What you sow, is what you reap!!
Couldn’t have found a better phrase that describes what we feed our mind, reflects in our thoughts, conversations and behaviour.
Read some beautiful posts penned on this prompt, my take here is about our PERSPECTIVE, towards life, our careers, our jobs, our kids but most importantly about our relationship with our SELF.
While addressing a group of enthusiastic parents in a workshop, the image of a glass filled with water triggered innumerable thoughts about how each one of us has a uniquely different perspective towards the same object/ experience/event.
The glass, the content and the emptiness of the container and the image took me on an inward trip.
How much can I hold, decides my capacity, my capability!!
What content I have within deciphers the depth of my personality, my attributes and my traits!!
The emptiness of my container would determine how much I am willing to accept myself as an individual, how much I am ready to accept the people in my ecosystem, and my ability to respond to any change in the environment and within myself. And that provides me with a way to creatively explore myself!!
This was an incredibly empowering thought.
Sometimes, it is convenient for us to find faults with others, blame the circumstances for not being cordial, or not favourable for us. And at times, we go on to criticize ourselves for not being able to address circumstances adequately or begin to doubt our capabilities. It is in those situations that the power of positive self-talk can be best used to introduce that shift in our thought process.
And when that happens it won’t bother us whether our glass is half-empty or half-filled, we would be completely assured that it has the Right Content in it.
Trust you me that makes the difference!!!
So before we go on a guilt trip or choose to find faults with others, let’s revisit the content in our glasses, as they say
What you sow, is what you reap!!
Have a wonderful ever after!!!
