Everything You Need To Know About The Concept Of Energy Healing

Journey

July 31, 2018

Energy healing has been around for centuries. Different ancient cultures use the body’s energy as a powerful force in their healing modalities.

The Japanese have the Reiki as a traditional energy healing, the traditional Chinese medicine practitioners utilize the Meridians, which are the body’s energy superhighway, and the ancient Hindu texts describe the Chakras, the 7 energy transmission centers of the body.

All these energy healing techniques are based on scientific principles.

Now the question is, can energy healing really cure diseases? To answer this, we need to get deep down into the principles of the energy healing process.

Though some people claim having healed of their diseases quickly through energy healing, these instances are rare. Energy healing is not like a magic wand that takes care of your health. It’s a traditional practice and something worth examining.

Here Are 3 Main Things You Need To Know About This Concept Of Energy Healing:

1. It is holistic.

This means energy healing doesn’t focus only on one particular symptom or body part.

Rather, the focus involves the overall aspects of the spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical.

The healing must come first from the level of pure consciousness down to the physical.

Energy healing comes from pure love. Love is the ultimate healer of all. Love alone releases fears, which are the primary cause of disease.

Fears prevent you from fully experiencing love, health, abundance, and other pleasures of life that you deserve. It’s only when you allow love to flow that you’ll be totally healed.

2. It is a process.

Energy healing is a process that requires you to have the pure intent of wanting to get healed. Along with this, you must be prepared to have a shift in consciousness and a lifestyle change.

The time it takes to heal depends solely on you. The progress becomes faster if you’re able to receive an intuitive guidance from the healer during the post healing summary.

This, in a way, helps you to expand your consciousness, awakening your hidden gifts that could include self healing.

Energy healing is, therefore, not an elixir that takes your symptoms right away. It’s not even permanent because staying healthy depends on your commitment to yourself and to your lifestyle changes.

Energy healing doesn’t suppress symptoms nor does it removes your illness away. It involves the process of peeling away the layers of yourself that obscures your truth and exposing the core wounds that cause your disease.

Once these wounds are exposed, healing begins. The wisdom you get from this experience will eventually be integrated into your consciousness.

Before the healing procedure takes place, the focus of healing must be determined, the process must be discussed as well as the expectations.

During the healing process, the practitioner scans the energy body that includes the aura and chakras for abnormalities and then repairs them energetically.

After the healing, lifestyle changes and self care routines must be discussed to correct the causes of the imbalances and the energetic healing must also be manifested in other areas, such as the mental, emotional, and physical levels.

3. It takes faith.

Without faith, healing can’t take place. A genuine faith is important for the healing to manifest. You also need to trust in the ability of the healer to help you heal. And you need to have the same faith to sustain you throughout the post healing process.

Your beliefs create your reality. Hence, you need to have the right beliefs.

The energy healers are not there to give you something that you need. They’re only there to assist. You already have what it takes to heal yourself, but because you don’t know the process, you need someone to facilitate you in the healing journey.

It is more about discovering yourself, gaining your personal power back, and using your divinity to live the life you love. Energy healers are there to assist you, but your self-healing faith is what makes everything possible.

As Dr. Bruce Lipton says, “The moment you change your perception, is the moment you rewrite your chemistry in your body.“

There Are 9 Different Types Of Intelligence Aside From IQ That Are Less Recognized

Psychology

Nezel Padayhag

July 30, 2018

“Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will spend its whole life thinking it is stupid.“ — Albert Einstein

Intelligence is defined as the ability to acquire and apply knowledge and skills. But knowledge and skills are not found just within the conscious mental realm.

Intelligence is within us all. Your organism is intelligent beyond your conscious awareness. It knows exactly how to function without you even knowing anything about biology.

Intelligence is not something that can be measured. Mental capacity, common sense, logic, pattern recognition, yes. Those things can be measured.

But that’s not what Intelligence is. Those things are just ways Intelligence expresses itself, and comparing them is absurd.

Someone who has normal IQ might create the most profound pieces of music that have ever existed. And someone who has high IQ might not even be able to play a piano.

The problem in the present system is the neglect of the difference how Intelligence expresses. There are actually 9 different types of intelligence according to some.

The Problem In The Present System:

The sad fact is, in our modern day, the design of our school system tends to favor only one type of intelligence.

Despite the individual differences of students, all of them follow only one system, one form of intelligence assessment, and one form of tests.

This makes students pass or fail based on narrow criteria. If you’re great at linear, analytical, and hyperlexic skills, then probably, you do well in school.

But for others whose expertise isn’t aligned in these areas, they are bound to end up at the bottom of the class.

They are not unintelligent, however, they don’t do well because they’re confronted with tests that don’t fit with the way their mind works.

Even if they’re intelligent in other ways, they’re still told they are wrong because there is no assessment in the kind of intelligence that they have.

Children are creative. They have great navigational skills. That is why it’s hard to keep them still. If children fail in school, it’s not their own fault, it’s not the teacher’s fault either.

The fault is in the system. The children’s booming intelligence is being cut short before it even takes root just because it doesn’t fit with what the system requires.

Recognizing other forms of intelligence is crucial in creating a society that is able to thrive, invent and evolve.

When we acknowledge other forms of intelligence, we acknowledge the greatness that each one of us has been endowed with.

The 9 Less Known Types Of Intelligence:

1. Musical Intelligence

People who are intelligent in music have the ability to recognize sounds and tones faster than anyone does. They appreciate music and rhythm, have good ears for music, learn songs easily, and quickly notice when someone sings off key. They are gifted in singing, composing songs or playing musical instruments.

2. Spatial Intelligence

People with spatial intelligence deal with spatial judgment and are able to visualize with the mind’s eye. They have the spatial skills to solve navigational problems, able to visualize objects from different angles and spaces, recognize faces or scenes quickly, and are keen on details.

3. Bodily Or Kinesthetic Intelligence

Learning through movement and experimentation are the strengths of kinesthetic intelligent people. They are great at sports and activities that require physical exertion and mastery. Some of them follow the artistic pull of dancing or any creative movement. Acting and performing in an audience come easily for them.

4. Naturalist Intelligence

People possessing a naturalist intelligence appreciate nature, the plants, and animals. They are sensitive to anything that relates to nature, especially to their natural surroundings. It’s like they can speak another language, the language of nature. They have the gift of growing plants, vegetables, and fruits. It’s easy for them to train animals.

5. Navigational Intelligence

People with navigational intelligence have the ability to steer through a host of demands using data of background scanning. They make decisions based on principles in any given situation.

6. Creative Intelligence

Creative intelligent people are unconventional, anarchic, flexible, and open. They have the ability to understand how the creative process works as well as how to apply it. Whenever they see a need, they’re able to observe ways of solving that need.

7. Sensory Intelligence

Sensory intelligence is having the insight and awareness of the primitive wiring in our brain and how we apply it in our daily existence. People with sensory intelligence are able to interpret and interact with the world using sensory filters through their senses.

8. Emotional Intelligence

Emotionally intelligent people are able to identify and manage their own emotions and the emotions of others. They’re good at discerning emotions and label them appropriately. They gather emotional information and use them to guide their thinking and behavior. They don’t have difficulty managing their emotions or adjusting it to adapt to the environment.

9. Intuitive Intelligence

Intuitive intelligence goes beyond science and analytics. People with this intelligence are able to connect the realms of reality and imagination, reason and instinct, material and spiritual dimensions. They think holistically and establish connections between themselves and others.

Not one person excels in all types of intelligence, but all of us are more or less intelligent in all these types. We are just different mixes of them all. In whatever criteria your intelligence falls, know that the world needs you and is waiting for the contribution you are to impart to the world.

Motivation

Every person, once they take a glimpse of their purpose, once their heart fills up with joy, motivation and excitement, thinks they can tackle anything on their way.

But as you start following your purpose, the joy, motivation and excitement slowly fade away because that’s normal for emotions. The path gets harder. You start facing obstacles.

Suddenly the people around you, people you love and care about turn against you. Some friends might even ridicule you. Others might think you are crazy.

Many people judge you, they question your sanity, you might even question your own sanity. False opportunities open up, distractions multiply.

Suddenly it seems that everyone around you is having more fun than ever but you have to follow your purpose.

You have to do things that bring you closer to your dream.

And let’s be clear, most of the things you need to do are not fun at all. They are mundane tasks that are necessary.

You might even doubt if it’s worth it.

And as you doubt there will be just enough push from The Universe and signs around you to remind you why you fo what you do.

And you will have just enough will to continue, if you choose to. And as you continue, more obstacles will come.

There will be moments all you want is to just take a breath, to pause for a second, but in those moments problems will arise. They will try to kick you when you are down.

And if you quit, you will be relieved for a day. But the next day you will do anything to not have quitted.

Because when we are tired we want to rest, when we are cold we want to be hot, when we are thirsty all we want is to drink something.

But if we drink something unhealthy, at first we will feel better, but later we will regret. We regret it because it’s not what we really wanted.

It’s because our mind knows what you want momentarily, but if you listen to your heart it knows what you really want. And sometimes, what you really want will not be comfortable.

So as you follow your purpose, and as these obstacles start ganging up on you, beating you down, do not quit.

Take the beating, get up, brush up.

Look at them, look at them straight at their eyes, smile and keep doing what you did.

You will get closer to your dream, and then problems will arise again. And they will still try to beat you up.

But again, get up.

Brush up.

Look at them straight.

Smile and keep going even harder at tackling your dream.

People will judge, problems and obstacles will arise, distractions will show, you will doubt yourself, you will feel confused, you’ll be tired.

But if you don’t quit everything will pass.

As these things try to knock you down, they might sometimes succeed. But it’s ok. It’s not about who is stronger, it’s about who is more persistent.

Get up, brush off, look straight, and love even stronger!

And there will come a moment when these things cannot even hurt you anymore because their beating has made you stronger.

And you’ll thank them as you make your beautiful dream a reality and follow your purpose.

Most people don’t know how powerful deep breathing can be.

The past couple of months we focused on activities you should do, how you should improve your nutrition and eating habits.

This month we will do something easier and simpler, however, something that has possibly the highest potential of improving the quality of your life.

Most people don’t know how to breathe properly.

They do not activate their full breathing capacity. However, when you breathe fully you refresh your whole being.

You won’t believe how good you will feel just after 1 minute of deep breathing. But if you manage to make it a daily habit you will drastically improve the quality of your life.

Practice deep breathing each day for 5 minutes!

The best time to do this is different for everyone and different days might even demand different moments when you should practice it.

However, if you want to make it a habit, choose what’s better for you, mornings or evenings, and create a reminder to take deep breathes for 5 minutes.

Find a relaxing position, or you can do it standing if you can’t find where to sit. And just breathe. Inhale fully in 3 seconds, hold 4 seconds, exhale in 5 seconds.

Do this for 5 minutes each day and notice how you feel after each session. This is a powerful habit for relaxation, bringing mind clarity and refreshing your emotions.

It’s also purifying for your body and spirit as deep breathes activate your full breathing capacity and take away negativity.

6 Ways How To Tap Into Your Heart’s Intelligence And Wisdom

Journey

Nezel Padayhag

July 28, 2018

In life, you may have certainly been in a situation where you need to decide between the contradictory opinions of your heart and your mind.

Things become more difficult when people remind you that your head is where your brain is because it’s higher. Though your heart is protesting, you follow what looks logical and correct.

For decisions involving the most correct choice, like whether or not you should dump a narcissist partner, it’s only wiser to decide with the mind.

However, the function of your heart goes far beyond supporting life.

The heart is also an intelligent organ that interferes with your decision making process, the reason why it wants to be given due consideration at times.

How To Tap Into Your Heart’s Intelligence And Wisdom:

The heart as Hridaya

Researcher Gregg Braden has dug into the ancient technique of using the heart as an intelligent organ.

The functions of the heart go far beyond supporting life and sending blood all throughout the body. It has a wisdom that’s not influenced by the ego.

As such, it gives you information from a neutral place. Your heart knows your past, present, and future. Since it does not have any egoic tendencies, it always has your best interest at heart.

The Sanskrit word Hridaya, which comes from ‘Hrid’ meaning ‘center’, and ‘Ayam’ meaning ‘this’, describes the heart’s intellect as the energy that is contained within the heart chakra.

More than a physical heart, it also is a spiritual heart that contains the intelligence of God or the transcendental mind.

This spiritual heart sees to it that you perceive things from your center and not stray away from your Highest Self.

The yogi Bhagavan describes the heart center as a seat of Pure Consciousness, realized Existence, Knowledge, and Bliss.

The mind of your brain operates from your past experiences and past erroneous beliefs assigned to those experiences. In short, it creates false perceptions just to arrive what for you is the ‘right’ answer, even topping those false concepts with emotional investment.

The Heart’s Neurobiology

The neurobiology of the heart has this significant points:

– The heart has more fibers leading to the brain than from the brain to the heart, making more communication to take place in the heart.

– The heart of an unborn fetus beats before the brain has been formed. And humans form an emotional brain before a rational one.

– The heart has an independent complex nervous system known as the ‘brain of the heart.’

– The heart can create coherence in the body through its rhythm.

– The heart’s electromagnetic field is greater than that of the brain, which can be detected several feet away.

– The heart has wisdom.

The wisdom of the heart is what provides us with clear decisions that are being governed by our highest self. Gregg Braden suggests the following tips to tap into the heart’s intelligence.

6 Tips On Tapping Into The Heart’s Intelligence

1. Focus on your heart with the intention of seeking its intelligence.

2. Breathe slowly to calm your nerves and silence your brain.

3. Have a deep sense of gratitude, compassion, and love to activate the heart’s energy.

4. Ask a brief and accurate question to your heart.

5. Notice the different feelings or bodily sensations.

6. Keep this practice regularly.

The heart’s intelligence is subjective and wouldn’t be the same for everyone. You may feel butterflies in the gut, a warm sensation throughout your body, or tingling in the fingertips. Or, you might even receive a clear, short and kind answer in your mind.

Establishing this deeper connection with your heart takes time. Persist with the practice and listen to your heart more.

There’s no reward as great as listening to your heart that’s leading you to your purpose.

How ‘Knowing Thyself’ Became The Greatest Life Principle Of Socrates

Philosophy

Nezel Padayhag

July 27, 2018

Socrates, the classical Greek philosopher, left a great influence on ancient and modern philosophy.

Though he made no writings of himself, he was known through the accounts of the classical writers who followed him, particularly his students Plato and Xenophon.

Socrates is considered the father of western philosophy. His way of teaching doesn’t focus on imparting knowledge, but on asking questions.

Hence, he made famous the maxim, ‘knowing thyself.’ Socrates didn’t formulate this maxim.

He stumbled upon these magnificent words on a typical day while he waited for an answer to a specific question.

How ‘Knowing Thyself’ Became The Greatest Life Principle:

The story goes that a debate arose as to who was the wisest person in the land. Many believed it was Socrates.

But Socrates discredited himself, saying he knew his ignorance really well. With so many questions in mind, he talked to different people including politicians, artisans, and craftsmen to know what was good, true, and beautiful for them.

What Socrates found out was that, though the people knew a lot of things concerning their expertise, most of them thought they knew more than they actually did. They showed this by talking about stuff they knew nothing about.

During those times, there was one person whom they considered had all the answers to many mysteries, Pythia, the Oracle of Delphi.

She was a woman who was highly esteemed and properly fed. Being too confused with his own wisdom, Socrates decided to consult the Oracle.

A priest was assigned at the temple gate to relay anyone’s question to the Oracle. When Socrates arrived, he delivered his question to the priest, who then left him to relay the message to the Oracle.

After the priest relayed the visitor’s question, the Oracle went into a trance and began speaking in a heavenly language, which a group of priests translated. Then the priest returned to Socrates to deliver the Oracle’s answer.

But while the priest was gone, Socrates happened to look up and saw an inscription above the temple gates that read, “Gnothi Seauton”, translated as ‘Know thyself.’

Upon the priest’s return, he gave Socrates the Oracle’s answer, “Oracle says that you’re the wisest cat out there, so you got that going for you.” This left Socrates astounded because he knew how his ignorance kept him into asking questions.

He then realized, maybe what made him wise were his ability not to assume anything and his willingness to ask questions in order to learn.

And from here, Socrates gave more emphasis on the examination of ones’ self. One of his famous quotes even says, “An unexamined life is not worth living.”

What Does KNOW THYSELF Really Mean:

So, what does ‘know thyself’ holds for us? This might mean operating from the center of who we are, without assuming things or pretending to know things we knew nothing about.

Discovering the mystery that engulfs our beingness is a worthwhile and the most important undertaking we would ever venture into.

Whatever our beliefs, dogmas, background, and inclinations are, they all reflect by how well we know ourselves and how well we’re able to express the enormous beauty behind our souls.

Socrates says knowing thyself is an act of self love. True love of self is being able to share that love with others without expecting anything.

6 Tricks To Shift Your Mental Focus From Negative To Positive

A positive mind helps raise your vibration. Having a higher vibration helps you align yourself with your purpose and your higher self.

But then, having a positive perspective isn’t always easy. There are a lot of things around that could take away your focus.

Even if you’re not directly affected by external negative forces, your past programming may catch you off guard. And there you are again focusing on thoughts that drain your energy without your awareness.

Being always aware of your thoughts is key, but it would take a lot of effort on your part. There’s no need to worry, though. There are tricks that you can employ to shift your negative mental focus into a positive one.

For some, one trick does it. But if it isn’t enough, you can employ two or more.

Use these tricks often to stay positive until they become a habit. Once they become your habit, you can still stay grounded even during the hard knocks of life.

6 Tricks To Shift Your Mental Focus To Positive:

1. Look for the most beautiful sight around you.

Seeing a true beauty like a sunset or sunrise simply shifts your focus to a more positive one.

When they’re not accessible, gaze around you and find something beautiful, such as a smiling person, a beautiful flower, a car of your favorite color, or a lovely couple.

Anything that touches your soul has the power to raise your vibes and shift your perception.

2. Recall happy memories.

When you catch yourself thinking negatively or feeling low, think of some happy memories.

They might be a moment at a party, having your first pet, climbing a tree for the first time, the arrival of a new family member, something you thought was serious but now is funny.

Recalling even one happy memory is enough to shift your thinking and feeling into a positive one.

3. Look forward to some exciting activity you want to do in the future.

Planning something to do in the future is fun and exciting. You feel the thrill just by thinking of it.

So, when you have a hard time shaking off some negative thoughts, try to look forward to your future plans.

It must be exciting to see yourself enjoying your most awaited vacation. This not only shifts your mental focus but also increases your vibration.

4. Make a gratitude list.

When your mind dwells on the negative things in life, your focus is mostly on the things that you don’t have or want to avoid.

Take yourself away from this place by listing down the things that you’re most grateful for. As you do this you shift from a place of scarcity to a place of abundance.

List as many as you’d like until you feel your mind vibrates from a positive space. This will show you how much you really have but tend to ignore.

5. Imagine being hugged by the people you love.

Being hugged by someone you love is one of the most beautiful feelings there is in the world. But if it’s not available, use your mind.

Visualize yourself being hugged by someone you love. Feel the warmth of that loving embrace and imagine what you would say to your loved one.

You can also imagine hugging your pet, your friends, and anybody you care about. Your thoughts will instantly shift and your emotions will become loving and positive.

6. Stop what you are doing, breathe, and come to the present moment.

When you feel negative emotions and negative thoughts rush through your mind, just stop. Take a look around you, try to sense what you feel, breathe. Breathe deeply for a minute.

This will bring you to the present moment and the present moment will remind you of your power. Reminding yourself of your personal power will shift your mental focus into positive.

You may not have the power to control the thoughts that come into your mind, but you do have the power and ability to choose what you want to focus on.

12 Things You Should Stop Doing To Become Mentally Strong

12 Things You Should Stop Doing To Become Mentally Strong

Becoming mentally strong is a key to attaining your full potential. It helps you navigate through life on a day to day basis without being too affected by a harsh colleague, a disrespectful cab driver, and practically every obstacle that life throws at you.

It takes mental toughness to handle these situations with composure and ease. Mentally strong people stand apart from the crowd because of this ability. They’re able to cope with the difficulties in life because they see obstacles as opportunities.

Being mentally strong is not something you are born with, it’s something you cultivate with your lifestyle and habits. It does not mean you should start a strict training but simply stop doing things that make you mentally weak or prevent you to become mentally strong.

When you stop doing these things most of the population does, you’ll soon find life is not as hard as you think. At least, it’s how mentally strong people see it.

12 Things You Should Stop To Become Mentally Strong:

1. Stop being scared of being alone.

Some people dread being alone. They’d rather be in a bad company than being alone.

Mentally strong people would rather be alone than spend time with people they don’t resonate with. In fact, they prefer to have alone time in their day.

Being alone has nothing to do with being lonely. An alone time is an opportunity to be in touch with your inner self, with your emotions and thoughts. It’s time to reconnect with yourself. It helps you reboot your mind and unwind. When your mind is revitalized, you act more than you react in situations.

2. Stop dwelling on your past and worrying for the future.

The past is a gone. The future is yet to be created.

Worrying or thinking about the things that you should have done doesn’t make any wrong right, doesn’t make any regret go away. However, it keeps you in the same loop of missing out the present and accumulating more regrets.

Mentally strong people have a daily habit of coming to the present moment. They focus on the present moment and from there they decide how they can improve themselves and their life. Thinking from the present moment gives much more rational decisions.

3. Stop believing the world owes you anything.

The world doesn’t owe you a thing.

The world is free for everyone. We live within man made rules and we play accordingly to society. But in reality you are free, everything is free. And the world doesn’t owe you a thing. If you manage to find food, shelter and connection to survive, good. if not, it’s your fault. But nobody owes you a thing. If you want something you find a way to get it, but it’s your responsibility, no one else’s.

If you do things, you do them for yourself whether the world notices it or not. Stop believing that the world will appreciate you instantly for your good deeds. Recognition will come in due time, but let it not be a driving force that motivates you to do good.

4. Stop expecting immediate results.

Take the lesson from nature.

It has its own seasons, tides, birth and death. This means the result that you’re waiting and expecting for will come in its due time.

Continue to do the right things and sooner or later, the reward will come to you.

5. Stop trying to please everyone.

Finding balance in your life means saying yes and no.

Say yes when you can and say no when you can’t. Say yes for the things you want and no for the things you don’t want. That’s what mentally strong people do best, they will turn down something that does not resonate with them unapologetically.

If you say yes to everyone all the time, you’ll soon deplete your reserves and resources and you’ll lose yourself in the process. On the other hand, people will come to abuse your kindness if they know you can’t say no to them.

6. Stop feeling sorry for yourself.

Everybody gets hurt at a certain point in life. Don’t think that your sufferings are greater than those of others. And even if it is really greater, it’s not for comparison.

Mentally strong people show kindness to others because they empathize with the fact that we are all fighting a hard battle. Don’t limit yourself by pitying yourself. It will get you nowhere.

Instead of dwelling on the negative things in your life, be grateful for the things that you have and show some kindness to others. This way, your focus will shift to the positive things in your life.

7. Stop wasting your energy on things you can’t control.

Some things are in your control and some aren’t.

Your thoughts, feelings, and actions are under your control. So, keep your focus on them. Change the things that you can. Those that you can’t, let them go.

Mentally strong people put their time and energy in things they can control and embrace things they can’t. They don’t waste their energy to change the waves but to surf them, they don’t try to change the winds but adjust their sails and use them in their advantage.

8. Stop allowing others to be responsible of your emotions.

Be in control of your emotions. It’s ok to feel bad, but it’s not ok to make others responsible for your emotions.

Let’s say your best friend finds a new best buddy and you feel rejected. It’s not their responsibility you feel rejected, it’s your emotion. It’s telling you something. Analyze it, learn from it, hear its message. You might discover some inner wound or fear of rejection.

Emotions are the language of your soul that’s communicated through your feelings. They hold powerful messages. You have the power to influence your emotions and thoughts. Exercise that power rightly. Mentally strong people do not react to their emotions, they use them for direction and growth because they take responsibility for what they feel.

9. Stop resenting the success of others.

Resentment for the success of others starts in your unconscious habit of comparing yourself with others.

You compare your own goodness with other people’s results. Do you see the fallacy in this way of thinking? You don’t know their path, you don’t know what they went through and it’s not your path, it has nothing to do with you. Yet, you argue it’s you who should have their results or that they don’t deserve those results.

Let me tell you two facts. The first fact is, your journey is different from that of others. The second fact is, if a result is achieved, it’s deserved. Mentally strong people see what worked and use it for their success instead of accumulating negative emotions by comparing things that have nothing to do with each other. Other people’s success doesn’t mean you’re a failure, it means there is something you can learn from them.

10. Stop avoiding your daily responsibilities.

Face your daily responsibilities because they’re stepping stones bringing you closer to your goals. If you don’t find meaning in doing something, don’t do it. If you need to do something to get somewhere you want to get, stop postponing and do it.

There are responsibilities outside of your control, but they need to be dealt with. Stop asking why, of all your siblings, the responsibility of taking care of your sick parent falls on you. If you are there to help them it’s your responsibility.

Mentally strong people tackle their responsibilities without checking an imaginary scoreboard. If they need to do something, they do it. If something falls on their lap, they deal with it. They use those opportunities to grow.

11. Stop giving up after the first few tries.

The greatest athletes, entrepreneurs, and other successful people on Earth didn’t earn their success from their first attempt. Every highly successful person failed more times than most unsuccessful people ever did.

But it’s not about failures, it’s about what you want to achieve and finding ways to do it. It’s about how much you want to succeed. It’s not about going through trail and error and facing challenges, it’s about being willing to do all of it in order to succeed.

Of course you will fail, who can guess the right way of doing something from the first try? Failures are steps you need to take in order to reach the top. Mentally strong people do not even perceive failures, they just evaluate if what they want is worth it. If it is, they give all.

12. Stop being scared of calculated risks.

Take calculated risks. Calculated risk is said to be the difference between an ordinary and extraordinary life. If you want that extraordinary life, then go for your dreams no matter what it takes.

Use the fears lurking around to your advantage. Write down the pros and cons and the strategies you will use in case if it doesn’t work. Having a back up plan will ease your anxiety and it will give you a more positive outlook.

Positivity keeps you grounded even if things won’t work out fine. But when they do, you’d be thankful for taking those risks. Mentally strong people tend to push their limits in a calculated manner. They will either have a lesson or result. That’s how they grow.
