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"

Happiness doesn't come from having everything, but making the best out of what we have, it's all about how we see ourselves.
Happiness is not having what we like.
Happiness is liking what we have and learning to make the most of it by giving it!!!

Action speaks louder than words ?

Let's start with the example of the founder of Tesla Elon Musk. He has made more than 100 patents effectively “open source.” Goes against all “common sense.” But his actions speak louder than any words. Waste no words on a man who dislikes you. Actions will impress him more. Some people think they can talk their way out of any situation, and for a time they may be right But if someone already dislikes you, either because of a simple misunderstanding or an error in judgment on your part, he or she will be especially difficult to persuade with words. Their emotions will always get in the way of their ability to think logically and reasonably. Consistent actions over a sustained period of time, however, will usually persuade even the most devout skeptic. If you constantly demonstrate that you are a generous, kind, and caring person, it will be very hard for even your enemies to dislike you. In any case, you will become a better person for having made the effort.

Die Empty ...

Recently just when I was surfing on the web I came across the book 'Die empty' -by Todd Henry. The title itself is unique and made me curious about what this book is all about. I have gone through the book and I found the concept quite amazing. I will try to summarize the book in short which I gain. The writer did his best to motivate people to pour out their ideas and potential energies in their communities and turn them into something useful before it is too late. The most beautiful of what he said in his book is that: "Do not go to your grave and you carry inside you the best that you have, always choose to die empty." Die empty is a new expression and unique in its own way, at first glance you will think it is normal. But I was surprised to know the true meaning of this new expression. It is to "die empty" of all the goodness that is within you. Deliver it before you leave this world. If you have knowledge give it out. If you have an idea ...
