Above all else, a personal working philosophy of an individual determines the outcomes of people in particular. There is no better way to achieve individual goals other than first developing a personal philosophy. What is a personal philosophy? A personal philosophy is a set of values that you stand for and they act as your guiding stars in realizing your dreams.
The great scholars, philosophers, sages, wise men, millionaires and billionaires, great sportsmen and women, Buddha, Jesus, Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela, etc. lived by their personal philosophies because they developed and worked on their beliefs, attitudes, principles and laws. They had their unique philosophy and today we adhere to their teachings and insights.
Having a personal philosophy is very important because it determines our individual future or fate. I like to see that each individual has his or her own philosophy about life in general and values in particular- such as attitudes, gratitudes, health, wealth, relationship, social concern, and human at large. The philosophy of Buddha and Jesus may appeal and work for some but the others must search and develop their own working philosophies in order to live a better life.
The source of good life begins with the philosophy and those who seek prosperity and abundance recognise the value of setting their own philosophy. What to believe in, what not to believe in; what is the heart's desire and what is the goal? We all need to sort out plans what works and what doesn't.
People study and read about biographies of the other people and those biographies contain the essence of philosophy of great men and women and that essence can surely help us mould our own philosophy.
Further, let me make it more clearly, philosophy is something like an owner's manual. You base your foundation and direct yourself according to the values, principles, beliefs, thoughts, insights that you have collected or developed over the period. So be willing to work and develop first your own philosophy so that you can acquire all that you seek and desire.
