Rules of harmonious life
1. Any big one starts small.
The jug is not immediately full – it is filled with water gradually, starting with the first drop. Every professional in his field was once a student. No one can read and write without learning the alphabet, succeed and become great in one day. Success and skill comes to someone who is ready to start with the basics and work hard, mastering new knowledge and skills until a drop by drop filled with them.
2. Thoughts are material.
Everything that exists in our consciousness ultimately materializes and surrounds us. You are what you think. If a person lives, acts and communicates with negative thoughts inside, then pain accompanies him in everything. If a person acts with pure thoughts, then happiness always follows him, which will never disappear. To live in harmony, you need to fill the brain with harmonious and bright thoughts. Positive thinking gives not only a harmonious development, but also helps to materialize all your desires; negative is a constant source of evil, which eventually destroys the owner, materializing all the negative. All our actions are based on the dictates of reason. If the mind is changed, cleaned and reconfigured for a wave of kindness, and actions, respectively, and changing.
3. Forgiveness.
To restrain offense, anger and irritation – all the same that to put inside a burning head, intending to throw it in the offender, however you will burn, smoldering from within. By freeing all those whom you have voluntarily imprisoned in your own "prison of no forgiveness", you eventually free yourself. It is impossible to suppress others, without suppressing, first of all, yourself. Master the art of forgiveness as quickly as possible, free yourself from the shackles of anger and resentment.
4. Only by acting, you develop.
To speed up self-development, you need to do things every day. Success is for everyone, but only those who perform actions, constantly making efforts and moving forward, will be able to feel it.
5. Strive for understanding.
First of all, try to understand, and only then - to be understood. Direct your efforts to understand the motivation of the other person. Having listened to the other, having understood his point of view, you find harmony and happiness. But it is much more important to be happy than to be right.
6. One victory over a – more important victory in a hundred battles.
This victory is only yours and no one can take it away from you. And to achieve such a victory is possible only by defeating your own mind. Strive for complete control over thoughts, they should not live their lives, resembling gusts of wind in a hurricane. You can't prevent the thought from coming, but only in your power to allow or forbid it to stay with you for a long time.
7. Live harmoniously.
Harmony is within you, in your heart. It is useless to seek it outside. The search for harmony in the world is a way to escape from reality and yourself. Do not try to replace the concept of harmony and happiness with new relationships, work, money. Always remember that true harmony is peace and joy in the soul, and they originate only within you.
8. Remember to be grateful.
There's always something to be thankful for in our lives. The universe gives all the possible benefits necessary for our harmonious development. Right now, find at least 10 things that you feel truly grateful for. After all, not everyone saw the colors of this morning; yesterday some fell asleep forever! Gratitude is the key to the source of all good.
