  • Wake Up to a Great Quotation Every Day!

    16 Nov 2009 | 8:15 pm
    It's the same story every day. Wake up to a shrill alarm, bland cereal and cold milk, coffee on the run, meetings, deadlines, and dinner in front of the TV.

  • Wisdom in Small Packets

    14 Nov 2009 | 9:19 pm

  • Let's Say 'Thank You'

    12 Nov 2009 | 9:06 pm
    When was the last time you said 'thank you' and sincerely meant it? Our thank yous have become jaded, just like our life. We say 'thanks' without thinking. "Honey, can you iron this shirt for me, thanks!" "Ma'am, here's your parking ticket, thanks!" That's how we say our thank yous. Of course, it is a polite gesture and it is better than not saying 'thank you' at all. But what if we came up with different ways to express our gratitude so that the person receiving it feels truly appreciated? With these quotes for thank you, you can make a difference. Use thank you card quotes to say thank you…

    Positive Thinking Quotes

  • Spread Positivity Everywhere !

    Mayura
    20 Nov 2009 | 1:41 am
    Feelings change intentions, thus changing actions too. When there are negative feelings like jealousy or hatred towards another person, those feelings naturally create misunderstanding. Even if the other person has a good feeling while doing something, a negative intention is attributed and this naturally changes one's own behaviour or response making it negative too. When there is the slightest bit of negative feeling within us for someone, it naturally creates further negativity from others too. We find everything we come across to be negative, like the one who wears colored glasses sees…

  • Fill Other Person With The Strength Of Your Faith !

    Mayura
    19 Nov 2009 | 1:08 am
    Faith in others enables them to be powerful. Faith in others is usually mistaken for blind faith - observing helplessly only hoping for the best in our heart. We then consciously don't do anything but just hope for the best. In such a situation we subtly experience fear or tension. But this is not true faith nor is the outcome usually right. Faith in others means to remain alert to what is going on and then to fill the other person with the strength of our faith to such an extent that they feel able to do whatever needs to be done. Our faith will fill them with confidence and they will be…

  • Allow Your Intellect to Become Peaceful !

    Mayura
    18 Nov 2009 | 12:31 am
    In order to make your intellect refined, talk to yourself and talk to God with your heart. Don't just make complaints and demands. Allow your intellect to become peaceful. Forget anything that has to do with the body or - bodily - relations. As He is nonphysical, make yourself nonphysical with your thoughts; then have a conversation with Him. He will listen to the things of your heart and give you a response. ~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

  • Help Others In The Right Way !

    Mayura
    17 Nov 2009 | 12:20 am
    True help is to appreciate the efforts of each one to improve themselves. Not realising that all are making effort to bring improvement in themselves at their own level, we tend to point out people's mistakes only to prove them wrong. It is by proving them wrong that we want to prove ourselves right. This doesn't help others in anyway to bring a change in them. We need to focus more on the potential and unique specialities of those around us, rather than on their faults. This will help us to appreciate the effort that each one is making to bring improvement in himself. Then we find that even…

  • Have Fun In Whatever Work You Do !

    Mayura
    13 Nov 2009 | 12:31 am
    When I finish this project, then I will be happy! When this situation is resolved, I will be fine. When I reach my goal, I will finally relax, be peaceful! To surf in the Ocean is to understand where the waves are coming from and which ones to take. Maybe what life is asking of you is different from the responses you were trained to give to it. To be successful in the Ocean needs effort and positioning. Catch the right wave. The objective of the surfer is to enjoy the ride, to have fun. In the same way, do not postpone your happiness; enjoy whatever comes your way. ~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.
