10 Simple Introspective Inquiries that can Improve Your Life in Leaps
and Bounds
A contented
life is in fact a blessing and though it seems to be a difficult proposition,
it is not that tough to achieve the desired state in your life. In order
to achieve the desired goal of a contented life you have to keep on introspecting
yourself on an ongoing basis till you make it as your secondary nature
and be able to apply on things whatever you do or plan.
You are bound to be bombarded with numerous problems in your daily life
and in such circumstances your prime aim should be on the lines of tackling
them in a fit manner and carry on with your living without getting much
affected by the success or failure of such actions. Now what you see below
is few age-old wisdom that has seen many of our forefathers living a peaceful
life without any break.
1. What
You want in real sense?
This is one
of the profound questions that makes its rounds for ages. In your life
you have many aspirations but have little or no time to pursue to achieve
those aspirations. To start with from today, make it a point to aspire
for small achievable goals and start working towards achieving it slowly.
Your effort is the key here irrespective of the level or the enormity
of your aspirations.
2. Should
You really change?
You can see
today’s teenagers and younger generations behaving quite contrast
to the behaviour that were prevalent during the seventies. Identity crisis
has taken over almost all the kids today and they all like to show off
their dancing talents or other unique abilities that are otherwise useless
in anyone’s life. First decide what is good for you and for the society;
ask few questions about the worthiness of your mind’s aspirations
and decide the best among them. For example, acne or pimples are the part
and parcel of any teenaged person’s life and hence it is a waste
of time to brood over it and waste your otherwise meaningful life’s
moments.
3. Enquire
what is the brighter side of anything
You are in
a society today that makes you to think ephemeral things as constant and
as the life’s goal; but in reality such things never lead you any
where and probably you will back in the same spot after a while. Hence
enquire and try to get to know the achievable benefits for any of the
tasks that you do or plan to carry out in the near future.
4. Are
you comfortable with what you are doing?
Once you
put your mind to see what is happening then it will be easy for you to
decide the best that can suit you and your tastes. Take a minute to decide
on the things that might or rather might not bring in the desired satisfaction
and a small thought will certainly guide you in the right direction and
you may not need to repent in future for your decisions made.
5. Have
you done enough for yourself?
Do you have
a regular or nagging feelings that you have not done things the way you
wanted or the much to your heart’s content? Discontentment is a slow
poison that can prove to be dangerous and can rob your life’s peaceful
and precious moments surreptitiously. Always try to do small things one
at a time and derive the necessary benefits fully so as to satisfy your
ever-hungry mind.
6. Are
you happy the way you are today?
The art of
looking at things in its true perspective needs practice and patience.
Today you may be a wonderful mom or father to your kids, but the same
may take a worst beating on some other day when you desist your kids from
doing some action or refuse to let them partake their favorite ice creams
in excess quantity. Have a level head at the praise and brickbats you
receive and over a period of time you will be adept at handling any difficult
situations with ease and without hurting your emotions.
7. Are
you appealing to the your opposite sex?
It is one
of the difficult questions that many people will say both yes and no for
their answer. Whatever may be the situation, try to be neat and dress
to please yourself first and to please others. If you like others’
suggestion on your hair style, there is no harm in giving it a try and
see yourself in a mirror and by this way you also start giving importance
to others’ opinions and respect their words.
8. How
much is too much?
Again this
is one of the difficult propositions to decide, be it in any matter such
as money, articles, dress, food, etc., and the best possible answer could
be varying with various persons. At the first instance, do an introspection
and analyze whether what you are doing is really sufficient to reach the
goal. If not, you can either increase your efforts or alter your goal
to an achievable level.
9. How
you get motivated?
How motivated
are you? Again a yet another difficult question that people will answer
both affirmative and negative. Do introspection and decide or arrive at
the factors that motivate you the most. It may even be a cup of ice cream
or even a small appreciative smile. Try and work towards achieving your
goal in life with all the motivating factors at hand.
10. What
Really Makes You get charged?
Analyze and
find out what really makes you tick? Again as said earlier, it needs your
great introspection ability to know what you really want or would like
to be in future. Once decided and started off, never give up and compromise
on things. Let the firm conviction be your driving force to achieve things
that you have set your mind and body to and never cease to rest till you
achieve the goal.
