Happily Ever After Series - Stop Making Resolutions






Hey Guys!!!

Every year before the arrival of the new year, unconsciously we have a tendency to make resolutions or if we are young, we are asked to make resolutions. And we try to make sure that we follow it, but it's a rarity that we are able to fulfill it till the very end.

Have you ever wondered why can't we keep our resolutions? Well!! Let's check why.

When we break promises to others, we feel bad about it. But we don't even regret breaking the resolution or the promise we made. Yeah.. yeah... I know... we have 1001 reasons. In reality, there is only one reason - We don't VALUE or LOVE or RESPECT our SELF. You don't believe it? Let me explain.


Let's check the dialogue we have with our self before breaking the resolution, I will give mine. "Meena, I think we need to break this resolution next time, we will do it much more strongly. I promise I will keep it till the year end, but for this once, I have no choice.. I need to break it.. I really can't do it.. you know the situation...." This dialogue goes on and on and after that the decision is made and after a deep breath  KRACK....The CLEAN  BREAK. The resolution is broken. 

If it was the dialogue of that special person, what would be your first reaction? He doesn't value me. He doesn't love me. he doesn't care for me, right? If you feel like that when others speak like that to you, then shouldn't you feel the same when you do it to your SELF? - Remember, whoever is there with you, around you. There is one person, who is always with you in both good and bad times. Who knows every minute secrets, fears, likes, dislikes, etc. who would never ever abandon you. You might wonder who is it. It is the inner you. The real you. Your SELF. It's time to see it.


So what should we do?

Don't give a reason to break the resolution. How?

First Step :- From now on, don't make any resolutions or promises to  the self. Live as you wish. At least when we are on our death bed we can say "I didn't break any promises to my Self. Phew!!!"


You might think, "Living as you wish is Easy". Truthfully, Not Really!!! 


The Universe that we live in is based on some basic principles, one of them is, "For your every thought, word or action, there is a reaction or consequence returning to you." 

Luke 6:38 :- Give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.”


So you will have to live expecting that you will receive a reaction for whatever you think, say and do. 

Decide wisely. No one can make choices for you. The decision is all yours. Live Happily Ever After.....

Good Luck!!!

Meena
