Live in the presentđŸ€”

How much worth is the so-called Internet’s bits of Advice?

Are they helping you or confusing you?

Since most of them are not practicable…Then what is the use of these thoughts, my friend?

Everybody is immersed in their own problems and are struggling hard to come out of their dissatisfaction and resulting unhappiness.

Why don’t you accept this fact and carry on as usual?

“The internet is a dangerous place. If you are not careful it will consume you and rob you of your happiness. It can make you angry, jealous, hostile, bitter and lead to the eventual loss of enthusiasm for living your best life. Be wary and avoid overconsumption.”
Germany Kent

Do you really need these pieces of advice?

Don’t you feel that these types of thoughts add insult to your injury?

Are not most of the problems are your own making?

And the irony is, you are the only person and you can be the only person to face these problems and come out successfully to the best of your ability.

Is it not so?

Is there any necessity for you to read or listen and try to follow such advice?

And there are thousands of similar useless advice floating and available freely.

Example

“Never think hard about the past…it brings tears, don’t think more about the future, it brings fears. Live this moment with a smile, it brings cheers” Unknown 

Lovely rhyming…tears, fears and cheers! Wow!

At first, this looks very pleasant to read and energetic to follow.

You are excited and start wondering why you never lived in the present!

My friend, this feeling of yours is more dangerous because you think there is no need to worry about past or future… a sort of hara-kiri.

Dear friend, whether you like it or not every moment of your existence… you are in the ‘present’ only and no need to further stress this ‘PRESENT’

My thoughts-

ON ‘PAST’

How can we forget our past or past events, be good or bad? If the events are good-nothing wrong with recollecting and feeling happy.

If the events are bad…maybe time to retrospect.

Why should one be denied of thinking of the past?

ON ‘FUTURE’

Now let us come to thoughts on the future.

Let us be realistic my friend.

‘Future’ is nothing but our HOPES. Why should one refuse to think of the future?

My friend if at all we continue to live despite all the hurdles we are facing…the only reason being our ‘hopes’ which sustain us to move forward.

ON ‘PRESENT’

Everyone is aware of  ‘present moments’ and no need to remind the same.

Because of the ‘present moment,’ everybody can plan their ‘future’ based on their ‘past’ experiences.

All of us are being alive at this moment. That is why I am writing this piece and you read it when you make your ‘presence’ to read the same.

This is the truth at this moment.

All of us already living in the ‘present moment’ and are attending to our specified jobs and responsibilities.

Depending on your mood at this particular ‘PRESNT MOMENT” either you are happy or unhappy, excited or drained, hot or cool….

Is it not so?

Then why go on gloating repeatedly about-‘Live in the present’ philosophy?

Message

“As long as we have MEMORIES, Yesterday remains,

And as long as we have ‘HOPE’ tomorrow awaits”  Unknown

Time is ripe for you to Change your view on  ‘LIVE IN PRESENT’

Feel free to express your thoughts.

Thank you.

Namaste 🙏🙏🙏

Thoughts Day

Mind & Heart- can they be good friends?

“Your mind can be your enemy or friend.

If you always follow your heart, your mind will feel neglected.

If you follow only your mind, your heart will never forgive you.

Never ignore your conscience, yet always be conscious of reason.

Make your heart and mind friends and you will have peace of mind throughout life’s seasons.”   

Suzy Kassem

Is it possible to maintain a good relationship between your mind and your heart?

I doubt.

What happens?

“The difference between your mind and heart,

Your mind tells you what is smart and 

Your heart tells you what you are going to do anyway” Unknown

This clearly tells you that if you follow your heart you lose your mind!

And if you follow your mind, your heart goes into attack mode!

Who is the actual winner?

“Our days are happier when we give people a bit of our heart, rather than a piece of our mind”  Unknown

And the lesson is…

“The struggle between what my mind wants to focus, what my heart is feeling and what my soul is going through is unexplained” Sajida Sheik

All of us are sailing in the same boat!

So just relax and do breathing exercises.

Don’t confuse your mind with these complicated thoughts and thus stress your heart! ❀

 

Thank you.

Namaste 🙏🙏🙏

“Be your own reason for happiness” Unknown

Do you want to be happy all the time?

There is a simple formula.

“A mathematical formula for happiness: Reality divided by Expectations. There were two ways to be happy: improve your reality or lower your expectations.”
Jodi Picoult

Thank you.

Pay Attention my friend

“Wisdom is not the product of thought.

The deep knowing that is wisdom arises through the simple act of giving someone or something your full attention. Attention is primordial intelligence, consciousness itself…It joins the perceiver and the perceived in a unifying field of awareness”

Eckhart Tolle

Do you know the simple secret of life?

“People will reveal who they are if you just pay attention.”
Germany Kent

The other secret of a successful life

“You prove to people that you don’t pay attention to their words when they see that you don’t remember what they tell you earlier.”
Israelmore Ayivor

Is this possible?

“Pay great attention to those who love you, and love those who hate you.”

Debasish Mridha

But in real life what happens commonly?

We ignore those who love us truly!

We die to get the attention of those, who ignore us!

 

Please share your thoughts.

Do you pay attention to things in which you are not interested?

 

 Thank you.

Namaste 🙏🙏🙏

“Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal”. From an Irish headstone”    Richard Puz

Do you believe that ‘Love’ truly hurts’?

What is your frank opinion my friend?

Are you the aggrieved party, always in matters of ‘love’?

Then read this.

What does everyone in general say?

“Everyone says Love hurts, Yes, you read it right.

But that is not true.

Loneliness hurts.

Rejection hurts.

Losing someone hurts.

Envy hurts.

Everyone gets these things confused with ‘Love’, but in reality ‘Love’ is the only thing in this world that covers up all pain and makes someone feel wonderful again.

Love is the only thing in this world that does not hurt”    Unknown

Are you aware of the Power of Love?

“Love is a cycle…

When you love, you feel you get hurt

When you get hurt, you hate

When you hate, you try to forget

When you try to forget, you start missing

When you start missing, you will eventually fall in ‘love’ again” Unknown

I am sure by now you have realised that we can’t survive without ‘love’ and love is a misunderstood 4 letter word!

Love never hurts….only our expectations do hurt us.

Please share your thoughts, my friend.

 

Thank you.

Namaste 🙏🙏🙏

Watch your thoughts!

“Overthinking leads to negative thoughts”  unknown

Warning!!

“You think about 60,000 thoughts a day. It’s up to you to make sure that you don’t use up 59,999 of them with negative and cynical thinking”  unknown

And it’s impossible to tame the mind of your negative thoughts.

Is it possible to find a person who never gets a negative thought!

The point I am stressing is, whatever may be the circumstances the human mind is programmed to look for negative thoughts first and foremost.

Humans proudly assert that they are always cautious, forgetting that these negative thoughts are responsible for their misery!

And it is impossible to detach yourself from negative thoughts.

And whatever advice you may come across on the internet about avoiding negative thoughts… may not help altogether.

“For many negative thinking is a habit, which over time becomes an addiction”  Peter McWilliams

Are you controlling your negative thoughts or are your negative thoughts controlling you?

Not a difficult question to answer my friend.

You are being controlled by your negative thoughts! Accept it.

Any formula to overcome this?

Yes. There is one

“The goal is not to get rid of all your negative thoughts, feelings and life situations. That is impossible.

The goal is to change your response to them.

To go so strong on the inside, that nothing on the outside can affect your inner wellness without your conscience permission”   Unknown

Please share your views and how to counter negative thoughts with positive ones?

Thank you.

Namaste 🙏🙏🙏

How much enough is enough?

We are humans and so there is no such thing called ‘Enough’ in our dictionary.

We always lead our life unsatisfied with what we already possess and want more and more.

We are unable to say enough even when our requirements are fully met.

After fulfilling our wishes and temptations, we jump to another.

Our wishes are never-ending.

We always feel something missing in our lives and yearn to get it at any cost and in the process losing your happiness.

And we don’t hesitate to blame the Almighty.

It is said it’s impossible to change this mindset of humans in these matters.

Why one is never content….I don’t have a ready answer.

Is any solution available?

“If you look at what you have in life, you’ll always have more,

If you look at what you don’t have in life, you’ll never have enough”

Oprah Winfrey

Thank you.

“If you don’t design your own life plan, chances are you’ll fall into someone else’s plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much.” Jim Rohn

Take control of your life, my friend

“The same boiling water that softens the potato hardens the egg. It’s what you are made of, not the circumstances”   unknown

Agree about this quote.

But in general what we are made up of?

We are made up of our mentality.

What is our mentality?

You know my friend. Don’t pretend.

We all love complaining.

“There will always be something to complain about. But you have a choice. 

You can complain about things you can’t control or you can control what you can control and let go of what you can’t.

You can focus on your problems or focus on getting better.

You can look for an excuse or you a look within and find your best”  Jon Gordon

Are you confused between complaining and criticizing?

No need my friend.

Complaining is an act of expression of dissatisfaction. You tend to vent your negative emotions, though you are aware that nothing can be achieved.

Criticism is associated with judgment. Better if it is done positively.

What happens if you are a chronic complainer?

Simple, either you spoil your health because of tensions you create or you get a bad name in the society.

“Complaints are like the clouds that produce no rain no matter how thick they gather. Never depend on your complaint thinking they are staircases. Drop that thing.”  Israelmore Ayivor

Stop complaining and whining.

Start enjoying your life, since nothing is under your control!

Thank you.

Namaste 🙏🙏🙏
