Moving Ahead Regularly

During my childhood, I heard a story of a king who left his queen in the jungles and asked her to return back only if she could carry a bull on her back. The queen was committed to get her honor back, so she planned for this nearly impossible task. She found a calf and started playing with it and carried it daily on her back. As the calf grew, the queen got used to its weight and one fine day she showed the king that she was able to do, what he desired out of her.

Swami Vivekananda used to sleep at 10 in the night and got up at 4 in the morning. He meditated everyday and the whole world stands one for his marvelous preachings.

We have read another story of a kid who was completely dumb at studies. One day, his teacher told him to watch the stone on which the women folk, rolled a rope string daily, to draw water from the well. The kid noticed that the stone had given way to marks of the rope. The teacher remarked, that if something as hard as stone can get marks of a rope due to constant use, why can't you study regularly and achieve what seems a upheaval task for you. The student threw all thoughts of dumbness out of his mind and just studied regularly. His efforts finally yielded fruits and he mastered his books.

Practice, regularity, routine: all these worlds are not meant for only the great sportsmen or big leaders or celebrities. If we have to achieve something satisfying we have to constantly endeavor for it.

Usually, some people struggle to lose weight. They want to attain that in few months or days, unaware of the ill-effects on the body. We will always find some students who always struggle the eleventh hour to get good grades.

All these habits may prove helpful for temporary results but in the long run, they just degrade our mental and physical strengths.

We should learn to maintain routines. This reduces the pressure of upcoming challenges.

Many of the project managers should learn to be organized, and attain their targets with a regular work load. A lot of frustration has developed in the professional world because the organizers are not performing their job well. They mess up with the schedules, don't work on the requirements with full expertise and so the whole lot who work for them suffer.

In the present times many heart ailments and stress related problems have cropped up. Why can't we sit back and ponder on our daily activities?

May be there is no place for the slow in this fast paced world, but at least we can be steady.This relieves a lot of headache and sufferings.

The more you sweat in practice, the less you bleed in battle.

Being Spiritual Helps

A man with God is always in majority.-John Knox

All mortal human beings have a tendency to find "true faith”. Some who have great confidence of their own are able to manage themselves on their own. But even they start somewhere and gain inspiration from something.

As a kid we stick to our mothers with the belief that she will be there for us all the time. As we grow ,we will make friends. Their companionship doesn't let us feel alone. And later in our lives our soul mates and kids become the source of faith. They are the people we can bend on.

What if nobody of such sorts is present in time of need? Are we all alone?
A lot of people have spent a lot of time on this thought.

Our ancient sages like Lord Buddha opted for solitude and delved into the intricacies of happenings and human behaviour.Their study was supported greatly by nature around .Directly or indirectly all of them were trying to understand the supreme power which scripts all that exists in the world.

Though they used to meditate in the jungles with no kith and kin around, they always had the company of the Almighty .The journey to the supreme knowledge was tough but eventually the hardships enabled the sages to attain 'true spiritualism’. These hermits and sages were the ones who later professed their ideas and aroused the civilizations.

We can always learn from the sages. If we attain even a small share of what these sages had attained, we can certainly improve our lives.

We can meditate or we can pray. Reading spiritual books will also leave some effect.Practising Yoga provides for meditation or ringing the bells before the deity does empower ourselves.

The least it can do is, it will bring us closer to God. When we know there is always somebody dependable around we don't feel lonely and that boosts our confidence. If done regularly, a feeling of content and comfort gradually develops .It renders peace and certainly happiness.

Every evening I turn my worries over to God. He’s going to be up all night anyway.-Mary .C .Crowley
