What is your story ?


What Is Your Story?
I remember my childhood was filled with my grandmother’s stories. I can recall every single one of them; remembering exactly how she would tell each story with her calm and warm voice. The lessons I learned from her stories still remain effective in my life. Back then, I used to believe in those stories, they had formed my reality. What is essential to understand now is that those were stories of my childhood, not my adulthood.
Everything you attract into your life is a reflection of the story you believe and keep telling yourself.
The stories we tell ourselves shape who we were, who we are, and who we will become. These stories shape our attitudes, beliefs, self-perception and so on. In life, there may be certain stories we like to tell ourselves repeatedly. It is important to understand that not all stories are meant for you and not all stories are true. It is possible for a story to be built on a lie or a fear. I call these stories fiction; they do not enhance or empower you, instead, they deter you from living life to its full potential. It is dangerous to believe in such fiction.
"Stories can conquer fear, you know. They can make the heart bigger."― Ben Okri
What is the story that you tell and believe in about yourself today?
live your story
You can't succeed.
You are not good enough.
You are not having a good year.
You are not talented enough.
You are stuck where you are and nothing can change the situation.
Your situation is so unique and no one else can help you.
You have to accept the circumstances the way they are.
Your life is just terrible.
Such stories are the byproducts of lies once told and fears once felt. It's time to change your story. It is time to tell a real story.
How you may ask?
Stop repeating fiction and start realizing your reality. Don’t buy into the lies people tell about you or the lies you may have told yourself. Release yourself from the grip fear has on your life. Tell yourself a story of growth, encouragement, and greatness. Find what lies within you and allow it to speak loudly and clearly; repeat it often enough for it to become your belief.
Here is your new S.T.O.R.Y.
S.
You are SPECIAL, you are SIGNIFICANT, you have been created to SERVE, and SUCCESS is always within your reach.
T.
You are TRUSTWORTHY, you are always THANKFUL, and you have been gifted by TENACITY, hard work, dedication. Yes, "I CAN" is what you believe and nothing else.
O.
You are OPEN-MINDED, you are OUTSTANDING, and been created to OUTREACH toward the needy, OUTDO any competition and OUT LEARN any lesson.
R.
You are REFINED, you are RESPECTED, and you are REWARDED with many gifts and talents by God.
Y.
You are YOUTHFUL and are daily renewed by God's given energy and compassion. You do not yearn for more than what you have, instead, you celebrate your life with joy and youthfulness. You are forever young.
Be the hero of your own story. You are born to turn your mess into a message and your test into a testimony.
This practice goes beyond the positive thinking cliché. It is not just thinking about these stories; it is about living and believing these stories. This is about your life. It is crucial to understand the power and impact of a true story. People may forget your name or your face, but they will never forget a good story, a true story. Tell them your story.

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 ...
