Learn to ignore to find peace !!!

Posted on

Life has many ups and downs; some of the things may happen according to your wishes, but there are other things which just take away your peace. If you start fretting and fuming over the ones that go wrong and hang on to those memories, then, believe me life is going to be one long whine. Learn to ignore and you will find peace.

As people grow older a certain amount of rigidity sets in not only in various parts of their bodies but in their mind sets as well. Very small deviations are enough to trigger strong reactions. Very often people start interfering in the lives of others; they should slow down and stopped interfering – especially in the lives of their children.  They must invest their energies in something productive which will also give them peace. They must learn to ignore if they want to find true happiness. ~Latika Teotia

My ‘yes’ is very very exclusive !!!

Posted on

Saying yes comes very easily to me and, more often than not, I get into situations that could have been avoided by using the magical two letter word, ‘NO’. Then I sit back and regret having said yes to something which is guaranteed to take away my peace of mind. So, enough of pandering to others, enough of indulging those who do not help me grow enough of saying ‘yes’ to those who are not good for my well being. I have consciously decided to be very very choosy about saying yes. I will say yes to my happiness, peace and growth. My ‘yes’ will also be given to those who inspire me and who motivate me to reach higher.  ~Latika Teotia

Stop criticizing, start appreciating !!!

Posted on

Be appreciative about others, don’t criticize or crib about them. Gossiping will only fill you with negativity. Speak well about others. Positivity begets positivity. Don’t be in a hurry to pass judgment or criticize, check yourself before you do. It’ll pass- once you make a deliberate effort to be positive. If you can’t speak well of others then you have no right to speak ill either. A critical attitude spoils everything. You aren’t happy; in turn you don’t give your best, resultantly you get ticked off. Because you get ticked off you crib and criticize little realizing that you started this vicious circle in the first place.

What, then, is the solution ??? It’s simple. Learn to see the good in everything and, more importantly, ignore the bad. Don’t go to the garden to see only those patches where there’s no grass, the beds where the flowers have not been able to bloom or the places where there are overgrown hedges. Instead go to relax, see the flowers in full bloom. Be thankful that you have sight to see things. Don’t criticize the elevator that broke down this morning- be thankful that you are strong enough to climb stairs. Don’t find fault with your boss and your job- be grateful that you have a job. Don’t look at the world through a tainted window- clean it first and you will realize that it’s bright and sunny outside. ~Latika Teotia

Never hesitate to change !!!

Posted on

There’s no such thing as “good time” or “bad time” to change and its most certainly never too late to carry out mid course corrections whether in your relationship or even in your life. Once you realise that the road you have been walking on is not the right one and that it will not bring happiness, then, just change it. Don’t regret having walked this far on that road; be happy that it brought you to some place at least- to the place you now stand today. It’s an experience and you are that much wiser and that much richer from it. Now you can take a better and well thought out decision to change. Go for it.

Say ‘YES’ to your soul and ‘NO’ to limitations !!!

Posted on

Most of us have grown up in an environment where there were too many ‘No’s and limitations. We, therefore, get moulded to living within the confines of these self made boundaries where our world has been shrunk. Fulfilling our innermost desires makes us feel guilty and we are forever in this denial mode- perhaps a fallout of our childhood when lots of things were beyond our reach. It’s high time that we got rid of this habit and start living for our soul. Break free and follow your heart; live those dreams which you so desperately want to live. After all we have only one life and it’s our duty to do justice to ourselves too. Fulfilling desires and living the life we want is not a crime. So spread your wings and live for your own self. It’s your life and you deserve the best without any limits.~Latika Teotia

Live life to the brim !!!

Posted on

I will live life to the brim. I shall do what gives me happiness. No more shall I live in fear or anxiety dreading the future. I choose the present moment and I shall seize every opportunity to do anything that gives me happiness. God created us in His image and wanted us to remain happy so why should I live otherwise??? ~Latika Teotia

Holy Spirit coat my heart with compassion !!!

Posted on

O Lord, fill my heart with compassion, let me be gentle and kind. Let me not ignore those that need my help. Make me overcome my fears, turn my weakness into strength and help me discover my hidden strength. Give me the wisdom to differentiate between good and evil. Let me welcome each day with hope and happiness~ Latika Teotia

Try to find happiness within your relationship !!!

Posted on

More often than not we blame others for our faults and are forever searching for excuses to pass the buck- especially in relationships. This is because we ourselves are weak and lacking. The fallout is that we start looking beyond our partners. This is the beginning of our downfall. Arrest this tendency and find happiness within your relationship. ~Latika Teotia
