Learning is living:
Never ever stop learning. you may think you know a lot, but because you keep an open heart and mind you learn so much everyday. I believe we must keep learning till we die, cause knowledge is what helps us to make our dreams a reality. We are the products of what we know. Every line we read becomes a part of our living. Learn a few lines of a new language, read that part of the newspaper you normally avoid, start a new book.
Listen more than you talk:
We often spend our day not giving a second thought to how much we talk or listen. More often than we like we will find ourselves talking more than we listen. Think about your day and calculate the percentage. The more we listen and the less we talk, the more we will learn and understand life. We live not by talking way too much, but we LIVE by lending a listening ear to someone who truly needs it. Perhaps in all your talking you missed how upset your colleague/friend was. Listen so that you may LIVE more fully. In every conversation I have in everyday, I make it a point to ask “How are YOU? Is there something I can do for you?”. Ask, and then listen.
Be Positive:
Easier said than done…is that what you’re thinking? My whole life is based on positive thinking, but it all starts with every thought of everyday. I make an effort to identify my negative thoughts and remind myself that they are part of my own self doubt. I replace each of these negative thoughts with positive ones and LIVE a completely content life. I find my own solutions and dont allow others to affect my positive frame of mind. If I can do it, so can you!
