In this world, we all are busy managing our businesses, institutions, houses etc. We are successful to some extent, as long as everything comes out the way we had expected.
We should stop and ask ourselves, "Are not we neglecting our own self while managing our day- to -day activities?" We should see the state of our mind while facing the crisis. We should check if we are not on the roller coaster of emotional responses. If we get stressed during the turmoils of life, then this is alarming. We should start focussing on our own self, otherwise the darkness of despair will take over our life to suffer mentally, physically and financially
Our life is made up of choices and decisions made by us. The time when you wake up, the books that you read and the movies you watch and your attitude play a vital role in shaping your life. To live a healthier and a happier life, you should strive to do those things that are good for you even if it may not be pleasant for you.
In Bhagwad Gita, Shree Krishna has advised Arjuna to do every karma with full passion, but do not get entangled into the results of that karma. When we perform actions in this way, the results are bound to be great. We can also remain calm as we are fully in the present.
You should try to get up a little bit earlier, so that you can spend some time on yourself. We should start the day right. Early hours of the day, when you get up is the golden time of the day. Use this time wisely. This time is for meditation, yoga, exercise and reading some good stuff. This is fuelling for your day. It will keep you charged throughout the day.
Some key factors for self management are:
•Believe in the higher power watching you and giving you strength.
•Take self responsibility for your feelings and emotions.
•Stay relaxed in body and mind.
•Schedule some time for physical activity.
•Before reacting to any situation, there is a minute window of decision. Use it.
•Don't hold on to grudges and forgive.
•Witness your breathing.
•Count your blessings and see the bright side of things.
Last, but not least help others. This will give you great satisfaction and peace. Success in the outside is nothing, unless we are happy and fulfilled inside.
If we manage our self well, all the other aspects that is health, wealth and relationships are bound to be managed well. Live your life fully and maintain your poise while going through the journey called life.
