It's easy to get busy in this world and forget to take care of yourself, who you are the most important person in your life. Self-love isn't just a trendy idea; it's an important part of living a full and happy life. Here are some real-world steps that will help you love yourself and change your life. 1. Know how valuable you are Being aware of your own worth is the first step toward loving yourself. You are important just because you are. Every day, take a moment to think about your skills and what you've done well. If it helps, write them down. Enjoy what makes you different, and know that you deserve love and respect. 2. Show kindness to yourself It's common for us to be our own worst judges. Being self-compassionate means being kind and understanding to yourself the way you would be with a friend. Instead of scolding yourself when you mess up, remember that it's okay to be flawed. Take what you've learned and don't judge yourself again. 3. Set limits that are healthy Setting limits is important for keeping your mental and physical health in good shape. Learn to say "no" to things that make you feel bad or that go against what you believe in. Spend time with people who respect your limits and make you feel good. Don't forget that it's okay to put your wants first. 4. Do things that you enjoy. Take time to do things that make you happy and satisfied. Doing things you enjoy, like reading, drawing, camping, or dancing, can make you feel much better about your mood and self-esteem. These things will help you remember that you deserve to have fun in life. 5. Take good care of your body The state of your mind and emotions are closely connected to your physical health. Eat healthy foods, drink plenty of water, and work out regularly to keep your body in good shape. Put sleep first and do things to relax, like deep breathing or meditation. You are taking care of your mind and spirit when you care for your body. 6. Learn to be thankful Being thankful is a strong way to keep a good attitude. Take a moment every day to think about what you're thankful for. By doing this, you can change your attention from what's missing in your life to what's already there. Being thankful makes you happy and helps you love yourself. 7. If you need to, get professional help. The path to self-love can be hard at times, and it's okay to ask for help. A therapist or counselor can help you get past any emotional or mental problems by giving you advice and support. Remember that it's not a sign of weakness to ask for help. 8. Affirmations and telling yourself nice things Positive statements should be a part of your daily life. You can change the way you think about yourself by saying things like "I deserve love and happiness," "I am worthy," and "I am enough." Positive self-talk can change how you feel about yourself over time. 9. Don't compare things. Comparing yourself to other people will only make you feel less valuable. Your road is different from someone else's, and it's not fair to compare them to yours. Pay attention to your growth and be proud of your wins, no matter how small they may seem. 10. Let yourself off the hook Holding on to mistakes and regrets from the past can make it hard to love yourself fully. Let go of any guilt or shame and learn to forgive yourself. Remember that you are only human and that making mistakes is a normal part of growing up. Accept the flaws you have and move on with a lighter heart. Building a strong love for yourself and improving your general health can be achieved by doing these things every day. Always keep in mind that loving yourself is a process, not a goal. Take it easy on yourself and enjoy every step you take toward a better, happy life.

बड़ा होना और वृद्ध होना एक-दूसरे से बहुत अलग हैं। अनुभव या गलतियों से सीखने वाले बड़े होते हैं, और बार-बार एक ही गलती करने वाले बस बड़े होते हैं। एक छोटा बच्चा जो अपने बड़ों पर अधिक निर्भर है, आसानी से अपने बड़ों के साथ सहमत हो सकता है। किशोर या बड़ा बच्चा अधिक जिज्ञासु होता है, इसलिए वह अपने बड़ों से अधिक सवाल पूछता है। वह हमेशा सब कुछ जानना चाहता है। जब एक किशोर एक युवा वयस्क की ओर मुड़ता है, उसके विचारों और व्यवहार में व्यापक परिवर्तन होता है। युवावस्था में, हम सब कुछ जानते हैं और दूसरों के अनुभवों और परिस्थितियों का आकलन किए बिना विचार बनाते हैं। मैं एक निजी इंजीनियर के रूप में अपने करियर के शुरुआती दौर में नई दिल्ली में एक बड़ी दूरसंचार कंपनी में काम करने के लिए बहुत उत्साहित था। जब मैं उनके स्विच सेंटर में गया, तो मैंने देखा कि हजारों छोटे तार विभिन्न प्रणालियों से जुड़े हुए थे. जब मैंने इसके बारे में पूछा, तो मुझे पता चला कि ये प्रत्येक फोन ग्राहक से कनेक्ट करने और पत्राचार करने के लिए प्रयोग किए जाते हैं। मैं ये तार कहाँ और कैसे जुड़े हुए हैं समझ नहीं पाया। यह मेरी पढ़ाई के दौरान मुझे कभी नहीं पता था। मुझे इसे समझने में कई महीने लगेंगे अगर मैं इस पर काम करूँ। लेकिन अधिक जानकारी देने के लिए मुझे बगल में बैठे एक बहुत बूढ़े सज्जन से पूछने को कहा गया है। जो मैंने कुछ मिनट पहले देखते हुए उनकी उपस्थिति और पोशाक को नजरअंदाज कर दिया था। बाद में यह व्यक्ति एक बड़ा मार्गदर्शक बन गया। उन्हें इस तरह की गतिविधियों को संभालने की औपचारिक शिक्षा भी नहीं दी गई थी, लेकिन समस्या को संभालने का उनका अभूतपूर्व अनुभव था। जब हम सभी युवा विशेषज्ञ चुनौती का सामना करने में असफल होते हैं, तो यह साहब आसानी से समस्या को हल कर सकते हैं। उन्हें अपने काम में सर्वश्रेष्ठ बनाने के लिए उनका प्रगतिशील ज्ञान और अनुभव ने एक उदाहरण दिया। इस घटना ने मुझे एहसास दिलाया कि हम दूसरों की असली क्षमताओं को नहीं जानते, बस उनके दृष्टिकोण को देखकर उनका मूल्यांकन करते हैं। अनुभव एक महान शिक्षक है जो जीवन की हर स्थिति या पहलू में शिक्षा देता है, साथ ही आध्यात्मिकता भी। यदि हमें कोई पद या जिम्मेदारी दी गई है, तो दूसरों के प्रति सम्मान और विनम्रता से यह निष्कर्ष निकालना महत्वपूर्ण है। लेकिन सफलता हमें उत्साहित कर सकती है, इसे बनाए रखने के लिए हमें विनम्र होना चाहिए। दूसरे शब्दों में, कोई भी व्यक्ति उच्च गुणों को छू सकता है, लेकिन जो व्यक्ति निरंतर उन गुणों को अपनाता है और विनम्रता से उन गुणों को अपनाता है, वह किंवदंती है। कुल मिलाकर, यह अनुभव है जो हमें कल्पना से यथार्थवाद की ओर ले जाता है। युवाओं को देवत्व के मार्ग पर आगे बढ़ने के लिए विनम्रता, करुणा और सम्मान के गुणों को अपनाना अनिवार्य है। युवाओं में चमत्कार करने की बहुत ऊर्जा है, लेकिन उन्हें मार्गदर्शक चाहिए।

हमारे भौतिक मूल्य से अधिक मूल्यवान अमूर्त और असीम सार हमारे भीतर है।हम सिर्फ अपने भौतिक अस्तित्व द्वारा प्रतिबंधित विचारों और क्रियाओं का एक समूह हैं। हमारे शरीर में कुछ सीमाएँ हैं, लेकिन हमारी आत्मा और मन में कोई सीमा नहीं है। ईश्वर वास्तव में आत्मा का साथी है। हमारे असीम सार हमारी वास्तविक पहचान है। आध्यात्मिक शक्ति की वास्तविक क्षमता को मुक्त करने की दिशा में पहला कदम स्वयं को पहचानना है। शरीर के भीतर से उठने की प्रक्रिया, यह यात्रा अंदर से बाहर की ओर जाती है। यह विशाल महासागर के साथ एक बूंद की पहचान खो देने के समान है। बूंद ने वाष्पीकरण से पहले अपने असली उद्देश्य को पूरा कर लिया। मैं वही बन जाता हूँ जो मैं करता हूँ। एक व्यक्ति को अनंत को गले लगाने के लिए सीमा की सीमा से उठना चाहिए, क्योंकि वह एक असीम और असीम ईश्वर के सर्वशक्तिमान गुणों से परिपूर्ण है। विभिन्न सीमाओं (जैसे जाति, रंग, पंथ, धर्म, आयु आदि) से बाहर सोचें। अपने मन की शक्ति से खुद को ऊपर उठाएं, और खुद को नीचा न दिखाएं, क्योंकि मन स्वयं मित्र भी हो सकता है और दुश्मन भी।" मानव मस्तिष्क को ऊपर उठाने का रास्ता एक संकीर्ण-केंद्रित मानसिकता से शुरू होता है और धीरे-धीरे एक व्यापक दृष्टिकोण की ओर बढ़ता है। हमारे मन की असली विशेषताएँ असीम हैं। हम अपने मन की असली विशेषताओं को पहचानना शुरू करते हैं| हमारे मानसिक क्षितिज को अपनी तत्काल सीमाओं से परे व्यापक बनाने के लिए हमें सीमाओं को सीमित से असीम पैमाने तक विस्तारित करना चाहिए। भ्रम में डूबा हुआ मन तब तक रहता है जब तक वह अपनी स्वयं लगाई गई सीमाओं से आगे नहीं बढ़ता और अपनी असली स्थिति को प्राप्त नहीं करता। मछली के आयामों, जो हमेशा अपने आसपास के वातावरण के सीधे आनुपातिक होते हैं, हमारे दिमाग की तरह ही काम करता है। जब एक छोटे से तालाब से एक बड़े महासागर या नदी में स्थानांतरित की जाती है, तो मछली अपने सर्वोत्तम आकार को प्राप्त करती है। इसलिए, मन की पहचान को सीमित करने से इसकी असली क्षमता सीमित हो जाएगी। मन को अपनी असली पहचान को अपनाकर अनंत संभावनाओं को महसूस करने दें। "मन मित्र भी हो सकता है और स्वयं का शत्रु भी हो सकता है।" मन का असली सार असीम और रूपहीन है, इसलिए यह सर्वशक्तिमान ईश्वर के साथ अटूट मित्रता बनाता है, जिसमें ये गुण भी हैं। जब मन भगवान के साथ अपना संबंध बनाए रखता है, तो वह खुश होता है और खुश रहता है; यह तब होता है जब मन स्वयं का मित्र बन जाता है। इसके विपरीत, जब मन संबंध बनाए रखने में असफल रहता है या अपने सच्चे साथी के गुणों से मेल नहीं खाता है, तो यह संकीर्णता में गिर जाता है, जो इसे अपने दुश्मन में बदल देता है, जिससे बेचैनी, चिंता और क्रोध पैदा होता है। भ्रम की बाधाओं को तोड़ते हुए जागृत मन अपने दृष्टिकोण को सीमित से असीम तक बढ़ा सकता है। शाश्वत आनंद की स्थिति में रहने और अनुभव करने के लिए परमात्मा के असली गुणों को बनाए रखना आवश्यक है| परमात्मा के असीम गुणों के साथ प्रतिध्वनित होने से यह सीमित से अनंत में बदल जाता है, जिससे यह अनंत आनंद और गहन पूर्ति का अनुभव कर सकता है। यह प्रेम की अधिक भावनाओं को जन्म देगा, एक ऐसी भावना कि हर मानव आत्मा में देवत्व की क्षमता है, कि कोई दुश्मन नहीं है, बस दोस्त और प्रियजन हैं। अंततः, जब हमारा मन अपने वास्तविक साथी के साथ जुड़ता है, तो हम अनंत संभावनाओं को पार कर सकते हैं।  ईश्वर के ज्ञान से अपने मन को पोषित करके सभी लोगों के लिए प्रेम की भावना विकसित करें। सभी की भलाई सुनिश्चित करें और जगह-जगह प्यार और खुशी फैलाने के लिए हर संभव प्रयास करें। सच्चे आनंद की खोज करते हुए सर्वशक्तिमान, अनंत और असीम ईश्वर के गुणों से जुड़े रहें और उनके अनुरूप रहें।

We all behold an intangible and limitless essence in us that has greater worth than our physical form.   We are more than a combination of thoughts and deeds restricted by our physical existence. People have rightly asserted that we are all spiritual beings experiencing a human existence. Our bodies have their limitations, but our souls and minds have no boundaries, no barriers. Our true identity is the limitless essence we hold in ourselves. Realizing oneself is the first step in releasing a spiritual being's true potential. Having said that, rising above the barriers levied by the body and limited mindsets can only offer a soulful and blissful experience to one and all. The process of rising above the body begins from within. It is a journey that goes from inward to outward. It's akin to a droplet losing its identity and uniting with the vast ocean. The drop accomplished its real goal before evaporation. I become what I practice, and the observer becomes what they observe. Enhance the mindset beyond boundaries like caste, color, creed, religion, age, and others. “Elevate yourself through the power of your mind, and not degrade yourself, for the mind can be the friend and also the enemy of the self.” The path to elevating the human mind starts with a narrow-focused mindset and gradually broadens to wider perspectives. The true characteristics of our mind are infinite. As soon as we begin to recognize the true attributes of our mind, it continues to expand.  According to scripture, our minds operate on four levels. Mana: controlled by emotions. Wisdom, also known as "Vivek.". Ego: a self-proclaimed identity. Chitta: referred to as awareness. To elevate the mind from limited to limitless, we must engage our wisdom to take the driving seat and enrich ourselves; in other words, it is our wisdom and experience that uplift and expand our abilities.  We must broaden our mental horizons beyond our immediate constraints by expanding the boundaries from a restricted to a boundless scale. Unless the mind extends beyond its self-imposed limitations and attains its real state, it remains wrapped in illusion. Our minds work very similarly to a fish's dimensions, which are always directly proportional to its surroundings. A fish naturally attains its optimal size when relocated from a tiny pond to a big ocean or river. Hence, narrowing the mind's identity to a limited aspect would limit its true potential. Let the mind experience infinite possibilities by embracing its true identity. As the second line of the same shloka says, "The mind can be the friend and also the enemy of the self." Since the mind's true essence is formless and boundless, it forms an unwavering friendship with God , who also possesses these attributes. When the mind maintains its connection with God, it experiences bliss and peace; this is when our mind becomes a friend to ourselves. Conversely, when the mind fails to maintain connection or does not align with the qualities of its true companion, it descends into narrowmindedness, which turns it into its enemy, causing restlessness, anxiety, and anger. A mind that achieves awareness can expand its perspective from the limited to the limitless, breaking through the barriers of illusions.     The soul and the super soul share identical characteristics, so it is necessary to hold onto the true attributes of the super soul to experience and reside in a state of eternal bliss. Resonating with a super soul's boundless qualities transforms it from restricted to infinite, allowing it to experience endless delight and profound fulfillment. This would stir up greater emotions of love, a sense that every human soul holds the potential for divinity, a feeling that there are no enemies, only friends and loved ones.  In conclusion, our mind can rise above finite to infinite possibilities if aligned with its real companion. Let us cultivate feelings of love for all people by nourishing our minds with wisdom, and ensure everyone's well-being and make every effort locally to contribute to the global spread of love and happiness.

Stepping out of your comfort zone can lead to personal breakthroughs and increased self-confidence. Seek Feedback and Self-Reflection: To grow and improve, it's important to seek feedback from others and engage in self-reflection.

An individual's responses to any situation revolved around three spheres: control, influence, and acceptance. ‘Control’ relates to what we can directly make it happen as a result of our own choices, regardless of the support from others. Therefore, our area of control can only relate to one’s self and, for that matter, only to our conscious self. 'Influence is defined by our network of relationships. The key to influence lies in understanding the human condition, specialization, conversational skills, and the building of relations. While ‘Acceptance’ enables us to positively choose where we should place our energy and focus. But sometimes we misinterpret and consider acceptance as a sign of weakness, denial, deferral, or inaction. Nevertheless, It is essential to understand and fit the sphere in our daily life and address the situation wisely. Similarly, in spirituality, a sense of propriety is also determined from the wisdom of deciding the appropriate response in each situation. Therefore, “decorum” is not just dos and don’ts but rather a kind of sensibility that can tell if something is “suitable” or “appropriate.” It is a concept that belongs to wisdom rather than to strict rules. Looking from a different dimension, we admit that the future of every individual throws two apprehensions of life: first, the certainty of death, and second, the uncertainty of everything else in the future. Let us understand what matters to an individual in the uncertainty of the future. In the journey of life, every breath we are taking is a new one, and every moment we are living in a new one. One can’t change the past, nor do we have control over the future. Yet sometimes we encounter instances when we feel that life is stopped for a moment, which might be due to our own perception, but the journey of life continues. Similarly, there are some instances when we feel that life has become full of extreme fluctuations, but even in that situation, life is still continued with its own steady speed. Thus, an indispensable agility in handling every situation of life is always looked for. Referring to a scientific 'term'resonance’ which is a phenomenon that occurs when the natural frequency of a product is at or close to forcing frequency. Taking an example of a swing that is based on mechanical'resonance', It is like a pendulum with a single natural frequency depending on its length or size. If a series of regular pushes are given to the swing, its movement can be built immensely. But If pushes are given irregular, the swing will hardly move. Another example is setting up Radio or transmitter, which we used to have a few decades ago where we turn the knob of a radio to tune a station, we are changing the natural frequency of the electrical circuit of the receiver to make it equal to the broadcast frequency of the radio station. When the two frequencies match, we are able to hear the desired station. But if we unable to tune to the right frequency, we not only fail to listen to our favorite station but also hear unwanted distortion or noise. it is not the situation but how we respond in that situation matters the most, Our mind has normal tendency to hold negative thoughts and carry away with the circumstances without knowing the fact that situation or circumstances will never remain same for anyone, Sometimes it is favorable and sometimes situation turns out to be unfavorable.
