Food For Thoughts

Dear Readers... In your everyday life, you will often see that where some people are very humble in spite of being successful and powerful. At the same time, there are also some people who are proud of their power or ability.  1. It is natural to have some degree of pride in one's successes or abilities and it is also good from the point of view of psychology; But when this pride starts becoming uncontrolled and unreasonable, it takes the form of pride or arrogance and the personality is covered like a stain. It is very important to explain to such a person that being arrogant or boasting is basically a kind of stupidity that is better to avoid. 2. The psychology of an arrogant person is egocentric. He places himself at the center of the universe and interprets everything else from his point of view. The feeling of 'I' becomes its permanent feeling.  Encouraged by his small successes, he believes that this world is running because of him.  It is important to keep a lit...

As a child, I had heard someone say or maybe read somewhere that 'you know what you know, you don't know what you don't know. This childhood thing has made such a home in my mind that I have lost my faith in such things as " In the end, the truth does come out"  or  "the lie has no feet" . Everything seems suspicious to me. 1. For example...  (I) If someone says that Potassium Cyanide is the most dangerous poison in the world and death is caused by keeping it in the mouth, then the question arises in the mind that then how did it become the most dangerous poison in the world? This became the most luxurious poison.  (II) Somebody says that Switzerland is the most beautiful country in the world, then I would say that Switzerland is the most beautiful country in the world because their cameras and photography techniques are very advanced, otherwise, our Kashmir is also no less beautiful than anywhere, Just our boys have grabbed guns instead of cameras. 2....

You will often meet people who are extremely vocal in their expressions. They always have a limitless stock of things. In any conversation, they listen less and talk more. They do not feel any hesitation in expressing their opinion on any issue. Usually, such people are kept in the category of smart people and most people want that they should also have a fearless and assertive personalities like them. On the other hand, you must have also seen some people who are generally silent. On the issue on which the outspoken persons appear to be fighting among themselves, these persons remain very calm even on those issues. The general belief is that people who remain silent have a suppressed personality and often no one wants to allow themselves to be included in this category. Most parents teach their children to be assertive from childhood and if a child remains calm then it becomes a cause of worry for his/her family. There will also be some of you readers who generally prefer to remain si...

You will often see that some people are filled with strange confidence in their thoughts and behavior. There is a feeling in their mind that whatever they think or do is necessarily right. They do not see any conflict between any two of their thoughts or behaviors. On the other hand, you must have also seen some people who do not seem confident about any of their ideas. There are conflicts in their different views about which they feel stressed. Such gaps also exist in their various behaviors.  1. From the conversation so far, you must have felt that the people of the  first class  are better and successful than the people of the second class, but the truth is the opposite. The second-class people are undoubtedly much better. There can be only two types of people of the first-class - one who has not yet understood the complexities of life, and secondly, those who live the complexities of life but who have never tried to look honestly within themselves. The truth is that ...

The great philosopher  Aristotle  has said that  "I consider the one who suppresses his desires more courageous than the one who is victorious over the enemy." His idea is of visionary importance. Undoubtedly, there is an infinite flow of desires in the mind of human. They are capable of fulfilling some of these and fulfill some of them, but the fulfillment of many remains either incomplete or they become unable to make efforts for them. It is worth considering whether desire should be considered an enemy or a friend. In this perspective there is a need to understand the origin of desire. Desire is an emotion that can be created in one's mind towards a particular thing, person etc. For example the primary desire of a beggar would be to satisfy his hunger whereas the primary desire of a corrupt official would be to prove his selfishness. 1. So there are different dimensions of desire. Which of these dimensions is logically correct and which is wrong, it also largely depen...

1. It was the winter of 1990; A 20-years old Sri-Lankan youth was ready to make his debut against India in national cricket after batting with a bang in first class cricket. But, what is this? He got out at zero in both the innings and was dropped from the team by the selectors. After this he went straight to the nets and sweated day and night. He got the next chance after a full 21 months but the result was not favorable this time also. This time also he could score only 1 run by combining both the innings. After remaining out of the team for 17 months again, he got the next chance and once again he got out at zero in both the innings. After such a situation, the patience of anyone would have answered; Anyone would surrender; But the greatness of great people lies in not doubting their journey. Through constant struggle and belief in himself, he scales the toughest paths. The batsman was once again selected in the national team after next 3 years of continuous struggle and after tha...

Have you ever noticed that most of the values ​​you were taught as a child teach you to be 'submissive', 'agree' and 'acceptable'; not to 'disagree' or 'rebel'? From parents to teachers, everyone has taught us that we should respect our elders and must obey their every command. While writing applications in schools, we have been writing 'Your obedient disciple' before our name at the end.  It can also be easily seen that the children who quietly and faithfully obey everything from the parents at home and the teachers in the school, are considered to be the best children. This process of socialization gradually makes us a comfortable and cultivated part of the society. It is also true that due to the prevalence of such values, tensions and conflicts in the society remain under control to a great extent. But like every truth, there is another aspect to it which needs to be taken into account. That is, the process of learning such values ​...

It is believed that while animals and birds do not have the ability to reason, the uniqueness of human lies in their rationality. The general meaning of   'Rationality'   or 'Reasoning' is - Analytical power; Power to differentiate between right and wrong; The power to make right decisions and the Power to prove one's decisions. However, today we cannot say with certainty that reasoning is limited to man only because in some animals and birds (such as monkeys, chimpanzees, etc.), a less developed form of reasoning has been observed.  Computers have also left humans miles behind in terms of reasoning ability. In spite of all these facts, it is true that rationality plays a big role in our practical public life.   Whenever two people do not agree on an issue, they want to influence each other with their own arguments. This mentality is hidden at the root of 'debate'. Debates are essential characteristics of a living and progressing society.  Walter Bagehot ...

We all want that we get success in every struggle of life. Whatever dreams we dream, may come true in a jiffy. May we have the power to bend the world at our feet, immense wealth and high social status. The truth is that our hunger is more than that. We want that we should not be defeated in any battle of life and everyone who challenges us should be defeated by us.   If you look carefully, this hunger to win has  both advantages and disadvantages, although people's attention often goes to its advantages. This is the reason why our parents and teachers want to fill this hunger in us since childhood because they feel that due to this 'killer instinct' a person can reach the peak level of success. That's why they tell 'false and true' stories of  Alexander The Great , Napoleon and Prithviraj Chauhan to the children. They instill in the children the rites of reaching and staying at the top position since childhood.   But in parallel to glorifying this hunge...

You must have seen that some people do any work with full confidence. If you give them any challenge, they will happily accept it. They do not panic even in the most difficult situations. Such people are proud of the whole time.  Some people even say that the history of the world is nothing but the story of a handful of people who believed in themselves.  On the other hand, you may also have come across people who always seem to be suffering from a lack of self-confidence. They want that they should always follow the well-designed paths and there should be no place of any kind of risk in their life. The names of such people are not recorded in history. No one wants his personality to be such a devoid of self-confident. In fact, self-confidence is related to the concept of 'self'. The concept of 'self'  is an important topic of ' Psychology' , which simply means what is the opinion of a person about himself? It is a simple rule that if a person's opinion abou...
