How to be BLISSFULL in a "shitty" scenario


HI There, here I am again to share something which took me years to discover and somewhat works wonders.So as the title goes, HOW can we stay blissful when we are in a 'shitty' moment.That happens often in our lives right ?
In our day to day activities, there might be times that we are in fully 'contended', I mean we are in a good mood, everything seems to be in control and it looks like sun shine all the way.But there might be sometimes that, things are just not right.Everything seems to happen completely opposite from our expectation.In some cases, for no reason we will be screwed.Do you wonder WHY these things happen ? Its just like a roller coaster ride, sometimes we will be in a peak state and sometimes we will be emotionally down and feel shitty.
The irony here is 'SHIT" happens but HOW can we overcome it ?
Below are some of my personal experiences on how I maintain the 'State of Flow' throughout the day
GRATITUDE
Firstly, every day without fail, I start my day with a GRATITUDE exercise.Its my 'daily ritual' for the past 2 years.For your information, I drive to work so the moment I drive out from my house compound, I will start this GRATITUDE exercise of thanking GOD for everything that I have.My recite goes like this :
Thank you GOD for my wonderful family
Thank you GOD for my 3 beautiful kids
Thank you GOD for my job
Thank you GOD for my car
Thank you GOD for this road which I'm travelling right now
Thank you GOD for giving me this mindset of doing this 'Gratitude' exercise'
Thanks you  GOD for my legs & hand and all my organs which is functioning well..
Thank you GOD.....
Well the list goes on for good 10 to 15 minutes.I will try to go as detailed as possible and I will try to find all reasons possible to THANK GOD.This exercise somehow makes me start my day with a positive note and positive feeling.Its a simple exercise that many of us overlook but for me but it gives a great impact.The irony of this exercise is, each time when you do it, you will realize how much actually GOD have given you and how much you are gifted you can't thank him enough for that.
Another advantage of starting your day with gratitude is, when you start your day with appreciating what you have, you will somehow have 'less' focus on what happened yesterday or what went wrong yesterday.In my case, before I was doing this GRATITUDE exercise, I use to start my day with a 'blank' mind.So I realized that when my mind is 'blank' , the whole game of 'picking' on the negativity starts..I start to think of what happened yesterday and start to pick on what all went wrong and without realizing, I start to attract all the negative emotions such as anger,hatred and dis-satisfactory in my routine in that particular day.So basically before even starting my day, I have attracted all these negative emotions in my day and this is mainly because of picking on what happened 'yesterday'.As the saying goes "An Idle mind is a DEVILS WORKSHOP" !!!
So basically this GRATITUDE exercise helped me to disconnect my focus from my past experiences and made me focus and be grateful of the 'current' moments.So that's GRATITUDE
EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique)
The next thing that I use to do is EFT.This technique is quite famous in the western countries but I have not heard much of this in ASIA, at least till to date.Well this is some sort of action which helped me to acknowledge the problem which I had and overcome it with love.For example,if I'm pissed with my boss, using the EFT technique I will tap my finger and say out loud 
"Even though I'm really pissed with Mr X, I COMPLETELY LOVE & ACCEPT MYSELF"
This is a strange ritual ,which helped me to acknowledge my problems,which has been running in my head,bring it forward and clear it with LOVING myself.Yes...you heard it right...by 'LOVING MYSELF'
A strange way to overcome problems but its very very very effective...
Well, only after doing this EFT, I realized that the fundamental cause for all the issues we are facing in our lives is our 'internal feeling', so its basically US and not the world outside there.So if we can neutralize our emotions within by LOVING OURSELVES,then the issues we are facing currently will become complete obsolete because you are not reacting to it.The more we react to certain scenario's, the more we are feeding it with emotions & energy and at the end of the day, that's what will materialize.Remember THOUGHT+EMOTION=MATERIALIZATION.Well,switching your mind or diverting your thinking to something else will only give you 'temporary' relief.Unfortunately after a while, all the thoughts which has been going around in your mind, will surface .Basically sweeping things under the carpet will never help. So this EFT technique, made me internalize; identify the actual thoughts which is bothering me,face it & clear it with LOVE & COMPASSION to MYSELF.
For your information, the transformation doesn't happen overnight, it requires continues practice. I would also like to confess here that I didn't take any specific training on this EFT. Basically Youtube was my 'guru'. Its working  well for me till to date, so if you want to know more about EFT, please Google or Youtube it.
EFT video 
(just type EFT in youtube and you will get a whole list of videos on EFT)
DIVERT YOUR THINKING:
SET A HIGH VISION THAT MAKES YOUR CURRENT PROBLEM OBSOLETE
As per my Vishen's talk (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8ZFU4FoNvY) its very important for us to set a higher goal or vision, which excites us and which makes our current problem obsolete.A simple example is assuming, you have financial problems right now, your saving are not growing but depleting and your expenses are up to your neck. In a normal scenario, what will we do ? We will worry about what is going to happen tomorrow, based on our current scenario, in this case is financial issue. Based on our current bank balance, we will worry about HOW are we going to meet our end to end needs if the bank balance stays like this. This feeling of 'WORRY' will eventually add up to the 'FEAR' and basically your whole thought and emotions will be around your financial issue. So as I have mentioned before, THOUGHT + EMOTION = MATERIALIZATION. So when you keep thinking about your financial situation (THOUGHTS) and worry too much about it (EMOTION) eventually thats what you will attract. More of financial issues and difficulties.
What I have learnt along the way is our MIND IS A MONKEY MIND. It keeps jumping from one thought to another, as the monkey jumps from one tree to another. So the game is, we have to feed our mind with a 'RIGHT' thought.What I’ve realized is, each time I have an issue, I tend to 'only' focus on issue and that brings about all the negative emotions (fear,anxiety and etc) in me and eventually attract more of these scenarios in my life.So what I learnt is, if we set a higher goal for ourselves, somehow our thoughts will be focused on that goal and we will no longer think of the current scenario.We have to create a higher vision of what we want to experience.So assuming that you are facing financial issue right now,what I would propose you to do is :
1) Clearly set a goal of HOW MUCH you want to have in your bank account.Write it down in future tense
2) Visualize AS IF you already have it and HOW DOES IT FEEL to be there
3) Decide HOW MUCH you want to contribute to the society.
Keep in mind that all these thoughts have nothing to do with your current reality.YOU CREATE YOUR OWN REALITY by focusing on HOW you want things to be or to materialize.
The below statement is a sample of what I did for myself
Its 5.5.2014 Today, and I have ($ The amount you desire to have) in my (Account number/Bank) and I will contribute ($$$ Amount that you want to donate) for charity.(decide on what charity you want to do)

'I LOVE MYSELF' technic (Something which I discover myself)
This is something that I discover myself by "chance".After reading and watching a lot personal growth videos, I realize that, one of the main element which brings us to the next level of our growth is 'aligning your energy within'.When I mentioned 'energy' its basically the feeling and experience that you have within.So what I came to know is, the fundamental element which gives a great impact in aligning your energy within is LOVE.SO basically, when I have any issues, now, I will just close my eyes and say "I LOVE MYSELF".I don't merely say it but I will feel it within,right in the core.So when I do this, most of the time, I will feel a rush of energy flowing through me and that neutralises my feeling and energy within.

So guys, the above are some of the methods which works best for me, it might be different for you.
So please use what works best for you and also share if you have any other methods which you practice yourself.




Remember :

ITS ALL IN YOUR THOUGHTS and YOU CAN CHANGE IT IN SPLIT SECONDS


So that's for now...


Dear readers,

May GOD bless you with ABUNDANCE OF LOVE,HAPPINESS,HEALTH & WEALTH

How did I attract my JOB


Sounds like an interesting topic rite! Well it IS !!!
Its all started when I lost my job in one of the American MNC company which I was working 2 years back.The company was sold of to the competitor and we were layed out from our jobs.I was in this company for 2.5 years so basically I received compensation money which will lasted me for 3 months.

Well this was my first experience of being layed of from my job.As much as I was exited to received the compensation money , i was also nervous as in what's going happen after 3 months as I have a family to feed and bills to pay.What will happen IF I don't get a job within 3 months ?So here comes the whole 'mind' thing in place.

LEARN TO GIVE
By the grace of GOD or DIVINE PROVIDENCE, this was the time I got exposed to the whole "SECRET movie" thingy.So I was into the whole "think positive" stuff and etc.For some reason the one thing I was very clear about is "NOT TO ACT THE SAME WAY AS HOW THE NORMAL PEOPLE WILL REACT"when they are jobless. Meaning is I decided to react on this 'JOBLESS' scenario in acompletely contradicting way against the 'norms'.So basically when some one is jobless, they will think about every single penny that they spend because it might not be enough for tomorrow (future) Smart thinking but it didn't impress me.I did completely the opposite.I donated a big chunk of my compensation money to charity.A crazy move but made me feel like a millionaire when I had none :-P 
To be frank, I donated the most money for charity when I was JOBLESS !!!! Strange isn't it ?? But ya..that's the truth.So with that mindset somehow I overcome the fear of  "not enough" and started to live the life of "ABUNDANCE".You see, the actual fact is I have money for the next 3 months but normally what we will do?? We tend to worry of what's going to happen AFTER the 3 months and that's where the whole 'FEAR GAME' starts.

WATCH YOU TUBE
I basically didn't let my mind to wonder much.Instead, I was watching to a lot of motivational & inspiration video.In a normal circumstances,what will a jobless person do?He/She will be busy buying newspapers to check out job vacancies, go for headhunters, register in all the 'Job Search' services and basically spend 200% for job hunting.I was very serious with my principle of ONLY DOING CONTRADICTING stuff so I only spend about 30% of my time hunting for jobs.I didn't go after any head hunters nor I wend job hunting drastically.I did apply for job but not all day long.Basically I was more focused on 'myself'.I meditated a lot & I watched a lot for inspirational video just to keep the "HOPE" in me going.I realize that, when you tend to focus on positive stuffs which give you the feeling of 'HOPE', somehow you will 'forget' about the fear in you.The fear feeling of not getting the job, the fear feeling of not able to fulfill my end needs and etc.These exercise of watching You tube helped me a lot from disconnecting from the negative thoughts and engage to the positive thoughts.I guess its all about keeping your mind busy with something positive stuff.Some of the video's that I watched is :

WISDOM OF WILL SMITH

WISDOM OF ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER 

JOHN ASSAROF on his VISION BOARD


DO YOUR VISION BOARD
I guess this is the right time to define where you want to be in future.The pain of 'current' scenario can be a great seed to 'DEFINE' how you want your future to be but most of the time we don't do that.We keep focusing on our current scenario.If you are broke currently, you will definitely know the pain and the frustration of being broke so most of the time we will end up in a "WHY ME?" syndrome where we keep questing our current reality.When you are in this 'WHY ME' syndrome definitely we will have a strong 'negative' emotions tied to it and the end result would be, we will attract more of this sympathetic scenario in our lives.There is this "Other area" that many of us don't focus on.The area of "HOPE".As much as we can worry of the current scenario, we can also think or imagine of HOW your life would be if you are completely in the 'opposite' scenario.Its just a matter of CHOICE.A 'choice' of looking into the positive side rather than the negative side.So what I did was I used this jobless time to build my VISION BOARD.Ya I actually build my 'Vision Board' when I was jobless! I put my thoughts on HOW my life will be in future rather than putting my thought on me being jobless and etc.So its all about putting your thoughts on the positive side.When you have a strong HOPE of the future, internally you will feel good and the feeling that you have internally will somehow attracts the positiveness in your life.I was actually thinking of the kind of job I wanted to have, the position, the working attire, the travels and all those good stuff I wanted to have.Not only I build my vision board, but I actually 'VISUALIZING' it as if it was real.During this time, somehow I got exposed to this thing called "Napolean Hills' Invisible Counselors Technic" and that took my visualization to the next level.

Napolean Hills' Invisible Counselors Technic

DO WHAT YOU LOVE & SCREW OTHER PEOPLES THOUGHT
When you are in a helpless position, there will be a lot of people around who will try to help you.Most them will try to help you by sharing their experience and indirectly impose 'their' best practices on you,which is OK in some sense, as they are trying to help.But there will be some people who will just come in your life to give 'free' advice and make you feel like shit !! You get what I mean...these people will just come with a big smile, pour everything and at the end of the day, they will make you feel like shit and take your 'smile' away.My only advice....Screw all these people, you definitely don't need them in your life.When I say 'Screw' them, i didn't mean screw them verbally or physically !!! What I mean is 'Screw' their THOUGHTS...'Screw' their 'THEORY' and 'SCREW' their BELIEVE SYSTEM.Guys, the point here is,other peoples experience don't have to be your reality.You get what I mean..if someone has done something for the past 10 years,may be successful in it, that doesn't have to be the only way of success, you might discover some other way.You define your own success.All you have to do is listen to your voice within and just follow it undoubtedly.Well my story on this chapter goes like this.It was already 2 months and I'm still jobless,I've applying for job, attending interviews and etc but nothing seems to work yet.During this time, I was involved in my favorite social service activity which is called CCC (Community Cleaning Club).Its an activity to create environmental awareness and raise environmental consciousness among the public,mainly focus on cleanliness.Basically what we do is, we get down to the streets and PICK UP RUBBISH !!!! Its a dirty job but for me, there is so much of 'spiritual' element in it and it was so 'BLISSFUL' doing it.The point here is I was doing what I love doing the most, which had the 'heart' element all around it.But being 'Jobless' and 'Picking up Rubbish' was NOT at all a good combination for a successful person,in the eye of the public.Each time when I get down to the ground to do CCC with garbage bags in my hand, some will really adore me and appreciate me but some will give me a pathetic & a sympathetic look,which will make you feel like shit but again, my only 'motto' that time was "SCREW PEOPLES THOUGHT" 
I was in some sort of a 'defensive' mode where I never bothered what people think about me and what's going to happen tomorrow.All I wanted to do is be in a state of 'flow' where you can be happy & feel the divine in the 'inside'

So here comes the most painful cum strengthening moment.One fine day, one the 'elders' in my family called me and my wife to his office.The scenario is like this, he was sitting in front of me and me & my wife was sitting side by side, facing him.He asked me, how is the progress of getting the job and etc but obviously my answer was negative as till that date I went for couple of interviews but I didn't get a job yet.He pulled out a paper and started advising me.He drew "Maslow's Theory" chart and started advising me.He said firstly we need to secure our Physical need (food,health and etc) then we have secure our SECURITY needs (shelter,safety and stability) then only comes SOCIAL needs (social service and etc)..then he stopped there for a moment and looked at me.I was wondering why is he telling me all this which I actually know..only after few minutes, I realized that he was actually picking on my 'social service' activity which is 'CCC = Picking up rubbish'.
So what he is trying to say is, "Dude..Get a job first, get a constant income,then you focus on CHARITY".Well these are my words but this is exactly what he wanted to portray to me.It was quite an embarrassing moment for me, I could not look into his eye and it seems like I was on the 'losing' side.My heads were down but my 'thoughts' were up high.I was telling in my heart "GOD, you have to do something about it, I'm not doing anything wrong"..Quite a painful moment but again I was back into my 'motto', "SCREW PEOPLE'S THOUGHTS" So in this case it was "SCREW MASLOV'S THEORY"
I was very clear that I won't stop doing charity or social service.Many think that we should establish ourselves first, only after that we should involve in charity or social service.That's completely a BULLSHIT !!
This so called "establishing" ourselves is a never ending story.Our desires will never end and that's the fact.So my simple argument is, if you don't do social service NOW you will never do it when you are THERE (ESTABLISHED) because once you are so called 'Established' you will have more things to do...different priorities and etc.So its NOW or NEVER !!!!



CLIMAX : VISUALIZATION
Although this topics ties to the VISION BOARD which I mentioned earlier, I would like to talk about it at the last part as this is where the actually story of materialization took place.I started to imagine myself getting the job I want.I started to visualize the details as in what Shirts I will wear to office, HOW does my office room look like and etc.So its pretty much diving into 'details'.So I attended couple of interview and there was this one interview which I strongly felt I will get the job.Let me just name it as company X.Its a well know "MNC" company.So, after the second interview, I asked the Director "What is the post that you are going to offer? " He said " We have create one NOW...Its going to be a regional role but the HR will get back to you on this" So basically they are creating a post which didn't exist, for me, if I'm successful so I started diving into my visualization exercise more vigorously.
  I started to visualize as if the appointment letter is in front of me.I started to visualize the details in the appointment letter, which is the company logo, my designation and reporting date.These 3 details are very significant so please pay attention here.

Company logo
I imagines as if the company logo was on the left hand side of the appointment letter.

Designation
At that time, they didn't have any designation confirmed for me, so the designation which I imagine for myself was "SERVICE DELIVERY MANAGER"

Joint date
The joint date which I visualized on the appointment letter was 5TH JULY 2010.

So here comes the miracle of LAW OF ATTRACTION
After i guess 2 weeks I received a call from the HR telling that they are offering me the job.I was like "YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS"....That didn't end there, the position that they are offering me is"APPLICATION SERVICE MANAGER" ,what I visualize what "SERVICE DELIVERY MANAGER" but what actually materialized is "APPLICATION SERVICE MANAGER"  so it was 75% of what I visualize..

And now comes the 'mind blowing' part.As I mentioned earlier, I visualize my joint date as 5th July 2010.But according to the HR, they want me to join on the 12th of July 2010.At this time round I completely forgot about the date of joint which I visualized on the appointment letter (5th July 2010) , obviously I was so happy that I got the job so the date of joint didn't really matter but the "UNIVERSE" see's every single thing.
ON 2nd of July 2010 (Friday), I received a call from the Director and he requested me to join early.He wanted me to join as early as next monday to take the handover, so without hesitating I said OK.Even at that time I didn't think of the date, but later in the evening, my wife told me that "You are going to join your new work on your lucky date".Only then I realized that I was actually going joint my new job on 5th JULY 2010, WHICH WAS ACTUALLY THE DATE I VISUALIZED !!!!!!!

That's AMAZING isn't it.This Law of Attraction stuff really works...

I would also like to highlight that it was NOT ONLY ABOUT Law of Attraction.There were also some divine souls who really helped me & recommended me to their company HR contacts so that I can get a job soon.I have to say that I got the job, not only because of the change in my mindset but also because of some good souls who helped me effortlessly.

I'm summary :

DO THINGS THAT YOU LOVE & BELIEVE
SCREW PEOPLE'S THOUGHTS..
YOU DEFINE YOUR DIRECTION
VISUALIZE & WAIT !!!
THE BEST OF THE BEST WILL COME TO YOU

May GOD bless all the reader with abundance of LOVE,HAPPINESS, HEALTH & WEALTH

THE BALL IS ALWAYS IN OUR COURT

Our life is a journey.A journey of experience, a journey of learning, a journey full of emotions.So basically, every day is a new day with new experiences and new scenarios.Sometimes we will be in a scenario that makes us happy, pleased,overwhelmed and sometimes it will be completely the other way round.We might end up in a scenario that makes us sad, frustrated, jealous,angry and etc.All these are basically emotions which influences our 'day to day' experience.

So now, coming back to the title,"The Ball is always in our court".

As mentioned , we are experiencing all these emotion, whether its 'happy' or 'sad','anger' or 'peace' and more "because of something".There is basically a 'reason' behind why we are happy or sad, correct ? This so called 'reason' could be because of a simple praise from your boss or a loud nagging from your boss as well.Sounds familiar ?? The main point here which I would like to share is, we tend to always allow the  'external factors' to influence on HOW we feel internally.But a matter of fact , it doesn't have to be like that.

As per my simple example above (the office) scenario, in a normal scenario, we will get carried away by the praise of our boss rite but the question is HOW often does your boss praises you ? Praise is equivalent to appreciation, right ? Why can't we appreciate ourselves rather than waiting for someone else to appreciate us.Sound crazy, may be but the underlying principle which causes our emotions relies in US and not with someone else.When someone praises you, how would you feel ? You will feel good, feel positive and obviously you will feel happy.Now WHY you have to wait till someone praises you ? What's wrong in you appreciating your self ?

For example, you can start your day with GRATITUDE, think about all those things which you have, which you are happy about,example you can thank GOD for giving you wonderful family, friend, job, and etc.I personally start my day by thanking GOD for giving me a wonderful wife,kids,job and sometimes I go very details to thank GOD for giving me good health, good functioning organs,legs,hands and I will try pick on every simple magnitude thing that I can think of to THANK GOD.So this puts me in a positive vibration the whole day.

So now, as I mentioned in the title, "THE BALL IS ALWAYS IN YOUR COURT"

Now lets look into the negative scenario.Assuming someone has pissed you off or may be you just got scolding from your boss or may be you didn't get something that you expected.What would be your exact feeling ? I'm sure its more of a 'frustrated' feeling than 'happy' feeling,rite.So WHO is actually responsible for this feeling, is it the person outside there or is it you.In a normal way of thinking, immediately all the readers will say the 'the person outside' there is one who is responsible to screwing up your day.But in reality,you do have a choice to put your thought on the positive side.

Example 1 : Someone pissed you off
'Pissed off' means past tense right.The action is done and no way you can rewind back, rite so whats the point of thinking about it anyway.Assuming someone took your parking space in the morning, and you get pissed.If you bring those feeling to your office,what will happen, more damage will be created.But if you choose to stay calm, put your thought on a positive side by 'assuring' in your mind that you will get another parking spot,the total vibration or the internal feeling changes.The irony of you getting the parking space or not is a different story but the point here is to disconnect from the negative emotions and focus on the positive emotions.Assuring yourself of getting a parking lot is equivalent to creating a positive vision (getting a parking lot) of which makes your current scenario(parking taken by someone else) obsolete.Do you guys get what I mean ?

To overcome a problem, you must have a higher vision that makes the current problem OBSOLETE.This is from Vishen Lakiani from MINDVALLEY.

Example 2 : BOSS SCOLDED YOU
Of course its an embarrassing scenario.A scenario which questions your dedication & credibility at work.But 'scolded' mean past tense right.So its DONE, FINISH...by just thinking about it, crying over it is not going to change the scenario.All you have to do it,set a higher VISION to perform much better in future.In many cases, when we get scolding, we tend to go back to our colleague,complain,gossip and that's where things get worst.Why do you have to get a 'second opinion' on your scolding ?? Why do you have to share ? Instead of sharing, go to a place where no one disturbs you, my favorite is my company wash room :-P
Sit or stand, close your eye, go within, see what actually went wrong, identify it, learn from it and set a higher goal to improve it.Simple...all takes a few minutes only.Does it makes sense ?

Well in summary "THE BALL IS ALWAYS IN OUR COURT"   Give it a though guys...

DESIRES

DESIRES !!! 

When you say the word desires, most of the people perceive it as a negative quality.Many spiritual aspirants in this world will encourage everyone to live a simple life.


I have a serious problem with the word "simple" as it changes every now and then.It changes according to your needs,wants,income and interest.


For a person who is earning $ 50 permonth, living "simple" life simply means a roof on top of his head ,a place for shelter and minimum food to survive.But for a person who is earning $ 5 million a month,its no longer living 'Simple' but its more of 'living life' 


So what's the difference between both this people ? Is it their 'desires' ? or their 'Life GOALS' ? or its just "LUCK" ??? Based on my opinion, one the underlying principle which influences every individuals life is their "DESIRES"


For me, its a 'holistic' word.Its either you don't have desires at all and live the 'basic' life which caters the basic need or not, each and every individual in this world SHOULD HAVE THICK FAT DESIRES to live a life of ABUNDANCE.

ABUNDANCE of LOVE, HAPPINESS,HEALTH & WEALTH.

Most of the time, 80% of the population in the world live in a 'grey' area where they justify their future based on their current scenario.For an example, if they are earning $ 50 permonth, their desires will be around their 'current' income which they are getting.So indirectly,these individuals put a limit to their creative thinking because of their current scenario.They don't have big desires, they have doubt and fear in them.They always choose to settle as a mediocre.My argument is it should be either here or there.Either you choose to live a simple life with basic needs,without any goals in life or you must have BIG GOAL & DESIRE in life.There should not be anyone in this so called 'grey' area which is living in your own limitation of thoughts.


There are wonderful examples in this world, who made it really big and contribute even bigger in their lives.A few of them which inspired me personally are Sir Richard Branson, Napolean Hills,Joe Vitale,John Assarif, Vishen Lakiani and many more.All these people are created by the same source that created you and me but how is it that they have achieved so much that we haven't yet.Based on my opinion, all these people believed in what they do, they had high goals which completely blows their mind of and keeps them 'exited' and they know that by achieving their goals,they will definitely touch million peoples life out there.So basically all these people had thick fat desires and all their desires are tied with the element of giving back to society.Napolean hills said in his 'Think & Grow rich' book that there is no 'Something for nothing'.So coming back to us, why can't we have thick fat desires, I mean whats wrong in it, if it benefits the society? Nothing is impossible until you put a limit to it in your mind.Some says sky is the limit but for me even sky is some form of limitation. So no matter in what, its YOU who decides the limitation in your mind.


A simple example that I can give is, assuming that you are earning a very basic income, for example $ 500 per month which is enough for you to survive.At this point of time, nothing will come to your mind accept the worries of facing difficulties of meeting your end to end needs.So when you worry, that's basically an 'emotions' tied up to your thought.So when you have these emotions tied to your though, obviously that's what you will attract.More difficulties, more 'budget' problem and etc.Vishen Lakiani from Mind Valley said in one of his talks that, when you have a problem, you need to have a HIGHER VISION which makes your current problem completely obsolete.So in this case of the person of earning $500, he/she has an option to shift his/her thinking to a bigger purpose or goals in life such as having a goal of earning $ 5000 permonth, visualising the lifestyle that he will experience if he is in that position and of course a goal with a 'giving back' element where this person can decide to give $ 1000 for charity or the needy.All the above is just an example that I can think off, but the main point here is you can make the changes in your life by just switching the way you think.You can only switch your thought from the current scenario,IF you have another though which excites you and the DESIRE element play an important part here.


Think of a position that you can touch millions of heart.
Think of a position of which you can act without any inspiration from outside as all the inspiration comes from within you.
Think of a position which you love doing day in and out without getting tired.
Think of a position which you will never complain.

YOUR ONLY LIMITATION IS YOUR OWN MIND

We have to think BIG, visualize our dreams as if its 'real' and feel it.
Eventually it will materialize, according to the timing of the divine providence

I guess its nothing wrong having thick fat desires but ALWAYS back it up with HOW YOU CAN BENEFIT THE SOCIETY with it.

So in summary :

THINK BIG AND CONTRIBUTE EVEN BIGGER !!!

BEST ACTION is NO ACTION

  Sometimes the best action that you can ever take is NO ACTION.What I mean by that is most of the time we react to many scenarios in our life based on our emotions.This is quite tricky when comes to emotions such as anger,hatred & etc.Simple example that I can quote is the "post" in facebook. Facebook is an independent social media which allows people to express themselves freely.But sometimes a post from one person becomes an 'offensive' post to the other.These is because of differences in opinion and believe system. That's a normal fact ! The actual issue takes form when we become very defensiveness on our opinion and fail to respect other peoples opinion.I'm not even talking about accepting other's opinion but all I'm talking here is 'respecting' other's opinion.
   There are many times, I have experience reading 'post' on my friend's facebook wall which somehow becomes a platform of debate with hundreds of comments.All these happen just because we react to the scenario based on our emotions and we just can't accept a different point of view.Personally I have seen this many times.
  The classic example which I would like to share here is, some of my friends are 'vegetarians' , so these guys will always post on their facebook wall about the importance of being a vegetarian ,the importance of non violence towards animal and etc.Its their freedom of expression and nothing wrong in it.Most of the time, what happens is most of my 'non vegetarian' friends becomes offended and emotional about the post.They take it too personal and start putting up 'their' opinion in the same post and somehow these ends up as a debate with no conclusion.

  This whole scenario starts because of our own choice of action.We can easily choose not to participate in it.After all its just a facebook post, why take it too personal and get involve in it?
We have a choice of NOT to participate in it by just ignoring it but most of the time we are too tempted to give our opinion.There is nothing wrong giving an opinion but things starts to heat up when we want to prove that we are 'right' and others are 'wrong' and this somehow ends up in an emotional battle.

  Just give it a thought.....lets take the same 'Vegetarian post' example above.What if you don't respond to the post although its contradicting to your believe.Will anything happen ?? ABSOLUTELY NOT !!!!
If you just leave it as it is, nothing will happen.Things starts to happen once you get emotionally involved and react upon it.In my opinion, when we react based on our emotions we are creating more damage to the scenario.

Being right or wrong is just about your ego..although its a though "TRUTH to swallow .. we have to accept it.

We are nothing but the source of which all are created..we are not different than anyone... adore and appreciate the difference and life will be better...
