Be Sincere With Your Own Specialties To Achieve Constant Success

Think on this...

"Determine never to be idle.
No person will have occasion to complain of the want of time who never loses
any. It is wonderful how much can be done if we are always doing."
~ Thomas Jefferson

"There are two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a
miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle."
~ Albert Einstein

"None will improve your lot if you yourself do not."
~ Bertolt Brecht

"Resentment is one burden that is incompatible with your success.
Always be the first to forgive; and forgive yourself first always."
~ Dan Zadra

To be sincere with our own specialties is to achieve constant success. We never need to prove what we are, but because of our sincerity our actions become an expression of our specialities. Just like a diamond never needs to prove but its sparkle is its proof of the value it has. When we work with our specialties with sincerity, then we will never give excuses or have expectations, but use every situation as an opportunity to express our qualities. If we ever find ourselves giving excuses for our wrong or negative behaviour or words, we need to remind ourselves of the goodness and specialties that we have. When we do this, we will be sincere for the use of our qualities under all circumstances.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Inspiring Thoughts Can Change Your Life

When someone does something good, applaud!
You will make two people happy.
~ Samuel Goldwyn


"Learn to enjoy every minute of your life.
Be happy now.
Don't wait for something outside of yourself to make you happy in the future.
Think how really precious is the time you have to spend, whether it's at work
or with your family.
Every minute should be enjoyed and savored."
~ Earl Nightingale


We should have courage to work on the self is to find the beauty within. Situations come that challenge one's own strength. At such times the mind tends to become weak displaying weaknesses. Then there is no courage to look within. The one who is able to be introspective at that time is able to find a new learning. He is thus able to express the beauty that is lying within. When we understand that at each step of our life, situations come to bring out some quality from within, we'll never be afraid of situations. We'll have the courage to challenge our own assumptions and move forward based on the learning that we get and the beauty that we have been able to discover.
~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

GREAT Thought...

We are made to travel life's journey hand in hand.
There is someone ready to grasp your hand today...

And someone hoping you will take theirs.
Remember To Hang On To One Another!

Lesson Of Courage

After Dr. David Livingstone had begun his now famous missionary work in Africa, a certain group wrote the great pioneer and asked: "Have you found a good road to where you are? If so, please advise. We'd like to send others to assist you."

Dr. Livingstone sent this reply: "If you have those who will come only if they know there is a good road, I don't want them. I want individuals who are strong and courageous -- those who will come if there is no road at all!"

What a lesson in courage!

Courage is performing the task that would be easier not to do.

It's moving out on faith, when you know full well the risks and the pitfalls that will challenge you.

It's marching ahead, blazing a new trail where there are no roads, and sometimes no maps to guide you.

It's what Winners do...

Uplifting Future Quotes Of The Day

"My interest is in the future,
Because I'm going to be spending the rest of my life there."
~ Charles Kettering

We usually blame our fortune when something goes wrong. We either feel it to be unjust or we tend to curse our past actions, which have brought us this fate. To curse past actions is to lose the present moment too. Instead of cursing our past actions, we need to make the most of the present. Whatever we do today, we get the fruit of it right now and for the future too. So we need to pay attention to do the right actions always and create the best fortune for ourselves.
~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

"Only those who will risk going too far
Can possibly find out how far one can go."
~ T.S. Eliot

"There will come a time when you believe everything
is finished. That will be the beginning."
~ Louis L'Amour

Introversion enables one to experience progress. When we are introverted we will be able to check ourselves and progress. Introversion gives us the power to see our own mistake, however small it might be. With the recognition of the mistake comes the power to bring about a change and there is an experience of progress. We remind ourselves that with each mistake that happens, we actually get a chance to learn. When something goes wrong we don't have to feel disheartened but, take it as a learning for our future. This understanding gives us the experience of constant progress whatever the circumstances might be.
~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Do It Now & You Will Get Success

"Seek always to do some good, somewhere.

Your brothers are here too."
~ Albert Schweitzer

"A professional is a man who can do his best at a time when he doesn't particularly feel like it."

Watch your thoughts; they become words.
Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character.
Watch your character: it becomes your destiny.
~ Frank Outlaw

"Sometimes our light goes out, but is blown into flame by another human being.
Each of us owes deepest thanks to those who have rekindled this light."
~ Albert Schweitzer

To have the determination to do things immediately is to ensure success. The one slogan that is good to remember is 'Now or never'. If we are not able to use the thought we have immediately we will never be able to, because the strength of the thought begins to gradually reduce till it doesn't seem important anymore. Also there might not be enough time for it in the future. Let us first think of something that we want to do and take a thought, "if I do it now it will happen or it can never happen." When we think in this way we will not postpone but do what is required immediately.
~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Take the power to walk in the forest and be a part of nature.
Take the power to control your own life. No one else can do it for you.
Take the power to make your life happy."
~ Susan Polis Schutz


"Great things are done by a series of small things brought together."
~ Vincent Van Gogh


"The truth of the matter is that there's nothing you can't accomplish if:
(1) You clearly decide what it is that you're absolutely committed to achieving,
(2) You're willing to take massive action,
(3) You notice what's working or not, and
(4) You continue to change your approach until you achieve what you want, using whatever life gives you along the way."
~ Anthony Robbins


"The world of achievement has always belonged to the optimist."
~ J. Harold Wilkins

The 7 Prosperity & Happiness Quotes

1. Life's Little Instructions- "Drink champagne for no reason at all. Live your life as an exclamation, not an explanation. Don't be afraid to say, "I made a mistake."

What we do possess perhaps it is the key to our survival as a species is an almost unquenchable need to know."

- Philip S. Berg

4. "There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle."

Excellence is Drive from "Inside"

A gentleman was once visiting a temple under construction. In the temple premises, he saw a sculptor making an idol of God. Suddenly he saw, just a few meters away, another identical idol was lying. Surprised he asked the sculptor, do you need two statutes of the same idol. No said the sculptor. We need only one, but the first one got damaged at the last stage.

The gentleman examined the sculptor. No apparent damage was visible. Where is the damage asked the gentleman? There is a scratch on the nose of the idol. Where are you going to keep the idol? The sculptor replied that it would be installed on a pillar 20 feet high.

When the idol will be 20 feet away from the eyes of the beholder, who is going to know that there is scratch on the nose? The gentleman asked. The sculptor looked at the gentleman, smiled and said "The God knows it and I know it".

The desire to excel should be exclusive of the fact whether someone appreciates it or not. Excellence is a drive from "inside" not "outside". Excel at a task today...not necessarily for someone else to notice but for your own satisfaction.

Self Motivational Thought

When someone tells you that you can't do something

Look around

Consider all options

Then GO for it!

Use all the things God gave you!

Be creative!

In the end, you will succeed and prove them wrong!

Always remember -

"When there is a will, there is a way"

Think Positive with Inspirational Thoughts

Think on this...

"A hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles."
~ Christopher Reeve

"Be not afraid of life. Believe that life is worth living,
and your belief will help you create the fact."
~ William James

INSIGHT...

It seems to be a common mistake that people want to wait
until 'things are good' before feeling happy, or satisfied.

When you consider the fact that there are many people in
the World in much worse situations who are happy, this
mistake becomes apparent.

Our old enemy pessimism is a biased way of thinking. If you
are going to consider all the negatives about a situation,
you are lying to yourself if you do not also consider the
possible positives.

Negativity can become a habit, and one that comes naturally
to human beings. But balanced thinking can become a habit
too, even if it requires a bit more practice.

Commitment Make You Clear & Pure From Inside

I believe life is constantly testing us for our level of commitment, and life's greatest rewards are reserved for those who demonstrate a never-ending commitment to act until they achieve. This level of resolve can move mountains, but it must be constant and consistent. As simplistic as this may sound, it is still the common denominator separating those who live their dreams from those who live in regret.
~ Anthony Robbins

When there is commitment to make oneself clear and pure from inside, there is the ability to recognize and remove all that is waste and unnecessary. There is honesty and sincerity with oneself and every step is taken to remove all that is not good. When there is the ability to do that, there is an ability also to become a mirror for others to see their own perfection. To keep myself free from negativity means to see my own inner perfection. I am not caught up with my visible negativity, but am able to connect to my inner qualities. I am honest with myself and am able to work for my own inner growth.
~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

There are countless ways of attaining greatness, but any road to reaching one's maximum potential must be built on a bedrock of respect for the individual, a commitment to excellence, and a rejection of mediocrity.
~ Buck Rodgers

The quality of a person's life is in direct proportion to their commitment to excellence, regardless of their chosen field of endeavor.
~ Vince Lombardi

We usually look for happiness in all that we do. Unless there is an experience of attainment or visible fruit seen, we are not inspired to do the task. With such an attitude, although we do experience happiness for some time, we do not find it long lasting. Real and permanent happiness comes from our commitment towards our aim. When we are focused on that, the little things that we have to do which don't give us immediate happiness or which are difficult for us, don't stop us. We continue to move forward with happiness towards our aim.
~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Inspired by These Words of Wisdom!

1. There is no doubt in my mind that there are many ways to be a winner, but there is really only one way to be a loser and that is to fail and not look beyond the failure
~ Kyle Rote Jr

2. Most of the times we do manage to win over our weaknesses and achieve progress but sometimes we find that we are defeated at the wrong moment by our own weaknesses and thus experience failure. So instead of experiencing progress it is sometimes the case that we find ourselves moving back. In order to bring benefit to others and to ourselves, we should recognise and remove even the last trace of weakness that is working within ourselves. For that we need to have a constant checking about the real cause of the weakness and remove it. Such checking and changing helps me to overcome my weaknesses.
~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu

3. The difference between greatness and mediocrity is often how an individual views a mistake
~ Nelson Boswell

4. Errors become mistakes when we perceive them and respond to them incorrectly.
Mistakes become failures when we continually respond to them incorrectly.

5. Failure is really a matter of conceit. People don't work hard because in their conceit, they imagine they'll succeed without ever making an effort. Most people believe taht they'll wake up some day and find themselves rich. Actually, they got it half right, because eventually they do wake up.
~ Thomas Edison

6. Great minds have purposes; others have wishes.
Little minds are subdued by misfortunes; but great minds rise above them
~ Washington Irving

7. When involved in something new, there is usually more fear for our failure than there is faith in success. So although we put in sufficient efforts towards achieving the target, we are not able to experience success. This fear neither makes us give our best to the task, nor does it ensure our success in anyway. We need to maintain the faith in our mind first about our own success. Because if we think in our mind that we have failed, we have failed even before we have actually attempted the task. What we need is a constant experience of success in the mind, which makes us increase the speed and intensity of our efforts.
~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu

Happiness Is The Present Moment....Enjoy Your Present Moment!!!

The gift of time that can always bring us happiness is the present moment. In remembrance of God and full consciousness of the present we have power over time. We have determination to say " I will do it now". There is no telling what time is going to bring. No knowing what will happen in the next moment. No guarantee for life. So to live each moment with all accounts settled, all duties done, everything completed is to truly live in this moment now. The ever-present company of God reminds us to make the best use of the present.
~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu

Yesterday is but a dream, and tomorrow is only a vision,
but today well lived makes every yesterday a dream of
happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope.
~ unknown

Happiness comes of the capacity to feel deeply, to enjoy
simply, to think freely, to risk life, to be needed.
~ Storm Jameson

Happiness is not a station you arrive at, but a manner of traveling.
~ Margaret B. Runbeck

To find reasons to be happy is to increase happiness. When the mind searches for reasons to be sad and sorrowful, even situations with no great significance are seen with a vision of negativity. So there is constantly an expression of words and actions that reflect the need for sympathy and reassurance. On the other hand, when there is the search for happiness, then everything is positive giving happiness. It is like wearing coloured glasses. Whatever colour my glasses are, the whole world is coloured with it. Then, I am no longer able to perceive and recognize negativity and I am able to remain happy with everything.
~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu

It is not length of life, but depth of life.
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

Make Your Thoughts Positive with Inspiring Quotes

"Be kind and merciful.
Let no one ever come to you without coming away better and happier."
~ Mother Teresa

To be sincere in removing weaknesses is to have the power to overcome them. While it is important to recognize strengths, it is also important to recognize and acknowledge weaknesses. With honesty, when we understand our weaknesses, with sincerity we are able to work towards overcoming them. We are then able to find the right method too. Let us take a positive thought connected to our weakness and remind ourselves of that thought at least 5 times a day. For example,if our weakness is anger, let us remind ourselves of our inherent peace with thoughts like - "I am a being of peace, peace is inherent within me." When we practice sincerely with this we find that strength emerges finishing weakness (peace emerges finishing anger).
~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Remember the five simple rules to be happy:

1. Free your heart from hatred.
2. Free your mind from worries.
3. Live simply.
4. Give more.
5. Expect less.

Learn from the past...
Hope for the future...
Live in the present.
~ Ken Lancaster

No one knows about your honesty or integrity unless you give them examples of it.

There is a little difference in people, but that little difference makes a big difference. That little difference is attitude. The big difference is whether it is positive or negative.
~ W. Clement Stone

Character is doing the right thing when no one is watching.
~ J. C. Watts

To make thoughts as pure as the actions is to be truly elevated. There is usually attention on the self not to perform any negative acts. There is also considerable attention not to speak any words that are harmful or negative. But very rarely is there that attention on the thoughts. Because of this a lot of negative thoughts tend to remain in the intellect causing trouble for me. I need to understand the fact that my thoughts form the basis for my words and actions. The more I pay attention to make my thoughts positive, the more it will have a positive impact on my words and actions too.
~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Confidence Is Key To Success !!!

With confidence, you can reach truly amazing heights; without confidence, even the simplest accomplishments are beyond your grasp.
~ Jim Loehr

One important key to success is self-confidence. An important key to self-confidence is preparation.
~ Arthur Ashe

Confidence is having faith in someone or something. It means you trust that you have what it takes to handle whatever happens. It brings the strength to try new things. I practice confidence when I learn my own strengths and weaknesses, when I practice until I master something, when I am willing to try new things, when I am free from worries.
~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

If you have no confidence in self, you are twice defeated in the race of life. With confidence, you have won even before you have started.
~ Marcus Garvey

Confidence doesn't come out of nowhere. It's a result of something... hours and days and weeks and years of constant work and dedication.
~ Roger Staubach

The ones who have faith are able to believe in succeeding even in the most difficult circumstances. They will never say "I will try to do it" but their words reflect the confidence, which make them say, "I will do it". They are able to make best use of the available resources and also find yet undiscovered resources. When I am able to work with faith and believe in the success of a task, I'll naturally fill it with positive and powerful vibrations. This naturally ensures that the task is successful. Also people provide maximum support, as I am totally committed and confident.
~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.
