WHY u do WHAT u do?

a
Who does not want success in life? Who does not want money and fame? Who does not want to be popular and famous? All want but few make it. All dream but few accomplish. All have the same time and opportunities but only why few excel in life. Having same time and opportunities in hand we do not know what destiny holds in store for us. With effort, hard work, sacrifice, perseverance and planning/method/strategy all can taste the sweetness of success. In pursuit of success and happiness we cannot pretend to be working. Remember there are no shortcuts to life. Short cuts only exist on computer's keyboard but not in life. Down the history there is no one who came up in life on shortcuts. If so that would not last but would cost much.  

Unfortunately, Pretense is a common sickness in every public sphere, from Politicians to Public, Parents to children, Teachers to students, Husbands to Wives and Bosses to clients. It is a fact pretense works in some situation but not in all situations. Unfortunately it is so common that we lose the sense of understanding the consequences that lurk around. Moms pretend to bring the moon while feeding the babies. Dads convince the toddlers to prevent going into darkness saying there hides a thief and Politicians promise to win the elections and etc.

Actually, we are not the problem but the method is! Right methods will yield right results. Stalwarts like Dr B R Ambedkar, St John Bosco, A P J Kalam, St Mother Teresa, Sachin Tendulkar, M S Dhoni, Virat Kohli and Faithfulness of our our Parents to each other for years despite hurdles are examples set before us. In life we meet so many people who do not make any impact on us but few who do because they follow a different method. It is better late than never to realize and rectify the past mistakes of life in order to make a life meaningful and peaceful for oneself and for the others. 

Every young person must see not only with eyes but with mind. Instead of playing a blame game one needs to accept the situation and from there move on with effort, hard work, planning and with a positive outlook. We need self-motivation, honesty, strategy to move on in the pursuit of success. It is true there is no alternative to hard work. Aim to the sky and reach the heights of success becoming soldiers and commanders of life. We must ask right questions. The problem is that we don't ask questions so we don't have answers. When we have a WHY the WHAT becomes easy to figure out. We must therefore, know WHY we do WHAT we do. Remember, we don't need to pretend in doing  something because we have a WHY we do WHAT we do. 

     




Patterns in Life

All of us have some or the other patterns of doing something in someway. Some patterns are acquired in childhood and while other patterns are developed as adults. The fact is that we are our patterns. Rene Descartes says 'I THINK THEREFORE I EXIST.' It is although an ego centered
but the there is truth in that philosophical affirmation. Patterns are nothing but thinking, believing and behaving. Some patterns are the result of fear which turn out to be negative and unhealthy. While other patterns are acquired in love, support and acceptance which turn out to be positive. As children unknowingly a lot us us acquire laziness, procrastination, anger, rebelliousness, loneliness and disinterest in others, low self-esteem, fear of people and works, poor self-confidence and the list goes endless. From where did these poor and unhealthy attitudes are acquired and to the extent that they are now bahavioers, babits and addictions. As children perhaps we were told repeatedly to believe that we couldn't do, couldn't study and couldn't win. Who put this undesired behaviour in us. Such patterns are unconsciously set triggered by others and set by oneself. Therefore it is one's duty to identify these unhealthy patterns and make effort unconsciously to unbind them and see the result beyond wonder and surprize. The same principle applies for those who acquired healthy patterns as children. They outperform others in their respective zone because they were given friendly, healthy and conducive atmosphere to grow in confidence, courage and support. As adults they yield greater benefits in communication, time management, self-confidence in terms of both work and career. It is better than late than never to unbind and rectify unhealthy patterns of lie and in time and with effort we can come out with flying colours in study talents and work.
