Expansion -Self confidence
*One should save one self by one’s own self; one should not lower. For, one’s own self is verily one’s own friend; one’s own self is verily one’s own enemy.
In the process of learning, self –helping is the best help. Depending always on others, even on teachers and parents, is a sign of weakness. One must learn to stand on one’s own feet. The secret of success lies in self-confidence and self-reliance. Teachers and parents can only help us to manifest strength, power and perfection that are already with in us.
Timidity and self distrust are almost as great faults as conceit and over confidence. There are many people, who have real talent in different lines, and yet who never accomplish anything, because they are afraid to make the first venture; and in this way good and useful things are lost to the world. A reasonable amount of confidence in one’s own powers is necessary for successes.
Making the best life
Men who are always grumbling about their poverty, complaining of their difficulties, whining over their troubles, and thinking that their lot this world is mean and poor, will never get any happiness out of life or achieve any success. However mean our little life may be , if we face it bravely and honestly and try to make the best of it, we shall find after all it is not so bad as we thought : and we may have our times of happiness and the joys of success. There is nothing common or unclean, until we make it so by the wrong attitude we adopt towards it.
Pride in one’s work
It is a great thing to take a pride in our work. Any thing that is worth doing at all is worth doing well. Even in the humblest task we should be ambitious to do it as well as we can, if possible better than anyone else. For example, a cobbler should not think that because his job is a humble one. It can be scamper and done any now ; he should be determined to make better shoes than any other cobbler; and a tinker should take pride in mending even an old kettle better than any other tinker can.
