Mental Peace

The proverb In a Healthy Body Resides a
Healthy Mind, but other side is also true
that A Healthy Mind can only make a
Healthy Body.

A Healthy mind triggers healthy enzymes in
the body which strengthen bodys immunity system, energizes
the body to function in proper manner and invokes Vital Energy in
us. To be owner of a Healthy Mind, we should take care of our
Mind. Mind should be always in peace. Without peace and
stability mind cant function properly. All our decisions are taken
by our mind and if we ignore its peace and health then all our
thoughts and decisions will also be away from what we intend to
do. Basically mind is the owner/ driver of our body.

The are 10 vital keys which can lead to peace of mind.

1) Dont Indulge without being asked
Sometimes out of decency, many times we extend our help
to known or unknown, which may land us in a fix. The other
may not require our help, but we impose our help on them
and devoid them to do their work by themselves. This actually
decrease / eliminate our proactive help or initiation. If you
give your help and the work further deteriorate, the total
blame will come to you and you will lose you peace of mind.
And some time the person may also think that you are
showing off you knowledge and capabilities and he may
5
think that you are demeaning their skills and
capabilities. So dont indulge unless and until asked for.

2) Forgive and Forget It is a Golden Rule to keep our peace
of mind intact. Many times in our daily life at home and at
office some one hurt our feelings knowingly or knowingly.
We dont keep our calm and we start reacting and out of
patience, we loose our cool and shows our anger and start
fighting with the person. Anger is like keeping burning
coal in hand before throwing on the other person. It will
destroy the peace of mind and all decisions will be wrong
and boomerang us back. Therefore, we should not leave
our peace of mind and think the reason why the person
has reacted in this way. Dont react,
forgive him, say He has lost his cool,
therefore he has reacted in this way.
He is a good person otherwise and
he didnt think bad of me. This
feeling will prevent us to react and
motivate us to forgive him and once
we forgive the person, we normally forget the incident
also. Therefore it is good for us to Forgive others and
Forget the incident.

3) Craving for Making Self Image To showoff, always
keeps our self away from the reality. We normally try
to show off ourselves, which we may not be. This create
a false image of ourselves in our own eyes and dont
improve ourselves in the areas in which we are lagging
behind from others. This is a biggest hindrance in self
progress and mental peace.

6
4) Jealous / Hatred Hatred and Jealousy are the by product
of EGO. EGO is the biggest enemy of peace of mind. And it
gives birth to Jealous and Hatred. Therefore both of these
are also peace killers. Hate/Jealous
comes when others have more than
us or have achieved something we
are unable to achieve. Therefore
instead of hating others learn
from their success and we should
evaluate our reasons of failures and think positive and focus
on our own work / goals and achieve them.

5) Accept only what we can be do In life many time out of
enthusiasm, we accept to do everything which is given or
offered to us. This lands us in fix and over burdened us and
are always short of time to complete all the tasks. Therefore
we should accept to do more, only if we have time, what we
can do efficiently and effectively, otherwise we will be
destroying our peace of mind only.

6) Meditate every day Meditation is the best tool to
control our thoughts and calm
our mind. Turbulent mind doesnt
allow us to take appropriate
decisions. Best time is early
morning in open space, one can
sit in Padmasna and focus in the
middle of the forehead in-between eye with focus on
respiration. This can be repeated at least 10 minutes thrice a
day, In details on mediation keep reading posititude.
Meditation will 7
prevent generation of garbage thoughts in our mind and
will attain peace of mind. Unnecessary thoughts destroy
our peace of mind. Therefore avoid garbage thoughts.

7) Change according to situation Change is inevitable, if
we dont change ourselves according to the situation, then
situation will change us, which will be more pain full than
to change by ourselves. Therefore we should always
understand the situation and align our objectives and
work accordingly. When our objectives are aligned with the
situations, we are high in enthusiasm and ultimately attain
peace of mind. Peace of mind guide us on the right path.

8) Procrastination It is one of the key reason of destroying
peace of mind. When we keep on saying we will do it after
an hour or tomorrow or next month., we initiate the
process of delaying our decisions and execution of jobs in
hand. By lingering on we only pileup all our jobs and a day
will come when many of the dead-lines would have passed
and many of the important task would have reached the
status of Urgent. In that situation we are in fix and unable
to understand which task should be
done first and which to be done latter.
All the job become Urgent. Our mind is
now congested with confusing and
indecisive thoughts and saps away our
peace of mind and ultimately disturb our
bodys metabolism. Therefore to have our
peace of mind intact we should not delay the jobs and takes
action promptly and proactively. Our to- do list should be short.


8
9) One task at one time We should never work in confusion.
Take one task at a time, so that our full concentration and
focus is on one job and we can complete the job in less time.
By keeping ourselves busy doing one task at one time, we
control our mind to get detracted and keep it busy doing
working. If we are taking more tasks at a time, then our focus
will be distributed and many time confused and tired. Many
task at time also disturbs peace of mind.

10) Keep yourself BUSY Empty mind is devils workshop is a
well known proverb and speaks the subject. Devils mind
cant have peace any time. Therefore if we want to keep
peace of mind, we should always keep ourselves busy in one
task or other. If we dont have any tasks at hand we should
read books on personality and skill development, which will
increase our acumen in our field and makes us a good
professional.
Tips on Peace of Mind
Keep Yourself Busy
Dont delay actions Maintain TODO list
Meditate thrice a day
No Hatred/Jealous
Change yourself when situation demands
Forgive and Forget.
Dont indulge without being asked

In our day today life we play with emotions (good or bad) and are
played by emotions by others. We are social animals and have
emotions in us which are shown through our actions. Many times
our emotions and situations induce high energy levels in us and
execute the tasks with ease and we do wonders. Whereas some
times some incidents or situations sap away our energy level and
we are so low on energy meter that we are unable to do even a
small task. It has became a routine that our energy level
fluctuate daily due to uncertainty of the environmental factors.

To have peace, success and joy in life we need to have a
minimum level of energy. First of we should know what are the
situations or factors which effect our energy levels positively and
negatively. Positive energy levels keeps us cool and calm and on
high enthusiasm. We are in a position to create an ambient
environment for innovation and creativity. Whereas negative
energy level sucks all our positive thoughts, actions and stop us
to think in a creative and enthusiastic manner.

We have been taught to believe that
being emotional is always an
interference, something to get rid of,
but actually having some feeling gives
us our zest for life. Negative emotions
are the kind that cloud our judgment
and drain us of any sense of energy
and personal power.

actions, they can be so draining that they literally cause
adverse physically and emotional symptoms to appear.
12
Physical Side effects of energy sappers are that we will have
difficulty in sleeping , bad digestion, heart problems,
experience sweating and chronic fatigue.

Emotionally we become numb, we can have crying episodes
and aggression. These are the Alarms which remind us of
energy Sappers. Therefore we should recognize these alarms
and switch negative sappers to energy boosters. For example,
anger is a signal that tells us our needs to wants are not being
met or that someone or something has be
violated us, or that our Values and beliefs
are being threatened. By resolving the
issue at hand, we can eliminate the energy
sappers, putting ourselves back to where
we want to remain, which is the of the
energy booster.

Key To

Effective Listening


14
According to Justice Oliver Wendell Homes
To be able to listen to others in a sympathetic and
understanding manner is perhaps the most effective
mechanism in the world for getting along with people and
trying up their friendship for good. Too few people practice
the White magic of being good listeners.
Human is a social animal and lives in society along with
parents, relatives, friends, colleagues in office, neighbors, etc.
Every day we come across many people, with some we have to
deal with and with some we may not have to deal. All these
people surrounding us effect us mentally, physically and
socially. Therefore it is very much important and necessary to
know the people around us so the we can live peacefully and
successfully.

We recognize a person by the following factors

1) Physical appearance
2) Social Relations
3) Behavior
4) Attitude
5) Social Status
6) And Communication

By the above we can understand only 10% of a person, 90% is
still undiscovered, as it is just like iceberg.
15
Nobody in this world can define or recognize what is going on
inside a person. How and when a person will react to any
situation? 10% of the body language tells us about a persons
mental setup. His thoughts will appear on his body and body
depicts the thoughts. But rest 90% is undiscovered. Out of
90% persona, 50% can be analyzed by the words he/she
speaks. But to understand others one should have patience to
listen carefully and control over his/her tongue.
Body Language

Attitude
Behavior
Thoughts
Values
Needs

16
To be successful in life, we should know about the persons
around us. We should know what they want, what they like and
what they dislike, what is their behavior and attitude in different
situations. This will help us dealing them in a better way. Life is
all about handling people around you, because they are biggest
influencer of life.

To understand a person we should be a good listener. Everybody
wants that others listen to him and praise him and his Ideas.
Listening is an art. We should practice listening the people
around us and understand them and act accordingly.

Practice the following to practice good listening
a) Focus on Person to whom you are talking We should
understand that if a person is talking, he assume that others
should listen to him and understand what he want and what
he want to say. Therefore we should always look at the person
to whom we are talking and concentrate on the message he
wants to give.

b) Always show deep interest
If we show our deep interest in
listening, half the work is done. Give a
smile and nod in acceptance of his
Idea. He will be happy and gratified.

c) Show Closeness When is talking,
lean towards him. This shows and
indicate that your are taking interest
and listening carefully.

17
d) Ask Questions Ask questions in between the task. This
create confidence in the person to whom we are talking and
will he will try to talk more sense and clearly to put his point.

e) Ask him to elaborate things, where you need to know
more clarification Until they are not through, we
should not interrupt the narrator, which nobody wants
to do. Nobody wants that people should listen first than
only give his/her views.

f) Dont Change the Subject
Dont derail the persons subject,
which may terminate him describing
his issues. Have patience, and wait
till he/she completes.

g) Use the speakers terminology We
should neither change the subject, not change the
terminology. We should discuss on the same subject and in
same terminology.

Focus on Speaker
Show Interest
Ask Questions on the same topic
Ask the speaker to elaborate
Never try to derail the subject
Give suggestions after the speaker finishes
Appreciate his concern and thoughts

Key To

Failure

27
Like success there are factors which helps in failure of a person.
In our life we do all our efforts to success, but we fail to achieve.
Why it happens? What makes us a failure is a matter of
discussion?

There are many factors which contribute to our failures. In this
issue, we will discuss 10 major points which are practiced by the
successful people and are not followed by failures.

1. Not Taking Risk It has been accepted by the successful
people and leaders in their life that they have taken risk in
thinking big and targeting the tough goals. On the other hand
we hear people saying if we have taken risk in their life, then
by this time they would have possessed x property or
Position. But due to not taking risk they have not achieved
what they want to achieve. Therefore it is matter of taking and
accepting risk, that one get success and failures in life.

2. Not Strong and Brave Once we have taken risk, then we
should be bold enough to face both the side of situation. If
we think that they are ready to accept what ever the result of
the activity, definitely result would be
good. By thinking positive, we will
always get positive results and if the
beginning thoughts are discouraging
and negative, then result
would also be same. So be brave and
strong to take risks and face the results.

28
3. Estimating and Analyzing every time Pessimist have a
long list of excuses. They keep on thinking what others are
doing. They are afraid of doing anything new and always keep
on thinking that If I do this, what other people will think?,
Mr. X has done the same, what is the result? He has failed, so
why I should do it?. They always keep on thinking negative
and negative thoughts lead nowhere other than failures. So
start thinking positively, success is yours. No need of
estimating and analyzing too much, just take actions.

4. Always dependent on others For success we have to work
hard and should have trust on our own self. Success doesnt
get in gift, it has to be achieved our self. We have to believe in
ourselves, we will definitely get success. Stop depending on
others.

5. Dont try to set and achieve the Goals Failure dont know
what they want to do in their life. They dont have any goal in
life. That is why they are always failure. Therefore if you want
to be successful in your life, set goals for every
day, every month, every year and in life and try level
best to achieve it. Success comes to those who
think they can. And if you think, you can.

4. Expect result in short time Many people wants the results as
soon as they finishes the task. If the result doesnt come
immediately they start cursing other, time and their self also.
If they get less than what they have expected, then next time
they will not do that task. For success, you need to have
patience and try-try again to do the best and achieve the best.
29
7. Withdrawal when opportunity comes - If you dont have
perseverance towards your work and goal, it shows your
week mental setup. Whenever you get some opportunity, go
with full strength and enthusiasm, then only success will
come. Withdrawal will take you no where. Be open to taking
new tasks.

8. Procrastination It is one of the biggest cause of failures.
Linger on things on tomorrow, next time, etc., take you
towards failures, negativity and converting IMPORTANT TASKS
INTO URGENT. Make a time table for daily and stick to that. At
closing down of the day, look at the table what you have done
and what you are unable to do. Remove those activities which
you have done and add incomplete or not done activities in
nest days to-do table.

9. Afraid of doing Practice Negative thoughts create a negative
personality. If you want to be Strong and successful person
start thinking Positive today itself and never be afraid of doing
practice positive things. Positive tasks and activities seems to
be tough, but once you start doing, they become handy and
easy to achieve.

10. Low in Mental Skills God has gifted all the human beings
with discipline, confidence, trust, concentration, focus,
persistence, etc., All of us have these, but we become
lethargic and wants easy going. For Success these skills are
MUST. Be TOUGH and DISCIPLINED, all other qualities will
automatically immerse in you and you will be able to
complete all the tasks in hand and will accept and welcome
new opportunities in your life. 30
