Overcoming Worry About What Others Think Of You (Part 1)

Overcoming Worry About What Others Think Of You (Part 1) We all very commonly in our day-to-day lives come across different people in our family, our workplace and in our social interactions and they all hold different perceptions and opinions about us. Some of these thoughts that they carry in their minds are good about us and some can be negative and not very comforting for us to hear and know. How do we overcome this fear and worry of what others think of us? Let's understand in this message – 1. Tell Yourself Everyday That You Are A Special Soul And A Beautiful Child Of God - Every morning as soon as you wake up, begin the morning with some nice and elevated thoughts about yourself. Praise yourself subtly and also think about your specialties and attainments in life. The more you do this, the more you will become detached from everyone and what they think of you. You will respect everyone but at the same time, you will understand and respect yourself and not be worried about what others think of you, especially if they are thinking wrong. At the same time, if they think something about you which is right, like about your weaknesses or some actions of yours, which you think needs improvement, you will give their opinion importance and bring those changes in yourself. 2. Take Short Time Breaks In The Day To Go Inwards And Reflect – A very common aspect of human lives nowadays is looking outwards and connecting with people the entire day. Most people are not taking out time to connect to the inner self and God, which is making them weak emotionally and that is why people get influenced by what others are talking about them and discussing about them. God tells us to connect with Him and remember Him nicely with love. The more we do that, the more others start liking us for everything we do and everyone offers their love, respect, support and co-operation to us because God is the seed of this entire tree of the world family. The more we love and respect God, that vibration radiates to the entire tree and every leaf of the tree or in other words every human soul offers the same to us at every step and thinks positively and nicely for us and if they sometimes think negatively for us, we transform their thinking with our positive vibrations. (To be continued tomorrow …) Message for the day The one who is aware of one's fortune enables others to experience their fortune too. Expression: To be aware of one's own fortune means to appreciate and use all that one has. Also when there is the awareness of one's own fortune, there is a natural tendency to help people become aware of what they have and how they can benefit from it. So the one who is fortunate becomes a giver.  Experience: When I am able to recognize my own fortune, I am able to have the joy of being a giver constantly. Whatever the circumstances, I am able to give knowing that I am fortunate. But never is there dependency created on me, because my help is to make them aware of their fortune too and make them independent.

Message for the day To be careless means to misuse specialities. Expression: To be careless means that there is no awareness of one's specialitites and so there is the inability to use them for the benefit of the self and for the good of others. On the other hand there is also a tendency to become overconfident because of these specialities and not to work on self -transformation. The one who is careless is not able to recognize the need for self change and so is not able to bring about transformation.  Experience: When I am able to be free from carelessness, I am able to understand the importance of the specialities that I have , and am able to use a particular speciality that I have , and am able to put them into use. So I find that the more I am able to use a particular speciality that I have, the more I am able to bring out and use the latent specialities that are within me. So I am able to experience quick transformation and constant progress.

5 Steps Of Co-operation For A Joyful World (Part 2)

5 Steps Of Co-operation For A Joyful World (Part 2) 2. Make Your Home And Workplace A Sphere Of Happiness – A very important and easy beginning to making a world full of happiness is to create an atmosphere of lightness and positivity in your home and office. Let's say, your family members or office colleagues are facing some problems because of which they experience sorrow, share with them positive thoughts of success and determination everyday. The more everyone is filled with positive information, the more everyone's perspective to life's different situations will change and they will become more positive. Various beliefs about life and its different situations, which are the cause of many stressful emotions, change when positivity is injected into everyone's minds regularly. Also, a primary cause of sorrow is remembering old negative experiences that have happened with us in the past. Train everyone at home and office to remember positive scenes of life with lightness and enthusiasm and forget the bad experiences as older negative scenes that have drifted into the past will never happen again. 3. Become A Giver And Adopt A Caring Attitude – A most important personality characteristic that all of us should imbibe is one of giving and caring and ensuring that everyone I meet is blessed positively while meeting me. In other words, give a blessing to everyone each day. The more we give blessings, the more happy people will feel in our presence. A blessing is a power or quality or a few sweet words of love and goodness. Look at everyone with a loveful and sweet vision and share your inner niceness and good wishes through your smile. Also, give a soft greeting of love to everyone. Become rich with happiness and make others rich with the same. Caring, sharing and giving this way will spread happiness and make the atmosphere around you full of love and enthusiasm and free from worry, stress and sadness. (To be continued tomorrow …) Message for the day The habit of thinking positive finishes negative. Expression: Just as it has become a habit of thinking negative, a positive habit when created will naturally bring about a change. A little practice and attention to form a habit of thinking positive will reveal its result of creating an influence of positivity. The situations will not change on their own, but the habit that has been formed will bring about a change in the response and will change the situation too.   Experience: Usually it becomes very difficult or sometimes impossible for me to think positive in difficult situations. At that time, although I want to, the response that emerges from within is based on the habit that is formed previously. So when I make the habit of constantly and consciously thinking positive, I then become free from the struggle of having to change my mind to positive in difficult situations.
