What is your perspective on life?

There is a great saying, "Your perspective on life comes from the cage you were held captive in."

Our perspective on life is based on our previous incident, it may be good or bad or both. If a person has good things in his past he lives his life accordingly and if something went wrong he always keep a positive hope, everything will be alright.

Same way if a person has bad experience in his past he always keep himself in fear and worried about his future, nothing is going to be right in my life. 

Basically both the experience comes from our pattern which we have already experienced in our past and set in our mind, and it never allow us to go beyond it.

There is a very practical example from which we can learn from how this thing works. When a baby elephant born it is tied with a thin rope and when he try to jump he fell down and gradually when it grows he has the same feeling in his mind, If I jump I will fall down and this way he easily bound by thin rope.

If we see the elephant is not a baby now it become adult and he can break the small rope very easily but a pattern has been set in his mind I can never break this rope from his childhood and that is the reason he never tried in his adulthood also.

Sometimes one may fail in his exam or career so he keep thinking I can not do anything in life and he always carry a pattern in his mind where his mind always tells him, you can not do anything. result he give up everything.

So, what is the solution for it, how do we overcome from this?

The best way to come out of this tragic situation is to do some regular exercise, keep association with positive minded people, chant some Vedic mantras regularly, reading of Vedic scriptures, remembering and making notes of few good things which you have done in past.

As Lord Krishna says in Bhagwad Gita, Mind is our best friend and worst enemy, if we control our mind then it is our best friend and if our mind control us the n it is our worst enemy.

Changing our pattern of mind will change our life. Keep your worries aside and start now to think of a bright future there is always a new hope with new day.
