What we can gather from the conversation above is that the saying “Practice makes perfect” isn’t entirely accurate; instead, it should be “Practice make...

Swami Vivekanand once asks his guru Ramakrishna Paramahamsa, “Why are we constantly unhappy?” Ramkrishna Paramahansa replied saying “Worrying has become your habit. That’s why you are not happy.”

We are programmed and imbibed many things that we are unaware of The way we think, our beliefs, behaviour, characteristics and our emotional reactions. Above that, the mind always loves to hear good things that bring pleasure or pleasantness to it and doesnt heed to hear advice, criticism and negative feedback.

Not knowing the power of resourcefulness, we find reasons or excuses to blame someone else, something else for our misfortunes. We blame genetics, our upbringing, circumstances, situations and lack of resources for our failure.
