 Don’t Chase Happiness. Enjoy Your Life | Inspiring Story | Motivational Quotes

Don’t chase happiness. Enjoy your life:

An old man lived in the village. He was one of the most unfortunate people in the world. The whole village was tired of him.

He was always gloomy, he constantly complained, and was always in a bad mood.

The longer he lived, the more bile he was becoming, and the more poisonous were his words. People avoided him because his misfortune became contagious. It was even unnatural and insulting to be happy next to him.

He created the feeling of unhappiness in others.

But one day, when he turned eighty years old, an incredible thing happened. Instantly everyone started hearing the rumor:

“An Old Man is happy today, he doesn’t complain about anything, smiles, and even his face is freshened up.”

The whole village gathered together.

 The old man was asked: What happened to you?

“Nothing special. For eighty years I’ve been chasing happiness, and it was useless. And then I decided to live without happiness and just enjoy life. That’s why I’m happy now.” – An Old Man

Moral of the story: Don’t chase happiness. Enjoy your life.

Some Of The Best Quotes About Happiness:

• Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.

• Don’t promise when you’re happy. Don’t reply when you’re angry and don’t decide when you’re a dad.

• Remember happiness is a way of travel, not a destination.

• Happiness starts with you-not with your relationships, not with your job, not with your money, but with you.

• Life is so damn short. For sake, just do what makes you happy.

• You Will Never Have To Chase What Wants To Stay With You.

• The happiest people don’t have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything.

• Happiness is not a state to arrive at, but a manner of traveling.

• Happiness is letting go of what you think your life is supposed to look like and celebrating it for everything that it is.

• Happiness is a choice, not a result. Nothing will make you happy until you choose to be happy.

• Stop worrying about what can go wrong. And get excited about what can go right.

• Life is better when you’re laughing.

• Stop waiting for Friday, for summer, for someone to fall in love with you, for life. Happiness is achieved when you stop waiting for it and make the most of the moment you are in now.

• Two things prevent us from happiness; living in the past and observing others.

 Swami Vivekananda Quotes | Motivational Lines | Inspiration Quotes

• Know that every time you feel weak, you not only hurt yourself but also the cause. Infinite faith and strength are the only conditions of success.

• Be strong, my young friends; that is my advice to you. You will be nearer to Heaven through football than through the study of the Gita. These are bold words; but I have to say them, for I love you. I know where the shoe pinches.
  
• Fear is death, fear is sin, fear is hell, fear is unrighteousness, fear is wrong life. All the negative thoughts and ideas that are in the world have proceeded from this evil spirit of fear.
  
• We reap what we sow. We are the makers of our own fate. None else has the blame, none has the praise.
  
• All the powers in the universe are already ours. It is we who have put our hands before our eyes and cry that it is dark.
  
• He is an atheist who does not believe in himself. The old religions said that he was an atheist who did not believe in God. The new religion says that he is an atheist who does not believe in himself.

Swami Vivekananda Quotes | Motivational Video | Inspiring Quotes

• Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life - think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success, that is the way great spiritual giants are produced.

• No need for looking behind. FORWARD! We want infinite energy, infinite zeal, infinite courage, and infinite patience, then only will great things be achieved.

• Whatever you think, that you will be. If you think yourselves weak, weak you will be; if you think yourselves strong, strong you will be; if you think yourselves impure, impure you will be; if you think yourselves pure, pure you will be.

• Take courage and work on it. Patience and steady work — this is the only way. Go on; remember — patience and purity and courage and steady work. . . . So long as you are pure and true to your principles, you will never fail.

• The world is the great gymnasium where we come to make ourselves strong.

Swami Vivekananda Quotes | Motivational Video | Inspiring Quotes

• We are responsible for what we are, and whatever we wish ourselves to be, we have the power to make ourselves. If what we are now has been the result of our own past actions, it certainly follows that whatever we wish to be in the future can be produced by our present actions; so we have to know how to act.

• This is a great fact: strength is life, weakness is death. Strength is felicity, life eternal, immortal; weakness is constant strain and misery: weakness is death. 

• To succeed, you must have tremendous perseverance, tremendous will. 'I will drink the ocean', says the persevering soul, 'at my will mountains will crumble up.' Have that sort of energy, that sort of will, work hard, and you will reach the goal. 

• The remedy for weakness is not brooding over weakness, but thinking of strength.

• Truth can be stated in a thousand different ways, yet each one can be true.

• We are what our thoughts have made us; so take care about what you think. Words are secondary. Thoughts live; they travel far.

• To work with undaunted energy! What fear! Who is powerful enough to thwart you.

 "UNITED WE STAND, DIVIDED WE FALL" | Inspiring Story | Motivational Quotes

A Farmer And His Sons

Once a farmer had three grown-up sons. They always quarreled among themselves. Their father advised them to live in peace but it had no effect on them. He was worried about their future. One day the farmer fell seriously ill. He sent for his sons. He asked them to collect a handful of sticks which they did at once. He tied the sticks into a bundle.

Now, he asked them to break the bundle one by one. They tried hard to break it but none could. At last, the farmer untied the bundle and asked each of them to break each stick. They did so quite easily. Their father said, “My dear sons, you could not break the sticks as long as they remained tied together but you broke every single stick quite easily. They were strong in the bundle but became weak when separated from one another. Never forget that united we stand and divided we fall.”

This had a deep effect on the farmer’s sons. They gave up quarreling and began to live in peace.

Moral: United we stand and divided we fall.

 Swami Vivekananda Quotes | Motivational Lines| Inspiration Quotes | Part 1

Are great things ever done smoothly? Time, patience, and indomitable will must show. "Arise, awake, sleep no more; within each of you, there is the power to remove all wants and all miseries. Believe this, and that power will be manifested. Be brave and be sincere; then follow any path with devotion, and you must reach the Whole. Once lay hold of one link of the chain, and the whole chain must come by degrees. Be free; hope for nothing from anyone. I am sure if you look back upon your lives you will find that you were always vainly trying to get help from others which never came. Be not in despair; the way is very difficult, like walking on the edge of a razor; yet despair not, arise, awake, and find the ideal, the goal. Cowards only sin, brave men never, no, not even in mind. Death is better than a vegetating ignorant life; it is better to die on the battlefield than to live a life of defeat.

Swami Vivekananda Quotes | Motivational Video | Inspiration Quotes | Part 2

Say, "This misery that I am suffering is of my own doing, and that very thing proves that it will have to be undone by me alone."

Have faith in yourselves, and stand up on that faith and be strong; that is what we need.

Stand up and be strong! No fear. No superstition. Face the truth as it is! If death comes — that is the worst of our miseries — let it come! We are determined to die game.

Do not wait for anybody or anything. Do whatever you can. Build your hope on none.

Say, "I can do everything." "Even if poison of a snake is powerless if you can firmly deny it."

If you are really my children, you will fear nothing, stop at nothing. You will be like lions. We must rouse India and the whole world. No cowardice. I will take no nay. Do you understand?

Swami Vivekananda Quotes | Motivational Video | Inspiration Quotes | Part 3

Purity, patience, and perseverance overcome all obstacles. All great things must of necessity be slow. Do not figure out big plans at first, but, begin slowly, feel your ground and proceed up and up. Nightmares always begin pleasantly — only at the worst point [the] dream is broken — so death breaks [the] dream of life. "The earth is enjoyed by heroes"— this is the unfailing truth. Be a hero. Always say, "I have no fear". The man never dies, nor is he ever born; bodies die, but he never dies. My child, what I want is muscles of iron and nerves of steel, inside which dwells a mind of the same material as that of which the thunderbolt is made. Neither seek nor avoid; take what comes. It is the liberty to be affected by nothing. Do not merely endure; be unattached. Each work has to pass through these stages — ridicule, opposition, and then acceptance. Those who think ahead of their time are sure to be misunderstood.

It never pays to overreach yourself | A Motivational Quotes | Inspiring Short Story

 It never pays to overreach yourself | A Motivational Quotes | Inspiring Short Story

The Jester And The King - Short Story

Once upon a time, a king had a jester in his court. The king was so fond of him that the jester enjoyed every kind of liberty of speech. He did not even spare the lords and ministers. So much so that he began to ridicule even the king but no one could dare to complain against him. This made the jester bold and proud. He cared for none. One day while the king was holding a court and was busy in serious state affairs, the jester made fun of the king. Dead silence fell on the court. The king got highly offended and sentenced the jester to death. The jester bent down over his knees and begged for mercy but the king was so angry that he turned down his request. At last, when the jester pleaded for mercy, again and again, the king said, “Die you must but I grant you the freedom to choose the kind of death you like.” The clever jester at once used his ready wit and took good advantage of the concession saying, “Your Majesty! I choose to die of old age.” The king was impressed and forgave the jester with a warning for the future. Moral: It never pays to overreach yourself.

Some Of The Best "Overreach" Quotes

• "Fear is at the root of so many of the barriers that women face. Fear of not being liked. Fear of making the wrong choice. Fear of drawing negative attention. Fear of overreaching. Fear of being judged. Fear of failure. And the holy trinity of fear: the fear of being a bad mother/wife/daughter." ~ Sheryl Sandberg

• If We Are To Reach An Agreement, Management Has To Stop Overreaching.

• The greatest assassin of life is haste, the desire to reach things before the right time which means overreaching them -  Juan Ramon Jimenez

The Clever Cat And The Vain Fox

One day a cat and a fox happened to meet in a forest. The fox said to the cat, “Good morning, where are you off to? Let’s have a chat. It’s all safe here.” The cat stopped and greeted the fox and said, “Mr. Fox, I think it is not safe to stop here for long. I usually see hunters about here.” The fox replied, “Oh, never mind the hunters. I know some of the tricks to dodge the hunters. Do you also know any such a trick?” The cat said. “I only know how to climb a tree in times of danger.” The fox was vain and looked at the cat with contempt. He said, “Ah! Poor soul, Is that all? How can you escape death if your single trick fails? Shall I teach you some sure tricks?” Just then the cat saw a huntsman approaching with a pack of hounds. It said, “Look! There come the hounds. Goodbye.” It climbed up the nearest tree and cleverly saved her life. The hounds came upon the vain fox very soon. The fox ran for his life but the hounds overtook him before long and tore him to pieces.

 Look before you leap | A Motivational Quotes | Inspiring Short Story

The Tailor And The Elephant

A tailor ran a shop in a town. He was a good-natured jolly fellow. A man in the town had a pet elephant. The elephant went drinking at a pool out of the town daily. It passed by the tailor’s shop. The tailor gave him a bun every day. In course of time, they became good friends and were well pleased to meet each other. The tailor always waited for the elephant to come to him and the elephant was also there at the usual time. One day, the tailor had a dispute with one of his customers. He was feeling unhappy and cross. Meanwhile, the elephant arrived and put his trunk into his shop through the window to receive the friendly bun as usual. The tailor instead of giving a bun pricked its trunk with a needle. The elephant felt hurt at this but silently went his way to drink. The elephant quenched his thirst and then filled his trunk with dirty, muddy water. It came back quickly, but its trunk in, and emptied it. The whole shop looked as if it was plastered with mud. All the fancy dresses and rich wedding robes were mud-stained and badly spoiled. The tailor was sad but it was too late. Moral: It is well said, “Look before you leap.”
