Core values in life

Every person should have some core values in life and he must stick to them come what way, then only he will be respected by his inner self and will ultimately be happy in life.

Sometimes we tend to take decisions in life which relax our core values under the influence of our emotions but do remember that this will create an internal conflict if not the same day but later. This will not only create the feeling of disgust in you but also makes you a person of low integrity. So first identify what your core values in life are and always stick to them and be brave to take responsibility for the consequences of your actions based on those values.

Core values are fundamental beliefs each one of us have which constantly guide our behavior and help us in deciding what is right and wrong. Some of them might look like the one's below...

Sometimes we also get affected when people around us do not align to your core values but then we must realize that we have no control over other's actions. 

Perseverance is the key to success

One single word says it all !!!

Everyone dreams of achieving big goals in life which will make them feel proud and stay energetic (at least for sometime) in life, but not all of them will be able to march towards it.

One can quote tons of reasons for not being able to make it...I feel among many good things, perseverance is a virtue we all need to achieve great successes in life and to achieve things which might seem impossible to us today.

If you feel that you can't make it because you are facing obstacles or discouragements in your path the best way to come out of the feeling is to take inspiration from others who made things possible which seem to be impossible...it can be mountaineer who climbed the Everest after repeated setbacks or your father or sister who challenged themselves to come out of their comfort zone and made wonders in thier own careers despite of facing hurdles on their path.

Taking inspiration from others experiences in life will give you the confidence that you too can reach your goal which looks impossible today :-)

Independence vs Interdependence

Read a short story today which I could resonate the most, so wanted to share with you folks...here is how it goes...

A young girl and her father were walking along a forest path. At some point, they came across a large tree branch on the ground in front of them. The girl asked her father, “If I try, do you think I could move that branch?” Her father replied, “I am sure you can, if you use all your strength”.
The girl tried her best to lift or push the branch, but she was not strong enough and she couldn't move it. She said, with disappointment, “You were wrong, dad. I can't move it”. “Try again with all your strength,” replied her father.
Again, the girl tried hard to push the branch. She struggled but it did not move. “Dad, I cannot do it,” said the girl. Finally her father said, “Young lady, I advised you to use 'all your strength'. You didn’t ask for my help.

Moral: Our real strength lies not in independence, but in interdependence.

I always believe that interdependence plays a vital role in bringing out full efficiencies in us... But again its up to one's personal opinion as many of my friends always believe in working in silos or solving problems all by oneself or in short being independent :-)

Just you go for it...

Whenever a question comes to your mind about taking a decision about something in your life, take the decision based on what YOU want and what YOU feel is right for you and NOT based what OTHERS want or what OTHERS feel is right for you.

When you are making a decision based on what others feel right for you, today you might feel that they might be correct because of many reasons whether it might be they have more experience than you or they might be more wiser than you etc. but remember one thing it is you who should faces the consequences of the decision and not them!!!

Worst thing which can happen is you blaming your loved ones later in life for the decisions you took because they thought it is correct for you :-)

I have been seeing many examples around me which makes the point stronger and stronger each time I come across an instance... some friends taking bold career decisions and some taking bold decisions in personal life :)...Really proud of each one of you ra!!!
