If you were to ask your neighbor, "What would give you peace of mind?" he might tell you,"A vacation in Bermuda !" or "An extra hundred grand would give me peace!", or "A new Ferrari would make me content!"
But going places and getting stuff is usually a temporary solution ...
Peace of mind rarely comes from getting more stuff.Getting more stuff usually leads to wanting even more stuff!
Peace of mind starts with being grateful for what we have right now.
GRATITUDE is POWERWhen we are thankful for what we have - for the friends we have, and for the things we've got, we attract more good people and good things!
People, who always complain about what they DON'T HAVE, stay stuck.
Complainers attract more things to complain about! It is a law of life. It's hard to explain, but you can observe it around you. We get more of what we dwell upon. That's why all the spiritual masters have taught the same lesson... "Start by being thankful. Be happy with what you have now, and more will come your way." It's practical advice.
Every time you say a silent "thank you" you become more peaceful and have more power.

yah..its all about being satisfied with what you have and work hard instead of being jealous..
ReplyDeleteread the quotation..
Jealousy is simply and clearly the fear that you do not have value. Jealousy scans for evidence to prove the point - that others will be preferred and rewarded more than you. There is only one alternative - self-value. If you cannot love yourself, you will not believe that you are loved. You will always think it's a mistake or luck. Take your eyes off others and turn the scanner within. Find the seeds of your jealousy, clear the old voices and experiences. Put all the energy into building your personal and emotional security. Then you will be the one others envy, and you can remember the pain and reach out to them. ~Jennifer James
