One of the most sincere forms of respect is actually listening to what the other person has to say.

Try and live a life where people say the following word to you abundantly-'Thank you'
And where you use the following word very sparingly-'Sorry'

Moral of the quote-Help as much as you can and hurt as little or not at all if possible

If you want to succeed
If you want peace of mind
If you want to survive
You have to abandon your anger and ego
You have to be a little flexible
At times you have to take things you don't necessarily deserve with a strong heart
'Coz at times it is the best thing to do
It took me a while to understand this
Sometimes i used to be upset
But gradually i realized that this was the way to go

If you know where you want to be in life
And you sincerely work towards it
You give your heart and soul into it
Then sooner or later you will be there
But if you don't even know where you want to be be
It's kinda' hard to anywhere...isn't it??
If you know what your goal is..you can reach it much more easily

Do not judge someone or something on the basis of what others say...reserve your judgement for that person or thing until and unless you have had your own personal experience.

A person who is constantly trying to change you
Constantly finds faults in you
Constantly criticizes you
Constantly demotivates you
And on top of that claims to be your friend,well-wisher or lover...
...is obviously bullshitting you
Delete this person from your life as soon as possible

A relationship or a friendship cannot be a one-way traffic thing
The effort and communication has to be there from both sides
You don't keep in touch with a friend
And yet expect him to do the opposite
That's just not done
You don't make the effort to give time or do something special for your lady
And yet you are the one complaining
That's just not the way to go

When someone says something hurtful to you,demeans you,insults you or humiliates you....you will feel angry and hurt and undoubtedly you have every right to feel so...but at that moment tell yourself this-"i will never do this to any person, what this person just did to me."

Every single thing that you learn in life is never wasted
In some way or the other it does help you
Either directly or indirectly
It's just that sometimes we don't even realize it

A fearless and positive attitude is one of the strongest attributes you can have
It's amazing as to the things you can do if you possess these two qualities
If you think in your mind that you can do something
Then no matter how difficult it might be..chances are that you will be able do it
On the other hand if you accept defeat in your mind even before trying
Then you will never be able to do a particular thing

Love is a language which the deaf can hear
And the dumb can speak
It is a language which can melt the coldest of hearts
And open every closed door of the soul
Unfortunately,presently the world is so obsessed with hatred
That it has forgotten to speak the language of love

The best place to start looking for love is within yourself
That's the first place you should always look
And if you find it there
Then there is a chance that you might find it somewhere else as well

No adversity can stop you if you are determined to succeed.

While there is nothing wrong in hoping for a bit of luck
Bit depending solely on luck is dangerous and stupid
Work hard and try and make your own luck
'Coz there is no substitute for hardwork
While luck is uncertain
The rewards attached with hardwork are almost always certain

The timing has to be right between a man and a woman
Otherwise even something with potential cannot materialise

Happiness and sanity are an impossible combination-Mark Twain

Be careful whom you give your heart to

Unlike an object...the heart once broken

Cannot be glued back together

Ignoring or overlooking a reality
Doesn't make it any less real
If possible try and prepare yourself for the reality
So that it becomes a bit easy for you to accept it when you finally face it

Patience is not the ability to wait but it is the ability to keep a good attitude while waiting.

Every face tells a story
It's just that with the passage of time one is able to teach oneself as to how to fake it

The first step towards learning from your mistake
Is accepting that you've made a mistake
Be bold enough to admit your mistakes
And smart enough to learn from them

A great future doesn't require a great past.

Never keep a heavy load on your heart
You are depressed or upset
You feel hurt
Or bothered by something
Just let it out
Share it with someone you trust
And who you believe will understand you
There's no point in keeping it suppressed within you
It will only suffocate you
Once you let it out
You will feel much lighter
And better

Never depend on anyone for your happiness or success
'Coz if they ever betray you or hurt you
It can get really difficult to find a way out of that mess

If you can't convince or persuade
Don't force
You have absolutely no ****** right to do that

To the world you may be one person;but to one person you may be the world!

Travelling gives you the opportunity to not only discover new places,new cuisines,new cultures and meet new people...most of all it helps you to know yourself better.

Be it big or small
Peaceful or chaotic
Simple or lavish
There is simply no place like home
There is no substitute for it
The feeling that you get when after a long time you enter your home and smell that familiar smell..ah..so good!
And the feeling you get when hit the bed...sheer sense of relief and joy

Your life is impacted not just by the things you do but also by the things you don't do.

Criticism without proper pointing out of the flaws and suggestions for improvement
Is like telling someone that he is wrong
But not telling him as to why or where he is wrong
And what he can do to rectify the wrong

When you have an issue with someone or vice-versa, try talking to that person and aim to sort it out...don't wait for the other person to come to you..having an ego the size of an ostrich's egg is not going to help matters...you have to abandon your ego...if even after talking to the person things don't work out then so be it...but at least make the effort.

No matter what
Never become your own enemy
'Coz if you do that...you'll be the worst kind
You'll destroy yourself in a manner you can't even imagine
And there is virtually nothing anyone will be able to do to help you

If you don't love someone who thinks otherwise...make it very clear to that person at the very beginning...don't keep playing with that person and giving him or her false hope...it's one of the worst things you can do.

It's important that you remain strong,patient and determined when you've failed...for the path to success is never easy
And it's equally important that you stay humble when you've succeeded for pride and arrogance always causes downfall
Failure shouldn't break you down
And neither should success turn you into a show-off

You can have talent
You can have skill
You can have experience
But if you don't have patience...
...then all the above attributes count for nothing
For if you possess patience
There is virtually nothing that you can't achieve

Never doubt yourself when things are'nt going that great for you...but most importantly...Never ever doubt yourself even when the person closest to you doubts your ability and expresses lack of confidence in you...Have faith...you've been through tougher times..you'll also get through this.

Be the kind of person who never credits only himself for his success but acknowledges the contribution of those who have guided him
And who himself takes full responsibility for his failure and doesn't blame no one else

If you're planning to leave someone
Then please do so before that person falls in love with you
'Coz honestly...the after part is just so shattering

The first step towards achieving success is not being afraid to fail...for if you are afraid to fail, you will not really try and if you don't try...then you will never learn.

It's good to know your limitations
But knowing your limitations doesn't mean that you shouldn't explore the possibilities
Be aware of your constraints
But at the same time also be open to all kinds of possibilities

Memories may fade with the passage of time
But they never die
They will always remain a part of your existence

When inspiration strikes you
It is imperative that you act
Procrastination is not a good option here

As beautiful as a rose is
And as intoxicating it's fragrance might be
It also has it's share of thorns
But if you only focus on the thorns
Then you will never be able to truly appreciate it's beauty
Don't just think and focus on the bad qualities
Choose to look at the good

Respect is a two way street
Don't expect it
If you don't give it
