You want to be like no one else.
On the top.
To be someone who is revered by others.
Do this then: Think about people before thinking about your own selfish interests.
Why, you may think.
Because, the best way to a great life to live beyond your capacity is to have a great stock of blessings.
So few people provide blessings for anything bad inflicted by us to them.
The current times have the luxury of stopping and recording a TV show.
If we go back to a decade, family members used to fight over remote control of television. Even if someone had to walk up to the kitchen or to open the door, they’d carry their remote control along, so that the other members didn’t get a chance to change the channel.
People knew, back then, that the person with the remote control, owns the game.
Fast forward to today, how many of us hold the remote control of your happiness?
Not only that, they also blame someone else for taking away their happiness by not playing the channel they wanted to see.
It’s called budding resentment. If you want to dig out five more minutes to understand that, today’s podcast episode is a great way to explain that. Check it out here.
Today as I entered my room, I wondered if I was really happy.
In the process of earning money, in the process of figuring out life, in the process of understanding how things work, make sure happiness is your real currency.
If you are’t happy, you aren’t happy.
It’s that simple.
If you want to know how I chased my happiness from the place of insecurity, you may want to check out this video. It’s the most vulnerable I’ve ever been.
Most priceless asset is not real estate.
Not bitcoin (lol).
Not equity investment (okay, almost priceless).
Not even your life insurance policy. (Okay bro, grow up!)
The most priceless asset is your mood.
If you could do only one effort your entire life, make an investment to be in a great mood.
Because, the equation that usually follows is “words are theirs, mood downswing is mine,” which is a dangerous place to be.
If you ask yourself, who in reality, is teaching your mind?
If that’s you, and that’s inevitably you, you can change it. One who gets accustomed to keeping their mind clean, could never get into irritation. That’s the new Mt. Everest. For everyone, irrespective of who they are or what they do.
Yesterday was the first time in almost 3 years that I didn’t publish a blog.
Not because I got lazy, rather because Internet services were taken away in my hometown, where I was yesterday.
So what were the great things that came out of that massive Internet cut?
First and foremost, I didn’t have withdrawal symptoms on not being able to access the internet. That was something to be proud of.
Secondly, thinking about scheduling my blog posts one day in advance. It rules out the perils of anonymity.
What do you think?
As she walked out, I saw her walking in utter confidence; myself reduced down to nothingness as invisible as an atom.
The worst part was, she didn’t know she was the reason of it. I didn’t know myself, when did I give her that baton.
Yet here she was, marching her own path with pride. There I was, unable to understand how it happened.
Then, in an instant my intuition hit me and I got the answer.
Nothing happens by pure luck. By whatever, two, three or eight decades we have spent in this lifetime, what is carried along with us is the deeds we did and karmas we created in the past lives.
Nothing happens purely by chance.
Now if me reducing down to atom was a past karma, the good news is: I can create a whole new karma in the present. The greater news is: it does not have to be at the cost of creating a negative karma with that fellow human being again.
It does not have to be recreated like that. You can overwrite anything you want, any number of times, with your new karmas.
Today.
And rise up from the ashes to the greatest peaks without bringing anyone down.
