You’ll end up really disappointed if you think people will do for you as you do for them. Not everyone has the same heart as you.

Be yourself no matter what. Some will adore you and some will hate everything about you. But who cares? It’s your life. Make the most of it.

This is your reminder that it's okay if you don't have it all figured out. The unknown doesn't have to be a scary place. Trust that everything will work out no matter what. You are always divinely guided. 🙏🏻✨

The present moment is sometimes unacceptable, unpleasant, or awful.
It is as it is. Observe how the mind labels it and how this labeling process, this continuous sitting in judgment, creates pain and unhappiness. By watching the mechanics of the mind, you step out of its resistance patterns, and you can then allow the present moment to be. This will give you a taste of the state of inner freedom
from external conditions, the state of true inner peace. Then see what happens, and take action if necessary or possible.
Accept - then act. Whatever the present moment contains, accept it as if you had chosen it. Always work with it, not against it. Make it your friend and ally, not your enemy. This will miraculously transform your whole life.

13. Practice patience Periods : Life itself is a classroom and patience is the curriculum. Start with determination to be patient for just 5 minutes(not when alone, when disturbances are more). It is a quality which feeds on itself. It provides perspective. Present challenge is not
“life or death” situation, but a minor obstacle to be dealt with.
14. Be The First One To Reach Out: After some fight be the first one to make a move. It is good for all. It also brings peace.
15. Ask: Will this matter a Year From Now : Many a times small things irritate us too much. It is good to ask this question at such moments. It could be a mistake at home or office, a setback, a lost watch/wallet, sickness, arguments etc.

EMPOWERING PEOPLE
“Choose to be in close proximity to people who are empowering, who appeal to your sense of connection to intention, who see the greatness in you, who feel connected to God, who live a life that gives evidence that Spirit has found celebration through them.” This sentiment is echoed throughout the wisdom of all the great teachers.
From Rumi (see Notes): “Stay with friends who support you in these. Talk with them about sacred texts, and how you are doing, and how they are doing, and keep your practices together.”
To Susan Jeffers in her great (!) book Feel the Fear… And Do it Anyway: “It is amazingly empowering to have the support of a strong, motivated, and inspirational group of people.
”So… Who inspires you the most?
How much time are you spending with them?
Are you spending time with people who bring you down?
Who don’t recognize your potential ?

16. Surrender to the Fact That Life Isn’t fair: We all complain about this almost every day and lose of our peace of mind. Even if we don’t understand why, there is a purpose in it. If we simply accept that this is how it is and will always be, then you are at peace.
17. Allow Yourself To Be Bored: Our mind likes continuous excitement. However, our system is not designed for that. If we learn to welcome such breaks of doing nothing. We will be peaceful, relaxed and recharged, coming back stronger, shaper, more focussed and creative.

TRUE NOBILITY
“True nobility isn’t about being better than someone else. It’s about being better than you used to be.”
Wow. So true.
“Don’t bother just to be better than your contemporaries or predecessors. Try to be better than yourself.”
Don’t compete. Come from your soul and CREATE.Be you. The best you imaginable.

" HOW YOU ARE TREATED IS FAR MORE IMPORTANT THAN HOW MUCH YOU LOVE SOMEONE 🤔❕"
○ The way in which we were treated is so much more important than how much we love somebody else because when you are infatuated with somebody else in a way you naive because you dont have a clear view, you dont have a clear perspective you are wearing the lens of love, you are wearing the lens of tenderness, you are wearing the lense of lust ... and when you are viewing friendships and relationships from this point of view that's almost blinding,
● we fail to recognize the red flag
● we fail to recognize the mistreatment
● we fail to recognize the disrespect
......So take off those glasses find yourself a new pair
♡ Clear the old lens and allow yourself to see the situations for what they are and NOT for what you hope them to be ❕

18. Avoid Stress Build up: When you feel things are getting out of control, and you feel stressed up, take a few deep breaths, and go out for a short walk. If you can’t go out of the office, at least get out of the place of action, and just take a coffee or washroom break. Just wash your face, or hum a tune if you can, or listen to some soothing music, or just relax in a chair as if you are taking a few minutes nap. When stress is small it is easy to manage and control. Once it gathers momentum, it is difficult to stop.
19. Once a Week Write A heartfelt Letter: It need not be to a relation, friend, or a colleague. It can be to anyone who has +vely influenced you. Since the letter is not to be posted, you need not worry about the style. The expressed feelings are important. You will enjoy this habit. It is an expression of gratitude, and the more we do it, the more we benefit.
