I am not what happened to me – Carl Jung
This is a stunning quote about the power of resolve. We don’t have any control over our circumstances. But how we react to our situation depends on us. We are not defined by our circumstances. Our character tells us what to do about the things that happen to us. These lead us to actions which eventually define the outcome.
Making mistakes is better than faking perfection
Making mistakes is better than faking perfection: This quote is a beautiful reminder about the perils of perfection. It also opens a debate about progress vs perfection and why being perfect is bad. As much as I like the idea of perfection, it is stressful and unrealistic. The most important point is that it doesn’t allow us to make mistakes and learn from them. The beauty of making mistakes is in learning from feedback and finding ways to move forward. It supports the idea of growth, not obsessing over mistakes and finding the strength to move forward.
6 People Who Don’t Deserve Your Stories – Brene Brown
This article is about 6 types of people who don’t deserve your stories. We all have a story of success, failure, pain and joy to share. However, not all people deserve these stories. In fact, we have to make sure that our inner circle is made of people with whom we maintain a high level … Read more
You Can’t Judge People Because They Sin Differently Than You!
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.
Do Not Judge me By My Successes, Judge By Failures
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.
Don’t be embarrassed by your failures, learn from them and start again!
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 isn’t worth having unless its The Freedom To Make Mistakes
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 – Terry Pratchett
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
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.
