Nothing can stop a person who has already found their definite goal in life

As the saying goes, "Where there is a will, there is a way", once the person has decided what they want to achieve and set that as their life's ultimate burning desire to be achieved at any cost, there is no power in the universe that can stop them from achieving it.

Now in one of my previous posts I mentioned there is a marked difference between wishes, desires and goals. A wish or desire is something that a person thinks is nice to have, maybe by looking at others and what they have, maybe due to the feelings of jealousy towards someone who has already got it, or maybe due to a temporary boost of motivation or some arbitrary resolution, like on a new year's day. But that in itself does not transform into a goal for them. 

Many motivational speakers say that to turn this wish into a goal, one needs to start with a plan and perform daily actions towards achieving it, only then it becomes a defined goal. As long as you haven't yet taken any efforts towards starting the journey towards this wish and don't have a well defined plan, it stays just that, a nice to have wish.

In a way that is true to a certain extent, you surely need to do all that, but mostly they miss out on an important step before all this, which actually turns this wish into a goal. And that step is to want to achieve this thing more than anything else and at any cost. 

It has to be a burning desire that you think about almost every moment of your life, that is when the magic starts to happen. The mind automatically starts working towards this without actual conscious effort on your part. You will start seeing things and opportunities and doors starting to open, which you didn't even know were there earlier. 

It's something that the new age "Law of attraction" pundits fleetingly capture into their teachings, but their version is quite superficial and although it's a good initiation into this area, the actual sense of this philosophy needs you to dedicate more of yourself, than just wishing and waiting for it to happen. 

So lucky is the person who has already found that burning desire and purpose in their life, that they can define as a goal, because if you are one of those lucky ones then, believe me, you are not far from manifesting and achieving it in your life.

Understanding anger, it's ill-effects and how to successfully manage it - Part 2

So, continuing from the previous post regarding how anger is one of the most basic emotions and learning to handle it successfully is one of the most important life skills. ( Click here to read part 1 ) But before we learn about the different ways, we can handle the feelings of anger, it is important to understand why we need to do it in the first place. So here are some of the harms and ill-effects that have been studied and proven for people who have issues of anger management.  One of the main things, that you might be able to relate with easily as well, is that, more often than not, we tend to regret losing our temper and getting angry, as soon as we have calmed down a bit. And it mostly does not matter who was at fault and how stupid an action he or she had taken to enrage you. So, even though the anger stayed with you for probably a few seconds or a few minutes – or maybe in some cases for up to a couple of hours – the regret that we feel stays with us for almost the w...

Tips for successfully managing your anger - Part 3

Like we mentioned in the previous post, the ill-effects of rage and anger can be extremely harmful, both physically and emotionally. ( Click here to read part 2 )  So, it is important that we also learn how to handle it and find ways of altering our behaviour and better alternatives.  We know that it is not always possible to control the emotions and no matter how calm a person you are, there would be times where things could get on your nerves and elicit an adverse reaction in rage. Here are some of the ways that you can manage anger and your responses to it.  The first thing that might be helpful is to understand is how the brain works and what causes this reaction. Anger is one of the most basic emotions and has been a crucial part of human evolution. It is part of the fight or flight response of the brain, whereby it was also important for survival. The amygdala in the brain releases a series of stress hormones like epinephrine, which affect your overall prepared...
