Paradigms
A paradigm is the way you see something; it's your point of view, frame of reference, or belief. Paradigms are like glasses.
Sometimes our paradigms are way off the mark, and as a result, they can create limitations in our life.
For instance: if you believe you're weak in maths, that very belief will make you really weak though you have potentials .

Paradigms About Life
You can usually tell what your paradigm is by asking yourself a few questions like :
- What is the driving force of my life?
- What do I spend my time thinking about ?
- Who or what are my obsessions?
Whatever's most important to you will become your paradigm, your glasses, or your lIfe center.
And Principle-Centered life is The Real Thing. Like, honesty is a principle, hard work is a principle. A principle centered life is the most stable , unshakable foundation you can build upon.

Revenge Is Not Everything
There's a story given in the book that tells us that 'nothing can be achieved from revenge'. Its a heart touching story about a kid who wanted to take revenge of his brother's death. But ends up with 'its not important to be the same else there wouldn't be any difference between him and me'.

The Real Tragedy
“The real tragedy is the tragedy of the person who never in their life braces themselves for their one supreme effort- they never stretches to their full capacity, never stands up to their full stature”.
