Wise thoughts, expressed in concise phrases, can easily inspire you to new achievements. They urge you to learn, develop, become better and grow your mindset.
This is 10 Quotes To Grow Your Mindset:
1. When we are no longer able to change a situation – we are challenged to change ourselves.
– Victor Frankl, author of Man’s Search for Meaning.
It is not always possible to influence the actions of another person. You cannot change people, things or situations following our wishes. So, when faced with an insoluble problem, it’s worth taking a step back and looking at ourselves from the outside, because this is the only thing that we can change.
2. Be the Change You Wish To See in the World
This is a compelling call to take full responsibility for your own life. Practice what you preach. Gandhi said that we must actively create the changes that we want to see in the world. First, we must change, not someone else or something else. Complaints and criticism from a safe distance are not enough. We need to be responsible for ourselves and our environment.
3. He who has a why to live can bear almost anyhow.
When you find your real goal in life, you can overcome nearly any difficulties that you encounter. In other words, if you find out what you live for, you will overcome more and more challenging obstacles with less resistance, realizing the importance of achieving the final result.
4. In our struggle for freedom, truth is the only weapon we possess.
– Dalai Lama
To grow as a person, and to be truly free, you must remain faithful to yourself. When you ask yourself if recent decisions, current work situations, or future long-term intentions match what you want from life, try to turn off rationalism. Hear your first instinctive answers. The truth is unpleasant, but to move forward, it is necessary to recognize it.
5. Twenty Years From Now You Will Be More Disappointed By The Things You Didn’t Do Than By The Ones You Did Do
– Mark Twain
Mark Twain encourages us to actively and boldly go to what lies ahead. Use the opportunities that the unknown casts. We are often afraid to do something without knowing the final result, and choose the usual, “maybe another time.” Make up your mind and see where it leads you.
6. A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new.
– Albert Einstein
Einstein advises courage and trying something new.
Making mistakes is essential to learn something. No one is in balance when climbing a bicycle for the first time. We look with admiration at the skill of a professional, but we did not see how many times he fell, broke his knees and was disappointed. Making mistakes is the most significant part in the path to success in any business.
7. Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.
– Buddha
Acutely reacting to the situation, experiencing anger, we intend to direct him to another person. But this primitive way of thinking always turns into negative consequences for us, increasing pain and aggravating trauma.
8. Life will give you whatever experience is most helpful for the evolution of your consciousness. How do you know this is the experience you need? Because this is the experience you are having at the moment.
– Eckhart Tolle, author of the bestselling book “The Power of the Present Moment”
We cannot fool life. There are no shortcuts. Every bad situation is our opportunity for growth. A person gets what attracts at the moment. If we do not learn from our mistakes, then we live the same situations again and again, until, finally, we change.
Eckhart Tolle reminds us that life always happens in the present and nowhere else. To feel it entirely means to centre your consciousness on the here and now.
9. Don’t take anything personally because by taking things personally, you set yourself up to suffer for nothing.
– Don Miguel Ruiz, author of the book “The Four Agreements: A Practical Guide to Personal Freedom”
You suddenly become incredibly free when you do not take anything personally. When you understand this, you will not be hurt by careless remarks or actions of other people. This incredibly extends the possibilities of life.
10. Fear defeats more people than any other one thing in the world.
– Ralph Waldo Emerson
Fear is not our enemy. This is a compass that points to areas in which we need to grow. Of course, this is not about fear of a bear in the forest. It is incredibly important to learn to distinguish between fictional fears in your head, which are often associated with money, weight loss, etc., from real danger.
Your inner fears are just pointers to a better life, look where they will lead you.
