5 strategies from meditation to manage stress, stay happy and be successful!

Follow the wisdom of the enlightened masters, encapsulated in the 5 strategies below, to create a happy and successful life –
  Accept ownership & responsibility over your life
Whatever you experience in your life and the way you feel and react towards it is a direct expression of who you are. At the deepest level, everything occurring in your life-experience is the result of your own desires, choices, actions and reactions. 
So, accept full responsibility and control of your life: both of what your life is now, and what you want it to be.

   Refuse to have short-term vision
Adopt strategies and actions that create long term growth, and drop any thought or action that promises short term gratification.
Keeping a long term view eases stress and tension.

   Stretch your comfort zone
Humans and organisations are conditioned to seek security and safety, but life often provides the opposite to ensure our growth. So do more than you think you can; take the step you think you can’t.
Dare to confront security and comfort as primary motivations. Instead, dare something worthy. Greatness lies on the other side of the comfort zone.

   Be action-oriented
Results come from actions, not intentions.
Remember that the best strategy in the world won’t bring results unless you translate it into effective action. Excessive thinking leads to stress, and action often releases it.
To learn how to swim, you must get wet. Believe in action – it’s what changes life and the future.

  Choose to be optimistic
You always have two choices in every situation – either curse the darkness, or light a candle.  Choose the more positive attitude, always, regardless of the situation.  It comes at the same expense as the negative choice but with extremely different consequences. One produces stress and the other releases it. Remember that stress arises out of the way you think.

You can always glimpse the positive option, in every moment; you simply have to remind yourself to look in the right direction.
Remember that if you keep your face to the sunshine, you cannot see the shadows.
