Holding On Is Toxic But Leaving Is Painful?

Relationships too are like investments, not in material sense but in abstract!

You invest your time, sentiments and yourself hoping to get returns!

But the investment is not always successful, it goes down sometimes and continues going down further, now you can either take your investment out and bear the loss already afflicted or let it go further down and continue to increase the loss just because you hope it’ll get better.

So the point is when it’s toxic, leaving is painful BUT its not “more” painful!

“Focus On What You Want.”

If you search for negativity in this world you will find plenty of it. If you search for hate, anger, violence and sadness you will find it. But the same is true on the flip side: If your only INTENTION is to search for the good you will find only the good. Whatever meaning you give your life becomes your life. It can be a failure or a lesson, heartbreak or character building.

Life is against you or making you stronger because there is no such thing as reality. We choose our own reality by the meaning we give to each moment in our lives. Make it your intention to look for the good in your life, to notice the good in others, to be grateful for what you do have, to see challenges as opportunities, to show your true character.

Remember: What you give your attention to will become your experience in life. Practice seeing the good in your life, and in others. Think the best, expect the best and always ask yourself how can this benefit my life. Leave who you were, love who you are and look forward to who you will become.

“Live Today For Tomorrow It Will All Be History.”

One day you will be gone it may be in 50 years… it may be in 50 weeks… it may be next week… maybe next day or even today. I don’t know. You don’t know. Nobody knows. And rather than live in fear of this we should embrace the FACT that this life is SHORT and UNPREDICTABLE. Knowing this we must live FULLY TODAY. It is not a recipe for recklessness rather a recipe to give your all TODAY, to give your very BEST TODAY in everything you do, to give your greatest energy to this day, to your family, to everyone you encounter TODAY. It is a reminder for you to leave your best self in each moment.

What if they couldn’t speak to you tomorrow?

What if you are gone tomorrow?

What would they speak of you?

What can you do is that will leave a lasting positive memory in the lives of everyone you come into contact with…

It is about being light-hearted. Knowing that in the end, none of this stuff matters. The only thing that ever matters is how you made others feel and how you felt in your own heart. It is about knowing that things can never go with you in the end. The spirit lives on… but the ‘things’… they die with your physical body. Remembering that we are going to die is the greatest reminder we can have in our daily lives because it keeps us focused on what’s really important and what is REAL.

 

 

“Baby Is Coming.”

To every reader on this post who’s had a struggle, who’s had some pains, who’s had some tests let me tell you something the stuff you’ve been through don’t pay it any attention because it is just a sign that the baby is coming.

You’re on the verge of birthing it doesn’t matter whether you’re 30, 40, 50, 60, 70 there’s something down inside of you that is still kicking inside of you that wants to get out and it wants to live. There’s something in you

that needs to be fed,

that needs to be stirred,

that needs to be electrified,

that needs to be illuminated,

there’s something down inside of you crying let me out.

“Everything You Need Is Already Inside You.”

The happiest people don’t have the best of everything… They make the best of everything!

 The happiest people don’t have the greatest financial wealth. They always have the greatest spiritual wealth!

The happiest people don’t always live in the best suburbs. They always live in the best states!

Happiness is a mindset. Happiness is something WE ALL CAN HAVE because real happiness is never found outside of us. It is not found in possessions or wealth. Happiness is always and only found within us.

They say that happiness is the highest level of success. They couldn’t be more true because everything we do is because we want happiness. The chasing of the financial wealth is only because we think we would be happier and more people love us if we have the significance of being wealthy. The chasing of the relationships is only because we think we would be happier if we had the ideal partner. Sure, there is nothing wrong with these things but nothing can compare to genuine happiness, nothing can compare to the inner peace you feel when you need nothing.

The irony is when you get to the place where you need nothing externally. You attract those great things into your life. The magic is when you are happy, you attract more happiness. Everything doesn’t fall into place and then you become happy. You find happiness and peace first, then everything falls into place.

You can never control the events of life, but you can always control your response to them. You can always control your emotions. You can always control the meaning you give to the situation. Be the good you wish to see in your own life. Let it flow out of you first and then it will flow back to you. Never forget your greatest measure of success will always be the level of happiness you feel consistently. Not money, not cars, not things, Happiness.

How happy are you on a consistent basis? Happiness will come, like anything else. It will come if you practice it. One small positive thought in the morning can change your whole day. Start your day off with positivity! Fill your day with positivity. Spend time in gratitude. Make an effort to lift others up. Be kind for no reason. Nothing makes you happier than lifting others up. Happiness comes when you have a positive expectation for your future. You have let go of your past and your intention is to live fully in this powerful present moment. To make the most of this day!

Always remember this: Nothing is worth it if it does not make you happy.

One day you will be gone. Nothing you are stressing over will matter in the end.Be free from fear, worry and doubt. The only thing that matters is your inner peace, your inner happiness, SO SMILE BIG! DREAM BIG! Get grateful for the magic in your life and not only expect more to come but when challenges come up, expect to handle them with courage, strength and a powerful SMILE!

“Yes I Changed”

Last year I had gone through some major changes in life. And for that time, I used to question the pattern of things a lot. The depression was killing me. One year forward, I thank God every day for those changes. I grew up so much mentally in this short period of time. I became very self-aware. Every time a certain someone or something is removed from my life, I receive something way more grand in return. And that’s how it’s supposed to be. So I’m not questioning the patterns anymore. I don’t interfere in the process of transition. I’ve started to let things flow. I’ve finally stopped sticking around for people who made me question my worth. I don’t lie awake measuring and analyzing and questioning my value, anymore. I am enough. I cherish every single person that accepts me for who I am.

“Old Man’s Misfortune”

Once there lived a wise old man in a village. Although he was poor the king was jealous of him because he owned a beautiful white horse. He was offered an extravagant amount of money for the horse, but the man always refused, saying, “This is not just a horse to me, but a person and a friend… could you sell your friend? No, absolutely not!”

One morning he woke up and found his horse gone. As the news spread the whole village gathered at his house, “You old foolish man! It was just a matter of time before your horse would be stolen. You could have been rich had you sold it. What a misfortune!”

“We’ll see.” replied the old man. “It’s true that the horse is not in the stable, but how do you know whether it’s a misfortune or not?” The villagers laughed at him and said, “Don’t try to fool us, you silly man!”

A few days later, the horse returned and with her came several wild horses. Again the villagers came to the man’s house, “Old man, you were right. We are sorry for what we said. Now you have more beautiful horses. You can train them and sell them to earn money. What a blessing!”

The old man smiled, “We’ll see. Who knows, whether it’s a blessing or not?” This time people kept silent.

A couple of days later, the old man’s only son fell off one of the wild horses while trying to ride him, and broke his leg. Upon hearing .this villagers gathered again and told the old man: “You were right. Having more horses is not a blessing. Now your only son is injured. What a misfortune!”

Again the old man replied: “We’ll see.”

One month later, war broke out and all the young people of the village were forced to join the military. The villagers all gathered and cried, “Our sons are gone forever… Your son’s injury indeed turned out to be a blessing!”

The old man replied, “Whether it is a blessing or a misfortune_nobody knows… Only God knows!”

Life reveals itself to us in fragments. Sometimes, when something happens, it’s better not to jump to conclusions but to let it be and wait. A seeming misfortune may be a blessing in disguise and vice versa. There’s always a higher plan unfolding.

“Don’t take Anything in Your Life for granted.”

Don’t take a single moment of your life for granted. At this very moment, someone is taking their last breath and would give anything for a few more moments on this earth. You have so many blessings… think about them, right now…

FEEL how blessed you are.

ACKNOWLEDGE how blessed you are.

TRUST that everything will work out for you maybe not exactly as you planned, but perfectly for the evolution of your soul. TRUST that whatever you have been asking for is on its way. It will come at the perfect time when you are ready to receive it. Stress will not bring it in any faster. Anxious feelings will not bring it in any faster. Positivity and making a DECISION to feel good, regardless of whether it is here or not that will make everything better. JUST DECIDE to FEEL as though you already have it, FEEL how would you feel if you needed nothing else on earth. That’s what we are all seeking. The feeling, that we have it all. And we do. It’s all inside and that is the true success.

Needing nothing, yet having everything.

 

“Something Good comes out of Something Bad.”

When things are going bad there’s gonna be some good that’s gonna come from it.

Oh mission got cancelled?

Good. We can focus on another one.

Didn’t get promoted?

Good. More time to get better.

Didn’t get funded?

Good. We own more of the company.

Didn’t get the job you wanted?

Good. You can get more experience and build a better resume.

Got beat?

Good. You learned.

Unexpected problems?

Good. We have the opportunity to figure out the solution.

When things are going bad don’t get all bummed out, don’t get startled, don’t get frustrated. No, you just look at the issue and you say “GOOD”, you still got some fight in you. So get up, dust off, reload, re-calibrate, re-engage and go out on the attack.

 

“Weakness”

You shouldn’t accept that you are what you are, that is what you doomed to be. NO. You shouldn’t accept that. You have to fight. You have to struggle and you have to scrap. You have to kick and claw at those weaknesses to change them, to stop them.

Some days you win. Some days you don’t. But each and every day you get back up and you move forward with your fists clenched toward the battle, toward the struggle and you fight with everything you’ve got to overcome those weaknesses and those shortfalls and those flaws. As you strive to be just a little bit better today than you were yesterday.

There is no longer any room for excuses. Excuses are the tools of incompetent used to build bridges to nowhere and monuments of nothingness. Well we’ve got no time for excuses. Nobody is going to give you anything that you have not earned. Nobody cares how tough your upbringing was. Nobody cares if you suffered some discrimination.

You have to remember that whatever you’ve gone through it pales in comparison to the hardships previous generations endured and they overcame them and if they overcame them you can overcome them too.

You don’t know what you’ve got until all hell breaks loose. You don’t know what you can take until the pressure is applied to your life. You don’t know what you can endure until you’ve been under fire and under struggle and under tribulation you can’t learn what’s in you sitting back in a lazy boy chair hitting the remote control watching HBO and Cinemax but when all hell breaks loose that’s when you get to see what you got.

 You can tell by the burdens you bear and the load you carry and the stuff you endure. It’s not just that shock your enemies, you shock yourself they said you were gonna die but through hell and high water you are still here.
