The Power of Compassion

With an inner strength increase, it is possible to develop a strong determination. With this strong determination, there is a wider possibility of personal success, no matter what circumstances we face. Obstacles at times can be immense and seem like no way around them, but with an increase of inner strength, we will continue to walk out of the boundaries with ease. On the other hand, when we feel fear, hesitation, and lack of self confidence, is when we often develop a negative attitude. A negative attitude is the actual seed of failure. Image an enormous oak tree growing in a neighbor’s yard. That tree started out as a seed that was planted in the ground. After some time, the seed sprouted and then gradually grew into a tree. A negative attitude starts out as a seed and can continue to grow into as huge tree. If we let this happen within our life, we will have to face one failure after another. There will be no true happiness in our life as a result of feeling failure constantly. One way to strengthen our inner strength is to have compassion for humans. The greater the effectiveness of our altruistic attitude towards humans, the more courageous we become. It is when our courageous approach is at a high level we will feel less vulnerable to fear, hesitation, and low self confidence. Therefore, compassion is very important for a successful future.
