SECRETS OF HAPPINESS AND SUCCESS REVEALED


Dear Readers,

 

Greetings of the day!

 

Let me share with you, some of the secrets, if followed would bring happiness to everyone.

 

During your lifetime, you might have made thousands of different goals. Just think about it. How many goals have you made for yourself in the past year?

 

Let me tell you that all of these goals will fall into one of the following four basic categories. Everything you do is an attempt to enhance the quality of your life in one or more of these areas.

 

The First Category

 

The first category of the goals is your desire for happy relationships with your near and dear ones. You want to love and be loved by others. You want to have a happy and harmonious life at home. You want to get along well with the people around you, and you want to earn the respect of the people you respect. Your involvement in social and community affairs results from your desire to have happy interactions with others and to make a contribution to the society you live in.

 

Second Category

 

The second category of your goals is related to enjoyment of your work. This includes your desire for interesting and challenging work atmosphere, irrespective of the field, where you work. You want to make a good living, of course, but more than that, you want to really enjoy your occupation or profession. The very best times of your life are when you are completely absorbed in your work.

 

Third Category

 

The third category is your desire for financial independence. You want to be free from worries about money. You want to have enough deposit and surplus funds in the bank so that you can make decisions without counting your pennies. You want to achieve a certain financial status so that you can retire in comfort and never have to be concerned about whether or not you have enough money to support your lifestyle. Financial independence frees you from poverty and a need to depend upon others for your livelihood. If you save and invest regularly throughout your working life, you will eventually reach the point where you will never have to work again.

 

Fourth Category

 

I am sure that the fourth and final category is your desire for good health, to be free of pain and illness and to have a continuous flow of energy and feelings of well-being. In fact, your health is so central to your life that you take it for granted until something happens to disrupt it.

 

 

SECRET for Achieving All GOALS

 

The secret to fulfill all of the basic desires is to attain complete Peace of Mind. Peace of mind is essential for every one of you. The greater is your peace of mind, the more relaxed and positive you remain, the less stress you suffer, better is your overall health.

 

Do you know that the more peace of mind you have, the better are your relationships with your near and dears. You become more optimistic, friendly and confident with everyone in your life. When you feel good about yourself inside, you do your work better and take more pride in it. You are a better boss and coworker at your desk. And the greater is your overall peace of mind, the more likely you are to earn a good living. This would lead to saving regularly for the future and ultimately achieving financial independence.

 

How to Achieve

 

You will be willing to know how to achieve Peace of mind. Life is very much a study of attention. Whatever you dwell upon and think about grows and expands in your life. The more you pay attention to your relationships, the quality and quantity of your work, your finances and your health, the better they will become and the happier you will be. Positive thinking is a must to achieve peace of mind to achieve all your goals and to fulfill your desires.

 

I suggest you to start immediately the followings steps to achieve the peace of mind:

 

  • First step is to daily spend some time, may be two to three minutes, on a regular basis to think about what would make you really happy in each of the four areas.
     
  • Second step is to set specific, measurable goals for improvement in your relationships, your health, your work and your finances. If you feel, you may write them down and put the paper on your writing table, so that you can see them daily.
     
  • Third step is to resolve to do something every day to increase the quality of some area of your life - and then keep your resolution.

 

May the Great Almighty be with you and help you get happiness and success in your life.

 

With blessings and Best Wishes,

How to Get Inner Peace


Dear Readers,



Greetings of the day!

 

Let me ask you some questions? Do you find daily that your life is filled with stress? Does it seem as if there is always something happening that encompasses your entire attention, and therefore drains positive energy from you?

 

Your answers to my questions would most probably be in affirmative. You all might have learnt by now that as our society grows more and more complex; finding true inner peace becomes more difficult. It is just like trying to find an oasis in the desert.

 

I, therefore, thought it might be helpful for you to share with you some of the methods that I use in my life to experience inner peace and disconnect from my hectic daily routine.

 

First Step:

 

The first step for inner peace is to accept what it is. There is only so much you can affect. What you cannot change, what you cannot influence, need not concern you. I have noticed with so many people that they focus and linger on things they have no control over. The major point here is why worry about something that all the worrying in the world will not change? Why you should care about what other people think of you when you are not even sure what it is they are actually thinking?

 

Second Step:

 

Second step is quieting your mind. Let me assure you that meditation is great way of quieting the mind. It is very important activity that can change your entire life. However, not everyone wants to meditate or knows how to do it. Meditating for just 10 minutes a day can have an enormous impact in all areas of your life. If you have a lot on your mind and feel as if your thoughts are driving you crazy, meditation can help you find inner peace. Meditating is not tough, rather it is very easy. To quiet the mind simply close everything, sit back, shut your eyes and you should clear your mind of every single thought. Focus on the emptiness. You will be surprised what a mere 10 minutes of quieting the mind can do to turn things around for you. Is it not very easy?

 

Third Step:

 

The next step, I would advise is to spend your time in nature. You would agree that you spend so much time confined in buildings either at work or at home that you have forgotten where you come from. It is natural for us to be in nature, and this is why it feels so good and it is so peaceful when you take a walk in a park, cycle on a trail in the forest or stand watching the waves roll in at the beach. Watching nature is stillness, observing nature nurtures us. Spending time with nature will help you naturally attune to the rhythm of the seasons and the vibration of mother earth.

 

Fourth Step:

 

Now let us learn the power of a smile. Whenever you laugh or smile, something happens on a chemical level to make you feel better, and stress and negativity are prevented from entering your psyche. Laughter yoga is a brilliant tool to use as a pattern interrupt. You will observe that a simple smile can make such a difference. You will quickly realize that inner peace finds its way much more easily to you when you smile and take yourself lightly.

 

Fifth Step:

 

Next step is to see the BIG picture of everything. You will agree that you are so consumed within your own problems that you can no longer see the wood from the trees. It's helpful to remind ourselves how big the world is. Take a moment and read up about some other countries, cultures or religions. Be aware that the world does not revolve around your problems. On hearing about a tsunami or an earthquake killing thousands of people it puts my small cares and worries into perspective. My problems aren't really "problems". Looking beyond ourselves is very important in finding inner peace.

 

Sixth Step:

 

Next step to get the inner peace is to Care about others, but don't become a rescuer. Inner peace is hard to find when being self-consumed and only worrying about your own needs and wants. When you begin to genuinely care about other people, miracles happen. However, choose to be empathetic, not compassionate. Empathy is putting yourself in someone else's shoes and treating them as you would wish to be treated. It brings with it infinite patience and grace. Compassion can easily turn into rescuer behaviour; it's insidious and can lead to trying to fix someone, which apart from being the height of arrogance, can also distract you from your own inner peace. An act of random kindness and goodwill allows you to ease your way towards inner peace.

 

Seventh Step:

 

On the ladder of getting inner peace is to embrace hope. Hope is what lightens your life. With hope you always have a path towards inner peace. Whenever you get stressed out and overwhelmed within your own life, you forget that hope. You forget that the sun always shines after a rainy day, and that this is merely a bump in the road. With hope, I know that whatever is seemingly terrible is only temporary and that soon enough, things will be just great. This lifts off all of that negativity and gross positive energy from my entire being, and I feel in tune instantly.

 

Eighth Step:

 

Learn to commit to yourself. You will agree that one thing that provides you with much stress in life is the fact that you always worry about not having all the answers. Just accepting that you do not know everything and that you are open to perpetual learning is a tremendous step to take towards achieving inner peace. I find great joy in learning all kinds of things, and just being aware that I am growing as a person each and every day provides me with great feelings of inner peace. Accept that life is one big journey of never-ending learning and you will find yourself closer to experiencing true inner peace.

 

Last Step:

 

Last step on the ladder for getting Inner Peace is to live in the here and now, i.e. in PRESENT. Most of the time, what you worry about is relating to something either in the past, or something that hasn't happened. Living in the here and now erases all such thoughts. Why worry about something in the past that you cannot change? Why worry about something that you are not even sure will happen or not? You know that past is history, future is mystery and PRESENT is GIFT. My advice, therefore, to you is to live in PRESENT.

 

May you be blessed with Real Long Lasting Inner Peace!


With Best wishes and blessings

How to Live and Enjoy the Present Moment



Dear Readers,

 

Greetings of the day!

 

All of you know that we convince ourselves that life will be better once we finish our education, get a job or settle in business,  are married, have a baby, then another. After fulfilling all these wishes, we get frustrated because our children are not old enough and that all will be well when they are older. Then we are frustrated because they reach adolescence and we must deal with them.


Thereafter, we convince ourselves that surely we will be happier when they grow out of the teen years.

 

We tell ourselves that our life will be better when our spouse gets his/her act together, when we have a good house, nice car, when we can take a vacation, when we finally retire.

 

Let me tell you the truth that there is no better time to be happy than right now.

 

If not, then when?

 

You all know that your life is always full of challenges. It is better to admit as much and to decide to be happy in spite of it all. For the longest time, it seemed that life, the REAL LIFE was about to start. But there was always some obstacle along the way, an ordeal to get through, some work to be finished, some time to be given, a bill to be paid. Then life would start.

 

I finally came to understand that those obstacles were life, but how many of us faced these challenges/obstacles with happiness?

 

This point of view helped me to see that there is not any road to happiness.

 

Finally, I came to know that Happiness Is the road to live a real life.

 

My suggestion, therefore, to you would be enjoy every moment.

 

Stop waiting for school to end, for a return to school, to lose ten Dollars, to gain ten Dollars, for work to begin, to get married, for Friday evening, for Sunday morning, waiting for a new car, for your mortgage to be paid off, for spring, for summer, for fall, for winter, for the first or the fifteenth of the month, for your song to be played on the radio, to die, to be reborn… before deciding to be happy.

 

Please remember that Happiness is a voyage, not a destination.

 

There is no better time to be happy than… Now And The Present!
As you know that the Past Is History, Future Is Mystery and Present Is Gift.


With Best Wishes and Blessings,
