The
Reflections is not just a collection of quotes. It is a powerhouse of
motivation, wisdom and insight.
The
book is divided into four sections - Appreciating others, Words and
Language, Grooming Young minds and Parenting, and General Quotes. I
simply loved the followed quotes from the book.
A child
when seeking your attention as a parent simply wants appreciation.
We
humans have an innate hunger for being appreciated. Those who satiate
this hunger always stay back in our good memories
Appreciation
has the power to turn underdogs into super performers if done
consistently over a period of time.
Many
people lose track of their lives as there is lack of appreciation in
their immediate environment. So, appreciation is vital in realizing
our true potential.
Before
you expect appreciation from others, you should take pride in your
achievements. Only this way, appreciation received will reinforce
your belief.
Words
should always be chosen based on the audience’s background and the
overall context.
Don’t
speak for few minutes when you are angry. You may be simply venting
your anger but someone’s life may take turn for the worse due to
your words.
If one
generation works hard and becomes learned and educated, the next
generation’s learning grows manifold.
Love
your children despite all their imperfections as they belong to you.
You will find that slowly all their imperfections become less
significant to their perfections.
However,
I have some reservations about a few quotes like the following
Never
hesitate to object people from using harsh words, however big they
may be in position relative to you. You will be doing your own good
and won’t let people trample you with their feet.
I
am impressed with the book. This book is the best gift that you can
give to your loved ones.
