CONCLUSION

everything does happen for our highest and best good

we have to rise above our limited personality traits and evolve ourselves to the higher purpose

rather than getting entangled in normal human thought pattern, let’s evolve our thinking and mindset towards Positivity and hope around us and create a better happy environment around us

from that point, the challenges and set backs that all of us face at some point of time will be seen as opportunities and stepping stones to learn, grow and evolve in life

everything happens for the best

this mantra doesn’t help change the situation but it helps to change us to deal with the situation

finally, it is the inner growth that matters

thinking positively isn’t about expecting the best to happen every time but accepting that whatever happens is the best for this moment

enjoy the time you have now. live in this moment and never look back

whatever happens – don’t stress

brian tracy said , ‘ develop an attitude of gratitude and give thanks for everything that happens to you.

knowing that every step you take, you are achieving something bigger and better than your present situation.

you cannot control what happens to you, but you can control your attitude towards what happens to you and in that you will be mastering change rather than allowing Change to master you‘

i am no teacher or saint to preach or teach people

but by god’s grace i come upon such references from books and teachings from spiritual books which gives us a lot of wisdom and ways to live our valuable life meaningfully

and teach ourselves and the people whom we associate with – to live with the right code of conduct and to raise our standard of living

making smaller changes in life will not only help us be a better individual

but also bring a valuable change in the society in the current scenario which is very much required

however small it may be but let’s atleast start from OURSELVES

let’s make the world a better place with our small efforts in all aspects of living

so that’s all friends, hope i could bring some insight in you

until next time, keep smiling

much love .. stay happy .. stay blessed … ALWAYS
