The Golden Rules
# Peace of Mind: If you
a re a t p e a c e w i t h
yourself, you are at
peace with the world.
Happiness is within, and
not outside you.
# Mind Matters: Everything in life boils down to
your Mind, the ultimate source of your Peace and
Happiness. It's all in the mind. You and your mind
will decide whether you are happy or not. All
weathers of life are not same, But if you decide,
They will be same.
# Perception: Your happiness
boils down to how you see the
world and people around you.
The way you perceive things
will decide your mood for the Day. The way you
choose your responses, instead of reactions.
# Contentment: Be content with what God has
offered you to live with. It is more than enough
compared to what you actually require.
Half Empty Half Filled
# Karma & responsibility: Be responsible for your action and do Karma. You only have choice to perform, results will be decided by almighty. Things may go in your favor or may not go. But don't give up. Keep trying and live your life the way you want to live.
Engage: Engage your mind with constructive & fruitful activities, to avoid negative thoughts & remain cheerful.
# Change is inevitable: Good or bad moments will come and go. It will not stay forever. Cherish the good moments and be strong during tough times.
# You have a choice: You always have a choice to responses of life. Choose Happiness, love & peace.
# Happiness always comes i n s m a l l p a c k a g e s : Happiness is not about possessing cars, homes, wealth. It always comes in small packages, making some one smile, helping someone, playing with kids, talking to elders, loving them respecting them. It can be a small bicycle ride or a 10 minute swim.
# Limited Expectations: Have l imited
expectations, because there is no end to rat race.
Take time to pause and enjoy what you already
possess. Do not leave any regret for tomorrow.
Fulfill your dreams today.
# Family: Give love and
time to your Family.
# Quality life: Go for Quality,
not Quantity. It doesn't
matter how many holidays
you went on. What really
matters is how well you have
enjoyed them. You can enjoy
your vacation even in your
beautiful home.
# Giving: If you want to receive something in life,
start giving. Give Love, Peace and Happiness to
others. They will be returned to you, in some form
or the other. Give surprises to people, and put a
smile on their face. They love surprises.
# Sharing: Share things that
you can. Share knowledge. It
will multiply. Give away things
that you do not need. Remove
clutter from your home, mind
and Life.
# Letting Go: Let go of things which you can not
hold on to, or things which are bothering you and
eating your mind. You will feel very relieved. It is
difficult, but try it.
# Forgive: Forgive yourself and others. Don't be
so serious about your life, 24 hours a day, 7 days a
week. Relax and have fun. Everything is
momentary. It will end, eventually.
# Improve : Person who disturbs you regularly, is
an immediate signal for you to improve the
situation with that person.
# Detachment: Do not get very attached to any
thing or person. If that thing does not exist
tomorrow, you should be able to survive without
it. Love them, like them, but only to an extent.

presence is not required or it's not worth it, from
any situation or from the life of any person.
# Humility: Always be humble and stick to your
roots.

count your blessings. There are people who are
less fortunate, then you in this world.
# Positive: Being positive throughout adversity is
the only option left with us. So please be positive.
It will take you away from distress and move you to
better direction.
# Living each Moment: Try to live each and every
moment of your life. Be present physically and
mentally, wherever you are and whatever activity
you are doing. Listen with all your attention, if you
are listening to someone. Focus 100%, if you are
performing a task. There will be good moments,
bad moments and also, at times, boring moments.
Just live through the experience. Life is short.
Make most of it.
# Flexibility: Always remain flexible under all
circumstances. If things do not go your way, don't
get frustrated. Be flexible and wise enough to
accept the sudden change and respond to it with a
calm mind.
# Go With the Flow: Go with the flow when
required. Not everything in life happens as per
your wish list. In the end everything will stabilize,
but until that time, have patience to go with the
flow and wait for your time to come.
