Who is responsible for the hostile forces?

We hear, read and experience so many hostile forces in our life. Anger is a hostile force. They don't belong to you exclusively. It is not in you. It belongs to everyone.They circulate in the atmosphere. It wanders here and there. If you close the door, it will not enter.

Envy is one such hostile force. You can cite so many such negative forces that we embrace. But we blame fate, bad time for the miseries that happen because we recognize and respond to those negative emotions.

Have you thought on these lines that there is a necessity for the hostile forces? Please be aware that they exist because you gave a reason to exist. There is something in you which answers them. If nothing in you responds, if they had no hold upon any part of your nature, they would retire and leave you.

I learnt this by reading the wonderful writings of 'The Mother" of Shri Aurobindo Ashram, Pondicherry, India.

How to convert your self talking habit into manifest desires?

All about reprogramming subconscious mind, affirmations, auto-suggestion centers around self talk.

If you are talking to your spouse, children, colleagues, boss for about 60 minutes a day, do you know how many minutes you are talking to yourself?

It will be a minimum of 120 minutes! If that is the case, have you ever wondered what was it that you were talking to yourself?

* Were you just rehearsing the conversations with others?
* Were you cursing yourself for not doing something properly?
* Were you just day dreaming?

If you care to analyze honestly, you would be pumping your mind, especially your inner self with negative rubbish!

Whatever it may be, you can convert those 120 minutes into something extraordinarily productive. The possibilities are so mind boggling that you would certainly curse yourself (again but for a better purpose) for not knowing about it earlier.

How do you discover your intentions?

“That is easy”-you will rush to respond but let me tell you it is not easy. If you do not believe me, try to list out your intentions on a paper. I guess you will find yourself not moving beyond intention number 1.

Invariably, you will be confused between intention and desire.

Some of your desires will be bordered on your bad intentions. Intentions are powerful. Intentions do not tell you where to head. Desires will clearly point out your goals.

What is intention?

Intention is our motive that helps us to achieve our objectives.

How to find your intentions?

It is found only by writing them on a paper and go over them after 24 hours. You will find yourself deleting several from your list. This implies that when you put down your thoughts on paper, your mental system is free now of clutters and it will make you think again involuntarily and that is why you will see a shorter list of intentions.

Give it another 24 hours and your list will now only show two or three. If you take immediate action to implement your intentions, you will realize how happy you are.

Conclusion:

Once you clear your mind of clutters, you will take giant strides. Periodically offload your thoughts on paper or in front of God. Lighten yourself and radiance will appear on your face.

Don't be afraid to say or do things.

Don't be afraid to say or do things which are generally considered as taboos but of course never infringe on others' security and property.

What I mean to say is live by your heart and not by certain rules you are taught. After all, haven't we all seen how etiquette have changed over the centuries? What was considered as indecent is now accepted by the society.

And what is a society but a group of individual with varied educational levels and cultural background?

Let us all examine our personal life with a sense of self honesty. * Don't we hide our true selves from the world?
* Don't we feel a sense of shame or guilt that I would say is misplaced?
* Aren't we constantly afraid of social rejection?

What sort of pseudo identities we project?

See, only these things will lead us to depression and we allow a semblance of dissatisfaction set in permanently.

I have put my points rather mildly here. Read Steve Pavlina and he has driven his points sharply.

How to stop complaining?

There is no point in labeling anyone as a complaining type. We all without exception should be boldly labelled "Type-Complaining; Advise: Stay Away"

But the degree of complaining might vary based on the person's attitude and ability to forget. Yes, people with strong memory are vulnerable to be labelled as mentioned above.

Some of the common complaints on:
* weather
* World economy
* Unpunctual transportation
* Corrupt politics
* Disobedient children
* Bad cooking
* Poor quality groceries

To know how to stop complaining, you should know why you are complaining.

It is our resistance to 'what is' that is the prime cause of our complaining nature. We expect everything and everyone to be like us and to agree with our life values.

For example, if we don't take things easy, we want everyone around us to be the same.

If we like only classical music, we don't tolerate any other kind of music and we judge them as people with poor music taste.

We simply don't permit others to differ from us.

I think you have already found the answers to title of this blog post.

The nature of their complaints relate to frequent breakdowns of household gadgets and vehicles, missing the flights, holdups in traffic, investments that turn into losses, not getting the recognition in their work and profession and many more.

How to enjoy life?

I have been teaching mathematics since 1990. My classes starts from 5.30 AM and closes at 8.00 AM
I get a break to read newspapers, operate washing machine, do the cooking and this and that.

Again my classes start at 3.30 PM and ends at 8.00 PM. I eat and retire dead tired.

Look at my husband who works more hours than me but he gets time to read books, visit his friends and takes time to go out of station for a couple of days occasionally. He life is really enviable.

So, what am I lacking?
Why don't I find time for the things I want to do apart from working for a survival?
Am I not sincere in my work?
Am I not earning more than my husband?

Just whats wrong? What should I do to remedy the monotony?

For this my husband gave me a note that read:
"If you always do what you have always done, then you will always get what you have always gotten".

I stared at the message for a long time. Something turned inside me. I knew.

Do you?

Yes or No?

These three words encounter us and put us in a dilemma. At normal circumstances, when we rehearse such a situation mentally, we seem to decide very quickly and prepare a convincing reason also for the decision.

But when faced in real life, we seem to lose the ability to decide on our own and seek the answer from friends, relatives and colleagues. Why? What happened in between? Why our hypothetical wisdom deserted us?

I think I am not confusing you.

Have you ever found time to analyze your behavior after the coming out of such situation? If not, may I prod you on?
