Editors Note

Constant and never ending change for the better is the most potent factor that could make the difference between success and failure.  While analyzing my own failures or successes I have found ability to change as the major factor affecting the outcome.  If one is able to understand the changing realities quickly and interpret the possibilities emerging from the change, success is sure to follow.  The core theme of this weeks article is the changing realities, and our own current realities could be quickly and positively changed if only we understand the concept.

Change being one of my favorite subjects, we have also been changing the format of the newsletter for the better with every issue.  Our Archives will amply illustrate this.   You, dear readers have been instrumental in the improvements with your feedback.  I must also especially acknowledge Mr. Vipul Agarwal of Zend Consulting for his valuable suggestions.  Readers can benefit from his website http://www.learnthenet.com/english/html/09netiqt.htm. which gives very useful tips on using the net.

And finally, if you have anything to say which will enhance people's lives, then please do share them with everyone here.  We would be happy to publish them on these pages.

So friends, unleash all the potentials you have.  Make your today the best so that tomorrow can take care of itself.

Happy reading and wishing you success.

Powerful Quotes To Motivate

 The greater danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high and we miss it, but that it is too low and we reach it.

The Changing Reality

It is often taken for granted that the reality tomorrow will be the same as today.  But the fact is it changes constantly, imperceptibly without even our realizing that the reality has changed.  The inability to grasp the changing reality is perhaps the single most important reason leading one to failures.  While we blame the luck, the stars, government policies or the economy, it is an undeniable fact that the blame squarely lies on our inability to grasp the changing reality.

Time and space are not static concepts.  They are in constant dynamic motion.  And with the time and space our past and future change constantly.  Then how is it that we do not realize the change?  And how could past change?  The reason is very simple.  We view our past in a two dimensional state which we observe.  We do not see the third dimension of interacting forces set in motion by our the past which is constantly creating a new futures.  We may call this the non physical dimension.  There is a distinct potential of creating alternative futures of our choice once we recognize and interpret this non physical dimension 

To explain the concept in very simple terms let us look  at an accident occurring in front of you and your colleague.  Both are viewing the same event.  But when it is recounted the versions are very different, the emotions are different, the outcome is different.    The reality is different for the same event occurring at the same time for two different people.  The reality could change for the same person as well, the way one interprets the event. The non physical past itself is different for two people with the same event.  The physical event is the same.  But the more important non physical reality of the same event has set in motion forces  which is going to shape our future.  We also have the choice to change the non physical past of any event in the way we look at the event.

And this is what we call beliefs.  Beliefs are our interpretation of past experiences and how we look at the experience.

But generally we hold the past events in a fixed image.  Today is the same as yesterday. This minute is the same as the next.  One meals is the same as the next and the beliefs get fixed in our mind and this where we are sacrificing the creative freedom to change our reality. 

Every moment is different and unique.  Even every event itself has many hues of reality.  Today's events cannot be looked at in comparison with similar past event.  The comparable event of the past can at best be a tool for recognition and not for judgment or decision. And realizing this process of changing reality can empower us - put the power to change our world as we please.    

To change our reality we therefore must do two things.

First we must look at and examine all our beliefs which is the non physical part of our past and change the beliefs which are holding us back.  This will help us to remove the negativities of the past and focus only on the positive events and positive beliefs.

Secondly you must believe that you are living in a world which though ever changing can still be shaped the way you want it to be. This puts the creative power of choice in your hands to shape your destiny.  You create your world. 

So take the step now of creating a world which you want and not a world which others want for you.  Because your reality is very different from others.  You have been doing this somewhat unconsciously right from the time you were born.  Unfortunately the social conditioning made you believe otherwise.  You were told you were the product of everything else except your own choices

So now let us restore that choice and start changing our reality from this moment on.

Just Relax

Once upon a time, there was an island where all the       
                           
feelings
                           lived: Happiness, Sadness, Knowledge and all of the
others,
                           including Love
 
One day,
                           it was announced to the feelings that the 
island
                           would sink, so all repaired their boats and left. 
Love
                           was the only one who stayed.
 
Love
                           wanted to persevere until the last possible moment.
 
When
                           the island was almost sinking, Love decided to
ask for
                           help.
 
Richness
                           was passing by Love in a great boat.
 
Love
                           said:
 
"Richness,
                           can you take me with you?" 
 
Richness
                           answered:
 
"No,
                           I can't. There is a lot of gold and silver in my boat. 
There
                           is no place here for you."
 
Love
                           decided to ask Vanity, who was also passing by in
a beautiful
                           vessel:
 
"Vanity,
                           please help me!"
 
"I
                           can't help you, Love. You are all wet and might 
damage
                           my boat," Vanity answered. 
 
Sadness
                           was close by, so Love asked for help:
 
"Sadness,
                           let me go with you."
 
"Oh...Love,
                           I am so sad that I need to be by myself!"
 
Happiness
                           passed by Love too, but she was so happy  
that
                           she did not even hear when Love called her! Suddenly, 
there
                           was a voice:
 
"Come
                           Love, I will take you." It was an elder. 
 
Love
                           felt so blessed and overjoyed that he even forgot
to ask
                           the elder her name.
 
When
                           they arrived at dry land, the elder went her own way.
 
Love
                           realizing how much he owed the elder asked  
Knowledge,
                           another elder:
 
"Who
                           helped me?" 
 
"It
                           was Time," Knowledge answered.
 
"Time?"
                           asked Love. "But why did Time help me?"
 
Knowledge
                           smiled with deep wisdom and answered:
 
"Because
                           only Time is capable of understanding   
how great
                           Love is."
