By: Alaa Babiker
Life is wonderful. It has been built with all the marvelous matters to allow humans to live, produce, raise, and serve The Good. But of course, evil spirits are always there. They prevent all humans from accomplishing what could have been an extremely decent way of living. This is why God has designed few keys for humans to allow them to open doors of opportunities to experiences and new ways living.
Having a key to something is the best way to understand the core of its operation at all aspects. Next, I will to mention only few keys that will help the readers of coping, living, and surviving certain difficulties in life.
1. The key to Serenity:
It is the first important matter in life that all individuals are looking for to live decent life as it is strongly linked to our Inner Peace as humans. It is needed the most in times of crisis, like the war we are having now in Sudan, it is needed when all the people lose control of their emotions and logic senses due to extreme catastrophe, especially when it is almost impossible to think right and make logic decisions.
Positive thinkers and experts always give advices on how to achieve serenity in one’s life. Here are “10 Essential Steps” that will help you “Cultivate lasting Inner Peace and Serinity – as mentioned at Mindtalk website”:
1- “Embrace Mindfulness and Meditation.
2- Cultivate Gratitude Daily.
3- Limit Exposure to Negativity.
4- Engage in Regular Physical Activity.
5- Foster Deep and Meaningful Connections.
6- Prioritize Self-Care and Self-Love.
7- Seek Solitude and Nature’s Embrace.
8- Practice Regular Detoxification (Digital, Mental, Physical).
9- Engage in Continuous Learning and Growth.
10- Acceptance: Embracing Life’s Ups and Downs”.
2. The key to Prosperity:
Living a high-quality life is something that a person should be aware of and capable of actually achieving. Many people have the money, but they don’t know how to achieve prosperity, because they lack the knowledge what a prosperous life is.
The key to achieving prosperity in one’s life is to realize and truly value what you have. Open your mind to see valuable things around you. Your children, your health, your lovely character all are valuable matters in life. Do not set standards that are meant for other people. Everyone is different; character, environment, culture, and even family, all are different from person to another. One considers owning an expensive can is prosperity, another considers being fully religious is prosperity, look at what you think and believe in and work hard towards achieving and living it; only then, that will achieve prosperity in life.
3. The key to positive thinking:
Thoughts are one’s way of living. As a wise man once said: “you are what you think”. If you think negative you will attract all the negativity to your life. And if you think positively you will definitely attract all the positivity to you where you will start noticing good events happening in your life and to your loved ones.
Today there are many writers and trainers who greatly help us to think positively about our life and the way we live, but most importantly is to start practicing positive thinking and not wait for it to just happen. Below I suggest few books that will help you look at things differently and in a more positive way:
1- The Power of Positive Thinking by Norman Vincent Peale: it is one of the greatest books that will guide you and give you examples and techniques to restore you spirit, think in a more positive way, and live a happier life.
2- Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill.
3- The Magic of Thinking Big by David J. Schwartz.
