Karma, what goes around comes around

How other people think and act will determine what they attract into their lives (their karma), your thoughts and actions will determine your Karma.

Cursing your enemies may sound like a fun thing to do; “May you get the runs on your wedding night.” or “may you get an itch you can’t reach, are two popular Irish curses. However, they’re your thoughts, and if you wish those things for somebody else, you’re really wishing them for yourself.

You’d be better off wishing for them to experience a wonderful, happy, and healthy life, and wishing for them to win a fortune every year they’re alive. Now, that’s something worth receiving.

How Karma works: If you work on the theory that your karmic force is an all-powerful 14-month-old baby, who doesn’t know right from wrong, positive from negative, good from evil and whose ability to understand language is almost non-existent. All they understand are images and emotions. That’s why the information you’re sending to your karmic force needs to be clear.

If you’re forever cursing people, your karmic force will guide you to find more people to curse. If you’re wishing happiness for people, it will look for people and events to bring more happiness into your life.

I’ll leave you with one final thought;
If you knew how powerful your thoughts and emotions are, you’d never concentrate on a negative one.

Nobody who continues to try can be considered a failure

by

attitude, Inspiration, Motivation, Self Improvement
Everybody who dreams of better days to come is successful because as Churchill is quoted to have said, “Success is going from failure to failure without losing your enthusiasm.” This means as long as you keep trying to improve the life you have today, you have achieved success.

Improving your life doesn’t necessarily mean you need more things in your life, it means you need to improve your attitude towards the life you already have. Allow me to explain.

A lot of people believe being a success means they need own the most expensive things money can buy but that’s just an illusion sold to people by sales people who want their hard earned money. Remember; any car will get you from A to B. Any roof will protect you from the weather. Any mobile phone which allows you to make and take calls, access the internet is good enough. If you think you need an apple on the back of it to make it work better; draw a picture of an apple on the back of the phone you’ve got.

Being a success means you get up every morning with a desire to accomplish something you value. You may not get it done that today, however, there’s always tomorrow because:

To dream of a better tomorrow is life’s purpose. It could be a dream of winning the lottery or identifying a cure for cancer, however, it really doesn’t matter as long as it’s a dream worth living.

Peace is a goal everybody should want to achieve

by

attitude, Inspiration, life, Self Improvement
Peace is a goal everybody should want to achieve and one day, you will find peace within you, that’s the day the whole world will finally make sense, this will happen for one reason and only one reason, you will stop trying to understand other people’s actions and words.

Once you accept other people’s actions and words, their behaviour will stop complicating your life. It doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll like them any more than you do today, it just means their behaviour will not surprise or unsettle you.

The reason human behaviour is so difficult to understand is; human goals and the behaviour required to reach them are constantly changing.

Scientists have been studying human behaviour for years with limited success. The most successful theory is, survival of the fittest or as Darwin so eloquently put it, the theory of evolution, however, as we know; today’s fittest may be tomorrow’s weak link. A good example of this is, the biggest and best hunter in today’s society hasn’t got the same appeal as he had in our caveman days.

If scientists can’t determine what accurately drives behaviour, what chance do we have? This leaves us with two options, we can continue to complicated our lives by trying to understand why people do as they do, or we can concentrate on trying to understand ourselves where we have all the information we need to find peace? I think the answer is easy, but it’s a choice everybody will have to make for themselves.

I’ll leave you with one of my favourite quotes; “Other people do not have to change for us to experience peace of mind.” ~Gerald Jampolsky.

Stop expecting people to be better than they are

by

attitude, Inspiration, Motivation, Self Improvement, Uncategorized
“When you stop expecting people to be perfect, you can like them for who they are.” ~Donald Miller.

“I’m not in this world to live up to your expectations and you’re not in this world to live up to mine.” ~Bruce Lee.

“You can’t expect people to be like you.” ~Being Erica

Some of you will be surprised to know some people act in a certain way because they believe that’s how somebody like them is expected to act. That reminds of the following quote: “All the world’s a stage,. And all the men and women merely players.” ~William Shakespeare

In the same way, our expectations of people often prevent us from seeing them for who they really are too, for example, you expect doctors to look and behave like doctors, but they are only men and women; and just like you, who have their own expectations of how they should act and how patients should behave, however, your expectations of how Presidents and Prime Ministers should behave may be changing around now.

Everything you know about somebody creates expectations, however, if you can move past this point and just allow people to show you who they are every day, you will be more accepting of them because people are capable of changing if you’re open to seeing change. I’ll leave you with one final thought;

Everybody’s idea of doing the right thing is different. “Live and let live.” ~you can’t change them anyway.

Reward yourself for every action you take to improve your quality of life

by

attitude, life, life lessons
Everybody loves rewards; if you reward yourself every time you do something that improves your quality of life, your mind will always look for things it finds pleasurable. If you do something that brings about stress and anxiety, your mind will find a way to stop you, this normally involves pain.

Your body and mind works best when they work together; your decision is, do you want pain or pleasure? Most people choose pleasure, however, not all, some people choose to complain about things they cannot control or things they will not change.

Remember: “Some people dream of a happy life, other people allow themselves to be happy.”
