Others will change , When we change


Living a life full of many different types of relationships sometimes brings with it different types of challenges and relationships can become a test of our mental strength when what we expect from others is not what we receive.
Expectations from others can sometimes burden us so much that at times we can find people extremely difficult to deal with. Also, we may lose interest in our lives to an extent, difficult to imagine. There was once a king who ruled a very big kingdom, which was full of different types of people, who were not only different in their roles but also very different in their natures and personalities. The king sometimes wondered that I am not able to satisfy so many different people because everyone has different expectations from me. At the same time, his different expectations from the people of his kingdom were immense and at times it became difficult for him to experience peace and inner stability while handling their concerns and demands. A minister of the king gave him a suggestion that instead of trying to focus on everyone’s desires and what they wanted, you be your good self and focus on playing your role in the best possible way and leave the rest to happen as it happens.
Many times, it’s not about making the effort to change others but it’s changing yourself which brings positive results. This is because it is your change that inspires others to change. Remember everyone will not act or behave as we want and sometimes it can be difficult to cope with this. But if we remain determined in our positive behavior and change, they will, after seeing our change, over a period of time, begin to realize their mistakes and become the way you expect them to be.

Responsibilities of a Mentor - Mentoring theory

Who is your mentor? Every great achiever is inspired by a great mentor. Mentorship is the best relationship you can't afford not to have. Every successful person and those with a positive mindset, are being mentored at some point. I firmly believe success is predicated upon having a mentor. The Five E's of a Mentor: #Experience: Receiving personal mentorship and guidance from someone who’s been where you're trying to go will be an invaluable experience for you. #Expediting the process of development: A mentor is equipped to accelerate the time and shorten the duration of where you currently are to where you are trying to be. Mentors expedite the journey by providing feedback and real-time accountability. #Evaluating your progress and focusing on strategies: A mentor challenges you to become your best. #Elevating the positive environment: When we come across challenges, we can lose momentum. Mentors are there to help bring priorities back into focus by ke...

Life is a challenge !!

Every single person has to believe that life is hard. Life never goes the way you want it to go. Life will be filled with happiness and will be filled with terrible situations. In life, you will have to sacrifice a lot. From the moment a little kid begins to leave their parents home to go to kindergarten, go to primary school. Life will never be the same, it is then that the struggles will begin. No more breaks, no more being with mommy 24/7. It is now time to think of life to think about the future. You will find yourself alone at times but you should never give up on yourself. You keep a motto that says “better days are coming” and you believe in it. Always strive for success. Keep the right friends. Never put all your eggs in the same basket. Work hard. That is why we all are here. We have to work to reach places.

Happiness is a state of mind !!

Happiness is a state of mind !! One is born in a first-class hospital, the other is delivered at home, both survived. One went to a private primary school and the other to a public school, both ended in the same high school. One woke up from the bed and the other woke up on the floor, both had a peaceful sleep. One has expensive attire, the other simple and cheap, both still cover their body. One ate fried rice and roasted chicken, the other ate homemade rice n dal but both filled their hunger. One drives a Lexus, the other uses public transport but both reached their destination. One may be reading this blog of Motivational Monk from a Samsung, iPhone X and the other on an ordinary Smartphone, but all can see the same message. Lifestyle is not a competition, various lanes lead to the same destination. Just because our neighbor has amassed material possessions, it does not mean that we are a failure. "Happiness is a state of mind, not a set of circumstances" ...
