Aptitude V/s. Right Attitude

Aptitude V/s. Right Attitude November 03, 2024 After a lot of contemplation, I have concluded that success is a factor of right attitude rather than aptitude. You can be a person with an average aptitude, but if you have the right attitude, you are likely to be more successful. On the other hand, you may be a person with above average aptitude, but you do not have the right attitude, then your success will be lesser, than your actual potential. I am not saying, aptitude is not important, what I am saying is - right attitude is more important. I am carefully using my words here. The words are ‘ right attitude’ and not just ‘attitude’ because excess attitude is arrogance and less attitude is diffidence. So how does one define ‘ right attitude’? In my view, ‘ right attitude’ is difficult to define, as it may differ from situation to situation, but I feel some basic ingredients of ‘ right attitude’ would be: ·     Positive approach – this would mean, look a...

Trust the Universe

Trust the universe!!   Instead of trying to control things by manifesting, affirming, visualising or through any other means, just let things be!!    Just let things be, and - stay positive, be happy, be grateful, be kind, forgive first, help others, work hard, be honest, wish well for others, become the best version of yourself, stop complaining, give love, and let the universe decide what’s best for you.    The universe will never give you what you ask for. It will only give you, what you deserve. So raise your level unconditionally, without any hope or expectations, and let the universe decide what you deserve. The universe will give you more than you expected.    Don’t try to control things, let go - let go of the expectations and let go of the fear.    Live with faith, not with fear, and trust the universe.    Views are personal….   Do share your feedback, if any, on  hparekh18@yahoo.co.in  or on +91 9892987223.

Change your energy, and bring the change you want!

Beginning of the new year always brings about an excitement. An excitement for change!! Whether it's the desire to  change an old habit or to develop a new habit. We all think of a change, at the beginning of the new year.    And while we get excited and desire a change, at some level, we find it difficult to bring the change, and eventually we give up after putting in some effort. The key reason why most of us fail to bring a change is - we look for changes externally, rather than looking to change things from within.  Once you start looking at changing things from within, the external changes are bound to happen, and this is an age-old philosophy which has been explained by many philosophers and thinkers. The thought of 'bringing in a change internally' seems overwhelming, isn't it? At least, I found it overwhelming, until I came across an interview of Dr. Joe Dispenza, who referred to 'internal change' as 'change in your energy'. For some strange reas...

Second chance: It’s the law of universe. Life always gives you a second chance!

  Second chance: It’s the law of universe. Life always gives you a second chance !   This blog is based on a true story!! My brother and I have an age difference of just 1.5 years, so we practically grew up together as friends and even our respective friends became friends with the two of us. As my brother and I both were inclined towards pursuing a career in law or related fields, one of my brother’s close friend also decided to take up law as a career. He applied for the 5 years law course and got admission in Government Law College, Mumbai, a prestigious institute for reading law in those days. I believe, although, he took the admission, somewhere he was nervous about his decision and may have second guessed it, but eventually he decided to move forward with the course. The first year turned out to be difficult for him. He could not clear the exams and decided to give up on law as a career. He moved back to pursing his degree in commerce. After he got his commerce...

The power of words: I AM

The power of words: I AM .   Yesterday, I attended a webinar where I understood the basic concepts of “Pranic Healing”. What I discovered and found amusing, was, all the different concepts of healing and living a better life are intricately linked to each other or have a common foundation. Pranic healing also talks about “Chakras” (the centres of energy in human body) and touches upon the laws of attraction and vibrations. I have analysed and filtered my learnings (including the learning from yesterday’s webinar) and thereafter narrowed down on the most basic yet effective practical way , of handling the stress and anxiety caused by the present situation. I hope I can reach out to you through this blog, and you find the suggestion here helpful. The book, The Secret, explains the power of the words “I AM”. As I understand, these are the most powerful and potent words of affirmation, and they instantly change your vibrations. It is therefore important to be careful as to when t...

Handling covid: mentally

Handling covid: mentally. I have been wanting to write a blog or an article since some time now, but for some reason or the other, it has never really materialised. However, the present situation has given me an opportunity to write and share somethings which I have learned during this period. I hope you find this useful. We all are constantly reading, listening and talking about covid and the consequences thereof. Be it about the lack of medical facilities, suffering, deaths or the economic impact of the lockdown. With this blog, I am trying to suggest some simple measures to deal with the anxiety, which people are suffering from cause of the present situation. Here are some simple tips: ·        We always think more about what we don’t want, instead of thinking about what we want – so if you don’t want covid and you don’t want to suffer in anyway, then stop reading, listening, talking and thinking about covid and the other adverse situations. W...
