self-development and self-improvement [Theme] Page 3
Self-knowledge is the opportunity to see, understand, explore, and maybe change, balance your depths, what is hidden from view. I’ll try to explain it to you using geometry as an example. I think it will be clearer this way. You went to school and know what a cube is, right? Here, imagine that you are holding a green cube in your hands. What can you say about him? Its color and the three dimensions of this figure: length, width, height. All! We look at it based on the three-dimensional dimension instilled in us since childhood. We don't see anymore. In addition, we can only see three sides of it because we are accustomed to three-dimensional measurement, so the remaining sides are hidden from our eyes. But, nevertheless, we know for sure that there are other sides too, although we do not see them. Now imagine that inside, from all the edges of the cube, there are also faces inside it, which are connected to each other with other faces... You know what a tesseract is? This is a four-dimensional hypercube. Imagine that these invisible faces can move, shift, change in size, go beyond the boundaries of the cube, give birth to new faces, turning from a tesseract into a penteract - a five-dimensional cube. That is, outwardly you are holding in your hands what seems to be an ordinary three-dimensional cube, but in fact it can have many dimensions. And it’s difficult for you to measure what’s inside, you don’t see it. But that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. It's the same with a person. We see his external data, we can measure his height, shoulder width, waist size and the like. But we cannot measure his power of thought, his thinking, his sensitivity, his perception of the world, the time allotted to him and much more that we feel, know that it is, but do not see it. It's all hidden to the eye, somewhere inside.
Judge people by their actions. Turn off the sound, what people say is just confusing.
To change your habits, you need desire and a lot of effort. But even a great effort always begins with a small step. So, get started, don't procrastinate. Change the most necessary things first, and then change everything you can. And soon you yourself will not even notice how you will do what you previously thought was impossible.
When something good can be done, time does not matter because every day of our life becomes useful.
This state of soul, in which a person is not aware of the evil that he is doing, occurs in a person when he either does not want to check his behavior with reason, or, even worse, uses his reason to justify his actions, when he has fallen under the temptations associated with them superstitions.
There is no such strong and healthy body that would never get sick; there is no such wealth that would not be lost; There is no power that does not end. All this is fragile.
And once we learn to see ourselves as the culprit, saying, “This is my problem and my confusion,” we will have more clarity. We will become able to turn our problems into our positive experiences.
I firmly believe that we can only create peace on Earth if we find it in our souls.
I think that in any field of activity, the wrong attitude towards one’s popularity can turn a person from a professional into a craftsman: he will stop improving.
The only person who should believe in you is yourself!
All our problems and suffering are the result of our actions.
“Really? Every person carries his own world in his heart. Anyone who has seen only bad things in the past will not find anything good here. On the contrary, those who know how to value friends will find good people here too.”
The impossible is possible if you believe in miracles.
A person can overcome any limitations because he created them through his own actions and because he has spiritual resources that are not subject to planetary pressure.
A person scolds and insults you - don’t give in to him, don’t take the path he wants to take you on, don’t do the same thing he does.
