Mayura It is on the basis of actions that praise is received. The one who only talks but is not able to put his talk into practice does not become worthy of praise. On the other hand, the one who is able to bring his good thoughts and words into action becomes worthy of praise. Such a person's actions become inspirational for others and encourage them to follow him. When we are able to act according to our thoughts and words, we are able to take inspiration to do more. For every positive action that we do, we experience support and good wishes from others which encourage us constantly. Our account of positivity is always full and it takes me further to a cycle of positivity making it a habit. So we find that we don't have to work hard for performing positive actions. ~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu tag:www.positivethinkingquotes.com,2010://1.732 2010-02-07T05:41:32Z 2010-02-07T05:49:05Z

Mayura With benevolent feelings and good wishes we can free people from worrying. When we come across people who are faced with a difficult situation because of which they are worrying, we too usually tend to think about it. Instead of helping the other person to be free from worrying, we too begin to worry. This doesn't help either of us in anyway but only adds to the negativity of the situation. We need to develop such benevolent feelings for the ones who are going through the situation that the power of our positive feelings will spread to them too. It will act like the light of the lamp, which helps to dispel the darkness around. Only when there is positivity in the mind will they be able to think of some solution. ~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu tag:www.positivethinkingquotes.com,2010://1.731 2010-02-06T09:08:53Z 2010-02-06T09:32:24Z

Mayura Ignorance makes us believe that life functions haphazardly. Wisdom teaches you that everything that happens in this theatre of life has profound significance. What we see today is not the fruit of chance but a fruit from seeds planted in the past. Plant seeds of peace now and you will create a life of peace in the future. ~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu tag:www.positivethinkingquotes.com,2010://1.730 2010-02-05T11:33:29Z 2010-02-05T11:54:34Z

Mayura The one who is humble is always successful. The one who is humble is free from desires and is in a state of appreciation and contentment of what he has. So he does not want to prove to himself that he is successful. He only enjoys the process of learning and progressing. He is never deterred by criticism and takes it in the right spirit. Humility enables him to appreciate the effort put in by those around him. He would naturally be able to see the specialties in others and respect them for it. There would be no feeling of envy. He would naturally be able to have the quality of contributing for the progress of others too. ~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu tag:www.positivethinkingquotes.com,2010://1.729 2010-02-04T14:23:48Z 2010-02-04T14:33:20Z

Mayura Leave worries aside and you will be surprised by the beauty of the sky and the color of flowers, of the freshness of the breeze and the generosity of the sun. You will feel you are part of creation, and life will start to make sense. The greatest wealth is to appreciate what we have and what we are. ~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu tag:www.positivethinkingquotes.com,2010://1.728 2010-02-02T18:31:59Z 2010-02-02T18:38:15Z

Mayura To be experienced means not to be deceived by anything. There are so many times when a situation takes us by surprise and we make the same mistake that we had made before. It is only when the situation has passed that we realize that we have actually repeated that mistake. What then remains is only repentance as the time has passed where we could have done something. Whenever there is a mistake, we need to take care that we learn from whatever has happened. When we continue to move forward in this way there will be no repentance for the mistakes made but there will be learning that'll make us experienced. And when we are experienced we'll never be deceived by situations which make us commit mistakes. ~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu tag:www.positivethinkingquotes.com,2010://1.727 2010-02-01T08:48:08Z 2010-02-01T08:55:18Z

Mayura The one who is aware of the attainments is the one who is content. Sometimes, there is a tendency to compare ourselves with others and find ourselves lacking in some way. This creates unhappiness in us and we are not able to remain content. Comparing ourselves with others or having expectations makes us miss out on perceiving the attainments we have in our life. And we are not able to experience contentment. Instead of looking at what we don't have, which is usually the practice, we need to make effort to see what we have attained or what we are attaining. Once we make this practice, we will be able to look at the positive aspect in our life, which will enable us to remain content under all circumstances, i.e., in both positive and negative situations. ~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu tag:www.positivethinkingquotes.com,2010://1.726 2010-01-27T05:19:15Z 2010-01-27T05:32:40Z

Mayura Negative situations can be transformed into positive with the power of stability. When faced with a negative situation, usually the mind gets affected. Lot of questions arise in the mind that don't allow us to be stable at that time. Because of the thoughts in our mind, though it is in our hands to work at transforming the situation, we don't make use of this opportunity but only end up adding to the negativity. In a negative situation, it is necessary for us to maintain our own inner stability. We need to free ourselves from wasteful thoughts. Then, the negativity in the situation will finish, first in our mind and then in the situation itself. Our own internal stability will help in finishing the influence of the external situation. ~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu tag:www.positivethinkingquotes.com,2010://1.725 2010-01-25T10:06:05Z 2010-01-25T10:12:58Z

Mayura Where there is honesty there is flexibility. When someone challenges the truth of what we are saying we generally tend to argue and prove our point in order to prove ourselves right. When we argue in this way, it only shows our own stubbornness and doesn't help in anyway to reveal the truth. Where silence doesn't help in revealing the truth, argument never will because the other person is not in a position to listen to us at that moment. We need to realise the fact that when the other person is not able to recognise the truth, our arguing will not help in any way. When the truth is with us we need not argue but we only need to wait for the right opportunity to talk what we have to say. When we try to talk when the other person is not in a position to listen to us, it only reveals our lack of flexibility. ~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu tag:www.positivethinkingquotes.com,2010://1.724 2010-01-22T07:17:14Z 2010-01-22T07:22:39Z

Mayura The one who has the spirit of service is free from wasteful thinking. It is usually thought of as an additional burden to think of serving others. The usual thought is to think of first serving oneself and when one is content to think of serving others. But this thought makes one miss out on the fact that both service to oneself and service to others are complementary to each other, one helping the other in a positive way. When we take on the responsibility of bringing benefit to others, i.e., when we consider ourselves as a humble server we will be free from wasteful and negative thinking. We will not waste our thoughts and energy on something that is not worthwhile, something that is not going to bring benefit to anyone. So each thought, word and action of ours becomes elevated. ~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu tag:www.positivethinkingquotes.com,2010://1.723 2010-01-20T13:56:14Z 2010-01-20T13:58:39Z

Mayura Single minded but flexible, like a river forging its eternal route, I am dedicated to completions and natural conclusions. There is nothing that cannot be achieved. There is nothing that remains permanent. I keep on moving with love and purpose towards my destination. My resolve is firm, my aims are clear. I am determined. ~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu tag:www.positivethinkingquotes.com,2010://1.722 2010-01-19T13:19:58Z 2010-01-19T13:26:11Z

Mayura True service is to spread the light of happiness to all around. In any negative situation, the usual reaction is to feel disheartened and unhappy. With this reaction to the situation, the people around too are affected as the unhappiness spreads around. Focusing this way only on the problem creates such negativity that it doesn't inspire anyone to work for a solution. Instead of spreading unhappiness in a difficult situation by seeing the negative aspect, we need to think of how to bring a solution. Even if we can't, we need to look at some positive aspect in it that will enable us to maintain our own positivity. When we keep ourselves happy in this way, we will be able to spread this happiness to others too. ~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu. tag:www.positivethinkingquotes.com,2010://1.721 2010-01-18T09:57:47Z 2010-01-18T10:03:33Z

Mayura Each morning before I begin the journey of my day let me sit still, in silence, and sow the seed of peace. Peace is harmony and balance. Peace is freedom - freedom from the burden of negativity and wastefulness. Let peace find its home within me. Peace is my original strength, my eternal tranquility of being. Let my first thought of the day simply be peaceful. ~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu tag:www.positivethinkingquotes.com,2010://1.720 2010-01-16T09:44:47Z 2010-01-16T09:53:37Z

Mayura Real positivity is being positive even in negative situations. It seems very difficult, if not impossible, to maintain positive thoughts when we are faced with a negative situation. Even with a strong intention to be positive, challenges come in the form of relationships, physical illness, difficult circumstances etc and we find ourselves weakening. A long time of practice of maintaining inner self-respect is what will help us in a difficult situation. To maintain self-respect means to understand and appreciate our own uniqueness. With this practice of self-respect we will not be dependent on the external situation but will find the strength within. ~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu. tag:www.positivethinkingquotes.com,2010://1.719 2010-01-14T12:38:43Z 2010-01-14T12:45:54Z

Mayura The one with the vision of perfection constantly experiences progress. Many times, as we are moving ahead in the path of our life, we find ourselves stagnating. There seems to be no progress at all in any aspect of our life. We try to bring about a few changes that work for sometime. But after sometime we find ourselves dissatisfied and we stop trying. We need to have the vision of perfection constantly in front of our eyes. We need to ask ourselves what is it that we expect out of ourselves, to be a source of joy to others, to keep learning.... it could be anything that inspires us to constantly move ahead while appreciating all that life brings. ~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu
