I believe:
Life for me works on a simple logic: what we give out, we get back.
No one has any power over us, as we alone are the creators of our thoughts, experiences and our feelings. With every thought we are creating our own future, and there is truth in the saying: "we are the architects of our own destiny". I truly believe in it.
I believe that the past is over and gone, no use thinking about it, and wasting precious time over it. Instead I choose to think of present, and in the present I have the power to change, my thoughts, change the words I use, and become conscious of the unlimited choices that I have.
I believe in feelings, for where there is thought there is bound to be feelings, and to experience good feelings, I choose to have good thoughts. I know I get tempted by negative thoughts, which can pull me easily to their side very often, however I choose to super impose these negative thoughts with positive thoughts as soon as I realize where they are leading me.
It is so simple to just change the thought, it is okay to have negative thoughts crowding our mind, for it is totally impossible to always think positive, but if we become aware of where these thoughts are leading us, we can surely use this life lesson/ experience to change our thoughts, and we realize how things also change as soon as we think differently. If we want to move to another room, we have to get up and move step by step in that direction. The room will not come to us, nor can we just sit in our chair and expect to be magically transported to another room. Similarly, if we keep cleansing our mind of the negative thoughts, it will slowly start thinking in a positive way, consistency is the name of the game, step by step we have to move away from the things that bother us.
We can begin to feel free in this moment.
I believe, I am not a victim of the past, if I had that belief, I would have long ago gone down the drain.
It was not easy, for such a belief, did not come overnight, it needed lot of working with myself, not giving up on myself.
When we are young we make a lot of mistakes, we are affected by each and every negative things that happen in our lives, and we keep creating the same things again and again in our lives, and end up feeling totally drained and worn out. We fail to learn what the Universe is trying to teach us, at every step.
I now choose self - approval, and self- acceptance, for they are the keys that will unlock the positive changes in every area of my life.
I affirm:
I now choose calmly and objectively to see my old patterns
and I am willing to make changes.
I am teachable, I can learn, I am willing to change.
I choose to have fun doing this.
I choose to react as though I have found a treasure
when I discover something else to release.
I see and feel myself changing moment by moment.
Thoughts no longer have any power over me.
I am the power in my world. I choose to be free.
Today is a wonderful day.
I choose to make it so.
What do you believe in?
Please share it with me here.

ReplyDeleteThanks Bali, seeing you here after a long time. How are you?
DeleteBeautiful thoughts there. Lovely post. very very positive. Thank you, Rama.
ReplyDeleteThanks Asha.
DeleteIt is not easy to forget the past, Rama! Though I tell myself that 'this also will pass', it is difficult to let it pass. I am trying my best to go forward and am able to do it slowly. Well...we made mistakes when we were young, but though the no. of mistakes have come down, they are still there!
ReplyDeleteYou are a very positive person, Rama!
I know Sandhya, we have to keep on working on it.
DeleteThanks for stopping by, despite your busy schedule.
Love your positive outlook towards life. A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events and outcomes!! :)
ReplyDeleteVery true, one has to get off this vicious cycle, the sooner, the better.
DeleteThanks Shilpa.
I think one should put the past behind and do the things to be done in the present. Yes, if there is any lesson to be learned from the past, then that should be picked up.
ReplyDeleteYes, past is there only to remind us not to make the same mistakes. Thanks Haddock.
DeleteHi Rama This is a fabulous post. I agree that there should be positivity in our thoughts and actions.Past is gone and the future is hidden nature's womb.Our actions in the present will decide our future. So better live in the present.
ReplyDeleteThanks Usha. You are so right, thinking of the past and looking towards the future, we many times let the present slip away.
DeleteHi! Philosophical thought,but practical too,Rama.
ReplyDeleteYes it is very practical, and also so important. Thanks rudraprayaga.
DeleteVery good post! Absolutely true, It is our choice that controls our present moment!
ReplyDeleteThanks Dillip.
DeleteVery true Rama, we are what we choose to be. As you rightly pointed out it is not easy but once you realize and start working towards it, life will be more beautiful :)
ReplyDeleteYes, Reshma, we have only one life, why not make it as beautiful as possible.
DeleteA good read, Rama.
ReplyDeleteI believe in the present. Past is a guide; it's the present in which we live; and future is what we look forward to.
I believe we should worry only about things over which we have control. Do whatever to the best of our ability and leave unto Lord the rest.
I believe in the fallibility of humans, and in pardon.
I believe in looking at everything as "half full", rather than "half empty".
Very true Pradeep. It is so good to know what you believe in, and thanks for sharing it here.
ReplyDeleteGreat post Rama! Thank you for sharing!
