Who Is Defining You?

Go out there and tell the world who you really are. Don’t let people define you, because they don’t know you. They don’t know anything about you. They don’t know where you are going in life. They don’t know what you have gone through in life. They don’t know where you have been to. And they don’t know where you are going to.

Go out there and define yourself. You can define your by what you do, by how you talk to people, by how you treat people, by what you are pursuing, by how you handle conflict, and by how you position yourself.

“If you don’t get out

there and define

yourself, you’ll be

quickly and

inaccurately

defined by others.”-

Michelle Obama

“The way you define yourself is exactly how the world will define you.”

“The way you define yourself is how people will receive you.”

“The meaning you give to yourself is the same meaning the world will give to you.”

Give yourself the right meaning. Give yourself a positive meaning. If you do not, people will give the wrong meaning.

Go out there and define yourself. Now!

A Contented Mind

We want everything in life. We want this. We want that. But if we want to be really happy, we should be satisfied with what we have. We should focus our attention on what we have, not what we don’t have.

A contented mind is a happy mind. A happy mind is a healthy mind. We can’t find happy if we focus on ‘what we want.’ Real satisfaction in life doesn’t come from what we want. It comes from ‘what we have.’

“A contented mind is

the greatest blessing

a man can enjoy

in this world.”-

Joseph Addison

Only a contented mind can make us happy. Because it is a worry-free mind. It is a mind that doesn’t think about negative things. It is a positive mind.

If you want to cultivate a contented mind, you MUST stop worrying yourself about material things. You must learn how to make yourself happy, no matter what. Do not think of what you don’t have. It will make you unhappy. Instead celebrate what you have.

Set realistic goals for yourself. Do not set vague goals that you cannot reach. Do not hang out with people who will put you down. Hang out with people who will celebrate you, love you, and accept you.

Learn how to make yourself happy. Learn how to make people happy. The world will make you happy.
