What Do You Want Out Of Life, And What Makes You Happy?
What Do You Want Out Of Life, And What Makes You Happy
?Do you realise that what happens to us happens for a reason, one thing leads to another, culminating in the fundamental law of cause and effect.
So instead of closing your mind into that cage of fears that you are carrying around, crying over all the heartaches from the past, those embarrassing situations and so called failures, treat them as your master teachers, and they will then become your tools, in both your self improvement and personal success.
One of my favourite films is Patch Adams, and watching this film will help you to improve in so many ways.
The story is about Hunter "Patch" Adams, a medical student who failed his medical board exams, and after months of suffering, melancholy, depression and suicide attempts, decided to seek personal medical care, and effectively booked himself into a psychiatric ward.
He spent many months in this hospital, which enabled him to meet many different people, really ill people at that, and associating with the catatonic, mentally retarded, and schizophrenic patients, he met them all during his stay in hospital.
But Patch found ways of dealing with his own illness, and then one day he came to his senses, and realized that he really needed to get back on track with his life, and that after all the ups and downs, and the pain he had already suffered, he still really did want to be a Doctor.
This positive attitude now brought him his own personal growth and ultimate success, but not just in his own life, but also, probably more importantly, improving the quality of the lives of those around him, i.e. his patients.
Was He Successful? Well he became the best doctor his country had known.
You may now be asking: "When is self improvement associated with success?"
Let me start right here with these following tips...
Get rid of the thinking and feeling that you are a failure, because you are definitely not, but remember, that others will not accept you as a person, especially if you cannot accept yourself?
When you are watching TV and see all the "beautiful people", don't get frustrated with yourself, there is more to you, than having the perfect abs, bust, legs, or figure, I am sure they have their own issues, beauty is in the eye of the beholder anyway.
Make your focus be of the inner you and the beauty contained within, and be always grateful.
When you meet people who feel down and low about themselves, help them up with words of encouragement, which will not only make them feel better, but it is really surprising just how uplifting it is for you and your attitude for the rest of then day.
We are all here on this earth to learn, and we will make many mistakes, and as the saying goes "If your not making mistakes, you are not doing anything", so just learn from them, and move on. Now...Today...
Always look for the next time and be cheerful about it, so be sure to make plenty of room for further self improvement, in all areas of your life.
It is also important to take things one step at a time, as you cannot expect the black sheep to turn into the goody two shoes overnight, but also keep in mind, that self improvement is a day to day process.
Self Improvement leads to internal core stability, self confidence, self appreciation and self esteem, which equals "SUCCESS IN WHATEVER YOU DO"
Therefore, it is critical that you establish meaningful and attainable goals, and remember it is the little things that you do, that can mean big things to others.
These little things could be as simple as patting someone on the back for something they have done, or just saying "Hello", or greeting someone "Good Morning" or telling Mrs. Jones something like "Hi, I love your outfit", because it is these simple things, that mean so much to others.
When we are grateful about things around us and other people, we then become special to them, as we radiate that inner beauty, which others love to be around.
When you are ready to go through the process of improving yourself, you will find that not everyone around you is prepared to change as well, because the world is a place where people of different values and attitude live, and sometimes even if you think you and your best friend like to do the same thing together most of the time, it could be that they are not ready for their own self improvement, and you end up leaving them behind in your thinking and attitude.
"Overnight Success", Is A Myth My Friend..
Be grateful for all things in your life in the present moment, as they were once things that you wished for, consciously or unconsciously.
One of my favourite quotes is "When the student is ready the teacher appears", and this has happened man times in my life.
Our teachers and the lessons we need to learn, come in, and from, many different guises, i.e. Our parents, teachers, friends, colleagues, office friends, neighbours ... they are all teaching us in one way or other.
Let me leave you with this last thought, in that when we open the door for personal self improvement, we significantly increase our chances to roar down the road to ultimate success ...
