The Golden Rules

# Peace of Mind: If you

a re a t p e a c e w i t h

yourself, you are at

peace with the world.

Happiness is within, and

not outside you.

# Mind Matters: Everything in life boils down to

your Mind, the ultimate source of your Peace and

Happiness. It's all in the mind. You and your mind

will decide whether you are happy or not. All

weathers of life are not same, But if you decide,

They will be same.

# Perception: Your happiness

boils down to how you see the

world and people around you.

The way you perceive things

will decide your mood for the Day. The way you

choose your responses, instead of reactions.

# Contentment: Be content with what God has

offered you to live with. It is more than enough

compared to what you actually require.

Half Empty Half Filled

# Karma & responsibility: Be responsible for your action and do Karma. You only have choice to perform, results will be decided by almighty. Things may go in your favor or may not go. But don't give up. Keep trying and live your life the way you want to live.

Engage: Engage your mind with constructive & fruitful activities, to avoid negative thoughts & remain cheerful.

# Change is inevitable: Good or bad moments will come and go. It will not stay forever. Cherish the good moments and be strong during tough times.

# You have a choice: You always have a choice to responses of life. Choose Happiness, love & peace.

# Happiness always comes i n s m a l l p a c k a g e s : Happiness is not about possessing cars, homes, wealth. It always comes in small packages, making some one smile, helping someone, playing with kids, talking to elders, loving them respecting them. It can be a small bicycle ride or a 10 minute swim.

# Limited Expectations: Have l imited

expectations, because there is no end to rat race.

Take time to pause and enjoy what you already

possess. Do not leave any regret for tomorrow.

Fulfill your dreams today.

# Family: Give love and

time to your Family.

# Quality life: Go for Quality,

not Quantity. It doesn't

matter how many holidays

you went on. What really

matters is how well you have

enjoyed them. You can enjoy

your vacation even in your

beautiful home.

# Giving: If you want to receive something in life,

start giving. Give Love, Peace and Happiness to

others. They will be returned to you, in some form

or the other. Give surprises to people, and put a

smile on their face. They love surprises.

# Sharing: Share things that

you can. Share knowledge. It

will multiply. Give away things

that you do not need. Remove

clutter from your home, mind

and Life.

# Letting Go: Let go of things which you can not

hold on to, or things which are bothering you and

eating your mind. You will feel very relieved. It is

difficult, but try it.

# Forgive: Forgive yourself and others. Don't be

so serious about your life, 24 hours a day, 7 days a

week. Relax and have fun. Everything is

momentary. It will end, eventually.

# Improve : Person who disturbs you regularly, is

an immediate signal for you to improve the

situation with that person.

# Detachment: Do not get very attached to any

thing or person. If that thing does not exist

tomorrow, you should be able to survive without

it. Love them, like them, but only to an extent.

presence is not required or it's not worth it, from

any situation or from the life of any person.

# Humility: Always be humble and stick to your

roots.

count your blessings. There are people who are

less fortunate, then you in this world.

# Positive: Being positive throughout adversity is

the only option left with us. So please be positive.

It will take you away from distress and move you to

better direction.

# Living each Moment: Try to live each and every

moment of your life. Be present physically and

mentally, wherever you are and whatever activity

you are doing. Listen with all your attention, if you

are listening to someone. Focus 100%, if you are

performing a task. There will be good moments,

bad moments and also, at times, boring moments.

Just live through the experience. Life is short.

Make most of it.

# Flexibility: Always remain flexible under all

circumstances. If things do not go your way, don't

get frustrated. Be flexible and wise enough to

accept the sudden change and respond to it with a

calm mind.

required. Not everything in life happens as per

your wish list. In the end everything will stabilize,

but until that time, have patience to go with the

flow and wait for your time to come.
