People Who Light Their Candles and Cover Them with a Bowl Often Showcase These 19 Limiting Habits: 1

 

To light your candle means to put on your light. Your light is meant to shine and not to be hiden. When you hide your light, you will not be able to see with it. You cannot do a meaningful thing when your light is not shinning as it should be. Your light is your talent, skill, ability, intelligence, knowledge, experience and attitude. They are the gift that you are endowed with. These gifts are the light of the individual person and they are real meant to be used and not to keep them unused. The process of using these gift is what is meant by let your light shine. Your light is meant to bring you out as well if used properly. If you must succeed, your light must shine and not covered with a bowl. The bowl represents any thing that prevent your light from shinning the way it should be. Here are some reasons most people light their candles and cover them with a bowl.

1.     1. They have no dreams to pursue: Most people pursue their desires and not their dreams. For most people, their desires are their dreams why because they cannot differentiate between their dreams and their desires. Dreams are the most cherished desires, they are not corrupt but desires can be corrupt. People love to go after their corrupt desires more than their normal desires.

The more you go after your corrupt desires the more you showcase yourself as someone who have no dream to chase. Your corrupt desires or passions are not your dream. Your dreams cannot make you poor if you follow them. But you corrupt desires are strong enough to make you poor.

Those who have no dreams to pursue always go after their corrupt desires. By going after your corrupt desires, you are going after your illusions as well. When you go after your corrupt desires instead of your dreams you are indeed covering your light from shinning. 

2.     2. They do not know exactly what they want: Another reason why people do not allowed their light to shine is the issue or problem of not knowing what they actually want. They cannot filter their needs from their wants. They cannot actually separate the less important things from the much important things.

 Everything is desirable. But the truth is everything is not desirable. Some of things are less desirable. If you do not know exactly what you really want, you will end up covering your light with a bowl. You will be doing the unnecessary things which prevents your light from shinning.

3.     3. They have nothing to do: When you have nothing to do, putting on your candle will be meaningless to you. Not having any thing to do makes you become lazier. By being lazy you will not be able to engage your duties properly. Not having anything to do can be implied to mean putting your pleasure first before your duty that is why they have nothing to do.

 If your pleasure dominates you more, you will be indisposed to actions. You will exihibit disinclination to work. You will even ignore and forget your responsibilities. When you have nothing to do, you are covering your light from shinning.

Your light shinning does not include doing the wrong things and doing less important things. In most cases, when you have nothing to do, you will end up doing the wrong things which will prevent you from shinning.

4.     4. They love doing everything except what they are supposed to do: Another situation that prevent most people from shinning is the situation where people love doing every other things that interest them but the things they should do, they will be avoiding them. When you are not doing the things you should be doing, you will prevent yourself from shinning the way you should.

That which you should do is what will make you to shine the way you should. The failure not to do the things you should do is why you are not shinning. By doing every other things you are really covering your light with a bowl.

5.     5. Self-distrust or diffidence: Self-distrust or diffidence is the lack of confidence in yourself.  Distust is lack of self-confidence. It is doubt of sufficiency, reality, or sincerity; want of confidence, faith, or reliance; as, distrust of one’s power, authority, will, purposes, schemes, etc. Going by the meaning of distrust above, when you have no confidence in yourself, you will doubt your sufficiency, reality, power, authority, purposes etc.

You no longer believed in your power to make your dreams come alive. Your reality is negatively affected by your doubt in yourself and in your purposes. Self- distrust prevent your light from shinning the way it should. Every time you are doubting yourself, you are covering your light with a bowl.

6.     6. Loss of hope: Having hope keeps one’s light shinning brightly. It enables you to keep doing the things that you should do or be doing. It strengthens you to continue doing the needful. It pushes to keep your light burning. Hope helps you to see clearly where you are going and what to do to get to where you are going to.

But when you lose your hope, you will definitely cover your light with a bowl and the light will not be able to shine any further. Each time will lose our hope, we become weak to do certain things we are capable of doing. This prevent us from shinning the way we should.

7.     7. They cannot fight their battle till the end:  To fight till the end is a great quality of perseverance determination and of faith and of hope. Your ability to fight till the end is what makes you to shine the way you should. Fighting till the end keeps your light burning hard. When you cannot fight your battle till the end, what you will be doing is to cover your light a bowl.

Your light on longer shine to show you the way to go. The reason most people cover their light with a bowl is that they cannot fight their battle till the end. The inability to fight till the end will prevent you from shinning brighter or from not shinning at all.

Most people cannot fight their battles till the end because such battles are distasteful or depressing or disagreeable or unpleasant. So they abandon them and withdrew from doing justice to those battles. The more you withdrew from fighting your battles till the end, the less your light shines and the least you shine.

8.     8. They over depend on other people:  When you are too over depending on other people to do your things for you or before you can do your things is really a big problem. When those people are not available you will become handicap in doing your things.

When you are too depending on other people you will lose both your physical and inner strengths. Your skills will not improve, you will not be able to discover your talents, your mentality will be poor and you may even doubt yourself all these happen when you are over depending on other people to solve your problems for you.

The more you are too depending on others, the more your light will not be able to shine the way it should. When you are too depending on people you are actually covering your light with a bowl.         

9.     9. Procrastination with dilatoriness: Procrastination is the act of procrastinating; putting off or delaying or deferring an action to a later time. It is slowness as a result or consequence of not getting around to it. When you are supposed to do your work or duty, you keep delaying it or keep postponning the work. Instead of going though your problems, you are too or very busy going around your problems.

The more you procrastinate in doing the things that you should do, the more the problems keep piling and waiing for you. If you do not do it, no one will do it for you. Procrastination prevents you from shinning the way you should. When you are procrastinating, you are covering your light with a bowl.

10. 10. They love giving excuses or complain on why certain things cannot be done: Some times, we love to give excuses of why certain things cannot be done or performed. We try to free ourselves from blames of not doing the things we should do.

We give excuse of why we ignore our responsibilities and why we escape from doing the things we should do. These excuses or complains would not save you. When people give excuses, it is because they cannot fight their excuses or resistances pumping in their mind or head.

You must learn to do the things you should do whether those things are tedious, displeasing, distasteful, difficult, disagreeable, unpleasant or depressing. Whether those works make you uncomfortable and unhappy.

Until you get down doing the things you should be doing, you will not be able to shine. Remember, you are meant to shine. But by giving excuses or complaining, you are covering your light from shinning or with a bowl.

Happy reading.
