Today I am going to share with you how we can balance our spiritual and materialistic lives.

Below I am sharing with you 10 simple ways to maintain balance in one’s life; if implemented, can eventually bring happiness and peace in our lives.

  1. Do not go into any extremes in any area of life, practice balance.
  2. While conducting your daily chores or while in your job, always be transparent in your dealings while also being smart. This means that we should simply try performing all dealings with utmost honesty and care.
  3. Do not hurt anybody intentionally.
  4. If you do commit a mistake, ask for forgiveness and move on. Do not cry about past mistakes. Learn from them and keep improving.
  5. If someone doesn’t forgive you even after you asking them for forgiveness, simply ask forgiveness from the Lord. If the Lord forgives, everything else falls into place. And btw, the Lord always forgives, lest you should learn from your previous mistakes.
  6. Try spending at least 30 mins daily in meditation.
  7. Keep your Dhyana in positive things and conversations. Wherever, negative and hateful conversations take place, leave. If you cannot leave, simply take your mind elsewhere in a positive place, nobody can see your mind. You do not need to show it off, in fact there’s nothing to show off, it’s a choice that we all make on a daily basis.
  8. Never consider anybody superior or inferior to you, ‘coz nobody is. Treat everyone with love and kindness equally.
    See all as human beings and do not differentiate anybody based on religion, caste, color, etc. God resides in all of us and we all are equal in the eyes of the Lord. So we must treat each other with respect.
    While you do this, also take care that in corporate settings, there is a hierarchy according to the ranks/ positions. Be smart to follow the hierarchy as well.
    Maintain a balance in being kind and being professional. This will come only with practice, there’s no other way.
  9. If someone wrongs you, have courage to stand up for yourself even if nobody else stands up for you. It is very important for your peace of mind too. Always be courageous. Do the right thing.
  10. Have faith in the Lord. Whoever you believe in. Have utmost faith and conduct all your actions in complete Faith.

There could be many other things to list down but I guess that this should suffice for the basics to live by in a job set up. I might have missed out something though, and if you — the reader, wants to add more points to these, feel free comment below.

Namaste.
