Life Lesson

We learn many thing during our journey through this world, that is our journey of life. When we start our life, we know nothing. We learn things from our parents, teachers and elders. When we attain maturity, we have very few people older than us who are able to teach us from their experiences. That is when we become our own teachers. We learn from our experiences, our mistakes, from our surroundings, from nature etc.
     It is very true that one is never too late to learn. We learn so many things daily from our family, friends, colleagues and even from complete strangers whom we meet during our work or journeys. Recently, there has been a notable addition to this list of teachers, that is the internet. If we are willing, we can learn so much from the web. The resource in the web is enormous, only we need to know where to search for.
     What I feel that to learn new things, what is most important is not the teacher or the learning material. Actually it is the attitude of the learner is the most important factor in the success of the process of learning. If you have the attitude to learn, nothing can stop you from reaching your goal. On the contrary, if you do not have the attitude, no teacher can teach you anything with tons of knowledge with him.
      Of course, attitude is the most important thing in every sphere of life to become successful. If you do not have the right attitude, you can not be successful, you can not be happy, you can not be a winner or you can not be a role model for your followers. In simple words, right attitude is the key to everything we aspire for.
         So it is not at all impossible to learn new things or improve one's life even at a ripe age provided one has the right attitude to start afresh. Enriching one's life with new knowledge, good habits and practices is always desirable and it improves the quality of life and imparts a sense of fulfillment in mind. So we should always make an utmost endeavor to upgrade our lives with new qualities. 

Starting again after one year........

                    Last year, I tried to document my visit to Kerala in this blog. I wrote a number of posts, but somehow lost interest midway. After almost a year, I have decided to continue writing this blog and write whatever comes to my mind to do justice to the title of this blog, 'Mihir's thoughts'.
                   Lately I am exploring ways and means to improve the quality of life. There are beautiful guides on the topic available on the net. I am finding that it is never too late to start good habits, to move towards a healthy life style and to strive seriously to become a good human being. The only thing necessary in this endeavour is the attitude to accept change for the better.
                 There are many habits and behaviours of ours, which we repeat days after days, knowing well that they are not good and best be avoided. In spite of that we do not make any conscious attempt to correct the wrong habit and make the same mistake days in and days out only to regret our action later. But if we can sit quietly for a few minutes and ponder over the thing, deciding ways and means to not repeat the mistake in future with a plan how to do it, possibly it will make our life a little less complicated with chances of regretting our actions at a later date getting less and less.
                The only thing necessary to implement this improvement in our lives is our positive attitude towards change and inclination to improve our habits and behaviours for our own betterment.
