“Knowing others is intelligence; knowing yourself is true wisdom. Mastering others is strength, mastering yourself is true power.”
—Lao-Tzu

THE BALANCE

We are born. We will die one day. There will be a reason for the death of every individual on this earth, such as may be by accident, disease, suicide, or because of aging.

But what is the reason for our birth? 

We are born to our parents. We may have siblings. We are related to them. Our parents may have siblings, we are related to them. We are related to our grandparents. Our relations are formed immediately after our birth. In a way, they are prearranged.

thyself 3While we grow, we make friends. We will be entering into the new world. Every other individual will have their own thinking. We should be able to understand others from the core to be in good relation with them. This needs a lot of observation. The process of knowing others is a continuous process throughout our life.

The Greatest Salesman in the World – Og Mandino

“Failure will never overtake me if my determination to succeed is strong enough”

One of the interesting things about this very short book is how long it takes to read.

I believe the answers to most of your questions about how to be “successful” lie within this magical little parable, but you need to read it properly to truly benefit from its wisdom. This requires commitment, and the patience to read the book in the prescribed form, resisting the urge to jump ahead and finish it before time.

THE CHOICE

In the story there are ten scrolls, the first scroll is “Today I begin a new life” at this scroll I’ve found something that catch my attention, which was “Today my old skin has become as dust. I will walk tall among men and they will know me not, for today I am a new man, with a new life.” As what I’ve understand to this, it says that past can be a reason for having a new life, past itself is just a memories and lessons, these things will guide us to be a brand new one with confident and trust.
