It happens unconsciously, yet a powerful way of massaging our own ego. It is scary if we try to understand the reasons why we try to do this. Hence, a powerful reminder about judging people because if we keep judging them, we have very little time to love them.
Meaning of Do Not Judge me by my Successes – Success has a bad habit of painting a rosy picture. And somehow we belong to a culture where failures are brutally criticised and successes hailed to glory. However, at the core of it – these are merely outcomes. The successes manifest as favourable ones while the failures don’t. Ultimately both success and failure have a message for us.
Failures are hard to deal with. It is worse when you start worrying about your emotional connections to an outcome. The results will do enough to hurt us and make us feel sad. If we start worrying about letting ourselves or others down and move into the rabbit hole of an emotional conundrum, there’s no hope for success.
Freedom to make mistakes: I love this quote by Mahatma Gandhi – Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes. In this article, we talk about freedom in your own personal/individual life. Freedom is reflective of choices and the ability to define the path of our lives. In this article, we discuss what these choices mean, mistakes and how well we take ownership of these choices. Ultimately, the freedom to make mistakes is ours to own completely. If these mistakes help us grow and achieve our dreams, then I’d argue that these are the most important things in your life.
Wisdom Comes from Experience: This quote represents a certain amount of irony but I cannot find a truer one for the quote of the day section today. I’ve often debated this thought in my head about experience vs wisdom. I hate making mistakes – particularly the ones that have a negative impact on me. Even with that, I can look back at my experiences and can see quite a few of them which are great learning experiences!
Don’t Speak Unless You Can Improve Silence: In a world where talking is rated as one of the top skills, I want to talk about silence today. Most times, silence is misunderstood as weakness or someone not having an opinion. However, it has a beautiful role to play, if particularly positioned to add value to a conversation. That’s what today’s quote is all about – the value of silence and making a difference in a conversation.
Meaning and analysis of William Penn’s quote – right is right and wrong is wrong. It asks us to question our decisions before blindly following a group which might not know the right direction in the first place.
Determination_ Failure will never overtake me – Og Mandino : This quote talks about failures, spirit of determination and the strength in carrying along even when things go wrong. The human spirit is capable of amazing outomces, if we are determined enough, we can make these magical outcomes a reality in life
Contrary to common beliefs – fears have a purpose. A problem shared might be a problem halved, but only if both people are working on the problem. A fear however doesn’t reduce by sharing. It can increase. Be careful while sharing your fears. As Robert Lous Stevenson says – keep your fears to yourself. Instead, share courage, optimism and help. These have a better way of giving you the desired results.
