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

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.

to failure is to try to please everyone"

you can, but do not tell them."

Chesterfield

is not enough."

actions. All life is an experiment."

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
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
Richness
was passing by Love in a great boat.
"Richness,
can you take me with you?"
"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
"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,
"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:
"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
