hello friends,
There is a goldmine within everyone,from which we can extract everything we need to live. People who recognize it, is full of confidence and faith.They know ,they will win and succeed. But people who don't recognize, is full of fears and doubts. They fail to achieve what they want . Friends what do you think? Correct me if I am wrong, and please share your valuable views .

I think if a person knows themselves well and what they want and need then you have that goldmine. You can miss alot about oneself if don't take the time to know yourself. You are more apt to achieve what you want also. If you don't know yourself how can you offer the entire self?

yes, to achieve any, we have to know our self first, many don't know what they want in life and what exactly they need,such people cannot recognize the precious gift in them.

Hi prashu, You have made a discovery that most people never realize. That which we have been seeking is and always has been within us. Jesus Christ said it this way:"the kingdom of God is within you", but the majority still didn't get the message. Blessings.

yes, many a times, we possess the valuable things with us but we just don't realize, what we are missing. If we start understanding our self,then we can realize it .

yes i agree. we have a goldmine inside each of us. though most of the time we do not know how to define what that "goldmine" maybe. so most of the time, we do not know how to extract it.
we are good in something. it may seem pointless to some, but it may also be significant for others.
people who know how of course would have enough confidence since they alraedy know that potential.

yes, many cannot recognize ,what they are really worth of, such people need to be taught, or pushed forward to realize what they actually can do.

you are right. there are good points and bad points with each one of us. We must use the good side of ourselves.
We have to be positive. Develop positive thinking. in fact i gave you a link for creative thinking. did you see that? was it useful.

yes of course , it is very useful.
many a times, bad covers the good,so even though the person is good we cannot see it.

You are not wrong.Instead,you are absolutely right.We indeed have a goldmine within us.We can get our aims achieved and our desires fulfilled.The only condition is,we must work hard and be disciplined and sincere to achieve it.Hard work.planning and sincerity can make us successful in all walks of life.I agree with you.

yes, even though we work hard, sometimes we may lack the confidence and negative thoughts may enter, so we should be cautious, and have the capability to fill or self with positive energy and move further and continue our journey.

qunquanzhang:
imagine you get $1000. (only imagining). you will feel happy and you may think why I should not be given $10000 --i think my friend bh ... would have got more than this.
Then imagine you get $100000. then you will think i could have been given $500000 because my friend ja........would have got it.
yes. money is one thing we will never be satisfied. that is the bad side in us which wants more and more. on the contrary if it is food you cannot take more than one pizza. finished. after that everything is extra only and to be given to others.
contentment is the key to happiness.
your avatar looks like bridal make up for marriage? am i right?

the reason why we do not give others is the fear that we may not get it in future. it is right and it is also wrong. May be i was also like that when i was young. I know the younger generation is having fear about many uncertainties in life.

ah, money, we always want it, and no limit to it, we cannot say no. Food, there are many even don't like to share their food, even if its extra and going to get spoiled, they like to throw it ,but cannot give to anyone. Different mentalities, cant blame.

I would not call it a goldmine but the possibility to get what you really want. This means you have to have faith, believe in your goal, have to be willing to make sacrifices and not abusing other people. And if it comes to confidence I would call it: self esteem. Full of fears and doubts.. interesting remark since mostly the most religious people are, I always wonder how come if you believe in (your) god. Esp. those should be full of joy, happiness, faith, believe, confidence.
