Endeavor To Cherish Your Personality!

“Nothing happens in life by accident. Nothing occurs by chance. Nothing takes place without producing the opportunity for a real and lasting benefit to you. The perfection of every moment may not be apparent to you, yet that will make the moment no less perfect.” ― Neale Donald Walsch

The most important element in happiness and the most exalted characteristic that humans can enjoy is perfection. This valuable spiritual jewel grants life greatness and authenticity and guides man to the peak of honor and dignity.

All men are humanly equal. Yet, they vary and differ just as their ability to reason and think do. Man’s spiritual habits and behavioral characteristics also differ. The characteristics of a person are all that distinguish individuals from each other and define everyone’s abilities and social positions. Moreover, the human character directly influences us more than any other factor.

Humans were placed in this universe to endeavor to develop their capabilities and widen the horizons of their thinking and real realization; thus, improving their knowledge and strengthening their spirit to achieve perfection.

In other words, man is in this world to qualify himself to fulfill his specific duties. With this in mind, it is the responsibility of every individual to establish a healthy and honest personality and to work on the path to happiness. The harder man works on this path the more he realizes the true meaning of success. There is nothing more capable of giving him the strength to venture into the rough sea of life than a healthy personality.

According to Schopenhaure:

“The variations between personalities are natural and their role in bringing sorrow and happiness into man’s life is more than that which is brought by the difference between various human differences. This is because the characteristics of a per- personality such as productive reasoning and pure affection can never be compared to what man can gain from material be- longings.

A reasonable individual can create an enjoyable living for himself even if he is secluded. On the other hand, an ignorant person cannot rid himself of laziness although he could have all the luxuries of life, even if he were to spend large sums of money to do so.

Reason, management, and the ability to be affectionate are among the vital factors which bring man closer to reaching the goal of his life and open the gates of happiness to him.

Therefore, we must give special importance to the development of these factors more than the development of material gains.

All characteristics and habits share a position in deciding man’s future, and every thought and feeling significant affects these characteristics and habits. It is notable to mention that the manners and conduct of every person are constantly changing towards perfection or otherwise.

The first step towards developing and perfecting the personality is to learn the methods of exploiting the hidden powers and capabilities of one’s self and prepare the self to eradicate all the factors which may pose problems in the path of perfection. Man can then purify himself from all lowliness. If a person does not know his own value, he or she will never be able to bring life to it, nor will he be able to create any fruitful changes therein.

Words and actions hold no real value unless they stem from the depth of one’s existence. Words manifest the holdings of the mind, it is as if they were translations of the otherwise hidden secrets therein. When Words contradict one’s actions this speaks of an unstable Personality and consequently has devastating effects on the individual.
