Focus On Being Better For Yourself, Not On Being Great For Others

You won’t necessarily become great just by having a dream, but that dream of yours will allow you to have a direction in Life. Your dream will serve as the beacon of hope for yourself and the many others involved when darkness starts to engulf your inner thoughts. However, with nothing set in stone at the start, there will always be many obstacles that stand in your way. These obstacles will constantly attempt to stray you away from that very distant dream of yours. Hence, it is imperative that we prepare ourselves well in order to defuse such negative thoughts as and when they come.

 Oftentimes, our way of thinking is a form of habit. When we are faced with a seemingly unsurmountable challenge, it can be easy to suddenly fall weak on our knees and spiral ourselves into a negative thought cycle over time. Our minds often have this ability to reinforce these negative thoughts unconsciously once confronted with any resistance coming from us on trying to force them out. Negative contents are all around us and the problem does not lie in the existence of such environment. Instead, the problem comes when we start to perceive all these negative thoughts as the truth. Our own truth.

Along the way, we would sometimes enter a difficult state of mind unconsciously, constantly feeling helpless or afraid of change. During these times, instead of believing yourself  and the ones who believe you can actually achieve it, you start to believe those naysayers who say you can never make it. As time slowly goes by, your own pace cannot be kept up and you still have not really moved far from where you originally were after a while. 
Although there will be some people who feel theirs dreams are impractical, but it is in this impracticality that you may hope to have a chance of living out a different kind of Life, of seeing the world differently from how you used to perceive, of challenging the status quo, and proving to yourself that you have much more potential than you have ever imagined.

In fact, a dream or a vision is made up of nothing but a collection of your everyday goals. As you move along, you will need to formulate game plans, and move ahead with renewed vigour; you will need to reach out for the goals you set for yourself, and the persistence to carry on no matter what. You will need to face your doubts, and learn to trust your instincts despite all odds. Always remember, those who work hard for their dreams are not necessarily better than everyone else, but when you work hard for your own dreams, you will have no doubt become better than you ever were before.

How You See Yourself Ultimately Decides The Kind of Life You Will Live

Image
Until the moment when we finally find our souls, we are always being influenced by the environment we are in from a very young age. Our thoughts and beliefs are pretty much entirely shaped by our family and society.  However, what the world often says and what the world later does are often against each other. One day, when we feel that we are completely abandoned by the world, we will slowly come to a realisation and enlightenment. That is when our inner selves will grow to be stronger, we learn to ignore the naysayers, we form new perspectives on Life and gain alternative strategies on how to traverse this world we live in. It is at this moment that your inner soul is no longer as ignorant as it used to be; all sorts of Joker , big or small, will be born.  Joker (2019 film) From the Big Bang, to the formation of our solar system, to the existence of Mother Earth, to the creation of various lifeforms, to the evolution of Homo Sapiens, to the birth of your very self.

Start From The Things Where You Can Do Best, To Make The World A Better Place

To be able to make a contribution to mankind or the society can also be a kind of blessing. Take a step back and look at the Life most of us are going through thus far. In order to minimize inconvenience in our lives and the lives of others, most of us practice self-restraint. That is how the majority of us try to do in order to get us to where we are at various stages of Life. In the face of growing old and moving toward the livelihood of being an old man, the majority of us, at least, can perhaps attempt to shift away from our current standpoint or way of thinking of restraining ourselves towards something that speaks "do-what-you-love-to-do" as the focal point in living. One of the practical way of doing this is to transform that "who-am-I-doing-it-for" or "this-is-for-the-good-of-the-community" that forms the basis of our survival in today's context by adding in the element of "doing-what you-love-to-do". I deeply believe that

Courageous People Will Make Themselves Look Normal. 5 Signs Of "Courage" Based on Alfred Adler's Psychology Theory

Image
Those who lack courage, will resort to all means possible to look 'special'; those who possess courage, will blend themselves in as being 'normal'. Courage is the feeling in which you experience strength and you are of worth, as well as the belief that you can take on Life's problems. Life's going will never be all rosy and smooth-sailing, it may sometimes be due to work, interpersonal relationships, love relationships, or parent-child relationships; or it may also be due to a series of obstacles you faced along the way. Whenever we encounter difficulties, all of us are given two choices: one is to face it head on, and another is to run away from it. The latter of which is termed is Superiority Complex and Inferiority Complex. Let's take a look the 5 signs of "Courage" as advocated through Alfred Adler's school of thoughts.  The feeling that you are capable and worthy of achievements The crux of the problem is that avoiding problems
