What was the biggest MISTAKE which made me FAIL for many years:
Actually it can be summarized in one word
"NO"
I said YES to everything that happened in my life:
1. Saying YES to allow not so good people into my life
2. Saying YES to giving up in tough situations
3. Saying YES to allow negativity (selfishness, anger, jealousy, impatience, desperation, greed, fear, sadness, loneliness, disgust, rage, annoyance, hate, frustration, helplessness, guilt, depression, criticizing, regret, stress, confusion) in my life
When we say YES to what we don't want,?we are saying we want more of it.
It is just the opposite of the law of abundance.
Let us call it the LAW of SCARCITY!
Till I followed the law of scarcity I failed.
I attracted bad managers, bad friends, bad customers only because I was bad:) I also attracted negativity & failures for the same reason
It was ME not THEM.
I was unable to say NO
Once I started to say NO my life started to change.
NO also signifies clarity & removes confusion.
You must have heard many people saying.
I am unable to say NO:)
I was one of them. I lacked character.

No is the most powerful word. It means saying Yes to the right things.
Why do we make WRONG DECISIONS:
There are 5 reasons why I made wrong decisions:
1. Fear: Fear of failure, FOMO (Fear of missing out) were most common, Fear of losing what we have. I struggled here.
2. Greed: Getting quickly & easily what others have. Greed is mostly driven by comparisons. I was a greedy person.
3. Emotions: They get the better of us & force us to make wrong decisions. The instability inside leads to instability outside. I struggled with emotions.
4. We don't know what we don't know: Little knowledge is dangerous. This is the one that made me go wrong many times.
5. Listening to others: Sometimes we have to listen to everyone but do what our heart says. I seldom listened to my heart.
I made several wrong decisions, most of my wrong decisions were around money & people. I lost a lot of money & people made a fool of me.
I learnt my lessons the hard way:
There are 2 ways I make decisions now
1. Do exactly what my heart feels
2. Do exactly what my soul guides: this comes through connecting spiritually with self & others. These are like those messages on WhatsApp groups that come to us but we miss reading
Are you following the principle of scarcity?
Are you saying NO?
Why do you make wrong decisions?
Are you following your heart & soul?

2 年We usually make wrong decision because of foolishness and greed is also attached with it.
LEADERSHIP TRAINING THROUGH AWAKENING EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE
2 年Why DO WE MAKE WRONG DECISIONS? Because we are all victims and also responsible for acting without serious consciousness. Are we aware that a WRONG EDUCATION has been teaching us that "Intelligent is the one who has learned to LIE better and better"... Ignoring that searching sincerely for a TRUTHFUL behavior is much closer to act as TRUE HUMANS... The main cause of wrong-doing is called EGO (me-me-me)... Complete UNCONSCIOUSNESS ... EGO = SATAN of all religions... INFRAHUMAN behavior = similar to animal psychology... Time to wake up, and stop sleeping and snoring 24 hrs. a day...
