Eternal Truths

Every time you feel low as a man and the inner voice drags you down, making you feel worthless and powerless, be quick to identify the futility of such thoughts and uproot them from your psyche. Your responsibilities don't change irrespective of your own perception. Those who are assumed to be responsible are also assumed to lead. The world likes it or not, whether you like it or not, are both irrelevant. Thus you might as well part ways with your thought and lead to the best of your ability. In this sense, thoughts in a man is an illness.

I look up at the night sky and see light rays from different stars located at different distances reach my eye at the same time. I am observing different pasts at what I consider as present. What better example to destroy the illusion of time constructed by our mind. Doesn't mean time doesn't exist. It is just not what it seems to us. What we perceive is just an illusion. Being trapped in our minds is being trapped in time that mind constructs for us.

You have made peace when grievances transform into understanding and anger paves the way for love. All the bitterness evaporates leaving behind the sweetness, with veil of arrogance and ignorance lifted showing forth humility, knowledge and wisdom. https://twitter.com/OnEternalTruths/status/1678270333768331264

A person who knows to take losses with grace is a winner. He has already won the game of life. He will sooner or later taste success as it is an inevitability. For such a man, wins and losses are the same and do not hold the power to excite or depress him.

Do not discuss your problems and feelings of low confidence even amongst closest of friends to the extent that they start equating you to your problems. It is hard to get rid of the image of being a needy person once it has been established. Eventually you will be left with people who come to you to feel good about themselves. They are happy as long as they are doing better than you. No personal growth can happen in such an environment.

Uncertainty in thoughts, waste of time & effort are essential in creation. These cannot be optimized. Expect to end the day with a messy workplace, confused mind & body drained of energy when involved in the act of creation. Sorting & creating new mess is reserved for next day. It is an error to think one can engage in the act of creation without disorder and disruption. An orderly production is only possible during replication and succeeds a messy creation.

Trust is nothing but guarantee of stability in unstable circumstances. A man who changes behavior based on circumstances is a man who will never be trusted. A trustworthy man is detached from his circumstances and maintains a stable behavior amidst ensuing chaos.

Freedom is about having options, clarity is about eliminating options. Freedom is useless without clarity, leaving you at the whims of luck. You are in the middle of ocean without clarity on the course. You can go wherever you want but none useful without clarity.

The idea of quality time implies that there exists other time without quality. This is one of the root cause of leading a miserable life. Every moment of your life is quality. Each moment spent on fulfilling your responsibilities, realizing your potential is quality.

Spirituality takes different appearance depending on your life circumstances. If you are poor, spirituality means to acquire power, wealth through the way of competency. If you are blessed with power, wealth etc, spirituality is to refrain from squandering the fortunes. https://twitter.com/OnEternalTruths/status/1669217660985303041

Trying to find a meaning in everything takes away the purpose of doing anything. The act of finding a meaning is an intellectual endeavor. It presumes the capability of intellect to grasp the reality in its entirety. Such a presumption is incorrect and thus results in failure. Approaching meaning as an intellectual endeavor results in disappointment. The inability to find meaning in conflated with lack of meaning, thus depriving oneself from the motivation to act. There is no purpose without motivation leaving one depressed, miserable, with no way out.

Stagnation is cyclic process of thinking, acting, discarding feedback and falling back to the same think, act, loop. Eternal circling at the round about. If you are stuck in life, relationships or any other thing for that matter, know that you need to take an exit. https://twitter.com/OnEternalTruths/status/1667042114113290240

Avoiding failure for the fear of being made the base of all jokes is how you turn yourself into a joke. It is better to be a joker than to be a part of laughing crowd. At least one of them is trying.

One must refrain from belonging to a bubble. Spend time with the rich, you will be out of touch with the realities of the poor. Spend time with the arrogant, you will forget compassion. Spend time with the poor, you will never learn to create wealth. https://twitter.com/OnEternalTruths/status/1666352504869666816

A man with a towering personality, who has himself under check, ambitious, efficient and sorted is often let down by his own. It is as though the loved ones feel dwarfed by his presence, unable to meet the standards, causing resentment leading to an undesirable behaviour. It is rare to see family support such a man and further enhance the quality of his life through their own conduct. For it entails higher levels of self awareness and discipline in addition to the sacrifice one needs to make in order to allow a man to flourish.

No amount of wealth will bring you peace if you stagnate intellectually. No amount of knowledge will bring you peace if you stagnate economically. The only solution is intellectual and economic growth - slow for some, quick for others. Wisdom is then to refrain from comparison.

Writing about every experience in life is how you never allow the insights to distill from experiences. One must allow the experience to marinate from which useful insights could emerge. Such a writing is useful otherwise it's just words which carry no strength.

Weak people expect respect from people who don't respect them, get resentful about it and take it out on people who do respect them. In the process, they destroy their own reputation, wonder why the world is bad and further get resentful about it. Toxic and vicious. https://twitter.com/OnEternalTruths/status/1663725078457073664

Find yourself a work environment which is fast paced. Fast paced enough to not allow time for excessive thinking and self doubt. All that matters is execution. The practice of taking actions to figure things out.

Retracting into a shell and wallowing in the negativity, because you were treated bad by the world is the worst way of dealing with the unfortunate situation. It's a tacit admission that you're unable to create a positive environment and be a positive influence on the world. https://twitter.com/OnEternalTruths/status/1663332630199250945
