I follow this popular Blog Marc and Angel and the other day, they shared "40 Quotes that Will Quiet Your Mind". I figured why not share this with you guys. In a world where our mind is in constant turmoil and our life always some noise attached to it?
They share some practical wisdom's and quotes that you can use as a reminder when you want your anxious thoughts to calm down. I will share with you my favorites:
- There is absolutely nothing about your present circumstances that prevents you from making progress, one step at a time.
- Worry, and you get what you worry about. Work, and you get what you work for. It’s often just that simple.
- You can’t let one bad moment spoil a bunch of good ones. Don’t let the silly little dramas of each day get you down.
- Happiness is allowing yourself to be perfectly OK with ‘what is,’
rather than wishing for and worrying about ‘what is not.’ ‘What is’ is
what’s supposed to be, or it would not be. The rest is just you,
arguing with life.
- Frustration and stress come from the way you react, not the way
things are. Adjust your attitude today, and the frustration and stress
is gone.
- Be positive and smile right now, not because everything is good, but because you can see the good side of everything.
- No book is just one chapter. No chapter tells the whole story. No
mistake defines who we are. Keep turning the pages that need to be
turned.
- Remember, letting go isn’t about having the courage to release the
past; it’s about having the wisdom and strength to embrace the present.
- The past has absolutely no power over the present moment.
- Feeling stuck is a FEELING, not a fact. So never assume that you’re
stuck with the way things are. Life changes every second, and so can
you.
- In almost every situation, a little more willingness to acknowledge
that there may be something you do not know could change everything. Go
somewhere new, and countless opportunities suddenly appear. Do
something differently, and all sorts of great new possibilities spring
up. Keep your mind quiet and peaceful, by keeping it open.
- Be careful about who you give the microphone and stage to in your
life. Don’t just listen to the loudest voice. Listen to the truest
one.
- The unhappiest people in this world are the people who care the most about what everyone else thinks.
- Saying yes to happiness and peace of mind means learning to say no
to the people and things that hurt you. Be wise enough to ignore the
needless negativity around you.
- The person you liked, loved or respected in the past, who treated
you like dirt again and again, has nothing intellectually or spiritually
to offer you in the present moment, but headaches and heartache.
- One of the most freeing things we learn in life is that we don’t
have to agree with everyone, everyone doesn’t have to agree with us, and
it’s perfectly OK.
- You have to accept that some chapters in our lives have to close
without closure. There’s no point in losing yourself by trying to fix
what’s meant to stay broken.
- Everyone you meet can teach you something important. In fact, the
people who are the most difficult to deal with can also be your most
valuable teachers.
- Some life changes look negative and painful on the surface, but you
will soon realize that space is being created in your life for something
new and beautiful to emerge.
- Without letting go of thinking there’s somewhere better to be, or
someone better to be, you’ll never relax with where you are and who you
are.
- The curious paradox of life is that when you accept yourself just as
you are, right where you are, only then can you change and grow.
- Take constructive criticism seriously, but not personally. Listen,
and then operate with your own intuition and wisdom as your guide.
- Sometimes your mind needs more time to accept what your heart already knows. Breathe. Be a witness, not a judge.
- Don’t run away from things; run toward them – the best way to move
away from something negative is to move toward something positive.
- Patience is not about waiting; it’s the ability to keep a good attitude while working hard for what you believe in.
- Remember, “I don’t have time,” is really just another, perhaps
politer, or perhaps naive, way of saying, “It’s not that important to
me.”
- You cannot always wait for the perfect time, because there may be no such thing. Sometimes you must dare to jump.
- Don’t be afraid of your fears. They’re not here to scare you. They’re here to let you know that something is worth your while.
- Don’t let not knowing how it’ll end keep you from beginning.
Uncertainty chases us out into the open where life’s true magic is
waiting.
- Look at how far you’ve come. You have made progress. And now, imagine how far you can go.
- And finally… Stop worrying so much about what’s in it for you every single second. If you’re making a positive contribution to others, there’s always something in it for you in the long run.
