To gain trust

Love if you wish to gain trust.

Love if you want honesty and loyalty.

Love if you yearn to succeed in your undertakings.

Love if you desire hope.

If you give out love and still don’t get the trust, honesty, loyalty and hope, give out love even more still. Love breeds all the great things we crave for.

Learn to love and we will learn to live.

The end

The end of one thing is the beginning of another. To some their job loss leads to their own business and freedom. To others the end of a relationship opens their heart to a better one. A new page of our life story closes an old one.

In fact can we be 100% sure that death is the end of life?

Effectiveness vs. efficiency

Effectiveness: doing the right thing

Efficiency: doing things the right way

We need to be both effective and efficient. Not being effective makes us lose sight of what you want from doing the thing you’re doing. Not being efficient means will affect the quality of our work you want as a result of our hard work.

What makes us stronger?

Hard times with which disappointment, pain and fear come. Like Friedrich Nietzsche said, “That which does not kill us makes us stronger.”

Meaning of life

Meaning of life cannot be realized by thinking, but experimenting. By experimenting, we live, really live instead of existing. By experimenting, life goes in depth though probably not in length.

Life equates existence; living is experimenting. — Click to Tweet this

We need more problems…

…because what follows is solution. My guess is like me, how you’ve arrived where you are at now has resulted from the solutions to your problems in life.

Time’s ripe to change our conventional thinking about problems. See them as destructive and you’ll get low quality solution. See them as a lesson learned by doing and you’ll find a solution worth sharing with the world.

Quick fix v. solution

We look for a quick fix in crisis. This can hastily contrive remedy that alleviates a problem only for the time being. But in the long run, it works only if we don’t lose sight of our guiding principles and values. A quick fix should therefore correspond to them if we look for a solution.

Happiness is for amateurs

The phenoms like Buddha and Jesus did not live to be happy but to be enlightened. We don’t have to be another Buddha or Jesus but we should definitely learn to break free of the unhappy state of mind and take happiness for granted.

What makes us a life (and probably death) pro is to ‘act’ with doing or non-doing/ wu wei. ‘Act’ with the end in mind and free of disturbing emotions like anger, hatred and greed. ‘Act’ with mastery.

Action could also be letting go of our disturbing emotions and accepting situation as is.

Taking the leap

It’s scary to take the leap into uncertainty. It may lead to complete failure. Yet, there is so much to learn when we do take the leap into uncertainty and as Swiss philosopher, poet and critic Henri Frederic Amiel put it, Uncertainty is a refuge of hope.
