Keys to Successful Living

Part 3

(Anon)

We should understand our capacities and potentials, and then we should express ourselves in the external world with full confidence, acting steps without any reservations. Thus there are three in performing  an action: first, forming an opinion within ourselves; second, expressing our opinion to others; and third, executing our opinion.

          Understanding Habit Patters

The main thing that one should learn in life— and it is not taught in the home or in the schools – is self analysis. We should learn to analyze ourselves. If we really want to understand ourselves, we can analyze our personality by understanding our habit patters. This is not difficult. We should simply try to be consciously aware of every action we perform and realize that our actions are virtually our thoughts. Without thought there can be no action. Habit patterns and thoughts are reveal trough behavior. There is a branch of psychology called behaviorism that is based on this concept. But one should understand the external behavior alone cannot reveal everything about a person.
