Thought for the Day 5th Feb 2025

[Jambunathan Iyer]

My Learning from Vivekananda’s Teachings Live with an Ideal, Realize the Self

Many wander through life without an ideal, drifting without direction. Swami Vivekananda reminds us:

“If a man with an ideal makes a thousand mistakes, the man without an ideal makes fifty thousand. Therefore, it is better to have an ideal. Let it enter our hearts, our brains, our very veins, until it tingles in every drop of our blood.”

" What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals. If you want to live a happy life, tie it to a goal, not to people or things "
