Finding Happiness

How to overcome fear


“The greatest fear to man in this world comes from himself and not from any outside source” ____ Swet Marden

“When one is free from attachment to wealth, reputation, family, body and surrenders himself to god, fearlessness will come of its own accord”_____ M.K. Gandhi

Fear: Your uninvited guest

There is a fellow who lives with you day and night. He sleeps, wake, goes to office, travels eats with you. There is a possibility that he is there with you even now when you are reading this blog. In the evening when you lose yourself in some activity like swimming or walking in a park you might temporarily forget this fellow, but all of a sudden when you look around you again find this fellow at your side.

Can you name this fellow which is your constant companion all day long? It is none other than “FEAR”. You have given him so much power that he has become your master and enjoys full authority over you. You have become puppet that moves around him as subordinate moves around boss, in spite of the fact that you hate him and want to get rid of him

Fear is one enemy who robs us of all the joys. Our worries and fear about the future prevents us from experiencing the joy and happiness which exists here right now .Our search for fulfillment in our life can be successful only to the extent that we understand and overcome our fear

What is the dragon called fear? Fear is nothing but the anticipation of loss or harm to one’s sense of ‘I –ness or ego

Finding Happiness

4} Positive Thinking:-
Most of us have doubts and fear about our ability to make a mark in life. Our mind keeps telling us “I cannot do it, I can’t achieve it”. Since the mind rules the body it is not surprising when the body believes everything that the mind suggests. We are left behind in life causing great unhappiness.

Now, is the time to take a new look and the situation. It is not difficult to change our negative outlook towards life. The magic lies is personal belief. When you belive that you are capable of doing something, your body belives it too. Make positive thinking a part of your life. Always look to the brighter side the things

5} facing problems boldly:-
Every body has good and bad times. If it were not for bad times we would not work hard to make life a success and we would take good times for granted. Every one has his or her moment of joys but there will be occasions of grief, defeat and heartbreak. Even the happiest person is not free from them. The only difference is that the happy man looks at the brighter side of problems and believes in his ability to find reasonable solution.

Whenever there is problem always find out the worst that can happen if you do not solve the problem. In most of the cases you will observe that they are not half of serious as we consider them to be

6} Learn to be successful:-
Nothing is more stimulating than success in our venture. Nobody can reach the top in single attempt. One must raise one step at a time. To prepare yourself for a big success that will eventually become a part of your life, learn to achieve success in small everyday activities at home and outside. Each small success achieved will prepare you for the bigger successes.

Finding Happiness
A man’s place in society depends upon the images he projects of himself. In the hope of achieving good results most people go to great lengths to win the approval of the people who matter to them. It is this desire for appreciation that compels people to dress to attract attention, to build and decorate their homes, to acquire status symbols like cars, imported appliances etc.
However these people do not realize that they entered a never ending race. It is a race nobody can possibly win.

Each one of us is many people in one. Most people are content as they are. Nevertheless not the complete man. For the complete man ,the best rule is to do what comes naturally. Do not try to do things that are contrary to your basic nature. If you prefer your own company rather than being at a loud party, do not let it hurt your cons science. In the same way. If you are man of action , it will do you no good if you decide to do something that requires a lot of thinking . Living unnaturally cannot be disguised. It will only promote tension.
