Kindness Mistaken For Weakness: Robin Sharma

For many years in the past, we had cats in-home or you can say I was a cat person, not a dog person. Last kittens we had 4 siblings all boys 3 years back. All of them except 1 left us untimely, the sad part. Then we decided that let cats come and go, we will feed but not pet them.

This year is a dog year to me. Since January I have been with 1 dog then 2 more near home and now 1 more. Total we have 4 dogs now. I used to afraid of dogs and now they surrounding me all the time so that feeling fade away. Now I feel more love and connection towards them.

Often times, being kind is viewed as a weakness. Whether it is being kind to ourselves, or being kind to those around us. In all reality, kindness is a strength and negativity is the real weakness:

Why Kindness is Not A Weakness by Robin Sharma

  • In the last hour of your last day, you will regret if you were not kind in life.
  • Kindness taken for weakness meaning is that many people feel that if you are kind enough then they can say anything to you. They start taking kindness for weakness.
  • By the majority kindness mistaken for weakness. Kindness is not a weakness
  • Robin talks about his mentor when he was a young litigation lawyer. He asked him what is the best advice for him? 
  • Mentor said Robin be kind.
  • We resist our kindness only when we are scared.
  • It's all about staying safe.
  • Famous people you know have faced serious problems in their life.
  • They deal with Constant Limbic Hijack. 
  • It means their perception is narrow and the heart is closed because they want to be safe.
  • To heal a wound you need to feel the wound.
  • What most people do on the planet? They swallow all the pain.
  • People who are frightened they become aggressive because inside them is a child who trying to be safe.
  • Ask yourself why you can't be compassionate towards people?
  • Ask yourself why you can't be the kindest person in the room?
  • The more I give to the family and the world, the more I get.
  • It's all about being kind and generous.
  • The more people you help, your life becomes more rich and fulfilling.
  • Taking time in the evening to listen to a family member who just wants to be heard is kindness.
  • Believe me, that kindness will come back to you in 100X.
  • Nelson Mandela was in prison and jailor peed on him but when he got free and met that jailor he was kind enough to him.

Work Hard on Yourself than Your Job

One of the things I learned through my struggling years, work hard on yourself than your job. As soon as I learned it, I started reading and applying the teachings from self-help books of the famous authors and coaches. And I can feel the difference but not much. Some of my good friends have closely observed me while watching me growing. Some of them admire me and most of them turned their back because of jealousy. One thing I always remind myself, be ready to walk alone. I also found there are only 2 options for everything:- You can do it Or you can not. There is nothing in between these 2 options. Today we have an interview with Eric Thomas by Lewis Howes " When you want to succeed as bad as you want to breath, then you will be successful". Eric just completed his PhD. How he did it? He says it is the American dream. It's the greatest time and country to be born. Through education he got everything. Not talking about degrees but real education. He dropped out of high s...

Design an extraordinary life by Jim Rohn

Hi there, how are you all? This pandemic time is pretty challenging. When it started we had no idea how life will be in it. Now almost after 6 months, we have started believing that the situation will be the same in the near future. No medicine is going to be invented, at least I have this feeling.  Image by  DarkWorkX  from  Pixabay   Design an extraordinary life by Jim Rohn Jim says it is possible and he doesn't know how far you want to go. The first essence is self-preservation. Produce sufficient for taking care of yourself.  Produce enough to take care of yourself. In a flight, if you are without oxygen then put your mask first only then put it on your children. His father said, "son you are the first most important person after me in my life". Andrew Carnegie said that the first half of his life he will spend in making money and the second half in giving it away. He earned 40 billion dollars in the first half and in the latter half he gave it away. We...
