THOUGHT FOR PEACE

Detachment
* In life we get attracted and become attached to a particular object, person, relationship or situation.
Attachment seems to be the normal state of our living experience. We seek it without a second thought.
Is attachment a desirable state?
When a person develops a strong attachment, he is likely to become sorrowful when the attachment is broken or diminished. His emotional and mental state suffers. The broken hearted, the vindictive behavior, the hatred, the jealousy and sometimes suicides are the result of broken attachments.
It is a risky business to make the happiness of others our total happiness; to experience the difficulties of others as our difficulties. We should not build our life to such an extent around someone else’s life or any object so that when anything goes wrong we cannot function or we fall apart.
It is healthier, stronger and much more in wisdom to love everything and everybody, play our roles and perform our duties to the maximum with everybody and still remain detached.
We will be able to provide more help to others when we ourselves are strong from within.

Get Set, Go!
Set goals and go for them.
Make a list of your goals, career as well as personal goals, both short-term and long-term. Prepare yourself with the right tools to help you accomplish your goals. Choose the action you will take immediately.
With your goals in sight, on your mark, get set, ready, go.

Mental Breather
When your thoughts speed along like bullet trains, your emotions erupt and you react like an active volcano, you know you need to slow down and take a mental breather. Let your mind breathe deeply and come to a point of stillness.

Make Time with Less
We’ve all been guilty of thinking, “I just don’t have the time.”
You might not have thetime to do everything but you DO have time. It’s just that you’re choosing to spend your time elsewhere.
Make time for things that matter by spending less time on things that don’t. Try to: chat less; watch less TV; browse the web less; check your email, Facebook, Twitter less.
