 Quality of a successful person- Easy Busy and Constructive Cool

The fragrance of flowers does not go against the flow of wind; but the perfume of virtues spreads in all directions.

Acharya Shri Ram

I will be calmly active, actively calm. I will not become lazy and mentally ossified. Nor will I be overactive, able to earn money but unable to enjoy life. I will meditate regularly to maintain true balance.

An average person feels happy in response to happy events and miserable in the face of sad events. Such a person is tossed by the tides of the external world, and happiness becomes purely accidental. To attain tranquility, you must learn not to be influenced by external circumstances. That is the only way to find the state of stillness within. Once you know how to remain still, you can study both the external and the internal worlds.  

YOUR DESTINY

                                    You are what your deep driving desire is.

  As your deep driving desire is, so is your will

      As your will is, so is your deed.

            As your dead is, so is your destiny

 

An outstanding and fantastic message for life time-

   You will definitely succeed in your life if you follow all the advices that you give to others.

If you possess health and wealth, but have trouble with everybody (including yourself), yours is not a successful life. Existence become futile if you cannot find happiness.

When wealth is lost, you have lost a little;

When health is lost, you have lost something of more consequence;

When peace of mind is lost, you have lost the highest treasure.

Success should be measured by the yardstick of happiness; by your ability to remain in peaceful harmony with cosmic laws. Success is not rightly measured by the worldly standards of wealth, prestige, and power. None of these best happiness unless they are rightly used. To use them rightly, one must possess wisdom and love for God and men.

Happiness depends to some extent upon external conditions, but chiefly upon mental attitudes. In order to be happy one should have good health, a well balanced mind, a prosperous life, the right work, a thankful heart, and, above all, wisdom and knowledge of God. Do not make unhappiness a chronic habit, thereby afflicting yourself and your associates. Do not wait for your circumstances to change, thinking falsely that in them lies the trouble. A strong determination to be happy will help you. That power to be happy comes through meditation.

There are always two forces warring against each other within us. One force tells us to do the things we should not do; and the other urges us to do the things we should do, the things that seem difficult. One voice is that of evil, and the other is that of good, or God.

Through difficult daily lessons you will sometime see clearly that bad habits nourish the tree of unending material desires, while good habits nourish the tree of spiritual aspirations. More and more you should concentrate your efforts on successfully maturing the spiritual tree, that you may someday gather the ripe fruit of Self-realization.

If you are able to free yourself from all kind of bad habits, and if you are able to do good because you want to do good and not merely because evil brings sorrow, then you are truly progressing in Spirit.

It is only when you discard your bad habits that you are really a free man.

1. Always follow the righteous path, and obey the rules so that you could be fearless and controller of your destiny. A guilty person always feels restless even with the greatest of comforts and wealth.

Fear Exhausts Life Energy

The human brain is a storehouse of life energy. This energy is constantly employed in muscular movements; in the working of the heart, lungs, and diaphragm; in cellular metabolism and chemicalization of blood; and in carrying on the work of the telephonic sensory motor system (the nerves). Besides this, a tremendous amount of life energy is required in all processes of thought, emotion, and will.

Fear exhausts life energy; it is one of the greatest enemies of dynamic will power. Fear causes the life force that ordinarily flows steadily through the nerves to be squeezed out, and the nerves themselves to become as though paralyzed; the vitality of the whole body is lowered. Fear doesn't help you to get away from the object of fear; it only weakens your will power. Fear causes the brain to send an inhibiting message to all bodily organs. It constricts the heart, checks the digestive functions, and causes many other physical disturbances. When the consciousness is kept on God, you will have no fears; every obstacle will then be overcome by courage and faith.

2. Purification of Mind

The mind when purified becomes calm and quiet. We can apply it wherever we want to. Without grumbling it sticks to it. In this state, it develops a capacity of concentration as its natural faculty. We can concentrate on whatever subject we want to. The climax of concentration means total identification with the object. On whatever objects or subject our mind concentrates, it becomes identified with that. This capacity is there latent in the mind is so significant for the realization of the self. The mind which is free from desires, is always concentrated and open upwards, to the higher planes of consciousness, and receives the knowledge and light and peace of the spirit within itself.

A pure mind is a perfect vessel to contain the nectar that flow from the self, ‘Atman’.

The power of spirit can abide only in a pure and dedicated heart.     

3. Put God's power behind your efforts

You should sit in silence before deciding about any important matter, asking the Father for his blessings. Then behind your power is God's power; behind your mind, His mind; behind your will, His will. When God is working with you, you cannot fail; every faculty you possess will increase in power. When you do your work with the thought of serving God, you receive His blessings.

Before embarking upon important undertakings, sit quietly, calm your senses, and thoughts, and meditate deeply. You will then be guided by the great creative power of Spirit. After that, you should utilize all necessary material means to achieve your goal.

4. Overcome your difficulties

The successful person may have had more serious difficulties to content with than one who has failed but the former trains himself to reject the thought of failure at all times. You should transfer your attention from failure to success, from worry to calmness, from mental wanderings to concentration, from restlessness to peace, and from peace to the divine bless within.

5. On Criticism and Misunderstanding

I will not waste my time in talking about the faults of others. If I find myself inclined to enjoy criticizing others I will first talk loudly against myself before others. I will criticize no one unless asked by him to do so, and then only with a desire to help. Many people excuse their own faults but judge other persons harshly. We should reverse this attitude by excusing others' shortcomings and by harshly examining our own.

6. The next attribute is titiksa - forbearance, tolerance, and endurance at the physical mental and verbal level. Expand your capacity to face every situation and circumstance that life brings. Coping with the world requires endurance and forbearance. 

7. The next quality of a successful man is self restraint, self control, self master, and control over your senses. The activities of the senses are the first step in to forming habit patterns. The conscious mind is connected to the senses. It is through the senses that the conscious mind interacts with the objects of the external world. If the mind is not trained properly, then the senses become the guiding force and the poor mind follows than helplessly. 

HAVE A DEFINED GOAL, A CLEAR VISION

Helen Keller was indeed a distinctive personality. She was blind, dumb and deaf. Yet, she made commendable achievements in her life. Once someone asked her – "Ma'am, what do you think could be worse than being born blind?" In a split second she replied – "To have sight but no vision!" If you go through the autobiographies of great achievers, you will find them saying in unison that the propelling force in their life was – a goal, a dream, a mission, a target, a purpose- something that always kept them motivated. If you don't have a goal in your life, you are never going to achieve what you could have achieved.

I do not know what I may seem to the world; but as to myself I seem to have been only a boy playing on the sea shore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me.

Sir Isaac Newton

If you plant a seed and dig it up daily to see if it is growing, it will never take roots.

I feel for others as I feel for myself. I will work out my salvation by serving my fellowman. I will take the best from every people. I will admire the good qualities of all nationalities and will not put my attention on their errors.
