Do you appreciate your parents who took care of your every little need?

 

Parents who go over and beyond to fulfil their responsibility are undoubtedly the greatest blessings in life. We can never fully know what they did for us, but we can always love and appreciate them.

Every parent wants to provide the best for their children. To give us comfort, our parents sometimes make their lives hard, but they never even mention it to us because all they want us to be happy. When parents get old, many people see them as burdens creating discomfort in their lives, forgetting the life they gave them.

Look after your parents, love and appreciate them. They gave you every comfort; ensure you don't leave them in discomfort.

Are you putting your focus in the right place?

 

Achieving goals require channeling our inner strength in the right direction. Once we do this, getting to our destination is not hard.

One of the reasons why most people give up on their goals is when they find the walk too hard. When we only focus on our destination, we always think of how far we are and how long it will take us to reach it. So the energy that can be well spent on the actual effort goes towards thinking and worrying.

Be aware of where you want to be, but to get closer to your goals, be willing to start, ready to improve and determined to continue.

Do you allow yourself to be the real you?

 

Most people don’t. This is one of the reasons why people feel unvalued because you can pretend for sometime, but after that it only creates emptiness.

Many people pretend in order to fit in a group, company or situation. Slowly such people lose their real identity and forget who they truly are until one day they cannot even find themselves. They live in fear and are always anxious for their real self might become known to others.

Aim to improve but be your real self. You will feel free, happy and valued.

Are you letting others' opinions make you doubt yourself?

 

You are your biggest supporter. You need to believe in yourself and what you do, regardless of what others think of you.

Sometimes we want to follow our dream, but people don’t see worth us, so they are not supportive. We start to doubt ourselves, our abilities and dreams and often end up giving up on ourselves and our dreams just because someone else couldn't see what we see in ourselves.

Don’t feel discouraged by people’s opinions. People who truly want you to achieve will always stand with you. Even if you find no one supporting you, your self-trust should be so strong that no one ever breaks it.

Are you rushing your life?

 

Life is a beautiful experience, but when we are rushing all the time, we cannot experience its true beauty.

Most people rush their lives because they just want to follow where everyone else is going not knowing that the people they are following themselves don't know their destination. As people do not want to be left behind, they become a participant in the race to nowhere missing out on the little every day joyful moments of life.

Take time to appreciate your life. Only when you slow down, you realise how beautiful is life.

Do you appreciate people's efforts?

 

Every person has their strength and weakness. What we choose to see in a person is how we feel about them.

Many relationships suffer because people do not recognise each other’s efforts and abilities but always point out their inabilities. A person may not always meet your expectations, but if you keep bringing up their flaws, you discourage them, and they lose their motivation to continue.

Appreciate people; it can help them improve and perform better. When efforts go unappreciated, it only limits one’s abilities.
