Anything can be a teacher

    The only real courage is to be yourself.

    To become a blacksmith, you need to forge.

    Courage, will, knowledge and silence are the assets and weapons of those who follow the path of improvement.

    When the disciples' ears are ready to hear, lips appear ready to fill them with wisdom.

    The mouth of wisdom is open only to the ears of understanding.

    Books give knowledge, but they cannot tell everything. First seek wisdom from the scriptures, and then seek Supreme guidance.

    The soul is a prisoner of its ignorance. She is chained by the chains of ignorance to an existence in which she cannot control her destiny. The purpose of every virtue is to eliminate one such chain.

    Those who gave you your body endowed it with weakness. But EVERYTHING that gave you a soul armed you with determination. Act decisively and you will be wise. Be wise and you will find happiness.

    The greatest treasures given to man are judgment and will. Happy is he who knows how to use them.

    Anything can be a teacher.

    The "I" chooses the "I"'s method of teaching.

    Giving up freedom of thought may mean losing the last opportunity to understand the laws of the Universe.

    True knowledge comes from the highest path, which leads to the eternal Fire. Delusion, defeat and death arise when a person follows the lower path of earthly attachments.

    Wisdom is the child of learning; Truth is the child of wisdom and love.

    Death occurs when the purpose of life is achieved; death shows what the meaning of life is.

    When you meet an arguer who is inferior to you, do not try to crush him with the force of your arguments. He is weak and will give himself away. Don't respond to evil speeches. Don't indulge your blind passion to win at any cost. You will defeat him by the fact that those present will agree with you.

    True wisdom is far from stupidity. A wise man often doubts and changes his mind. A fool is stubborn and stands his ground, knowing everything except his ignorance.

    Only one part of the soul penetrates into the earthly chain of time, while the other remains in timelessness.

    Avoid talking to many people about your knowledge. Don’t keep it selfishly for yourself, but don’t expose it to the ridicule of the crowd. Close person will understand the truth of your words. The distant one will never be your friend.

    May these words remain in the casket of your body and may they keep your tongue from idle talk.

    Be careful not to misunderstand the teaching.

    The spirit is life, and the body is needed in order to live.

About friendship

A true friend is known in misfortune. - Aesop

My friend is the one to whom I can tell everything. - V.G. Belinsky

As rare as true love is, true friendship is even rarer. - La Rochefoucauld

Affection can do without reciprocity, but friendship never can. - J. Rousseau

Friedrich Nietzsche

  • A woman is considered thoughtful, why?
    Because they can’t find out the reasons for her actions. The reason for her actions never lies on the surface.

    The same affects in men and women differ in tempo; That’s why a man and a woman never stop misunderstanding each other.

    Everyone carries within himself the image of a woman, received from his mother; this determines whether a person will honor women in general, or despise them, or, in general, treat them with indifference.

    If spouses did not live together, good marriages would occur more often.

    A lot of short madness - you call it love. And your marriage, like one long folly, puts an end to many short follies.

    Your love for your wife and your wife's love for her husband - ah, if only it could be pity for the suffering hidden gods! But almost always two animals guess each other.

    And even yours best love there is only an enthusiastic symbol and a painful ardor. Love is a torch that should shine for you on higher paths.

    A little good food can often make the difference between whether we look at the future with hope or despondency. This is true even in the most sublime and spiritual realms of man.

    Sometimes sensuality overtakes love, the root of love remains weak, unrooted, and it is not difficult to pull it out.

    We praise or blame, depending on whether one or the other gives us a greater opportunity to discover the brilliance of our mind.

Each person is an individual with different parameters, which, like a computer filling, can perform various operations in different times. A person is certainly not a computer, he is much cooler, even if it is the most modern computer.

Each person contains a certain grain, this is called the grain of truth; if a person looks after and cherishes the grain within himself, then an excellent harvest will grow that will delight him!

You understand that grain is our soul, in order to feel the soul, you need to have some kind of supersensible abilities.

Another example - A person produces a breed every day, leaving only gems. If, of course, he knows what precious stones look like, but if he only sorts through ore, skipping diamonds and other precious stones, believing that they are just stones, then this person has problems in life.

Life is such a thing, it is like a man who shovels ore to find diamonds! What are diamonds? This is the motivation that gives us to act in this world, but the fuses of motivation are constantly melting, we need to refuel our motivation in order to continue to act effectively. Where does motivation come from? The cornerstone is information, correct information is like a compressed spring, if we accept it correctly, the spring opens up and shoots exactly at the target and we reach the target very quickly. If we treat motivation incorrectly, then why, then the spring shoots into the forehead. Why is this happening? Because our inner intention is the basis for why we act, what we want to get, and whether our motivated actions will harm others!

In this article I have collected the most motivational quotes and statuses, as they say, of all times and peoples. But of course, it’s up to you to choose what will hook you most. In the meantime, let's get comfortable, put on a very smart face, turn off all means of communication and just enjoy the wisdom of poets, artists and just plumbers!

A person gets what he chooses. This is reality, whether you like it or not.

It's time to shake bad thoughts out of your head.

If you are looking for the bad, you will definitely find it, and you will not notice anything good. Therefore, if all your life you wait and prepare for the worst, it will definitely happen, and you will not be disappointed in your fears and concerns, finding more and more confirmation for them. But if you hope and prepare for the best, you will not attract bad things into your life, but simply risk being disappointed sometimes - life is impossible without disappointments.

Expecting the worst, you get it, missing out on all the good things in life that actually exist in it. And vice versa, you can acquire such fortitude, thanks to which in any stressful, critical situation in life, you will see its positive sides.

Circumstances don't matter. A diamond thrown into the dirt does not cease to be a diamond.

Don't trust the circumstances. Believe in your dream.

Buddha described three types of laziness. The first is the laziness that we all know about. When we have no desire to do anything. The second is laziness, an incorrect feeling of oneself - laziness of thinking. “I will never do anything in life”, “I can’t do anything, it’s not worth trying.” The third is constant preoccupation with unimportant matters. We always have the opportunity to fill the vacuum of our time by keeping ourselves “busy.” But, usually, this is just a way to avoid meeting yourself.

The moment you squeeze your hand tightly, sand will begin to pour out through your fingers. This way you can retain some sand, but most of it will spill out. In relationships it’s exactly the same. Treat the other person and their freedom with care and respect, remaining close. But if you squeeze too tightly and with a claim to possess another person, the relationship will deteriorate and fall apart.

You can't beat someone who doesn't give up.

No illusions - no disappointments. You need to be hungry to appreciate food, experience cold to understand the benefits of warmth, and be a child to see the value of parents.

You need to be able to forgive. Many people believe that forgiveness is a sign of weakness. But the words “I forgive you” do not mean at all - “I’m too soft a person, so I can’t be offended and you can continue to ruin my life, I won’t say a single word to you,” they mean “I won’t let the past spoil my future and the present, so I forgive you and let go of all grievances.”

What can bring you self-esteem and satisfaction? There are many ways to improve yourself. You can set yourself a goal to improve in one or more aspects. You know better what will bring satisfaction. Then a taste for life will appear, and everything else will work out automatically.

♦ If a person close to you has pain in his heart and emptiness in his soul...

People tend to make mistakes
People tend to hurt themselves
Bare heart on a bare stone,
And then the wound remains -
A heavy scar remains
And not a bit of love. Not a gram.
A man freezes in silence
People are starting to run away
And icy wolf melancholy
In the middle of the night he knocks.
He won't fall asleep again until dawn,
He will crumple cigarettes in his fingers.
There's no point in waiting for an answer
To made up questions.
He won't say a word now
He is all in distant thoughts somewhere.
Don't judge him harshly
Don't blame him for this.
Don’t be overly invigorated in front of him,
Don't teach him patience -
All examples you know
They will be forgotten, unfortunately.
He went deaf from extreme pain,
From furry animal misfortune.
He is sad - gray with salt -
I met you on a long road.
He's frozen. Forever? Who knows!
And there seems to be no way out
But one day he too will thaw,
As nature told him.
Gradually, changing colors,
Imperceptibly changing rhythms,
From the cold season of January
In the blue weather of May.
You see - snakes change their skin,
You see, the bird changes its feathers.
It's happiness that pain can't
It always nests in a person.
He will wake up early one day
Knead the silence like dough.
Where the wound used to hurt,
It will just be a smooth place.
And then through the city to summer,
Running along the main street,
The man will smile at the light
And hug him like an equal. (Sergey Ostrovoy)

And finally, a few more good thoughts, quotes, advice about life and about life:

♦ “The essence of this lifestyle is not to build endless imaginary alternative scenarios of events happening to us and not to produce endless “could have been...”, “if only it was”, “it’s a pity that it’s not” and “it would be more correct” “Instead, we should try to get maximum pleasure from what we have here and now.” Writer Vladimir Yakovlev

♦ “When you feel bad, find someone who is even worse and help him. You will feel better.” How simple it sounds! But why go and help someone if I feel bad?
My wife left me, my children forgot, I was kicked out of work - my life is falling apart! Everything is bad. But if you find a person who needs your help, if he is worse off than you, your adversity will move aside. By dealing with the pain and problems of another person, you switch and forget about your difficulties and adversities.
Remember: negative emotions accumulate, positive ones do not. Helping someone else gives you positive emotions. You helped, you see: your help was needed. You were able to, you took part in someone else's fate. When you feel bad, find someone who is even worse and help him - you will feel better.

♦ "Live in the present and use it to shape your future to your liking. If you don't change now, the future won't get better. If you are passive and inactive, who will help you? Ultimately, everything depends on you. If circumstances do not spoil you, do not give up, but plan, plan and plan again. Do everything in your power, and success will come to you - to everyone, to everyone who wants it. And yet, do not delay. for tomorrow what you can do today. God help you."

♦ “The past is already over, this thought must be accepted. There is only the present and also the future, which we are creating now. Therefore, the past must be understood, accepted and forgiven. Let go of your past from the present back to the past, that’s where it belongs.” Psychologist Andrey Kurpatov (Bestseller “Happy for at will")

♦ “Just retire and list everything you have, what you believe, remember everyone you loved and love. And remember that above your head there is always a huge endless sky and the sun, however, sometimes it is hidden from us by clouds, but it’s temporary, and it’s still there, even if it’s not visible now. Think about what you have, and then you will understand what you need.” Psychologist Andrei Kurpatov (Bestseller “Happy of my own free will”)

♦ “Perhaps you demand from life that your desires be fulfilled? But these demands are also absurd, we can only rely on ourselves and do what depends on us, and the result is always a confluence of many circumstances, the demands here are meaningless. And finally , the third area where your demands can lead to unnecessary problems: maybe you are very demanding of yourself? You need to rely on yourself, not demand" Psychologist Andrei Kurpatov (Bestseller “Happy of my own free will”)

♦ "Remember - fear loves those who look into the future, instead of relying on the present. Fear loves those who feed on dreams, instead of doing what he can do under the conditions that exist at the moment. So Don’t wait for the situation to change, then you will no longer be able to do what you can do now. If you constantly behave this way, then you will never, I emphasize, never really do anything!” Psychologist Andrey Kurpatov

♦ "We are all human, and bad things happen to people. When something bad happens to you, it only proves that you are alive, because as long as you live, bad things will happen to you. Stop thinking that you are the chosen one, with whom nothing bad can happen. Such people do not exist, and even if they existed, who would want to communicate with them? What would you talk about with them? And how wonderful is everything in their life? Wouldn't you like to hit them?"

♦ “Learn to minimize rather than exaggerate your problems. For our psyche, which itself does not understand anything about this matter, it is better to hear that the problem is trivial than gigantic. And instead of thinking: “My life has no meaning,” think, that your problems are deprived of it. If we can so easily devalue it. own life, then why don’t we redirect our accusatory sting and devalue the problems that devalue our lives?..”

♦ “Not only does life affect you, but you also affect life. So consider that you were just dealt bad cards. It happens. Take the cards, shuffle them and deal them to yourself. It is your responsibility. Don’t wait. Don’t whine. Good things don't just happen. You have to make them happen. Think about how to start living the way you always wanted. If there aren't many bad things happening in your life, then there's not much happening at all." Larry Winget ("Stop whining, keep your head up!")

♦ “This is a variant of the famous formula that the doctor Emile Coue developed for his patients: “EVERY DAY, ALWAYS AND IN EVERYTHING, MY THINGS ARE GOING BETTER AND BETTER.” Repeat this phrase out loud fifty times in the morning and evening, and throughout the day - as much as you can. The more often you repeat it, the stronger its influence on you will be." Mark Fisher ("The Millionaire's Secret")

♦ “Never forget that life is an opportunity. This thesis may seem like a philosophical delight, but it really is. When one thing doesn’t work out for us, something else will definitely work out. As the song sang, “I’m unlucky in death, will be lucky in love.” On all fronts, without exception, life never loses. And wisdom consists in always being on the front on which the troops are going on the offensive. If you’re chronically unlucky with something, do something else. You won’t notice how life gets better on the front you left!” Psychologist Andrey Kurpatov (“5 saving steps from depression”)

♦ Don't forget about family. Parents - the only people who love you unconditionally, simply because you exist. Communicate with them more often - it will not only give you energy for life and work. When dear people leave this world, they will live in your memories. Let there be more of these memories.

♦ Complaining about life is a waste of time. Build a conversation constructively, talk about something interesting. Your problems are not interesting to others, but to get useful information during a conversation is much more valuable than meager words of sympathy.

♦ There is enough grief in the world; don't exaggerate it. If you can, BE KIND, and you can't, or are going through a hard time, then at least try not to be a complete jerk.

♦ Life is an unknown road, immeasurable length. Some travelers take a long time, while others take a short time. God only knows the length of the road, sending us on our worldly journey, and the person walking does not know the duration of his earthly life.

♦ Remember - everything passes and is constantly changing. What seems important now may turn out to be meaningless after a while. Stop focusing on problems, do something useful.

♦ “You can wait until things calm down. When the kids get older, work becomes calmer, the economy picks up, the weather gets better, your back stops hurting...
The fact is that people who are different from you and me never wait for the time to come. They know this will never happen.
Instead, they take risks and begin to act, even when they have no sleep, they have no money, they are hungry, their house is not cleaned, and it is snowing in the yard. Whenever this happens. Because the time comes every day." Seth Godin

♦ Eventually computers break, people die, relationships fail... The best thing we can do is take a deep breath and reboot.

No matter how bad life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at. As long as there is life, there is hope." Stephen Hawking (brilliant physicist)
