How to become stable & find permanence in life

The illusionary trap of searching permanency and stability in a world full of Impermanence and Instability where unpredictability, inconstancy rules the existence of human beings.

Need for making life sustainable first In order to enjoy the benefits of social security

The illusionary trap of searching permanency and stability in a world full of Impermanence and Instability where unpredictability, inconstancy rules the existence of human beings in each passing moment. Instead one must focus on sustainability first rather than waste precious time & effort searching for permanency in ones life.

Practically searching for permanency of work, job or income is illogical

The above idea seems to be quite logical and therefore we keep struggling to achieve this permanency at least in work and source of Income if not in other aspects of life which may be comparatively more difficult to achieve in practical sense of the things.

Need of altogether different approach

The problem is not so easy to be solved as it seems to be, In fact what is needed is an altogether different approach than what most of us keep on trying to accomplish for a stable life.

Stability is more dependent on values

In the right sense in order to achieve stability one needs to make effort on a completely different note i.e. aspects like honesty, kindness & Integrity.

Important to be aware of ones needs & desires

It is a simple fact that if one is not aware about what ones need's & desire then achieving stability shall always remain a distant dream in life.

Try identifying your priorities in life

It is more about developing a set routine along with identifying ones own priorities in terms of what aspects are more important for a particular Individual's circumstance and abilities.

Reduction of anxiety & stress

If this discipline is garnered in ones life this also helps in reducing anxiety & stress elements.

Importance of set routine

A set routine is important for all of us in order to avoid fatigue and mental disturbance in from of burnout etc.

Lack of discipline is extremely discouraging for achieving a stable environment .

Chasing stability in life at the cost of mental peace

In the series of discussion on this topic one needs to first understand and appreciate the concept of stability in life that everyone is madly and blindly chasing at the cost of mental peace

Paradox of Searching for stability in not so permanent world

In order to take this further the primary question arises is that is it practically possible to achieve real stability or permeance in this not so stable and permanent world ?

Importance of readjustments in life

Many people who do not have a fixed income are also doing exceptionally good In their overall personal and work life. Lot of readjustments are required in order to become stable in real life.

Stage between stability & instability is more enjoyable

It will be very interesting to note that on the contrary it has been proven in different psychological & philosophical surveys that life at a point between stability and instability is far more satisfactory and enjoyable.

Discipline is the main key for gaining stability

Therefore instead of running for stability in life one must focus first on discipline life events.
