Anything can be a teacher

    The only real courage is to be yourself.

    To become a blacksmith, you need to forge.

    The best teacher in life is experience. Charges a lot, but explains clearly.

    Learn from your mistakes. This feature is the only thing useful about them.

    Courage, will, knowledge and silence are the assets and weapons of those who follow the path of improvement.

    When the disciples' ears are ready to hear, lips appear ready to fill them with wisdom.

    The mouth of wisdom is open only to the ears of understanding.

    Books give knowledge, but they cannot tell everything. First seek wisdom from the scriptures, and then seek Supreme guidance.

    The soul is a prisoner of its ignorance. She is chained by the chains of ignorance to an existence in which she cannot control her destiny. The purpose of every virtue is to eliminate one such chain.

    Those who gave you your body endowed it with weakness. But EVERYTHING that gave you a soul armed you with determination. Act decisively and you will be wise. Be wise and you will find happiness.

    The greatest treasures given to man are judgment and will. Happy is he who knows how to use them.

    Anything can be a teacher.

    The "I" chooses the "I"'s method of teaching.

    Giving up freedom of thought may mean losing the last opportunity to understand the laws of the Universe.

    True knowledge comes from the highest path, which leads to the eternal Fire. Delusion, defeat and death arise when a person follows the lower path of earthly attachments.

    Wisdom is the child of learning; Truth is the child of wisdom and love.

    Death occurs when the purpose of life is achieved; death shows what the meaning of life is.

    When you meet an arguer who is inferior to you, do not try to crush him with the force of your arguments. He is weak and will give himself away. Don't respond to evil speeches. Don't indulge your blind passion to win at any cost. You will defeat him by the fact that those present will agree with you.

    True wisdom is far from stupidity. A wise man often doubts and changes his mind. A fool is stubborn and stands his ground, knowing everything except his ignorance.

    Only one part of the soul penetrates into the earthly chain of time, while the other remains in timelessness.

    Avoid talking to many people about your knowledge. Don’t keep it selfishly for yourself, but don’t expose it to the ridicule of the crowd. A loved one will understand the truth of your words. The distant one will never be your friend.

    May these words remain in the casket of your body and may they keep your tongue from idle talk.

    Be careful not to misunderstand the teaching.

    The spirit is life, and the body is needed in order to live.

About friendship

A true friend is known in misfortune. - Aesop

My friend is the one to whom I can tell everything. - V.G. Belinsky

As rare as true love is, true friendship is even rarer. - La Rochefoucauld

Affection can do without reciprocity, but friendship never can. - J. Rousseau

Friedrich Nietzsche

  • A woman is considered thoughtful, why?
    Because they can’t find out the reasons for her actions. The reason for her actions never lies on the surface.

    The same affects in men and women differ in tempo; That’s why a man and a woman never stop misunderstanding each other.

    Everyone carries within himself the image of a woman, received from his mother; this determines whether a person will honor women in general, or despise them, or, in general, treat them with indifference.

    If spouses did not live together, good marriages would occur more often.

    A lot of short madness - you call it love. And your marriage, like one long folly, puts an end to many short follies.

    Your love for your wife and your wife's love for her husband - ah, if only it could be pity for the suffering hidden gods! But almost always two animals guess each other.

    And even your best love is only an enthusiastic symbol and painful ardor. Love is a torch that should shine for you on higher paths.

    A little good food can often make the difference between whether we look at the future with hope or despondency. This is true even in the most sublime and spiritual realms of man.

    Sometimes sensuality overtakes love, the root of love remains weak, unrooted, and it is not difficult to pull it out.

    We praise or blame, depending on whether one or the other gives us a greater opportunity to discover the brilliance of our mind.

Study, education

Each person is an individual with different parameters, which, like a computer filling, can perform different operations at different times. A person is certainly not a computer, he is much cooler, even if it is the most modern computer.

Each person contains a certain grain, this is called the grain of truth; if a person looks after and cherishes the grain within himself, then an excellent harvest will grow that will delight him!

You understand that grain is our soul, in order to feel the soul, you need to have some kind of supersensible abilities.

Another example - A person produces a rock every day, leaving only precious stones. If, of course, he knows what precious stones look like, but if he only sorts through ore, skipping diamonds and other precious stones, believing that they are just stones, then this person has problems in life.

Life is such a thing, it is like a man who shovels ore to find diamonds! What are diamonds? This is the motivation that gives us to act in this world, but the fuses of motivation are constantly melting, we need to refuel our motivation in order to continue to act effectively. Where does motivation come from? The cornerstone is information, correct information is like a compressed spring, if we accept it correctly, the spring opens up and shoots exactly at the target and we reach the target very quickly. If we treat motivation incorrectly, then why, then the spring shoots into the forehead. Why is this happening? Because our inner intention is the basis for why we act, what we want to get, and whether our motivated actions will harm others!

In this article I have collected the most motivational quotes and statuses, as they say, of all times and peoples. But of course, it’s up to you to choose what will hook you most. In the meantime, let's get comfortable, put on a very smart face, turn off all means of communication and just enjoy the wisdom of poets, artists and just plumbers!

Working on yourself is the hardest work, so few people do it.

Life circumstances are shaped not only by specific actions, but also by the nature of a person’s thoughts. If you are hostile to the world, it will respond in kind to you. If you constantly express your dissatisfaction, there will be more and more reasons for this. If negativism prevails in your attitude towards reality, then the world will turn its worst side towards you. On the contrary, a positive attitude will naturally change your life for the better. A person gets what he chooses. This is reality, whether you like it or not.

Just because you're offended doesn't mean you're right. Ricky Gervais

Year after year, month after month, day after day, hour after hour, minute after minute and even second after second - time flies without stopping for a moment. No force can interrupt this run; it is not in our power. All we can do is spend time usefully, constructively, or waste it in a harmful way. This choice is ours; the decision is in our hands.

Under no circumstances should you lose hope. The feeling of despair is the true cause of failure. Remember you can overcome any difficulty.

Within us there are many unnecessary habits and activities on which we waste time, thoughts, energy and which do not allow us to flourish. If we regularly discard everything unnecessary, the freed up time and energy will help us achieve our true desires and goals. By removing everything old and useless in our lives, we give the opportunity to bloom the talents and feelings hidden within us.

We are slaves to our habits. Change your habits, your life will change. Robert Kiyosaki

Magic is believing in yourself. And when you succeed, then everything else succeeds.

Some people smile because you smile. And some are just to make you smile.

He who reigns within himself and controls his passions, desires and fears is more than a king. John Milton

One day, sit down and listen to what your soul wants?

We so often do not listen to the soul, out of habit we are in a hurry to get somewhere.

You are where you are and who you are because of how you perceive yourself. Change the way you think about yourself and you will change your life. Brian Tracy

Life is three days: yesterday, today and tomorrow. Yesterday has already passed and you won’t change anything about it, tomorrow has not yet come. Therefore, try to act honorably today so as not to regret.

A truly noble person is not born with a great soul, but makes himself such through his magnificent deeds. Francesco Petrarca

It's time to shake bad thoughts out of your head.

If you are looking for the bad, you will definitely find it, and you will not notice anything good. Therefore, if all your life you wait and prepare for the worst, it will definitely happen, and you will not be disappointed in your fears and concerns, finding more and more confirmation for them. But if you hope and prepare for the best, you will not attract bad things into your life, but simply risk being disappointed sometimes - life is impossible without disappointments.

Expecting the worst, you get it, missing out on all the good things in life that actually exist in it. And vice versa, you can acquire such fortitude, thanks to which in any stressful, critical situation in life, you will see its positive sides.

How often, out of stupidity or laziness, people miss their happiness.

Many are accustomed to existing by postponing life until tomorrow. They keep in mind the coming years, when they will create, create, do, learn. They think they have plenty of time ahead. This is the biggest mistake you can make. In fact, we have very little time.

Remember the feeling you get when you take the first step, no matter what it turns out to be, in any case it will be much better than the feeling you get just sitting still. So get up and do something. Take the first step—just a tiny step forward.

Circumstances don't matter. A diamond thrown into the dirt does not cease to be a diamond. A heart filled with beauty and greatness is able to survive hunger, cold, betrayal and all kinds of losses, but remain itself, remain loving and striving for great ideals. Don't trust the circumstances. Believe in your dream.

Buddha described three types of laziness. The first is the laziness that we all know about. When we have no desire to do anything. The second is laziness, an incorrect feeling of oneself - laziness of thinking. “I will never do anything in life,” “I can’t do anything, it’s not worth trying.” The third is constant preoccupation with unimportant matters. We always have the opportunity to fill the vacuum of our time by keeping ourselves “busy.” But, usually, this is just a way to avoid meeting yourself.

No matter how beautiful your words are, you will be judged by your actions.

Don't dwell on the past, you won't be there anymore.

Let your body be in motion, your mind at rest, and your soul as transparent as a mountain lake.

Anyone who does not think positively is disgusted with life.

Happiness does not come to the house, where they whine day after day.

Sometimes, you just need to take a break and remind yourself who you are and who you want to be.

Don't let anything come out of you that can harm others. Don't let anything into you that can harm you.

Even an intelligent person will become stupid if he does not improve himself.

Give us the strength to comfort and not to be comforted; to understand, not to be understood; to love, not to be loved. For when we give, we receive. And by forgiving, we gain forgiveness for ourselves.

Moving along the road of life, you yourself create your universe.

Motto of the day: I'm doing well, but it will be even better! D Juliana Wilson

If you have fear inside, life will scare you.

If you feel guilty inside, life will find a way to “punish” you.

If I feel bad, then this is not a reason to cause suffering to others.

If you ever want to find a person who can overcome any, even the most severe, adversity and make you happy when no one else can, just look in the mirror and say “Hello.”

If you don't like something, change it. If you don't have enough time, stop staring at the TV.

If you are looking for the Love of your life, stop. She will find you when you do only what you love. Open your head, hands and heart to something new. Don't be afraid to ask. And don't be afraid to answer. Don't be afraid to share your dream. Many opportunities only appear once. Life is about the people on your path and what you create with them. So start creating. Life is very fast. It's time to start.

If you are moving in the right direction, you will feel it in your heart.

If you light a candle for someone, it will light your path too.

If you want good, kind people to be around you, try to treat them attentively, kindly, politely - you will see that everyone will become better. Everything in life depends on you, believe me.

If a person wants, he will put a mountain on a mountain

Any type of relationship is like sand that you hold in your hand. Hold it freely, in an open hand, and the sand remains in it. The moment you squeeze your hand tightly, sand will begin to pour out through your fingers. This way you can retain some sand, but most of it will spill out. In relationships it’s exactly the same. Treat the other person and their freedom with care and respect, remaining close. But if you squeeze too tightly and with a claim to possess another person, the relationship will deteriorate and fall apart.

The measure of mental health is the willingness to find good in everything.

The world is full of clues, be attentive to the signs.

An invisible red thread connects those who are destined to meet, despite the time, place and circumstances. The thread may stretch or tangle, but it will never break.

You can't give away what you don't have. You can't make other people happy if you yourself are unhappy.

You can't beat someone who doesn't give up.

No illusions - no disappointments. You need to go hungry to appreciate food, experience cold to understand the benefits of warmth, and be a child to see the value of parents.

You need to be able to forgive. Many people believe that forgiveness is a sign of weakness. But the words “I forgive you” do not mean at all - “I’m too soft a person, so I can’t be offended and you can continue to ruin my life, I won’t say a single word to you,” they mean “I won’t let the past spoil my future and the present, so I forgive you and let go of all grievances.”

Resentments are like stones. Don't hoard them inside yourself. Otherwise you will fall under their weight.

One day during a class on social issues, our professor picked up a black book and said this book is red.

One of the main reasons for apathy is the lack of purpose in life. When there is nothing to strive for, a breakdown occurs, the consciousness plunges into a sleepy state. On the contrary, when there is a desire to achieve something, the energy of intention is activated and vitality increases. To begin with, you can take yourself as a goal - take care of yourself. What can bring you self-esteem and satisfaction? There are many ways to improve yourself. You can set yourself a goal to improve in one or more aspects. You know better what will bring satisfaction. Then a taste for life will appear, and everything else will work out automatically.

A person's speech is a mirror of himself.

Aphorisms are short sayings that have a certain form and expressiveness. In a word, an aphorism is an apt and clever thought in which the message reaches extreme concentration. From the Greek the word “aphorism” (αφορισμός) is translated as “definition”. This term was first used in the treatise of the great Greek scientist and physician Hippocrates. Gradually, collections of aphorisms began to be created, and they were mainly thematic. And when Erasmus of Rotterdam’s Adagio was published, they became traditional.

History of aphorisms

Throughout, inquisitive minds wanted to comprehend the essence of existence at all costs, and then pass on their discoveries to subsequent generations in the form of aphorisms. In ancient times, such short wise sayings were especially valued. The thoughts of smart people were necessarily written down either by the author of the aphorism or by one of his associates. The creators of these sayings were mainly philosophers, poets, and scientists, who devoted most of their time to studying existence and understanding the phenomena occurring in the world. During all periods of human development, there were so-called collectors of aphorisms who created entire collections of wise sayings. They contain wisdom accumulated over many centuries. A smart thought serves as a reason for thought, and in many cases provides answers to controversial questions.

The use of aphorisms in everyday life

Thanks to these wise sayings, which were once invented by certain people, you can diversify your speech, attract the attention of those listening, make an impression, and win them over. Aphorisms are also called “catchphrases”. After all, once spoken, it flies from one person to another and remains in the vocabulary of many of them for a long time. Recently, there has been a general craze for aphorisms. Many people buy special collection books containing smart thoughts and sayings of great people. By the way, in some of them these sayings are systematized, that is, sorted by topic. For example, there are smart thoughts about life, about love, about jealousy, etc. Some people specifically memorize aphorisms in order to impress others. For example, some speakers, political and public figures, when speaking to the masses, use various aphorisms, specially selected for the occasion. University teachers and high school teachers use these smart thoughts and sayings in their speech in order to win the sympathy of students. Sometimes these catchphrases add imagery to this or that phenomenon, because with their help it is much easier to remember this or that educational material.

Clever thoughts of great people and their meaning

Clever phrases once expressed by the greatest people on our planet are a kind of historical heritage. If we analyze some aphorisms invented by the wisest people on Earth, we can note that each era, each new stage of time is characterized by some common features that are reflected in the subtext of each quote. However, on the other hand, a smart thought relating to certain phenomena, regardless of time and place, the nationality and social status of the person who came up with this aphorism, contains the truth. Here it is expressed in phrases, and through them we are given a wonderful opportunity to join in the greatest achievements of humanity even after many centuries.

How to comprehend the words of great people?

They say that if an outside explanation is needed to understand the meaning of an aphorism, it means that it was a failure. The whole value of these short, apt sayings is that they can be understood without any explanation. The only thing you need to do is read aphorisms, smart thoughts slowly, trying to comprehend every word, emphasis, observing pauses where necessary. And then you will feel all the charm of the aftertaste. A good aphorism, an apt and clever thought, like fine wine, pleases the taste, caresses our consciousness, exalting our state of mind.

Ways of Comprehension

However, the thoughts of intelligent people are sometimes difficult to understand at first reading, just as a very hungry person finds it difficult to feel full from eating. Thus, when we come into contact with the great, we cannot instantly appreciate the full value of the thoughts expressed by great minds. This requires time: one second, a minute or even an eternity, the main thing is that awareness comes by itself, without explanations from anyone from the outside. Each time we return to the source of knowledge and pronounce out loud quotes, smart thoughts and sayings of the greatest people, we also become spiritually richer, charged with the semantic energy emanating from them. But even the most powerful statement read in a hurry, like a piece swallowed on the go, will not bring any benefit. Our ability to comprehend and evaluate smart thoughts and statements is a great benefit that is given to us by the mind and the entire Universe.

Aphorisms about aphorisms


Life Science and Aphorisms

There is no science in the world that would be called “life”, but life, nevertheless, is the most complex and completely incomprehensible science in the world. What a paradox! This subject cannot be studied either at school or at university. To do this, you need to go your own way and gain experience. There are aphorisms that, taken together, can be called a textbook, or rather, a dictionary of our life. Not knowing many things can lead to making many mistakes. Of course, it is impossible to know everything about everything, but you still need to gain basic knowledge by attending school or university classes. However, some things can only be understood based on your own or others' experience. Aphorisms consist of thoughts that are descriptions of this experience, and they help to understand all the diversity and complexity of life.

Smart thoughts about life and the purpose of life

  • Life is the most positive kind of death.
  • The purpose of life is not to try to find its purpose.
  • People can be divided into two categories: those who make interesting for themselves what is interesting for others, and those who make interesting for others what is interesting for themselves.
  • If you want to survive in a difficult situation, then become a weed.
  • Life is the intermediate between pre-death, that is, old age, and post-death, childhood.
  • Life is so dull without sin that you involuntarily begin to sin, falling into despondency.
  • Everything that does not kill us makes us strong, and everything that kills us makes us eternal.
  • Life is like a mill, in the millstone of which every grain is ground.
  • He who wants to find death knows very well the whereabouts of life.
