Greetings...CRACKED BUCKS...One of the most used expressions in our culture is "There is no servant without faults". But in daily life, we often act cruelly and prejudiced towards both our environment and most importantly ourselves. Indeed. A person's established thoughts about his own value are among the most difficult to change. The values that a person determines for himself actually consist of overgeneralized thoughts. It should not be forgotten that people are not their behaviors. Therefore, when talking about ourselves, it is necessary to avoid expressions that will stigmatize ourselves. And no matter what others say, accepting oneself is a prerequisite for happiness. In order for a person to improve himself, from time to time he should avoid expressing himself. He may need to compare himself with others. However, the generalizations or self-derogatory statements he uses about himself while making these comparisons do not bring any benefit to the person. The real purpose of life is to find satisfaction and joy in life rather than constantly trying to prove oneself. When a person encounters a failure, he should see that this is not the end of the world and be able to say "so what." Saying this should not mean not caring about anything or "it doesn't matter", it should mean "this is not everything". Self-acceptance begins in thoughts and manifests itself in behavior. We must remember that when we behave badly, we are not a bad person, we are just a person with bad behavior. We must know that we can accept ourselves whether we win, lose or withdraw. Let's value the opinions of others, but let's not let these opinions define us. Especially, we should not look at ourselves through the eyes of others. There may be times when we act stupid, but that doesn't mean we are stupid. Even the fact that we try to learn from our mistakes and mistakes is proof that we are not stupid. We may be stupid, but this does not mean that we are stupid. We must try to correct ourselves without shaming, harming or humiliating ourselves. It is much better to accept ourselves as human than to prove that I am superhuman or to see myself as inferior to other people. Being successful may be better, but it doesn't make me a better person. Likewise, failing may be bad, but it doesn't make me better. Let's not confuse the concepts and devalue them ourselves. Let's see and believe that accepting ourselves does not depend on any conditions or anyone. Making a thought revolution is not as difficult as it seems. As long as we believe, be determined and use new thought patterns frequently. "A water bearer in India used to carry water with two large buckets attached to the ends of a long stick hung around his neck. One of the buckets was cracked. While the healthy bucket completed the long journey from the river to the boss's house full every time, the cracked bucket could only carry half of the water put into it home. This situation lasted for two years. The waterman could only take one and a half buckets of water to the boss's house each time. While the solid bucket was proud of his success, the poor cracked bucket felt ashamed because it was only doing half of its duty. One day, at the end of two years, the cracked bucket called out to the water bearer on the bank of the river: "I am ashamed of myself and I want to apologize to you." "Why?" asked the water bearer. The bucket replied: "Because water has been leaking from my crack for two years, I can only fulfill half of my carrying duty. Because of my fault." Even though you work so hard, you don't get the full reward for your efforts.' The water bearer said: 'I want you to notice the flowers on the side of the road on your way back to the boss's house.' Indeed, as he was climbing the hill, the cracked bucket saw the sun warming the wild flowers next to the path. However, at the end of the road, he felt bad because he lost half of his water and apologized to the water bearer again. The water bearer asked the bucket. 'Have you noticed that there are only flowers on your side of the road and there are no flowers on the other bucket's side?..This is because I knew your flaw and took advantage of it. I planted flower seeds on your side of the road and you watered them every day as we returned from the river. For two years I have had this beautiful I was able to pick the flowers and decorate the boss's table with them. If you weren't like this, he wouldn't be able to experience these beauties in his home." Just like in this story, we all have and will have our own flaws. We are all actually a little crazy :) We can open a new page in life by accepting ourselves without being afraid of our flaws, by taking care of them. . Maybe those flaws are our true strength. Let flowers bloom in your heart and whoever gives that permission. Never forget that you can use it without needing approval from the world. We must know that we are not helpless and we must eliminate the obstacles one by one. And we must realize that the most important of these obstacles are the internal obstacles we create for ourselves. The thing to do is to overcome that inner obstacle that leads to despair and say "I am not helpless." Saying "I can't" is an internal obstacle. Everything thought negatively is an internal obstacle, turning negative thinking into positive means getting rid of the internal obstacle. The second way is obstacles that are external to the person. Parents, friends, friends or acquaintances who say "You can't do it, you can't do it, you can't succeed" are the biggest obstacles. When a person cannot overcome the obstacles within himself, he cannot easily overcome the obstacles outside him. The person must overcome the first obstacle by saying "I am strong, I believe in myself, I can succeed", and the second obstacle by not listening to anyone around him who wants to prevent him, and he must experiment with desperation. Instead of waiting for the best time to start, he must start immediately, start now, from where he is right now. , one should start with what one has. When a person's unlimited desire to experiment combines with his belief, opportunities will open up to him and break the back of despair. Because losing something without trying means losing it from the beginning, but losing the same thing by trying means learning to overcome despair by trying. The life of a person who cannot look at his own heart is blurred. Those who have the courage to look into their own hearts are the ones who discover their heart's desire. “The one who looks outside dreams and gets lost in the world of dreams, the one who looks inside wakes up and discovers himself,” says C.G. Jung. I wish all of us pleasant discoveries with fragrant flowers. Without delay, today...
