Each person is an individual with different parameters, which, like a computer filling, can perform various operations for different times. Of course, a person is not a computer, he is much cooler, even if it is the most modern computer.

Each person has a certain grain, this is called the grain of truth, if a person takes care of and cherishes the grain within himself, then an excellent harvest will grow that will delight him!

You understand that the grain is our soul, in order to feel the soul, you need to have some kind of supersensory abilities.

Another example is that Man produces a breed every day, leaving only gems. If, of course, he knows what precious stones look like, and if he sorts out only ore, skipping diamonds and other precious stones, believing that these are just stones, then this person has problems in life.

Life is such a thing, it is like a man who shovels ore to find diamonds! What are diamonds? This is the motivation that gives us to act in this world, but the fuses of motivation are constantly melting, you need to refuel your motivation in order to continue to act effectively. Where does motivation come from? The cornerstone is information, correct information is like a compressed spring, if taken correctly, the spring expands and shoots right at the target and we reach the target very quickly. If we treat motivation incorrectly, then why, then the spring shoots in the forehead. Why is this happening? Because our inner intention is the basis for what we act, what we want to receive and whether our motivated actions will harm others!

In this article, I have collected the most motivational quotes and statuses, as they say of all times and peoples. But of course, it's up to you to choose what will hook you the most. In the meantime, we make ourselves comfortable, make a very smart face, turn off all means of communication and just enjoy the wisdom of poets, artists and just plumbers, perhaps!

Life circumstances are formed not only by specific actions, but also by the nature of a person’s thoughts. If you are hostile to the world, it will respond the same to you. If you constantly express your dissatisfaction, there will be more and more reasons for this. If negativity prevails in your attitude to reality, then the world will turn its worst side towards you. Conversely, a positive attitude will most naturally change your life for the better. A person gets what he chooses. This is the reality, whether you like it or not.

No illusions - no disappointments. You need to starve to appreciate food, experience cold to understand the benefits of warmth, and be a child to see the value of parents.

You need to be able to forgive. Many people think that forgiveness is a sign of weakness.

Dario Salas Sommer

We rush through life at breakneck speed, in a hurry to have time to do what seems so necessary, and having achieved it, we understand that we were in a hurry in vain, and we are in some strange state of dissatisfaction. We stop, look around, and are faced with the thought: “who needs all this? Why was such a race necessary? Is this life with meaning? As soon as our brain is overcome by a lot of questions, we try to find answers from psychologists, in literature, we remember wise quotes about life with meaning. It is such a moment that turns on our consciousness, which may have been dormant for a long time.

Our civilization has come to a serious danger, as a negligent mistress has accumulated a lot of things, a huge amount of weapons, equipment, spoiled environment, acquired a lot of unnecessary information, and now does not know where to apply it all and what to do with it. The cornucopia has become a heavy burden for both our general and individual consciousness. The standard of living has improved, but people have not become happier, but even vice versa.

Why do people find a way out of difficult situations only in death? And why do many of us begin to understand something when we come across quotes about the meaning of life?

Let's turn to the wise for an explanation

Now we are ready to blame anyone for our troubles, in our sleeping consciousness. Blame the government, education, society, everyone but ourselves.

We complain about life, but at the same time we are looking for values ​​where, in principle, they cannot be: in acquiring new car, expensive clothes, jewelry and all human material goods.

We forget about our essence, about our purpose in our world, and most importantly, we forget about what the sages tried to convey to the souls of people in ancient times. Their phrases with meaning about life today are as relevant as possible, they are not forgotten, but they are not perceived by everyone, and not everyone is imbued with them.

Carlyle once said: "My wealth is in what I do, not in what I have". Shouldn't you be thinking about this statement? Isn't there in these words deep meaning our being? Such beautiful sayings There are many worthy of our attention, but do we hear them? These are not just quotes of great people, this is a call to awakening, to action, to life with meaning.

Wisdom of Confucius

Confucius did nothing supernatural, but his teachings are the official Chinese religion, and thousands of temples dedicated to him were erected not only in China. For twenty-five centuries, his compatriots have been following the path of Confucius, and his aphorisms about life with meaning pass from generation to generation.

What did he do to deserve such honors? He knew the world, himself, knew how to listen, and more to hear people. His quotes about the meaning of life are heard from the lips of our contemporaries:

• “A happy person is very easy to recognize. He seems to radiate an aura of calmness and warmth, moves slowly, but manages to do everything, speaks calmly, but everyone understands him. Secret happy people simple is the absence of tension.
• "Beware of those who want to impute guilt to you, for they crave power over you."
• “Poverty is ashamed in a country that is well-ruled. In a country that is badly ruled, riches are ashamed.”
• "The person who made a mistake and didn't fix it made another mistake."
• “Those who do not think about distant difficulties are sure to face close troubles.”
• “Archery teaches us how to seek the truth. When the shooter misses, he does not blame others, but looks for the fault in himself.
• "If you want to be successful, avoid the six vices: sleepiness, laziness, fear, anger, idleness and indecision"

He created his own system of state organization. In his understanding, the wisdom of a ruler should be to instill in his subjects respect for traditional rituals that determine everything - the behavior of people in society and the family, the way they think.

He believed that the ruler must, above all, respect the traditions, respectively, and the people will respect them. Only with such an approach to government can violence be avoided. And this man lived more than fifteen centuries ago.

Confucius catchphrases

“Teach only the one who, knowing one corner of the square, imagines the other three”. Such aphorisms about life with meaning Confucius spoke only to those who wanted to hear him.

Not being an important person, he could not convey his teachings to the rulers, but did not give up and began to teach those who wanted to learn. All students, and there were up to three thousand of them, he taught according to the ancient Chinese principle: "Do not share origin."

His clever sayings about the meaning of life: “I don’t get upset if people don’t understand me, I get upset if I don’t understand people”, “Sometimes we see a lot, but we don’t notice the main thing” and thousands more of his clever sayings were entered by students in a book "Conversations and Judgments".

These works became central to Confucianism. He is revered as the first teacher of mankind, his statements about the meaning of life are paraphrased and quoted by philosophers from different countries.

Parables and our life

Our lives are full of stories about cases from the lives of people who drew certain conclusions from what happened. More often people come to conclusions when sharp turns happen in their lives, trouble overtakes or gnaws loneliness.

It is from such stories that parables about the meaning of life are composed. They come to us through the centuries, trying to make us think about our mortal life.

Vessel with stones

We often hear that it is necessary to live easily, enjoying every moment, because no one is given to live twice. One wise man explained the meaning of life to his students by example. He filled the vessel to the brim with large stones and turned to the disciples with a question about how full the vessel was.

The students stated the fact that the vessel was full. The sage added smaller stones. Pebbles are located in empty places among large stones. The sage again asked the disciples the same question. The disciples answered with surprise that the vessel was full. The sage added sand to that vessel, after which he invited his students to compare their lives with the vessel.

This parable about the meaning of life explains that large stones in a vessel determine the most important thing in a person's life - his health, his family and children. Small pebbles are work and material wealth, which can be attributed to less important things. And sand determines the daily bustle of a person. If you start filling the vessel with sand, then for the rest of the fillers, there may not be room left.

Each parable about the meaning of life carries its own semantic load, and we understand it in our own way. Who thinks, and who does not delve into, some compose their no less instructive parables about the meaning of life, but it happens that there is no one to listen to them.

Three "I"

For now, we can afford to turn to parables about the meaning of life and draw at least a drop of wisdom for ourselves. One such parable about the meaning of life opened the eyes of many to life.

The little boy wondered about the soul and asked his grandfather about it. He told him ancient history. There is a rumor that in every person there are three “Selves”, from which the soul is composed and the whole life of a person depends. The first "I" is given to be seen by everyone around. The second is that only people close to the person can see it. These "Selves" are constantly at war for leadership over a person, which leads him to fears, worries and doubts. And the third "I" can reconcile the first two or find a compromise. It is invisible to anyone, sometimes even to the person himself.

The grandson was surprised by the story of his grandfather, he became interested in what these “I” mean. To which the grandfather replied that the first "I" is the human mind, and if he wins, then a cold calculation takes over the person. The second is the human heart, and if it has the upper hand, then the person is destined to be deceived, touchy and vulnerable. The third "I" is a soul that is able to bring harmony into the relationship of the first two. This parable is about the spiritual meaning of the life of our existence.

meaningless life

All of humanity has one natural quality that determines the desire to find meaning in everything and, in particular, life itself, for many this quality wanders in their subconscious, and their own aspirations do not have a clear formulation. And if their actions are meaningless, then the quality of life is zero.

A person without a goal becomes vulnerable and irritable, he perceives the slightest difficulties with wild fear. The result of such a state is one - a person becomes easy to manage, his talents, abilities, individuality and potential gradually come to an end.

A person places his fate at the disposal of other people who benefit from his weak character. And a person begins to take someone else's worldview as his own, and automatically he becomes led, irresponsible, blind and deaf to the pain of his loved ones, senselessly trying to earn authority among those who use it.

Whoever wants to accept the meaning of life as an external authority ends up taking the meaninglessness of his own arbitrariness for the meaning of life.

Create your destiny

You can decide your destiny with the help of powerful motivation, which is often dictated by aphorisms about life with meaning. After all, the meaning of life is different for everyone, either acquired by experience, or coming from outside.

Einstein said: “Learn from yesterday, live today, hope for tomorrow. The main thing is not to stop asking questions…. Never lose your sacred curiosity.". His motivational quotes about the meaning of life lead to the only the right way many.

Aphorisms about life with the meaning of Marcus Aurelius, who said: “Do what you must, and what will happen will happen”.

Psychoanalysts argue that a greater success from an activity can be expected if this activity is given maximum meaning. And if our work also brings us satisfaction, then complete success is guaranteed.

Questions arise about how education, religion, mentality, worldview of a person influence the meaning of life. I would like the values ​​and knowledge acquired over the centuries to unite all people, regardless of their worldview, belonging to religion and era. After all, quotes about life with meaning belong to people of different times and beliefs, and their significance is the same for all sane people.

Our position in the universe requires an eternal search for answers, ourselves, our place in life, involvement in something. The world has not come up with ready-made answers, but the main thing is to never stop. Aphorisms about the meaning of life call us to movement and actions that are useful not only to ourselves, but also to those around us. “We live for those on whose smiles and well-being our own happiness depends” as Einstein said.

Wise thoughts help to live

Psychologists use quotes about life with meaning in communicating with clients, since people are creatures who, having no opinion of their own, having lost any meaning, believe and are imbued with beautiful phrases of famous people.

Quotes about the meaning of life are declared by actors from the stage, they are pronounced in films, and from their lips we hear words that are really significant for all mankind.

Remarkable statements about the meaning of life by Faina Ranevskaya still warm the souls of women who are tormented by loneliness and disappointment:

• “A woman to succeed in life must have two qualities. She must be smart enough to please stupid men, and stupid enough to please smart men.”
• “The union of a stupid man and a stupid woman gives rise to a mother-heroine. The union of a stupid woman and a smart man creates a single mother. The union of a smart woman and a stupid man gives rise to an ordinary family. The union of a smart man and a smart woman gives rise to easy flirting.
• “If a woman walks with her head down, she has a lover! If a woman walks with her head held high, she has a lover! If a woman keeps her head straight - she has a lover! And in general - if a woman has a head, then she has a lover.
• "God made women beautiful so that men could love them, and stupid so that they could love men."

And if you skillfully apply aphorisms about life with meaning in a conversation with people, then hardly anyone will call you a stupid or uneducated person.

The wise Omar Khayyam once said:

“Three things never come back: time, word, opportunity. Three things should not be lost: calmness, hope, honor. Three things in life are most valuable: love, conviction,. Three things in life are unreliable: power, luck, fortune. Three things define a person: hard work, honesty, achievement. Three things destroy a person: wine, pride, anger. Three things are the hardest to say: I love you, I'm sorry, help me. – beautiful phrases, each of which is imbued with eternal wisdom.
