Life Lessons and Universal Truths
1. “The more you give, the more you receive” is a universal truth that applies to way more than charitable giving. It literally applies to everything. It has been described as the boomerang effect and that termis very fitting because you literally get back everything you put out there. It doesn’t matter if it is kindness, generosity, love, anger, frustration, money, etc. It all comes right back to you.
2. Life always puts in front of you exactly what you need at that precise moment in time. Whether it is good or bad or tastes sweet or sour, life gives you exactly what you need, even if you may prefer to have something else.
3. If you really believe that everything happens for a reason and buy into that truth, there is nothing you will not be able to manage through.
4. If at first you don’t succeed, there is a reason why and until you figure out that reason, you will not succeed.
5. If you struggle with a situation, but never learn the underlying lesson, itwill come back t o you again and again until you learn it … even though it may come in a different size box with a different color ribbon.
6. There is nothing better than figuring out your purpose and living aligned with it.
7. We have the ability to create and shape our own future . We just have to realize that is the case and then choose to do something about it.
8. If you think your life is just okay, then you still have more to learn abouthow you really should be living and experiencing life.
9. When you first set out to accomplish something big, at first it will be all about successfully accomplishing your desire. However, as you get closer and closer to accomplishing it and when you are finally successful, the destination and your success will not seem nearly as important as it did in the beginning. What will really matter is what you have learned along the way and how you have grown.
10. Things can seem to be a certain way and when we look at them on their surface, we will only understand a certain aspect. However, if we push ourselves to look at what seemed obvious and choose to look at it differently, we will see alternaviews. We will see life lessons in everything around us that apply to who we are and who we want to be become. We will see that everything has the ability to point us in the direction of our own truth. We just have to look....
Have you begun to realize that there is much more to learn about life than what you were taught in school? If so, you’ll find the following 12 life lessons to be some of the most important lessons you’ve ever learned. In fact, after you’re finished reading these, it might be a good idea to save this article somewhere on your computer or print it and read it every day…
1. Paying Cash is Better Than Borrowing
The purpose of credit and borrowing money is to make a profit for the lender. Every time that you borrow money to buy something, you’re agreeing to pay more money for it later so that someone else can make a profit. Therefore it’s best to buy what you want with cash and to save the extra money for helping yourself instead of someone else.
2. Your Health is Your Life
You only have one body and it has to last you for the rest of your life. Therefore, your life and your health are directly linked and you should guard your personal health with your life. This means refusing to give in to the temptation to eat junk or to live an inactive lifestyle. Make propernutrition, consistent balanced exercise and stress management a part of your lifestyle and you’ll have a good healthy life.
3. You Must Give to Get
One of the major causes for unhappiness is expecting to get something for nothing. In life, you will receive only according to quality and quantity with which you give. This is true in your relationships, your health, career and your financial life.
4. Being Right Does Not Build Relationships
The best way to build empowering relationships with other people is to understand them and to be understood by them. Getting into disputes, debates or arguments about who is right and who is wrong is a dead end. Focus instead on being compassionate and treating people the way you would like to be treated.
5. Most of Getting What You Want is Being Bold Enough to Ask
There are two things which keep people from getting what they really want out of life: they either don’t know what they want, or they are too afraid to ask for it. Learn to ask for the things you want, if people say no,you’ve lost nothing. But if you make it a habit to ask for what you want you’d be surprised at how often you get it.
6. Fear Can Be Your Best Friend
Fear is not always bad, and sometimes it can be your best friend. If you’re afraid of being in poor health, you’ll work a lot harder at keeping yourself healthy. If you’re afraid of having someone else (like the government), responsible for your financial life you’ll work harder to build your financial safety net. In fact, The only time that fear becomes bad is when it keeps you from doing something you really want to do.
7. Knowledge is Only Power When it’s Used
Some of the smartest people in this world never use their knowledge and therefore never benefit from it. However, when knowledge is applied it becomes active and powerful…it also increases your learning because you begin to learn from experience. When you learn something useful, put it to use as soon as possible.
8. There are Seasons in Life
You’ll have times in your life when everything seems to be happening atonce, then you’ll also have times when nothing seems to be happening. Learn to endure the seasons of life by working hard when you have plenty to do, and by saving your financial resources for times when you may not have as
much. Also, learn to use the slower seasons to rest and recharge yourself.
9. Marry Your Best Friend
Looks fade, so does physical attraction and so does the romantic “puppylove.” If you want to have a lasting courtship and to raise your children as a couple, marry your best friend.
10. Collect Memories
Keep a Journal, take pictures and keep them somewhere safe. Somedayyou’ll be very glad that you did, and so will your generations after you.
11. Choose a Career that Makes You Happy
Life is too short to be unhappy with what you’re doing 40 to 50 hours a week. Not to mention that unhappiness in your career will filter into other areas of your life. Choose a job that you love, and you’ll never have to work another day… and you get paid for it. Not a bad deal.
12. Higher Standards Mean Higher Rewards
Having high expectations for your health, your relationships, your career and your financial life might mean you’ll have to work harder. It might also mean you’ll be disappointed more often. But the rewards that it will bring in strength of character and then success will far outweigh any price you had to pay. Keep your standards high, and don’t settle for less than what you really want.
