"If we can appreciate the destination,
We can understand how to interpret the journey"
|
If we were to learn anything in life, The first rule to learn would be
You get what you give!
Anyone who is successful would tell you that,
there are no free rides,
and there is no magic tricks.
The biggest secret to getting what we want, is not a secret, we have all heard the formula before.
We have all been told that we get what we give, but to some it has lost its meaning, In todays society, It has been Instilled in us that its a dog eat dog world, We have become a lean and mean and win at all costs mentality.
Well, Try this on for size
Would be believe it if i told you that,
You recieve what you give, many times over.
If you want to recieve respect, You have to give respect to others,
If you want to recieve love, You have to give love to others,
If you want to be successful, give people a successful service or product,
If you believe what you are giving is worth recieving, So will others, And in return you will recieve more for your efforts,
If we only give the minimum standard of service and we only provide a budget quality of respect, we cant expect to recieve a premium return, we only get the minimum response in return.
The difference between a successful person and a medioka person, is his devotion to the client. A lot of people believe that the work that they perfom is just a job. Those people are satisfied to perform a set number of hours in return for a set income. There is no effort to achieve, and so there is no effort to satisfy above and beyond minimum requirements of the job. Those that put in that extra effort are soon recognised and rewarded in some way or another by there employer.
What is the definition of success?
What if you went out of your way to give that little extra,
For you to come to find this page, means that you want more than what you are getting now. You want to discover and understand yourself a little better and to find out what it takes for things to be different.
This is my journey and I would like to share with you, my interpretation and understanding of the hows, whys, and what I have come to understand about my life.
It is only when we decide that what it is that we are doing, does not achieve what it is that we set out to accomplish, and if we wish to make a difference, what is it that is required for change to happen.
A simple analogy is,
If we do the same thing,
We get the same results,
If we want something different,
We need to do something different.
We cannot grow if we are selfish,
To grow, we need to put the care of others above our own concern. If all we think about is ourself, all we get is minimum from the world around us, nobody is above anybody else, we all are equal, if we offer more than basic, we gain, if we offer less than basic, we loose. It is as simple as that,
To get to this stage, Some aspects of your life is not what you would like it to be. You have made a decision, that you seek to make a difference.
All we need is for the desire to understand what it takes for a change to happen.
I do not proclaim to know the answers of life, I can only let you know my interpretation of what i have come to understand about me.
What is the destination that we all strive for?
What is it that we all set out to achieve?
What is the purpose of our existance?
We tend to spend all our time worrying about the destination, that we forget about how we would like to spend the journey.
When we are 5, we wish we were 10,
when we are 10, we wish we are 16,
when we are 16, we wish we are 18 or 21 and so on. My wish today, is only to savour and enjoy the moment i have right now, I know longer wish for the future tense in my life, I just appreciate and feel grateful for what it is that i have right now.
The destination is infinite, for me, more importantly, it is the journey right now, that holds more meaning.
Life, in its present tence, is a reflection of our past experiences that we have experienced. We all get to experience the same things in life, It is only our own interpretation of the experience that differs from anybody elses. We all react to things in a different way. The only difference between us all is how we react to the different circumstances. I cannot begin to understand the existance of any other person, untill i begin to understand myself.
We need to be able to view the world in its simplistic form of pureness and love, look for the joy and happiness, instead of the doom and gloom.
Who are we to judge anyone else. We are not above anyone else. We are all equal in our existence.
It is only when we choose to want to learn more about our purpose in life do we take an interest in what it is that is neccessary to accomplish it in order to make a positive change in our world and surroundings. It is only when we decide to want to change the things around us, do we soon rrelise that we can only create change by changing ourselves. When we look for what it is we need to do to make it happen, we soon find that we cannot change people, all we can do is change the circumstances around us, and thus, create a change. It all starts with a conscious believe that we would like to understand ourselves a little more. |
