 These short and crisp insights are articulated to enlighten your soul, brighten your spirit and transcend your limitations.
1. Listen to your pain:
Does pain speak? Our frowning eye-brows lift themselves a bit more! But pain speaks so softly in our ears - Learn, Learn.
We don't realize what we're middle of, because we're middle of it. When you're in pain, have you ever loved your disappointments, setbacks, hurdles? I guess no! Because they make us uncomfortable.
But becoming uncomfortable is the beginning of progress. When you are feeling uncomfortable, that moment only you're stepping out of your comfort zone and start the process of growth. If you go away from discomfort, you're just going away from growth. Pain is growth if we listen to it and apply the learning in our life. Pain is our teacher who guides us to go beyond our mundane stories of ordinariness and live in the zone of excellence.
Are you ready to listen to your pain?
| 2. Deal with criticism effectively:
A person who is criticizing you is really not criticizing you, rather he is trying to force his opinion on you. Obviously, I'm talking about destructive criticism which is being focused directly on the person, not on his behavior. When a person criticizes you and tries to take control over you, simply say - Thank you for sharing. But, my opinion of my work is not same as you think, though I know I can improve, still I'm happy with myself.
Criticism can take over you when you will allow it. If you will refuse to think unworthy thoughts about yourself, there is no one who can make you feel down. Because, a critic defines himself, not you, by his criticism.
| 3. Don't give up on you:
Anyone can choose to give up on you, on your dreams. If you're getting affected by that you're simply declaring that - 'Your opinion of me is more important than my opinion of myself.' You're worthy, because you say it and you believe it. No one can make you feel worthy. When I'm writing this message almost everyday, everyone doesn't like it, everyone doesn't read it, everyone doesn't reply me. But, I didn't give up. Why? Because, first I'm doing this for myself and for my purpose. Then for you all.
If I don't have water in my jug, how can I meet up your thirst? Never, ever give up on yourself, no matter how lousy situations you need to pass through. Because you and me both know, you are the most important person to yourself.
| 4. Sing the song you're here to sing:
Most of us hide our song in our heart till death. We do all the other things, but most of the time, never dare to step ahead and sing our deepest, intimate song we're here to sing.
 We all give reasons and explanations about why we couldn't sing:
....I couldn't do it because I had so much of responsibility on my shoulder....
.....I couldn't do it because everyone expected me to be something different.....
....I didn't do it because I thought it's too risky to go for it.....
and on and on and on....
Do you have one? If you have, please postpone that for a moment and think yourself leaning on your death-bed pushing hard to take your last few breaths and feeling empty inside as you didn't take the risk you must take.
Let me tell you what risk is. Risk doesn't exist in this world. Risk is just your evaluation of any event. If you're scared for an event so that you can sacrifice your whole life, then just allow yourself to do just that.
If not, stand up and sing your song. Don't let your knees do the work of your legs for your whole life. Be brave and gift your song to the world. If you don't, you will betray yourself and as a result you will betray the whole world which couldn't be better because you didn't sing your song for your entire life.
Ponder a bit about this idea.

5. Happiness is the way:
Just stop searching happiness. And stop chasing after anything. Happiness is not something you find, happiness is within you. You are happiness.
Happy people don't need to chase after happiness, because they know happiness is not a reason or effect, it's just there, no matter what happens.
Promise yourself today to be happy. The more you will feel the happiness inside, it will expand within you. And soon you will experience the beauty of it outside.
Be happy...Love everyone....God bless you:)
| 6. You'll not be understood every time by everyone:
Time goes by. We change. Sometimes so fast, sometimes not so quickly as time. But every time what we say or do expands some people and contracts some other.
 Whatever we say or do, if it's for appeasing people or seeking approval from them, then by doing this activity or by abstaining ourselves from doing it, we're victimizing our own self.
You'll not be understood all the time and that's okay. You don't need to prove anything to anyone. Sometimes your concern will be perceived as showing off, sometimes your care will be taking the nature of oiling. But the truth of the matter is, whatever you say or do, its yours.
In this age of conformity, people love to be in the safest side. They don't want to make a scene, even if their hearts are burning. But, I and you, both know, we're not here to conform. We're here to say - I'm what I'm. And that's fine with me. We're here to do our dreams and to transcend the limitations of the society which is pulling us to conform.
If today, tomorrow, any day, any time, any person point fingers on you and say - I really don't understand you, ask yourself what your heart is saying. If it's saying you're not wrong in any way, just whisper to your fearful four year old - 'I am what I am. And that's okay for me.'
Be happy...love everyone...God bless you:)
| 7. Prescriptions for becoming a no limit person:
1. Focus on your thinking. What thoughts you allow yourself to create on regular basis. The best way to do that not to judge every thought you create rather to notice the feeling every 15 minutes.
2. Don't limit yourself by your ego and form. Your ego is what is stopping you to be the 'real you.'
3. Don't judge anyone. By judging someone you're not describing his/her weaknesses rather you're defining yourself.
4. Practice radical humility. Everything you have right now is just the gift of life which can be taken away anytime. Remember a tree with loads of fruits. It always bends down toward earth. Think what will happen if it refuses to do so.
5. Appreciate all the way of things and people. Know they all are your teachers guiding you on your own spiritual path. Learn from your each experience and from your every teacher.
6. We say - When we'll see it, we'll believe it. Change that all together and say - When we'll believe it, we'll see it, because this is what happens every time, no exception.
7. Know that what you notice that is not you. You're the noticer who notices your way of doing things.
8. Don't fight. Take the path of least resistance. The more you will resist, it will persist.
9. Detach yourself from all that you think you own. You own nothing. In the final analysis, it's not between you and everything or everyone, rather it's between you and God.
10. Be kind and love everyone without any judgment of race, sex, age, religion. Love is what you sow as a seed, not for the other person, but for your own self.
These are the 10 ways of becoming a no-limit person.
| 8. Let go of all:
● Let go of all the possessions you think as your own.
They're not yours, they're just choosing you to serve for now.
 ● Let go of all the people you believe as your own.
They're not your own, they're just the part of a big dream created by God.
● Let go of all the past traumas and future apprehensions.
They're not your own, they're teaching you your inability to live in the present.
● Let go of all the burden of unnecessary guilt and victimized habit you carry.
They're not your own. They're the tool to teach you new dimension of looking at things.
● Let go of the way you look, or the way you perceive your form.
They're not your own. They're just the 1% of what you truly are.
● Let go of every sadness and suffering that prevent you from your dream life.
They're not your own. They're the choices you make everyday to stop yourself from getting over them.
● Let go of the dominance and boasting you show up by behaving people with rudeness.
They're not your own. They're the list of possessions you want to show off who don't have them right now.
● Let go of all the fears and insecurities in life.
They're not your own. They're the speakers of your comfort zone from where you need to make a leap.
● Let go of the dependence on the daily tip I send you.
They're not your own. They're just the warehouse of words stored in your inbox if you refuse to apply them.
Be happy always....love everyone...God bless you:)
| 9. Learn to detach:
Life's sufferings stem from the belief that you own something or someone and to try to change those or them.
Why this happens?
When you start to believe that this person or this thing belongs to you, life comes to teach you that they're not yours, they're just part of one big dream which we call life.
How to deal with that?
 I believe that detachment is the best lesson we can learn in our living world. Detachment doesn't mean you need to sacrifice everything you use as tools to provide you some sort of benefits. Detachment means using those things and at the same time not getting bothered over their loss or something.
Now, how to use this principle in your relationship?
When you feel that your spouse really doesn't understand you all the time though you'll not be understood all the time), stop that process of thinking bad or hurt about that and affirm to yourself that s/he is not your own. S/he is just part of the bigger play that is being directed by the greater force than ourselves.
At the starting point, it's very tough to do as we're always attached to something or someone so deeply that we can't think our life without that thing or that person. But keeping this thought stored in your mind means you're victimizing yourself.
Detach yourself from everything and see the results.
Be happy forever...God bless you:)
| 10. Getting angry with someone or something tells something about you:
First, it's all about you, not about that person or that thing.
Second, whenever you're getting angry, you're being affected by someone's behavior or some sort of circumstances.
Third, as you're affected by the outer reality of your life, you're giving your power away to that person or that circumstance.
Fourth, you're not able to accept what is. When you're not able to accept what is there you're trying to change it and when you're trying to change the other, you are unconsciously choosing sufferings.
Fifth, when you don't know that you're suffering for being unable to change the outer reality, you're focusing more on suffering and less on what's going great in your life. What you focus on expands. So you attract more of circumstances and people of that kind and attract more sufferings.
Getting angry is easy. But when you will ponder deeply the above insights, will you try anger ever again?
Be well...love everyone....God bless you:)
| 11. How to find God:
When no one is there in the dark night, go inside, you will find God.
When time is hard and you are sensing weakness creeping in you, go inside, you will find God.
When you are holding the pain of discouragement and you think yourself as 'not at all worthy', go inside, you will find God.
When you're laughing like a baby in inner bliss and the tears of joy overflow your eyes, you will find God.
When your mom comes to you and caresses your hair with love and affection, you will find God.
When you put your hands together to the almighty and you feel lighter by sharing your burden with Him, you will find God.
Love God as if He is your own. He is your guiding light. If you will seek, you will receive :)
Be happy...God bless you all:)
| 12. Against and For:
 How many times we go against life everyday? Going against life simply means not able to accept what's there just in front of us. It may be someone's behavior toward us or a mild argument with a colleague or the unexpected result of exam or the way a project is progressing. We constantly try to fix the problem and problem expands its horizon.
But why it happens?
What we focus on expands. When we focus on what's not working in our life, life will present us more of it. When we go against something or the other, life will prove that true for us.
Now why we go against things the way they are? This is because we all suffer from deficiency syndrome. We believe right now we're deficient. If certain events will go like the way we want, then we will become sufficient. This principle alone propels us to go against the way of life. When we go against, we expand the 'go-against-horizon.'
Stop right now. Instead of going against something, go for something. Stand for the cause you believe in, live for the purpose you're here to pursue, go for the dream you've held deep down of you. And stop complaining and blaming about how things are not working in your life. Because they are also indicating life what you want for yourself.
And soon you will begin to see the difference when your entire focus will shift toward 'for' instead of 'against.'
Love everyone. Be well....God bless you:)
| 13. You’re not your form:
We all are connected through divinity. From outside we seem like different, but inside we are all divine extension of God.
Our form is just 1 percent of what we are. We are much more than our form. The apparent limitations of our form make us believe that we're limited. But think about your thoughts. They can go anywhere, anytime without any boundaries or limitations.
By sitting here right now, you can go to your past, your future, your parents, your friends and relatives. And at the same time, when you think you're limited that is also just a thought.
When you differentiate a person from you on the basis of gender, cast, race, religion you put limitations on your divine path. By judging a person, you're not harming anyone, but thus you define yourself.
Go beyond your form. Connect to all without judgment and feel the one-song in each of you. Then you will begin to realize the path of no limit.
God bless you always....Be happy :)
| 14. Living in the moment:
As I'm going through life, I'm learning the life more closely. As more and more I'm getting away from capturing the moments and trying to be in the moment, life is coming closer to me.
 Worry, danger, fear, jealousy are just the effects of not living in the moment. As I cannot live the past now, only I can remember it and in the same way as I cannot capture my future in this current flow of life, only I can anticipate it, I now put myself in 'let go' stage.
I am not trying to brag about me, rather I'm learning the peaceful way to live life which is obviously with the flow, not against it.
I seek to give thanks to all of you who take time everyday to read our daily insight, sharing and way of living. And I appreciate the decisions of all of those also who don't like our way of sending tips, you're those who make us believe how much we need to do more. Thanks so much for all your gestures of kindness and cooperativeness.
God bless you all....Be happy :)
| 15. 3 questions to overcome procrastination:
I'm going to share with you all, the three powerful questions which have altered my thinking pattern drastically and made me capable of managing my time more effectively than ever before.
When you seem to procrastinate, I urge to sit with a pen and paper. Ask yourself these three questions and write down the answers -
1. Why I'm feeling like not doing it?
2. How much time it will take to complete the task?
3. If I will do it for 5 minutes, how will I feel then?
Pen down the answers of the above three questions and see your life soar.
Why?
Because, if you can overcome the habit of putting things off, you will become capable of far more than you ever expect of you.
I humbly request you to do this exercise. You will surely know, why I'm saying after completing the exercise.
God bless you all:)
| 16. Are you listening?
I humbly request you to ask yourself this very question - Am I listening? Am I listening to my inner self? Am I listening to the others who love to share their experiences with me?
 Really, are you listening? I fiercely believe that listening starts off by listening to our inner self. What we don't have we can't give it away.
To listen to others calmly, patiently first we need to listen to our own heart. When we will be able to do that, listening to persons around us will be much easier.
How? Here's how.
Listening is not hearing the words we use, but to understand the blanks in between.
If you're not able to apprehend what your heart speaks in silence, how will you possibly be able to know what's there in someone's heart?
Think about this idea.
| 17. Be in silence:
There are only one powerful force in this world which is indivisible. You can call him God or your higher consciousness or your subconscious mind or your soul or spirit.
And that power resides only in silence. How can we say that?
Divide the super-power. What will you get? Only super-power. Because our divinity can't be divided.
Divide the silence. What will you get? More silence.
I'm typing these words by pushing my hands from silence toward key-board and the sound and printing the keys are making is all in silence.
Everyday, I urge you to invest some time alone, in the silence. You can practice meditation or anything else.
Because the more silence you will feel inside of you, the more you will be able to connect to the super-power.
God bless you all :)
| 18. A powerful question:
We’ll be illuminating on a special question. The question which taught me to think differently is a very powerful one. It enabled me to live for my purpose and to remain on the track.
This is the question for you.
'How do you live your life, as an acquirer or a giver?'
Think about the above question. Don't just ponder, I urge you to write down how you have led your path? How many lives you have touched? How many stuffs you have given away?
I have learned this lesson very hard way. This is the opportunity for you to learn and grow.
Just give, don't give back.
Stay blessed:)
|  19. Surrender to God:
This is my personal experience. When I surrender my entire being to my higher consciousness/God, everything happens on its own.
As far as I know, there is a greater power than us in this world who is taking care of every human being and every tiniest thing. Our part is just to surrender. And let it go.
I just request you to surrender your thoughts, actions, beliefs, words and everything you have to the Almighty. Then see the magic. I can say to you that your life will never be same again.
God bless you:)
| 20. How to practice:
Practicing is a skill. Here, I want to share two things which prevent us from doing effective practicing.
These two concepts have stopped you a lot of time to do whatever you wanted to do, to acquire the skill you sought after for a long time. Here's the two concepts -
(1) When we start the process of practicing we think we need to be perfect in the skill/job which we begin to practice.
(2) We think we need to do the job forever.
Here's the catch. You don't need to think in the above way now on. What to do then? Two things.
(1) Start imperfectly without even thinking about getting perfect. Because perfection doesn't exist. And practice certainly doesn't make you perfect, it just makes improvement. So no point in thinking about being perfect.
(2) You don't need to do it forever. Just take a challenge. Take 14 days to do the job you intend to do. Don't miss any day. Do it daily. And after 14 days if you don't like the result stop doing it. It's so simple.
So, why are waiting for. Just practice:)
God bless you:) |
