PART II: Consistent Habits to Cultivate: Chapter 10: Develop good intentions


Listen Later

Part I of this podcast series has covered a basic understanding of our mind, with an emphasis on life’s essential facts. We have now understood how to build self-belief, grow a healthier subconscious mind, develop the courage to face any situation and finally build solid self-confidence and self-esteem.

Part II of this podcast series uses these foundational qualities to cultivate consistent habits. These habits are not difficult to follow but it takes a decent amount of willpower, determination, interest, discipline, and sincerity to develop a new habit. But this is entirely in our control. If you want to add a good habit to your life, you must focus on doing it daily. When you practice a habit regularly, it becomes a part of your everyday routine. The key to victory is maintaining consistency.

Being a wonderful person with purity in thoughts does not depend on your religion, status in life, skin color, political views, or culture. It depends on how you treat others and how you treat yourself. Other factors too decide what makes a person remarkable, and many notable writers have explained these factors in their writings, but being the right person won’t matter if we are not good to ourselves. Proof of true spiritual evolution lies in the beautification of our intentions. The world may dirty you at the external level, but only you can dirty yourself inside. If you become beautiful inside, you don’t have to go on a pilgrimage in search of God. God will come in search of you. It is not by conquering the world that you feel complete about yourself. It is by conquering yourself that you feel complete about yourself. This is self-mastery. Compete with the purity of intention. Your intention should be to win, not to defeat anyone.
