      "body": "![1540883756745.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmadLEHA6AGe7GCD3DaT6S526DL8SmdnkYd8LzY8ybE7Jf/1540883756745.jpg)\n\nFor most of us, what we do and the decisions we make are motivated by our pursuit of happiness. Knowingly or unknowingly, we are all searching for happiness, joy, and satisfaction, and we base the choices we make on what we feel will create the most gratification for us. However, despite living in an era where things are more convenient and accessible than ever, we often find ourselves feeling more discontent, disconnected, and unfulfilled than ever. It is becoming increasingly common for us to see ourselves lacking in physical comfort, mental calmness, and a positive outlook on life, three fundamental components that promote a happy, fulfilling life. Today I would like to explore deeper into these qualities and how we can improve them to enjoy an elevated natural state effortlessly all the time.\n\n# Physical Comfort #\n\n![importance-of-yoga.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmaUr1TcFTLguGbqXiQeAaFMt4CpMjMZ2QAFB1q9YP5PUJ/importance-of-yoga.jpg)\n\nPhysical comfort comes from having a healthy body that has adequate rest, regular exercise, and a healthy diet. We must create healthy habits such as sleeping early, walking or moving frequently, and eating more fruits and drinking enough water because a healthy body plays such a significant role in our overall morale and emotional state. The most important thing we must do is to identify our unhealthy habits and slowly replace them with healthier habits, by either changing the environment or changing our attitude and how we perceive them.\n\nAnother key influence on our physical comfort is our posture and comportment. Whether walking, standing, or sitting, we should always engage in the right posture. This means our back is straight, and our shoulders slightly rolled back so that pressure on our muscles and joints are evenly distributed. When our posture is good, we can relax more deeply in our body throughout the day, and whatever we are doing, we are comfortable and well-rested.\n\n![breathe-right-opener-raw.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmRxHTxW1XMhtZPBecbRnL8LKGwiSThMFhSYa57p8rgpMr/breathe-right-opener-raw.jpg)\n\nFinally, maintaining a steady breathing pace also helps us relax and find deep comfort in our bodies too. We can learn a lot about our physical wellbeing by observing the quality of our breath. When our breaths are deep and long, we are generally much more calm, healthy, and in control. However, when we find our breaths are short and shallow, its time to change our breathing pattern and slow down the breath by taking a few long and deep breaths. When our breaths are long and deep, our heart also works more efficiently, and our resting heart rate decreases to around 50-60 beats per minute. Our breathing is one vital tool we can use at any time to slow things down, go deeper into a relaxed state, and return to a high physical comfort level.\n\n# Mental Calmness #\n\n![Happy-in-llife-quotes.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmdgXjrB6Nk2YS6JZqNUAnh2Xnahfms3vcZHAgC1SxcmQF/Happy-in-llife-quotes.jpg)\n\nMental calmness is another crucial quality that greatly influences our emotional state and overall level of happiness. By developing a still and peaceful mind, we have more control over our emotions and can handle stress and challenging situations with more clarity and effectiveness. In general, everything improves when our mind abides in a high state of calm, and this is accomplished through deep acceptance of the present moment. The natural law of cause and effect tells us that all effects have a cause, and all causes will lead to an effect. This being the case, everything in this very moment is exactly the way it is supposed to be because of all past causes and conditions, and by acknowledging this, we learn to make peace with what is. After accepting the external environment around, we can begin working towards a better tomorrow, because just as the past conditions the present moment, the future also depends on what we do today.\n\nWhen we accept, peace will inevitably arise, and with a peaceful mind, we experience great joy and comfort. With a calm and joyful mind, our actions and decision making become less a reaction to our fears and insecurity and more about creating pleasure and happiness for ourselves and the people around us. True happiness can only be everlasting when we are also surrounded by happy and content people, so all our actions should be motivated towards creating happiness indiscriminately to self and others. This is the only way to true eternal happiness.\n\n# Positive Outlook #\n\n![Positive-thinking-cloud.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmWygWRJf5DBSKWx2eEySHoVGXG18b78mfhAsi9VFYbUwg/Positive-thinking-cloud.jpg)\n\nPerhaps the most important component to living happily and at ease is to develop a positive and hopeful outlook towards life. Because ultimately, our thoughts create the world around, and our perceptions create good and bad experiences, we can change our outlook on life by transforming our thoughts and perceptions. Through mindfulness, we learn to listen to our inner voice and observe the way we think and perceive the world around us. When we identify certain thought patterns that are unconstructive such as thoughts of anger, hatred, jealousy, arrogance, selfishness and ignorance, we must first realize, through contemplation and introspection, their destructive nature. Only then can we inspire the desire to replace them with more wholesome qualities such as thoughts of patience, kindness, empathy, humility, gratitude, and generosity.\n\nWhen we take on the task of transforming our thoughts and perceptions, we have introduced a spiritual beauty to life that promises great joy and fulfillment because it completely changes our views of ourselves, our experiences, the people around, and the very world we live in. Then all life experiences serve to bring happiness and pleasure or to teach us a lesson that we need to learn. Every day, we become a better, wiser, and more capable person than the day before, and our life is filled with hope, energy, and positivity. With such an outlook on life, not only do we live happily every day, but the people around us will benefit immensely from us also.\n\n# Conclusion #\n\n![4798_plate.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmSfiVDh9QG1UKChgiH2its4iTbSyCVx8ovjoxxQecED9j/4798_plate.jpg)\n\nHappiness is a quality of life that everyone desires. The good news is we all have the potential to experience natural states of joy effortlessly all the time. By looking after our health, posture and breath, we abide in physical comfort. Through deep acceptance of the present moment, we realize mental calmness and clarity. And by changing of our thoughts and perceptions, we transform our outlook on life into a wholesome and positive one. As we work towards improving these three aspects every day, we will surely find ourselves growing in contently, joy, and fulfillment, and only when we are happy with ourselves can we share happiness with others.\n\nAs everyone learns how to live holistically, happily and harmoniously, we progress towards peace and unity, which is the ultimate goal for humanity. May we all play our part in the process and make the world a happy place for all.\n\nThanks for reading😊\n\nKind regards,\n\nByron ❤\n\nhttps://bekindbehappy.net/2019/11/26/how-to-be-effortlessly-happy-all-the-time/",

You never know what you’re going to get”. The thing is, we are continually reminded of the validity of this quote every single day. Life is full of ups and downs, highs and lows, happiness and heartbreak, the expected and the unexpected. It is natural for us to prefer the good times and to hope everything goes our way. But despite so, that is never the case, and to be honest, I think life is better with a mix of everything; like a box of chocolate.\n\n![tx4aga7lwuu21.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmY6b7PvvYgaTvRzk4FUEdswsUSwrfKeacU34zuWCLxgtc/tx4aga7lwuu21.jpg)\n\nWould life really be that perfect if everything always went the way we wanted it to? Do we always know what’s best for us? Or do good things sometimes arise from seemingly adverse circumstances? And is it actually better to also experience a degree of hardship and obstacles?\n\nIn this article, I would like to suggest that we should all enjoy the good times, but also learn from the bad. That life is never going to pan out the way we expect it, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. That everything is teaching us something we need to learn, and all of life’s imperfections are what makes life perfect just the way it is.\n\n# Enjoying the good and learning from the bad #\n\n![learned-optimism-4174101-5c047424c9e77c0001ad2ad2.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmPMwxyn9LwBWLRWAfvyy6BeE9WnyUwENcxmDZFJ5TY1fn/learned-optimism-4174101-5c047424c9e77c0001ad2ad2.png)\n\nIt is inevitable that life will always be a mixture of good and bad. The perception of good comes from us liking something, and the perception of bad comes from what we dislike. It is not always possible to control the external environment to always get what we want, but we can most definitely manage our attitude and how we perceive things. Because when our attitude changes, our perceptions change, and that changes everything.\n\nFor example, when we experience frustration and disappointment, problems and setbacks, instead of letting it bring us down, we can perceive them as precious opportunities that test our resolve and challenge our problem-solving abilities. Simply by making this one small change in attitude, these once negative situations now become tools for spiritual growth and personal development. It’s not to say that such moments won’t still be challenging, but they will be confronted with positivity, hope, and enthusiasm.\n\nOver time, we will see the importance of having obstacles and challenges in life as they provide us with so much wisdom, experience, and understanding. Then we naturally develop a mind that remains calm and optimistic regardless of the surrounding environment, and we learn to perceive the positive qualities of all circumstances. All it takes is a change in attitude and suddenly all situations, good or bad, become learning moments and opportunities for growth; we become open to all the valuable lessons life is trying to teach us.\n\n# Life is an adventure full of mysteries and the unexpected #\n\n![hope-in-career-development-750x450.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmaCzhsNbFB8ieK2kyQey2J3trQVpVVzfW2mNC4SyRFPiT/hope-in-career-development-750x450.jpg)\n\nWe all have an ideal we want to follow. A path we think will lead us to happiness and fulfillment. And we want nothing more than for things to go the way we plan. However, life is never straightforward, throwing all sorts of mysterious possibilities and unexpected scenarios our way when we least see it coming. When that happens, we cannot help but feel stressed, anxious, and hopeless.\n\nBut what if what we think is best for us is what is limiting us? That when we insist on one rigid path, we lose sight of everything else around us? I want to suggest that life may be more adventurous, meaningful, and vast if we were to maintain an open heart, a flexible mind, and a curious attitude. We must admit to ourselves that we don’t always know what’s best for us, because there is just too much we haven’t considered, too much we cannot see. It’s possible to remain positive in all circumstances, optimistic in the face of all challenges, and hopeful at all times, because there are always benefits, opportunities and precious lessons within all good or bad situation. We just need to know where and how to look, and it begins with developing a flexible, curious, and brave attitude.\n\nAs with all phenomena, there is always another side, and it’s up to us to uncover it. For example, being sick at home may seem bad, but it gives you some time for reading, meditation, or introspection. Losing your job may appear to be a great misfortune, but it’s also a good chance to choose something else you really enjoy, to reignite your passion, and to start a fresh new chapter. Being constantly busy at work may seem too much to bear, but it’s a unique opportunity to cultivate patience, concentration, and empathy and become a master of your trade. When something bad happens, it is up to us to uncover its positive side, change its label from disaster to opportunity, and turn anxiety and despair into gratitude and optimism. Over time, we will see the light within all seemingly dark situations, we realize that life has a perfect blend of mystery, adventure and opportunity, and that’s what makes life perfect just the way it is. By changing our attitude and mindset towards life, we change the entirety of life itself.\n\n# Conclusion #\n\n![1_FWo_H272cTd5goxDHhduiQ.jpeg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmQFVBPr4GLJnbNt6cMMD2QpVJwr69F1RTs85KUSrRZzTH/1_FWo_H272cTd5goxDHhduiQ.jpeg)\n\nUltimately, life just is. What is it? That’s entirely up to us. It is not surprising that optimistic and grateful people are generally happier and more fulfilled because they perceive the positives in life. Similarly, closed-minded and negative people tend to suffer more stress, anxiety, and misfortune because they habitually focus more on the downside. With a flexible, open mind and a curious, brave attitude, we will realize that our family, friends and colleagues all have experiences we can learn from, that our schools and workplaces are places for growth and development, and that all of life’s ups and downs, highs and lows are valuable lessons that serve to teach us something we need to learn. When we live life with such a mindset, every day is full of potential, every moment is a miracle, and every experience is uniquely profound. Life will be perfect just the way it is.\n\n![warto-czytac-1050x728.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmRG3xKF28w5mNUxZXbd3zyda4Ue5dwNNmg4nBAfWR4PDe/warto-czytac-1050x728.jpg)\n\nMay we all enjoy our own enriching adventure of life and may we learn from everything around us to become the best versions of ourselves we can be.\n\nThanks for reading\n\nKind regards,\n\nByron ❤",

It causes oneself endless pain, anxiety, and stress, while also leading to much suffering for the people around. The Buddha once said, “holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intention of throwing it at someone else; you are always the first one to get burnt.”\n\nAnger results in errors of judgements, it ruins friendships, and it destroys all peace of mind. Consequently, a person dominated by anger experiences no joy, healthy relationships, or luck and fortune. This is why it’s important to be mindful of our anger and learn to manage it in a healthy way that ensures it diminishes over time. Below, I discuss three practical and effective ways to deal with anger and how we can transform it into patience, kindness, and insight.\n\n**Patience against Anger**\n\n\n\nLike all feelings and emotions, anger arises from conditions and will inevitably pass away. Instead of trying to suppress it by pushing it away, or reacting to it with destructive actions, we can simply observe it, remain calm and gentle-minded, and let it pass away on its own. Every time we don’t react to it, it loses its power. Every time we witness its passing away, we experience peace. Then over time, we strengthen our resilience and patience, and circumstances won’t affect us the way it used to.\n\nAlthough in theory it is easy to understand, the difficulty lies in having the presence of mind to remain calm and patient when anger arises. But when we see the merits and importance of overcoming anger, our perspective towards it changes, and we learn to perceive them as challenges that test our resolve. Then, we begin using them as tools for spiritual growth and personal development. When our patience and tolerance is heightened, anger no longer presents an obstacle because we have our inner fortitude to overcome anything life throws at us. This is the advantage of cultivating patience and how we can use life’s challenges and obstacles to our advantage. By perceiving negative situations from a constructive point of view, we have already lessened its adverse effects.\n\n**Kindness against Anger**\n\n![1_BI3NqUO9Su-8MUIP2KDszA.jpeg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmTPQfKUkyeyw3THtAn4CYb1xpHGWFqzMLij4zatKZE8Pg/1_BI3NqUO9Su-8MUIP2KDszA.jpeg)\n\nUsing kindness to manage anger is the most direct way to deal with it because a quality is always diminished by its opposite. Just as hot water cools down when we add ice to it, anger diminishes in the presence of loving-kindness. Furthermore, anger is a self-centered emotion, while kindness is focused outwards towards others. A kind and loving mind is happy, gentle, and friendly and so naturally, anger and hatred is less likely to overwhelm. But when it arises, we learn to apply our empathetic and embracing attitude to the situation and the anger automatically subsides. Consequently, our mind returns to its peaceful and relaxed state, and we have once again overcome anger with kindness.\n\nIn theory using kindness is logical and straightforward, but in practice it may be difficult to inspire when we are confronted with challenging and stressful moments. I think it is important to remember that we are the same in that we all want to be happy and comfortable while avoiding pain and suffering. From this perspective, we are all equal and should treat others the same way we wish to be treated. When we interact with others in such a manner, our inner kindness shines forth, and it becomes easier to remain open-minded and empathetic. As we realize the damage anger causes and the joy that kindness brings, we naturally behave more peacefully and harmoniously with ourselves and the people around. This single change in attitude will lead to great joy.\n\n**Insight against anger**\n\n![wisdom.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmWSBVSUnYrEFpdR87bYqkUCtnRwTNXBbTFnjXWkmrqhjs/wisdom.jpg)\n\nWhen we have established a certain degree of patience and kindness and no longer feel overwhelmed by anger, we can use it to develop wisdom and insight. During moments when we experience anger, hatred or any other hurtful emotion, we should remain calm and composed, and try to understand where it is coming from. By doing so, we can directly address the problems at its root to ensure the conditions that bring about anger no longer arise. This is what mindfulness is about, and it has the power to heighten our awareness and strengthen our connection between mind and body, so we understand more about our habits and thought patterns.\n\nAlthough we can not usually control the external environment and what happens to us from the outside, we can always influence our reaction and attitude. With insight into what causes and conditions lead to our anger, anxiety, and suffering, we can transform them into more peaceful and harmonious conditions that lead to joy, pleasure, and relief.\n\nFor example, if we get angry when things don’t go exactly the way we want it to, we can relax our expectations and become more flexible. If we feel stress and tension when others insult or disparage us, we can learn to soften our egos. By using insight to manage hatred, we take responsibility for our happiness instead of constantly laying the blame on others. Only then can we truly realize the inner peace and joy we want and deserve. This is how we can use wisdom and insight to manage not only our hatred but all negative and destructive feelings and emotions.\n\n**Conclusion**\n\n![Man-Meditating.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmUhQYnUUYsD67LFMLd9ECfRknYqMYUnrGKcMBzyhLoPaB/Man-Meditating.png)\n\nIt is clear to see the destructiveness anger brings to ourselves and the people around but much more challenging to handle it when it overwhelms us. However, there are many methods to manage anger, and the best way is to develop patience, kindness, and insight.\n\nIf we practice likewise, our attitude towards anger is transformed into optimism as we realize we can use anger as a means to cultivate wholesome virtues and qualities. Similarly, other negative emotions like hatred, jealousy, arrogance, and anxiety no longer overpower us as they can help us become better, kinder and wiser people. Only then are we able to be the source of joy and positivity our friends and family need. We will have endless happiness to enjoy ourselves and even more to share with the world.\n\nMay we all enjoy a life of great happiness and harmony and be free from the constraints of anger and hatred.\n\nThanks for reading\n\nKind regards,\n\nByron ❤\n\nhttps://bekindbehappy.net/2019/08/13/transforming-hatred-into-peace-and-joy/",

When a person is calm, his energy affects all the people around, bringing others an air of comfort and peace by making them feel that everything is going to be okay. A calm person is relaxed, assured, and stable, making him better capable of dealing with stressful situations and solving problems effectively and efficiently. Consequently, he gains the respect of others, is pleasant to be around, and abides joyfully in this world.\n\nToday, I’d like to share two main ways to develop our inner calmness by highlighting how to increase our physical calm as well as our mental stillness.\n\n**Physical Calm**\n\n![AN32-Heart-Plate-Jumprope-732x549-thumb.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmT5LTyCxRzA4DfXruPxgcULdpYaCWBpMZsCaYwaG21ZmZ/AN32-Heart-Plate-Jumprope-732x549-thumb.jpg)\n\nHealthy lifestyle concept with diet and fitness on blue boards\nBecause of our mind-body connection, the condition of our physical well-being has a significant influence on our feelings and emotions. If we can maintain a healthy body, our mind will benefit immensely, and we will feel an elevated sense of joy, calm and confidence, and overall positivity. We must always be mindful of the three basic yet vital aspects of a healthy body and monitor them daily. These three pillars of good health are: eating healthy, resting adequately, and exercising frequently. When we can manage these three things well, we will see a significant change in our mental well-being that in turn, leads to inner calmness.\n\nFurthermore, it is important to maintain good posture throughout the day to ensure the tension on our joints and muscles are properly distributed and that we keep our body parts in their rightful positions to minimize stress. Whether we are sitting, standing, or walking, our backs should always be upright, our shoulders should be pulled slightly back, and our necks should be comfortably rested with our gaze just a little lower than horizontal. We should always assume relaxed comportment and avoid tensing up our shoulders, jaws, necks, or legs. We can do this by practicing several rounds of mindful breathing every hour or whenever we can remember. We take a deep breath and fill our lungs up with a good dose of oxygen. Then on our out-breath, we send our body into relaxation by letting go of all the tension throughout our body that we have been carrying unconsciously. You can try it now for yourself to uncover just how much strain your body is carrying. After a few rounds, you are sure to feel a little more relaxed.\n\n![stock-meditacio.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmVQxQHfvFSxTRN7JeGMiYfXVWJeVpEoXxSPvRAGLkxHsu/stock-meditacio.jpg)\n\nEvery time we breathe in mindfully, we clear our minds of mental clutter and regain clarity of thought. And when we breathe out, we relax our bodies and let go of negative energies and emotional burdens that we’ve been carrying throughout. Over time, when our sleep, diet, and exercise is well managed, our physical posture is realigned, and we have regained mindfulness of our breathing, we will notice a sharp increase in our body’s physical comfort. We will feel calm and relaxed wherever we are, whatever we are doing.\n\n**Mental Calm**\n\nBecause we cannot physically see our minds, it is easy to forget that it also needs taking care of. However, not everyone knows how to care for our mental well-being, and so in many cases, we end up doing things that instead bring it harm and suffering. The first thing we should realize is that our minds are just as delicate as our bodies and is equality susceptible to negative influences. We need to show it as much attention as we do to our bodies.\n\n![61076975_m-Mindfulness.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmdf8gsRgeDD7H4pCnRUN9obK44ASbrrHsYB1sJcCPvNTJ/61076975_m-Mindfulness.jpg)\n\nThe first thing our mind needs is our attention. How we feel, what we think, our wants and needs, our joys and pains, we should all be attentive to them, moment to moment. Giving attention to our mental world is called mindfulness, and without this quality, no amount of effort will bring us calm, peace, and happiness. Just as a mother cares for her newborn, never leaving it from her side, we should care likewise for our minds. Mindfulness is another word for deeply listening to ourselves, while maintaining a gentle, kind, and attentive position. This is the highest form of self-love, which, when practiced profoundly, leads to unconditioned joy and fulfillment.\n\nWhen we begin listening to our minds and giving it the attention it deserves, we begin understanding what causes and conditions lead to certain effects and outcomes. For example, with mindfulness, we learn that hatred and anger create much stress, anxiety, discomfort, while kindness and open-mindedness lead to pleasure, ease, and delight. When we witness with mindfulness that wholesome qualities lead to inner peace and happiness, we will naturally begin doing more good and less bad. We learn to live life more harmoniously, generously, and lovingly. When we listen to our minds and give it what it wants and needs, we will inevitably develop a deep sense of calm and confidence.\n\n![break-negative-thinking-1.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmXAhtgkoFYwWLwDPiWiD4RvVVB2gYSVwA65HeKyFFFEus/break-negative-thinking-1.jpg)\n\nBut of course, mindfulness of our inner world may also lead to the discovery of negative emotions, suppressed memories, or even bad thoughts that bring us pain and sorrow. When this happens, we must fight the urge to turn away from our hurting mind, but instead, show it the great care and concern it needs most. The best way to deal with such situations is to realize that like everything else in the world, these thoughts, feeling and emotions are temporary, transient, and have the nature of arising and passing away. With this understanding, we develop patience which is the best virtue to help us manage unfavorable states. With a patient mind, we listen deeply to our pain, embrace it as a mother embraces her baby, and remind it that everything is going to be okay.\n\nWhen we develop mindfulness, patience, and wisdom of impermanence, we naturally give rise to great inner calm, because we learn how to create good states, how to manage bad ones, and realize deep down that no matter what happens, everything is going to be okay.\n\n**Conclusion**\n\n![Happy-Day.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmdpdU9hrnuhwCpPRqpuCDJbXmdm7hb5C6NpSBy7tmrA4p/Happy-Day.jpg)\n\nTo realize our inner calm, it is important to establish healthy lifestyle habits, a healthy body, and a connection with our breath. This will inevitably bring a great sense of physical calm and comfort. To cultivate our mental calm and comfort, we must practice mindfulness, which is simply the practice of deeply listening to ourselves. Then, we create positive states by developing wholesome qualities like kindness, generosity, and empathy, while learning to manage negative states with patience and the understanding that all phenomena is conditioned and temporary by nature.\n\nIf we can internalize these ideas into our everyday lives, we will naturally feel a deep sense of calm, joy and fulfillment, knowing that we have a way to deal with everything life throws at us, and at the end of it all, everything is going to be okay. I hope reading this has brought some benefit to you, and I sincerely pray that we all realize our inner calm, peace, and joy.\n\n\nMay we all live happily, healthily, and harmoniously, and work together to create a wholesome, vibrant, and joyful world for our families, friends, and all future generations.\n\nThanks for reading😊\n\nKind regards,\n\nByron ❤\n\nhttps://bekindbehappy.net/2019/09/26/how-to-realize-your-inner-calm-in-all-situations/",

By having the trust of our family, we can focus on providing for them and enjoy every moment with them. With the trust of our colleagues and managers, we can have more energy to focus on our work and maximize productivity, which leads to greater morale in the workplace. And by gaining the trust of our friends and acquaintances, we create an aura of ease and positivity that others enjoy being around. To earn the trust of the people around us, it is important to develop a deep trust in ourselves, cultivate a great forgiving mind, and have the benefits of others in mind. Today, I’d like to discuss how easy it is to do this, once we make a few simple adjustments to our attitude and the way we think.\n\n**Trusting Ourselves**\n\n![shutterstock_1027589116.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmRY82zRBUEbCMqmcZgwZhbdKDMneKP73dCnQwHAcAMd9L/shutterstock_1027589116.png)\n\nWe must first learn to trust ourselves before we can expect others to do the same towards us. When we ourselves are not assured about the things we do, say and think, how can we expect others to feel assured about us too? The first adjustment we must make is to develop the habit of keeping our word, even to ourselves. When we say we are going to do something, we must do it; otherwise, don’t say it. When we create the habit of constantly going against what we say or making excuses for ourselves, we will do the same to others, which takes away the strength of our word. Consequently, others’ trust in us diminishes.\n\nNot only should we trust what we say, we must also trust how we think; our values, principles, and thought processes. When we are consistently unsure of ourselves and always full of doubt, we will have no confidence in our decision making, which can be sensed by others through our body language, speech, and energy. When we do not have the confidence of others, it will influence the effectiveness of everything we do. To trust how we think, our mind must encompass the interests of others. A person who only thinks for themselves has a small mind, very inward-focused energy, and will not feel considered by others; he will not have the trust of others. However, if a person thinks beyond just themselves, their mind expands, their energy is vast, and others will feel within that person’s care and consideration. Such a person can trust their thinking because they have others at heart. Even if they make mistakes, they will learn from it, and others will forgive them because they are trying their best.\n\n**Deep Forgiveness**\n\n![Slider_Taube.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQme7soarQXweavWz3BQ485VxYfoALsX5sskMRX7vqxr2jL/Slider_Taube.jpg)\n\nAnother key element to earning others’ trust is to create transparent relationships with others. To develop a transparent connection with our family, friends, colleagues, and even ourselves, we must first learn to forgive. Forgiveness is to deeply accept the past, making peace with it, and then let go of the burden, so we do not bring it into the present. It is unavoidable that as imperfect human beings with differing views, we will sometimes create misunderstandings, make mistakes, and have disagreements.\n\nTo firstly forgive ourselves is the only way to move on from pain to pleasure, from darkness to light and from negativity to positivity. To do so, we must have a deep understanding in what we’ve done and how we feel, to acknowledge that we cannot change the past, to learn from our experience, and to use them as tools for spiritual growth and personal development. With such an attitude, we can truly make peace with our past, practice self-love, and feel that no matter what, we will be okay. This is how we learn to trust our self through forgiveness.\n\n![StockSnap_F3FH5XYZY0.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmVm1Q5ipBj7D73CmrTisJ8Cy4wgj6BkgsXfuVyEscxDQk/StockSnap_F3FH5XYZY0.jpg)\n\nTo earn the trust of others, we must take down the barriers that cause separation between them and us. Only when we can truly trust others can we expect others to have faith in us and it begins with forgiving others. What others have done to us, they did so from a position of confusion, anger, or pain. Their actions are a reaction to their feelings and emotions, and we should not take them personally. When we acknowledge that what others have done, are doing and will do are simply reactions to their mental states, we naturally develop compassion which breeds forgiveness.\n\nForgiveness is a natural state when we stop taking things personally, and this happens when we realize that everyone is fighting their own battles, that everyone has their own problems, and no matter how things look on the outside, things are never perfect on the inside. When we forgive others, we bridge the separation, we bring them into our hearts and accept their imperfections as normal human qualities. Over time, when we consistently abide in such a forgiving mental state, we will find that our relationships with others will become purified, healthier, and happier; inevitably, trust will arise.\n\n**The Mind of Benefiting Others**\n\n![loving-others.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmUENiWhyKQFSNmyqB2cvCHXme6YPsJinkLcGmFriY1Aap/loving-others.jpg)\n\nAs discussed earlier, it is difficult to truly trust a person who only thinks of themselves, or who does not have your interest at heart. In order to earn the trust of others, we must cultivate a mind that sincerely cares for the wellbeing of others. Only then will they feel considered and be in a position to trust us. However, developing a mind of benefiting others can be a very daunting and difficult task because we may ask, “what’s in it for us?” But once we experience just how much joy and happiness we create for ourselves and those around by generating such a mind, wanting to benefit others will come naturally.\n\nIn the beginning, it may seem challenging to expand our sphere of contemplation beyond a limited circle. How can we think of everyone when we cannot even properly take care of ourselves or our immediate family? It is okay to begin with ourselves and our family, but we must have the intention to want to grow it outwards. It benefits us immensely to think about the wellbeing of our colleagues, acquaintances among others, because having their trust, creating healthy and happy relationships, and promoting a relaxed and harmonious environment, establishes the type of love, joy, and fulfillment that money cannot buy.\n\nUltimately, we earn the genuine trust of others not through power or authority, but through a mind that encompasses them, that makes them feel cared for and considered.\n\n**Conclusion**\n\n![o-kindness-facebook.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmXfpyM61FYKqgML15WvHHGy3oc8dgv2o3aM9AfDrMJ3Vf/o-kindness-facebook.jpg)\n\nEarning the trust of our family, friends, colleagues, and everyone around is a quality that benefits every aspect of life, it helps us accomplish our goals and tasks, and it creates positive and fulfilling relationships with the people we care about. To gain trust, we must first learn to trust ourselves by keeping our word and being confident with our principles. Then we must practice deep forgiveness of oneself and others to build transparent relationships. Finally, we should develop a mind that encompasses others as one can only truly trust when they feel they are being considered and cared for. If we can make these adjustments to our attitudes and the way we perceive the people around us, we will naturally become someone who will be trusted by everyone.\n\nConsequently, such a person is loved and cherished all, and everyone enjoys their warm presence and joyful aura. Their energy is bright and illuminating, and their heart is gentle, friendly, and dependable.\n\nMay we all become the person that brings light to dark places, delivering a sense of comfort, safety, and peace to the lives of everyone. May we all love and be loved.\n\nThanks for reading😊\n\nKind regards,\n\nByron ❤",
