Perception is everything
2015/02/20 6 Comments
Eventually, people feverishly chase Success, thinking that the favorable outcome only, will yield well-being. Ultimately, they seek the right perception.
Genuine Success is never the outcome of mere action. Action only shows to be futile undertaking. What it all boils down to eventually, is PERCEPTION.
Success trying to compensate a bad perception brings about only misery and destruction.
Right perception has to be the beginning, not an end.
Perception spawns right action. I repeat: acting without the right frame of mind – without inner clarity – is really hellish.
The conundrum is that it can take a second or years to appropriate, consolidate and integrate the right perception.
The equation is fairly simple or highly complicated:
Right perception is right action, and this kind of inspired action is its own success.
Perception does open all doors.
If it doesn’t matter where I’m going, I can’t get lost.
If it matters whr you’re staying you can get lost. So do get lost 😉
simply profound . . . again =)
Absolutely right
Good to know. 😉
Thanks
I see this already answers the last question I raised in the other post about change. I agree that the motives and personality changes are very important.
However, consider that other people may still benefit from a right action, even if not from a right motive. Also, sometimes, the more one persists in an action, it may have some positive reinforcement on the natural tendencies; and increase the odds one would perform that action in the future. Of course, one needs more than just repeating the right action to get the right motive. And from yet another perspective, one may say that: the fact that one performed a right action may already imply that the person has some substance/force for good inside the person, even when the person’s overall motivation and approach to life may not seem very “appropriate”.
