Great Lessons You Can Learn From a Child

Paulo Coelho once said that “A child can teach an adult three things: to be

happy for no reason, to always be busy with something, and to know

how to demand with all his might that which he desires.”

BUT I believe that they can teach us even more ….

1# Be Happy For No reason

« Be Happy For No reason : If you are happy for a reason , you are in a trouble , because that reason

can be taken from you »Deepack Chopra

These little creatures always tend to find the bright side of

everything , which is a wonderful human trait that we eventually

lose while growing up.

2# Live in the present

People don’t realize that now is all there ever is; there is no past or future except as

memory or anticipation in your mindEckhart Tolle

Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow has not yet come. We have only Today .Let’s begin…

Mother THERESA

Enjoy your present ,Live it fully !

3# Pursue Your Curiosity

Kids are driven by curiosity, constantly in pursuit of the unknown. Curiosity guides their education and influences their path forward. Following our curiosity expands our horizons and often leads us to brilliant personal discoveries.

4 # Enjoy Life’s Simple Pleasures

Kids don’t need a bunch of best selling toys in order to enjoy

themselves. Put a kid in a puddle and watch him cheerfully splash

around. Give him a permission to chase the cat around the house

for a couple of minutes the giggles will be contagious

5# Laugh more!

Laughing can change your mood in a heartbeat! In many situations, it really can be the best medicine. Giving yourself

permission to have fun and laugh more can really enhance

your life in so many ways.

6 # To Love Unconditionally

Learn to give without expecting anything in

return, for that is what real and unconditional love is all

about, and that is what children can teach you.

7 # To Use More of Your Imagination

Kids are always using their imagination, whether they

are playing a game or drawing a picture. They

love pretend play and are intrigued by stories about magic, dreams and what

seems humanly impossible.

If you think about it, imagination is the seed of

the feeling of joy. When you indulge in your dreams,

endorphins are released, giving you a nice warm

sensation

It’s amzing , For kids, everything in life is possible No matter what

you do, no matter who you are, no matter where you are, learn to use

more of your imagination, because just like the great Albert Einstein said it: “Imagination is

more important than knowledge.”

8 # Be Always Joyful

Children are always happy because they find joy in little

things. They get excited when they see a butterfly, jump over a

puddle or dance in the rain . They do not over analyze situations and do not assume the worst in people

or situations. They keep things simple…

9# Forgive and Forget

Just observe kids playing , thay may quarrel, But

minutes later, the tears have dried and they are

playing happily together as if nothing happened they

forget it and move on

It’s an attitude of forgiveness that we often don’t practice

ourselves in our everyday life….

9# Believe in Yourself

Simple as that! You just have to believe as

strongly as kids do. Consider everything possible and you will achieve a lot more.

It is amazing how kids can have so much faith that their wishes

will be granted. Ever get bothered by your kids until you

“cave” in to give them what they want? Believe me; it is not easy to resist to their cheeky

smiles.

10 # Be Honest

At earliest, kids don’t hide their feelings, they are honest to a fall. They call every shot just

like they see it , spontaneously , the moment it

happens

The often-times brutal honesty exhibited by children “That man

has a moustache!” I don’t like him or “Mom, you look fat in that

dress!”. But as kids get older and learn to

modify the honesty that once came naturally, we may find ourselves missing

that incomparable god’s gift !

Open honesty in conjunction with clear communication

builds strong character and healthy relationships with

others. People will listen to you if

they trust you TRUST is the glue of life!
