Phew…what a year 2015 has been! Looking back,
this year has taught me many important life lessons which I shall be carrying
with me for the rest of my life. As the year is about to draw to a close, I
thought I will share some of the life lessons I learnt and hopefully they will
be useful to some of you as well. Here goes (in no particular order)…
Trust Your Self
This year I learnt the true significance of trusting my Self.
There were times when I had to rely solely on my intuition for making important
decisions and thankfully, I have not regretted any of them. I learnt that no
matter how well surrounded we are, there will be decisions that one needs to
make alone and during those times, it is important to rely on one’s intuition
and just trust one Self.
Move On!
There comes times in pretty much everyone’s lives when
problems seem insurmountable but guess what, there are some that cannot really
be solved. Maybe those are just not in our control. This year I learnt that
problems or no problems; just keep moving on. As I practised this more and
more, problems either sorted themselves out or I found some solutions cropping
up!
I am responsible for my own Happiness
The truth is I am responsible for my own happiness. Nothing
out there can really change the state of my mind. Happiness is within me and it
is my responsibility to connect with it. It is easy to complain and grumble but
if we really want to be light and joyful from within, then looking into One
Self is the only way.
Do stuff that scares you!
Yes, you got that right! Do at least something that you are
afraid of. This year, I got adventurous and did a few things that generally
scare me; on of them being climbing a mountain. I am generally afraid of
heights but once I challenged myself and did it, the tremendous sense of
freedom that followed was indescribable!
It is the Journey that counts
Whatever life brings, it is important to note that it is the
journey that counts. Yes, we all have goals but in the process of achieving those
goals, it is important to enjoy the journey and the little moments that make things
interesting. I used to be a workaholic, always focussed on results and outcomes,
but this year has taught me to take things easy and enjoy the journey as much
as the destination.
Hope you could relate to some of these lessons and if you
found it interesting, please feel free to comment and share.
