiful one. A real friend is like spring time. Just as spring can bring blooming flowers, singing birds and dancing butterflies, our friends can make us have broad smiles, cheerful hearts and chirpy tunes to hum.

It is love that friends share generously. And that is what enables them to also share their miseries, troubles and pains as also joys, pleasures and successes. Your true friend wants to see you happy just as you always wish your friend to be joyful. And just as you become miserable if failure or sorrow come your friend’s way, your friend is left feeling terrible should trouble or misery come your way.

Friendship is a bond between two hearts. Hence it stays intact; rather, it grows from strength to strength. This is what gives true friends the capacity to stay together through thick and thin with affection and with joy.

Friends treasure and cherish their relationship. For the sake of your true friend you would be willing to go not just the extra mile, but much more. True friendship is a very powerful bond. Even if frictions happen to come between you and your friend they are meaningless and have no weight, and are as transient as a whiff of air. It is the power of love that makes for a true friendship. The bond of true friendship is unbreakable. No tempest is too much for true friends.

Between two friends there is nothing to hide. True friends can be absolutely frank with each other, ready to pour their heart out to the other. In a friendship between two close and dear friends, the love for each other is limitless and undying. And so one could share a relationship of true friendship with one’s parent or sibling or then one’s spouse. In fact God is often one’s real friend. True friendship stands the test of time. When all else will desert, a true friend will still be around.

Miss you Friends and that Golden days & time that we spend together.{#anupam,#tanu,#shreya,#saurav,#all old friends.......}

 SIMPLE LIVING HIGH THINKING.. 

This proverb advises human beings to limit their wants and desires as there is no end to them. If we run in pursuit of every desire of ours we shall never be satisfied as these keep growing on and on.

We all agree that most of the things we want are not really for ourselves. We want them to impress our neighbours, friends and relatives. This kind of life can never be fulfilling or pleasurable. This is because we are not born to please or impress others and we can never even do so. Whatever we do people only look for opportunities to find flaws in us and this leaves us all the more dissatisfied. We try to earn more and more, reach at a high position in the company, increase our social circle and shop for expensive clothes and household items – what for? All this is done to establish a good social standing.

Now, this is not to say that there is something wrong with being ambitious and making a good living. All this might as well bring us satisfaction at some level but it also takes away a lot from us. However, in the quest of making it big professionally and earning more and more to quench the undying desires people spend a lot of time at work and neglect their parents, spouse and kids. This distances them from the family and disturbs their personal relationships and all this only leads to stress.

If we lower our materialistic wants and stick to our needs, we shall be able to create a balance between our personal and professional life. This way we shall be able to spend more time with our family where the true joy lies. We shall also have enough time for ourselves, to look within and find out our true purpose of life.
