Follow Your Heart. Good things to share!!

We are here to learn lessons, and the world is our teacher. When we fail to learn a lesson, we get to take it again ... and again! Once we have learned the lesson, we move on to the next one. ( And we never run of lessons!) If we are miserable seven days a week, it's likely we've missed a lesson. Focus on good points of other people, stop judging them, even empathise a little, the problem will evaporate. When you change, ypur situation changes. Your transformation alters your circumstances. The best place to make a new start is where you are! To find even a few good friends, you begin with a lot of acquaintances. The universe rewards effort, not excuses. If it's all you've got for the moment, grab it, master it, and watch, it lead you from one thing to another. Life is accumulative. One thing adds to another- like the drops of water that wear away the rock. There is no standing still. You are either gaining or slipping. Have the discipline to do little things you don't like, and you can spend your life doing the big things you do like. Happy people don't just accept change, they embrace it. Better to live in a one-room apartment that is clean, than in a mansion that's a mess. Prosperity is not necessarily a money thing. It is a lifestyle thing. As you cease to react in horror to the unexpected, you become more balanced and you move into a position of power. Life is supposed to be fun ! Birds wake up singing every day. Babies laugh for no reason at all. Be patient with yourself. Tell yourself: "May be it's about to get better !" The challenge of life is to appreciate everything and attach ypurself to nothing. When you chase things, they run away. This is true for animals, lovers ... even money ! Desperation pulls you into a descending spiral - and the more you worry the less you achieve. People who are detached and determined know that effort and excellence are ultimately rewarded. They say: " If I don't win this time, I will win the next time, or the the time after that.." Disinterested people say: "Who cares and why bother?" Desperate people say:"If I don't get this I'll die !" Determined and detached persons say: "One way or another, I will get a good job - and I don't care how long it takes." You do everything you can to make it work, and then you tell yourself: " I don't need this to be happy." Forget it and move on, and more often than not, the result will come. Our challenge is to work with principles. Try not to be reactive to internal and external stimuli, but be proactive with principles. If you want something, give it away ! You get more of what you want, by giving away some of what you have. Prosperity is a flow - giving and receiving. The trick to giving is to give without wanting anything back. If you expect something back, you are attached to a result and when you are attached , less happens. You should enjoy your material possessions. Just make sure you own them and they don't own you. Loving people means giving them the freedom to be who they choose to be and where they choose to be. Hating things is a bad idea. While you hate something, you remain invisibly connected to it -- so it will tend to hang around. Acceptance does not mean giving up -- it means understanding what is. Getting angry, or fighting doesn't work. You overcome what you don't like by accepting what is -- not resisting -- and replacing it with something positive. Losers focus on what's impossible until all they see is impossibility. Positive thinkers think about what's possible. In concentrating on the possibilities, they make things happen. If there is something you don't want, stop worrying about it and stop talking about it. Most of us spend more time thinking about what's wrong than what's right. Choose to like whatever you are doing at the moment. If you don't like your work, you have two options-- change your attitude or change your job. Always do more than you are paid for, and one day you will be paid for more than you do. When you only give 50% effort, you suffer much more than your boss. He only loses a few dollars. You lose your enthusiasm and your self esteem and a whole chunk of your life. Carrying for people is a talent. Don't measure your abilities against others. Do what you can do. Accept what talents you have. Fulfilment comes from developing your gifts, not wishing for someone else's. Onlookers and under achievers put major emphasis on talents. For them, talent, or the lack of it, is a great excuse to do nothing. Living other people's lives is no match for living your own. When the odds are stacked against you, you develop a mental toughness just to survive. The strength you develop to survive becomes your secret weapon. The less you worry about winning and about what other people think, the better you perform. Real power comes when you are relaxed. Getting angry never works. Fear is a killer. Concentrate on what you want. It's not where you start, it's how you finish. Commitment is not wishing for something -- it is a decision deep within yourself to do whatever it is. Balance or peace of mind is your source of power. Peaceful means aligning with forces rather than fighting them. Peaceful means seeing the broader picture and not getting hung up on details. We are happiest when we are helping other people with their lives. We are loneliest when are principle goal is our own personal security. Most of us have discovered how hard it is to live in the present, and much of our time is spent either regreting the past or fearing the future. Refuse to live life in a hurry. In it's simplest form, loving yourself means forgiving yourself. It means admitting that to this point you have lived your life the best way you know how. Stop seeing yourself as guilty. Forget perfection and aim for improvement. When we forgive ourselves, we stop criticising other people. Love cures two people, the person who gives it and the person who receives it. Total acceptance is unconditional love. Your mission in life is not to change the world. Your mission is to change yorself. There are no outsde solution, only inside solution. The important thing is not where you are now, but it's what you are doing now. Being "there" is no better than being"here". If you want to find meaning, you pay attention to the moment -- and it's in the moment that you find the rewards.
