"A person can think with the heart or think with the brain. There was perhaps a time when people forgot about the work of the heart, but now is the era of the heart, and we must focus our efforts in that direction. Thus, without freeing the brain of its work, we are ready to recognize the heart as a motive power. People have thought up a thousand ways to place limitations on the heart. The works of the heart are understood in a narrow sense, and not even always in a pure sense. We must bring the entire world into the sphere of the heart, because the heart is the microcosm of everything that exists. A person who is not inspired by the great concept of the heart will end up belittling his own significance. We tell people to give up getting irritated, but only greatness of heart will save a person from the poison of irritability. We speak about the ability to embrace, but where is there an all-embracing ocean outside of the heart? We remind people about the distant worlds, but it is the heart, not the brain, that can remember about Infinity. So let us not belittle the organ that has been bestowed upon us to be a receptacle of Grace." -Agni Yoga , Heart 277, (1932)
Hi guys how are you today? I hope you all always in good condition. Lets continue with my DJINN OSHANNUS journey in splinterlands.
A little bit intermezzo.
I hope we all can take same food for our heart. And we can learn from it.
Today i met an old long time friend in some small cafe in the city, he was quite successful in business by owning several successful food business with a lot of employees. But because of pandemic with a very low sales generated from his business he was now totally bankrupted with a lot of debt still need to pay.
"Yo my man what's up? Long time no see, ho you doin? I said.
"My bro, long time no see. I am well not too good." He said with gloomy face.
"So what with your sad face?" I said.
"Well, to make it short now i bankrupted and broke with a lot of debt still need to pay. I closed all my business and sell all my asset and inventory to pay some of my debt to the bank. And now i am going back living with parents." He said.
"Hhhmmm, i see. Well i am really sorry for your losses. I am really wanted to help you but you know because of this pandemic situation i am struggling too in my business. But i will help you as much as i can." I said.
"Thanks bro, the reason i meet you today is just to talk so i can lifted my heavy burden a little bit." He said.
"For sure man, for sure i am here to talk and listed. So tell me more what you think and feel." I said.
"You see, when i started my business there's little voice deep inside my heart telling to start the business in smaller scale without any debt but my head telling me that i should start it big with big bank loan so i can earning more bigger. Unfortunately i listen and follow my head instead my heart. Debt is like any leverage its good when the economy is in good condition but it turn out to be a real killer in bad economy. If i was listening to my heart instead of my head my business probably still running today and i can live comfortably. By listening to my head i get greedy and get burned." He said.
"Well, its all already happened so i think the best you can do is to learn from it. You are still young and healthy i am very certain that you can start all over again from zero. And of course always trust your heart more than your head." I said.
"I will man, i will man..." He said.
And we talk a lot more into the night.
So guys what we can learn from this is that we should learn to listen and trust our heart more than our head. On the plus side if we follow our heart we will enjoy our journey our process and get rewarded.
And always be really really careful when using leverage (debt) in your business and (margin) in your trading. Avoid it if you can to lower your risk.
So lets get back into main story.
As always before i go to my daily quest i always check the market to see the price trend. Today card price trend is down so its give opportunity for buyer to get card at cheaper price. I also check my rental card to see if it need rental price adjustment.
Today is my lucky day because i get water daily quest, which mean i can use my DJINN OSHANNUS card to finished it. I finished my daily water quest in just a few minutes. I got 15 DEC as my daily quest reward its not much but i am so happy, why? Because i can use my DJINN OSHANNUS card and enjoy every moment of it. I am using my all time favorite DJINN OSHANNUS card which give satisfying feeling.
So guys that's enough for today. I wish you good luck on your splinterlands journey. See you on my next post and thank you so much for reading.
Sincerely,
