"This, too, shall pass,"

Dr. Martin Seligman of the University of Pennsylvania did an intensive research on what creates learned helplessness. In his book Learned Optimism he reports on three specific patterns of beliefs that cause us to feel helpless and can destroy virtually every aspect of our lives. He calls these three categories permanence, pervasiveness, and personal.

Many of our country's greatest achievers have succeeded in spite of running into huge problems and barriers. The difference between them and those who give up revolves around their beliefs about the permanence, or lack thereof, of their problems.

Achievers rarely, if ever, see a problem as permanent, while those who fail, see even the smallest problems as permanent. Once you adopt the belief that there's nothing you can do to change something, simply because nothing you've done up until now has changed it, you start to take a pernicious poison into your system. No matter what happens in your life, you've got to be able to believe, "This, too, shall pass," and that if you keep persisting, you'll find a way.

Too Much Of Anything in Life is Not Good.... For You...

Excess of anything is bad. Too much love is not good, too much money is not good, too much care is not useful, and too much confidence is also not productive. Most people will agree that anything in excess is harmful in its own way. Water is required for a ship to sail and the ship cannot sail without water, but excess water when it fills the ship may sink it. The water has to remain below the ship, should not come over it. Similarly, if one is in love, it should be in moderation, otherwise, love becomes poison, life-threatening. Take the love story of Romeo Juliet, Heer Ranjha, Laila Majnu, or from any culture, it is excessive love that has killed many lovers. A mother who cares too much for her child spoils her. Those kids who are pampered by parents beyond need turn out to be weaker and less sociable than others who were given the opportunity to grow independently. While a child will need attention and care, too much of them is a spoiler. Better to understand that every ...
