The end of the year fills most men’s heads with new goals and dreams but sadly few do enough thinking, reenvisioning and rethinking. What if the activity before we leave 2025 is to become more instead of getting more by the end of this year point? I find it interesting how each year we get into the same rut — the pressure, the plan making, the promise making — but what a man’s life changes with is not what he resolves to do January 1st. It is what he resolves upon before the end of December 31st. Here are 10 things that you can do before we leave 2025 and plunge into the year 2026 with vigor, perception, and self-respect — the things backed up by the facts of science, wisdom and practicalities. 1. Audit Your Life, Not Just Your Year Before you set new goals, sit with your journal and ask: What drained my energy this year? What made me feel truly alive? This kind of reflection helps you align your direction with your truth. 📘 Inspired by : “ The Mountain Is You ” by B...
"We don’t see the world as it is. We see it as we are."
Have you ever noticed how two people can walk through the same street in a village and see two completely different worlds? A drunkard will find bars. A gambler will find betting casino. A seeker may pass the same road and not notice either. Why? Because the world doesn’t show us what it is—it reflects who we are.
This is the essence of spiritual perception: the world is your mirror. What you see, feel, and hear outside is only a reflection of your inner self.
👁 The Mirror of Perception
We only see ourselves in the world—our beliefs, our wounds, our biases. The world doesn’t lie to us; it simply echoes us.
If our mind is filled with noise, judgment, and old wounds, even the most beautiful places will feel cold. But when we're at peace inside, even chaos won't shake us. The ego always wants to find what's wrong-because it makes us feel right. But real strength comes when we stop judging and start evolving.
🧠 The Ego’s Hidden Game
Why do some people only see evil, corruption, and flaws? It’s often the ego at play.
The ego gets a secret pleasure in cutting others down—because it helps us feel bigger, better, purer. Like someone trying to make their line longer by erasing others' lines, the ego thrives on seeing others as lesser.
It’s why some people can’t believe a kind person could ever be flawed. While others are quick to declare even the most gifted soul a fraud. It's not truth; it's ego wearing the mask of wisdom.
🌹 Roses or Thorns?
Imagine a rose bush.
One person sees flowers. Another sees thorns.
Both are right—but their experience of life will be entirely different. Those who see thorns will constantly get hurt. Those who see flowers will walk with gratitude. The flowers were always there, but the eyes saw what the heart held.
⚖️ Actions Don’t Define Us. Intentions Do.
We often judge people by a single act. But life is vast, and humans are complex. A person is not their worst moment—or even their best one. What matters more is the why behind the act.
🔍 Focus on Yourself. Not on Others.
Life is too short to count others' flaws.
Buddha said, “Don’t count others’ cows.” Don’t waste your time measuring who is more spiritual, more pure, more evolved. Instead, focus that energy inward—polish your own stone into a diamond.
Real change starts not with fixing the world, but with refining the mirror within. By choosing to let go of judgment, fear, and past habits, you liberate yourself-and the world around you shifts in response. Focus inward, cleanse your inner lens, and watch miracles unfold.
🧘 Change Begins With You
The message is simple but profound:
● The world reflects your inner state.
● The ego clouds your vision with pride and judgment.
● Habit is not a prison—you are the prisoner and the guard.
● People’s actions are not their truth. Their intentions are.
● Stop fixing others. Start evolving yourself.
Once you shift inward, the mirror of life reflects a whole new world back at you.
“Refine your stone into a diamond. That is your real work.”
