The Constructive And destructive Power of Promises

On a cold night, a billionaire met an old poor man outside.

He asked him, "Aren't you feeling cold outside, and you're not even wearing a coat!" The old man replied, "I don't have a coat but I'm used to it.

The billionaire replied, "wait for me. I'll just go home and get you a coat."

The poor man was so happy and said he will wait for him.

The billionaire got to his house and got busy there and forgot about the poor man.

The following morning, he remembered the poor old man and went out to find him but found him dead due to the cold.

The poor old man left a letter saying, "when I had no warm clothes, I had the mental strength to fight the cold, but when you promised to help me, I clinged to your promise and it killed my mental power."

Don't promise anything if you can't keep your promise. It may not be necessary to you, but it could be everything to someone else.

Change Your Habit

To be fair, your brain certainly loves habits. Why? Because they’re a repetition of certain behaviors over time. The more you repeat them, the more your brain is used to them. Chances are that you’re already practicing many habits every day, even if you’re not aware of it. Scrolling through Tik Tok videos on your phone as soon as you wake up. Brushing your teeth from top to bottom, or left to right. Preparing the same type of breakfast each morning. Choosing your favorite spices to add to a meal. Also that bad habit you have when you’re stressed — biting your nails, lighting a cigarette, taking a second beer out of the fridge, helping yourself to more potato chips, staying up half the night watching TV. All of those behaviors — whether you think they’re good or bad — are habits. When you start practicing a new habit you believe to be good for you, your brain resists. It's as if it’s telling you: Why are you getting up so early? We like it here in this warm bed! Why don’t you have

REBUILD YOURSELF FROM TOXIC SOCIAL MEDIA

Social media, Keanu Reeves has no social media for anything, you can’t find him on the internet anywhere. I think that’s one of the things that has helped him grow into such a humble person. Everyone brags about how happy they are and how kind they are on social media, but Keanu doesn’t do that. He doesn’t brag about anything, and with no social media, that has definitely helped him resist any temptation to. He also does so many kind things and doesn’t tell anyone, which is one key to being humble. That’s one thing that makes him the great person he is today. Lastly, I don’t mean to not text your friends or use a phone, just don’t indulge yourself in the endless scrolling of other people’s lives, don’t focus on all the bad things in this world, and start focusing on how to make yourself a better person.

Interesting Buddhist Life lesson

The tale of two monks and a woman is a well-known Buddhist parable. The story goes that two monks were traveling together, a senior and a junior. They came to a river with a strong current where a young woman was waiting, unable to cross alone. She asks the monks if they would help her across the river. Without a word and in spite of the sacred vow he’d taken not to touch women, the older monk picks her up, crosses, and sets her down on the other side. The younger monk joins them across the river and is aghast that the older monk has broken his vow but doesn’t say anything. An hour passes as they travel on. Then two hours. Then three. Finally, the now quite agitated younger monk can stand it no longer: “Why did you carry that women when we took a vow as monks not to touch women?” The older monk replies, “I set her down hours ago by the side of the river. Why are you still carrying her?” Here are some tips Don't dwell on your past Don't be so much emotionally invested in anyth
