1. The Law of Seed

2. While you read, apply to your life

3. The Law of the SeedTake a look at an apple tree. There are hundreds of apples on the tree and each apple has ten seeds. That's a lot of seeds!

4. We might ask, "Why would you need so many seeds to grow just a fewmore apple trees?"

5. We have something to learn from Nature here.

6. Nature is telling us: “Not all seeds grow. Most seeds never grow”.

7. So if you really want to make something happen, you better try more than once."

8. This might mean:You'll attend fifteen interviews to get one job. You'll interview fifty people to find one good recruit.

9. You'll talk to fifty people to sell one house, one car, one vacuum cleaner, one insurance policy, or a business idea

10. And you might meet a hundred acquaintances just to find one special friend.

11. When we understand the “The Law of Seed, we don't get disappointed.

12. We stop feeling like victims.

13. We learn to deal with things that happen to us.

14. Laws of nature are not things to take personally.We just need to understand them - and work with them.

15. In a Nutshell:Successful people fail more often. But they plant more seeds.

16. When things are beyond your control, here's something that you mustNOT DO so as to avoid misery in your life:

17. - You must not decide how you think the world SHOULD be.

18. - You must not make rules for how everyone SHOULD behave.

19. Because, when the world doesn't obey your rules, you get angry!

20. That's what miserable people do!

21. On the other hand, if you expect that:

22. -Friends SHOULD return favors.-People SHOULD appreciate you.

23. -Planes SHOULD arrive on time.-Everyone SHOULD be honest.

24. - Your husband or best friend SHOULD remember your birthday.

25. You are setting what seems reasonable expectations which often won't happen!

26. So you end up frustrated and disappointed.

27. Adopt a better strategy:Demand less, and instead, have preferences or options!

28. For things that are beyond your control, tell yourself:

29. "I would prefer this, but if that happens, it is OK too!"

30. What really is changing here is a mindset. It is a shift in attitude, and it gives you more peace of mind ...

31. You prefer that people are polite ... but when they are rude, it doesn't ruin your day. You prefer sunshine ... but if it rains, it is ok too!

32. To become happier, we either need to:a) Change the world, or b) Change our thinking.Changing our own thinking is easier !

33. IN A NUTSHELLIt is not the problem that is the issue, it is your attitude towards that problem that is the issue.

34. It's not what happens to you that determines your happiness.It's how you think about what happens to you!It is your thoughts that matter !

35. It is never too late to live happily.Today is the beginning of happiness in rest of your life.
