How to Overcome Frustrations | The Inspiration Initiative

-


It's powerful when you know precisely where you intend to go. But it's not enough.

No matter how strong your desire is, desire alone will not achieve what you wish to achieve.

You must cross the distance between where you are and where you want to be.

You must take action, with focus, with discipline, commitment and persistence. You're perfectly capable of doing all that.

So go ahead. Engage that capability, make the effort, reach the goal.

Yes, it will be difficult, challenging, uncomfortable, inconvenient. That's what makes it worth doing, what gives it value.

Feel your desire to achieve, to go from where you are now to where you want to be.

Find great satisfaction and fulfilment in doing that work, in covering the ground to make it happen.

Put your frustrations in perspective, and most of them will disappear. Refuse to get caught up in them and they'll have no power over you.

Small inconveniences and minor disappointments can lead to major disruptions if you let them. But you don't have to.

When you feel frustration starting to overwhelm you, choose to step back a little. Sure, the situation may be absurd and outrageous, but is it really all that important?

Introduction Jainism and Hinduism, two of the oldest world religions embraced by mass of the same land, existing in parallel, in peace, since time immemorial. During their theological evaluation it's only natural to find cross section, similarity, correlation and also difference, rejection, and juxtaposition between the two philosophical ideologies. After all, they have literally survived millenniums, successfully, together and yet maintained their distinct identities and uniqueness. What Is The Theory Of Karma?
