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!
