Day 341 Value of Creativity

 Day 341 

วันที่ 7 ธันวาคม เป็นวันที่ 341 ของปี

Value : Creativity

"To be creative is to bring newness at each step."

Contemplation

Sometimes we have a tendency to get bored with what we are doing.  Even when working toward a goal, and moving continuously toward it, we are not satisfied.  The days seem to drag without bringing any real joy.  When this happens, we may question what are doing, or even be tempted to give up.

Application

I need to be creative and try to bring something new to what I am doing every day.  Even a small change can make a big difference.  When I think creatively, I become more enthusiastic about what I am doing, and then there will always be something interesting to look forward to.

Day 340 Value of Positivity

 

Day 340

วันที่ 6 ธันวาคม เป็นวันที่ 340 ของปี

Value : Positivity

"To see the unique qualities in everyone is to become special."

Contemplation

Although someone may have many positive qualities, as soon as we notice one negative quality in them we find it difficult to see anything else.  What we see in someone affects how we feel about them, and our relationships can suffer because of this.

Application

It is natural to be colored or influenced by what I see.  But I have the power within me to change my perception.  When I choose to focus on the positive, I gradually forget about other people's flaws.  As I learn to appreciate them for their gifts and virtues, out relationship also becomes stronger.

Day 339 Value of Patience

Day 339

วันที่ 5 ธันวาคม เป็นวันที่ 339 ของปี

Value : Patience

"The one who is patient experiences constant success."

Contemplation

We often expect things to happen quickly.  Even if we only put in a little effort we expect big results.  If we lack patience, we often jump to conclusions and react without understanding the situation.  When this happens, we are much less likely to succeed.

Application

I need to understand that the fruit of the seeds I sow will come in time.  This gives me the patience to wait without expecting results too fast.  Patience also helps me to remain calm in the most negative situations.  When I become patient I will experience success whatever the immediate result of my actions might be.

Day 338 Value of Purity

 

Day 338

วันที่ 4 ธันวาคม เป็นวันที่ 338 ของปี

Value : Purity

"To invoke the goodness within is to be pure."

Contemplation

Deep within ourselves, we have a lot of goodness.  When we are pure, we will find we are able to work with our inherent goodness.  Then nothing negative can prevent us from expressing it.  We become a clean mirror that allows others to see their own image of perfection.

Application

I need to remind myself that when I work on my inner purity I can help people get in touch with their inherent goodness, too.  When I encounter someone negative, it is my duty to work with them to help them experience their original goodness.  When I remind myself of this, I make myself a clean mirror.

Day 337 Value of Communication

 

Day 337

วันที่ 3 ธันวาคม เป็นวันที่ 337 ของปี

Value : Communication

"The language of thoughts is more powerful than the language of words."

Contemplation

When we have a misunderstanding with someone, we often talk a lot to try and explain our point of view.  But we have a tendency to become defensive when we feel threatened,  and often words only make the situation worse.  Rather than talking more, we need to learn to think better.

Application

I know that sometimes it is not my words that are important, but the thoughts behind them.  I may say little, but the feeling behind my words its so strong that it is easy for the other person to understand my intentions.  Powerful thoughts bring clarity to my communication with others, and help me develop my relationships.

Day 336 Value of Positivity

 

Day 336

วันที่ 2 ธันวาคม เป็นวันที่ 336 ของปี

Value : Positivity

"The vision of seeing specialties frees the mind from negativity."

Contemplation

Negativity is more easily noticed than positivity.  Whenever we see someone using some negative trait, all their specialties remain hidden and we get caught up with their negativity.  Our interactions with that person become tainted by negativity, and it become difficult to turn things around.

Application

I need to focus on seeing the positive in the people around me.  When someone does or says something negative, I need to make a special effort to see something good.  This helps me to keep myself free from negativity and makes my interaction with that person pleasant, rather than fraught with difficulties.  The other person is likely to respond positively toward me,  which in turn will help them leave their negativity behind.

Day 335 Value of Giving

 Day 335

วันที่ 1 ธันวาคม เป็นวันที่ 335 ของปี

Value : Giving

"To help others to grow is to enable ourselves to grow."

Contemplation

It is easy to raise our voices and complain when we encounter someone else's negativity.  This disturbs our own inner calm, and we become caught up with that negativity.  When thrown off-balance in this way, we are unable to give the other person the support he or she needs.

Application

When someone is doing something wrong I need to see what I can do to help that person.  There is surely something I can contribute toward the growth of each and every human being.  When I focus on how best is it to offer my help, I do not become caught up with negativity, and I can transform the situation into one that benefits us both.
