Chiselling Ourselves

It’s never going to be a MYSTERY anymore….

Every time when think about motivation , I always ended up in a situation that exposes my own problem rather than someone else. So Here I am, pushing self-help substance , appearing individuals how to live more successfully. At that point I start my investigate and realize I have got many showstoppers. This is one of those articles. It is all about the seeing yourself as shown in above image. As well regularly, it is overlooked or mixed up for something else. Its impacts are tremendous and progressing. Learn to dodge abundance laments , and you will unchain an innovation that was continuously there holding up for you.

Keep in a mind, this is article completely about ourselves or may be yourself. This is not meant for motivation, because I never believe the existence of such a word.

Set our Mind, Ready to Take off as Falcon.

There was a prince who received a special gift from his father, a two radiant beautiful Falcon’s. Prince decided to train those Falcon’s and he given them over to a man who was expert in training falcons. After couple of years, Falcon Trainer informed the prince that one of falcon’s was really doing well. But other one , it had not moved at all from its tree from the very day that he had started training them. After all the frustration due to attempt in making falcon to fly, prince decided to take help from someone who is expert in understanding a nature or birds and ordered his servants to find such a person. One fine day, Prince got surprised by seeing that falcons started flying above the palace. He asked his servants to get the doer of this miracle. Surprisingly, they brought a simple farmer. Prince asked the farmer, how did he achieve that, farmer replied “I Simply Cut the Branch of Tree”.

We are all made to fly and to live with unimaginable talent, but we remaining sit in our comfort zone, not willing to venture out because of fear. But true thing is, the possibilities are countless, remain unidentified. So, most of our life ended up in mediocre instead of excitement. Do you agree fear is stopping you, then what are you waiting for ? Release the Anchor and Ready to Move

Will you able to avoid mistakes always?

How many of us made a mistake in academics, in office, in family or in any place? Have we ever regretted for it after mistake ? But have you noticed; life allows us to correct those mistakes like a eraser attached with pencil? Of course, some mistakes cannot be corrected, and impacts are bad. So, what we need? A hand which helps us to handle the mistakes or may be a situation. First, making mistake is our nature, accept mistake is our culture and correcting it shows our stature . Isn’t it? I do not know who said it, but I agree completely. Basically, I believe making , accepting, and correcting mistakes is a LIFE . What do you think?

Simple Broken Rock Vs Statue.

I want you to think about few great personalities stories we came across in our life . I will give you a challenge we remember them only because of their ability to fix the obstacles.

Poverty gives us WALT DISNEY, Chronic Depression give us Abraham Lincoln, Learning Difficulties gives us Winston, Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) gives us Stephen Hawking. Polio and Paralysis attack give us Franklin D Roosevelt. Hearing Inability gives us Hellen Keller, Child Abuse gives us Oprah Winfrey and many more.

Life always challenges you , because it believes in you more than you believe in yourself. Challenges(not a difficulties) always makes you a stronger, grow and develop us. Soon Beautiful butterfly comes out of Cocoon. Remember if we are not ready to accept the chiselling, you will always a simple useless rock rather than a beautiful statue.

Balanced Approach vs Self Made.

Have you ever noticed, so much of our life always depends on being centred and not bending towards both ends? All the highly succeeded persons always credit their achievement to their energised and ambition environment, efforts, and ventures. Because they believe that is their jostle alone that has brought them to where they are in the society. In fact, I sometimes felt they are haughty in attitude and tone. After all the struggle and war, they have moved into a good position in society (One of the ends). There are also a people who credit their success to a right people or opportunity that came in their way, may be a KARMA or LUCK. These people are highly honest in acknowledging someone for their success. I can say “They are BLESSED” (Another end). Success is something occupies BALANCE in action we performed. Directing our independence, will, choice in a correct way brings SUCCESS. Those who believe they are dependent with others they must balance their modesty with their self-esteem. Right ? Unless you drive your car, Google Map will never help you right? We should believe everybody have a important role in someone journey of success. Success is a combination of belief in our worthiness and insignificance experience. Balanced approach will always give you success along with a satisfaction.

Do not Hurry or Do not Worry !!!

There lived a farmer , who planted a spinach and mango seeds and cared for them well. Farmer was delighted to see spinach quickly grows out from the earth with bright green colour after a few days. But he highly disappointed as nothing come out from the mango seed. But he never gave up. After a year’s spinach sprouts out vibrant, luxuriant , so greenish and the mango seed nothing came out . One more year crossed, still he did not quit. One more year passed , farmer saw a tiny a sprout emerges from the earth, and it is so tiny compared to spinach, but in a next six-month mango tree shot up to its height. What do you Observe here? In those 3 to 4 years mango growing its root and gave it all what it needs to survive in upcoming years. Isn’t it true LIFE does not give you a challenge which you cannot handle? Take a difficulty which you are facing now, know for sure that you have a capacity to handle it.

Remember all our time during struggles , you been developing like a mango tree. Both Spinach and Mango are different , but it makes a life beautiful, healthier by serving a different purpose.

Wait for your TIME , you will reach your destiny , Your Destiny, not someone is else. Remember that India is almost 10 hours ahead of USA, but that does not make India faster and USA slower. So, relax wait for your TIME, you neither early nor too late, just on TIME.

Blaming the Situation.

Luck or Destiny ? Whether I have got a role of success person or not ? Or Do I need to work on hard work? So, in my ideology , Situation that comes to you which are beyond our control. Did we choose our parents, or your face or your beauty, No Isn’t it? It is a destiny . No one look as good as their social media profile, and no one look ugly as a government ID card, right? So, your situations are destiny, and you did not choose them, and it simply came to you. But Response to my situation is my CHOICE and response is not a destiny. Situation remains what they are , but choice is not, responses are not.

What is your SEED.

Have you ever felt nothing worked out after many attempts or hard work? Please remember when GOD or anything which you believe says YES to you, it will give you what you want and if it says NO, then it will give you something better, if it’s says WAIT , then it will give you the best. What if our land doesn’t suit for planting a wheat , go for veggies, or go for flowers? Land may be fertile at some point, but seed not known. So, Discover your SEED.

Stopping the Interference.

A great sportsman was asked, how he manage a coaching skill till at the age of 67. He replied, ball has no idea about how old I am. I will concentrate only 20 to 30 % in hitting a ball and rest are huge. Psychologically, that a key factor to perform well in sports or in life are one and the same, its ability to control your quality and quantity. In simple words, Controlling Dialogue which you hear in your heart by simply stopping interference which you are hearing inside will make you a success.

Limiting Vs Empowering Ourselves.

A famous quote says ,

If Everybody can do it, I certainly do it. If Nobody can do it , then I must do it.

I also heard a quote says,

If Everybody can do it, let them do it, If Nobody can do it, then how can I do it.

Just because you have joined a good college, school or a job or a company you do not become expert. Success of a organization is not your personal success. You must learn, work hard, cooperate focus on the right process and craft your own success. Just because your Horoscope match, your relationship does not go deep. Anything you take either you must limit yourself or empower yourself.

Soda or water … Why or how …

There are always a people who are out of control. Can we stop someone who is sledging you? I remember one of our family friends had a situation. I usually call him uncle. His daughter had a fight with his husband. After a fight she call her mother (Aunty) and said that she cannot be able to handle her husband and she need some changes at least for 2 weeks. So, she decides to stay with her parents . But Mother replied , no dear you should face the situation, you please stay there, and I will come at your place for 2 months! So funny !!!.

Are our situations in our control many times ? No right ? Just think of whether you want to be soda which always foams up after shaking it or stay calm as water after a stimulating or complaining you. I know many will say soda was tested under pressure while water is not. I agree 100% , but what is complaining is all about , it comprises of circumstance, difficulty, Conflict, Fear, but Response is something combines your action and attitude right. We are always having choice which are free to decide, and we are in between complaining and response.

The Greatest personality in the world not born in maternity ward. They are born in choices and responses.

This is one of the inspiring and beautiful stories I have heard. There is a monastery where you allowed to speak just two words after completing every 5 years and rest of the time, they should follow a silence. One day, Guru of that monastery asked a monk who joined 5 years ago to say his two words. He said, “HARD BED”. Guru laughed sarcastically and ask him to maintain the silence for rest 5 years. Again 5 years passed, this time monk says, “STINKY FOOD”. Again 5 years passed, this time monk says, “I QUIT”. Guys please remember , in our life, to be in a higher purpose, we should face inconvenience voluntarily. Of course, monk may live in comfort zone before he joined monastery, it may be hard for him to focus on what we are doing and stop complaining . Quit is not a right solution always, just think of why you started doing that initially. True Power or Potential always lies out of your comfort zone.

Journey of Life is important.

No right things are always right, and no wrong things are always wrong. I remember some years back , I read a story of 5 friends who experienced beautiful moments of their life. On one of their trekking , they got lost in vast forest and they were trying to find the way out. First person said that he going to follow his intuition and he decided to go left from where they are standing. The second man said that he decided to go right. Third man said that he decided to go back in the same way that they came across and he believed that is the safest way. Fourth person said that he decides to walk forward as he believed that he is on right track. But fifth man said, I will climb up in tree to find the right path or shortest path. And they all started their journey in the path decided .

We may think Fifth man is right . Since he rises above the situation and see a larger picture. This decision sounds good right to most of us. Yes of course but there is a twist in story. Let understand them. Finding the own path gaining you a different experience. It just not about right or wrong. First man reaches a town after a while. A man who went right got a situation to fight with wild ones , but now he is experienced in forest trek. The man who went back joins with the next group of trekkers and what happened, he got a friend right ? Man, who went straight found a farm and had a nice time and man on a tree found a shortest path.

Journey exposed each one of them in own unique ways. Life is an exam , if might wait if you copy others, you cannot live with others experience. Your current chapter is not same as someone’s current chapter.

You can learn from others , but not live with others experience.

What’s your value.

Do you think you are not recognized for your work? Do you feel bored ? Have you felt you are not a valuable ? If so , what is your value? How do you define it? Will see ….

This is a real incident happened to me. I have got a valuable old camera while cleaning my home. I believe it have a certain value and, I want to check that value. So, I thought to check the resale value of the camera. First, I took the camera to a camera resale and repair shop to check the value of it. After checking my camera, shopkeeper said that he can give me a $100 for this. Then I left from there and moved to a pawn shop to check collateral value of my camera. After seeing my camera, pawn shop owner said, can’t give anything for this scrap. it is not going to be useful for us. Then I went to antique museum where all old things are showcased. I showed that to a manager of the museum , he exclaimed that “ this is priceless , what a quality of leather cover and German made metals” I can give you a million dollars for this. I was really gobsmacked with his words. But I did not sell it still. Do you know why? I do not want to stab the duck before it lays golden egg.

Now I understand , you will be valued if you are in right place. In camera reselling and repair shop, reseller can see only nuts and bolts on that. In pawn shop, for collaterals they will look everything based on market value. But museum where old things are showcased see beyond the material, the emotions, the war behind the camera, people who used the camera, right? If you felt that you are not valued , do not get frustrated , do not felt bored. Seek help from those who see your real value , they may be your senior persons in your office.

There is a no letter that cannot be turned into a book, there is no plant or tree cannot have a medical value, here is no person in the world who does not value. Please remember this in your life.

UNLEASHING THE SECRET…..

So far, we have come across many stories, characters, analogy, place, situation, mistakes, morals, lessons, life, motivation, friendly advice, questions, queries and many more. But what do you infer from this? I believe all these above-mentioned aspects have already been taught to you right ? You may already feel those things, right ? Do you really understand meaning of motivation? Motivation is something which you believe it is came from external objects or persons . Is that right? No, there is no word or term in the world called motivation. Of course, you may say it exist, but it always exists in the form of SELF. We have a word called SELF-MOTIVATION meaning unless you are ready to move on, even God cannot help you.

In above connects if you really noticed well , All the good changes or even mistakes happen only by your response. I may not mention your stories in above, even my stories too, but reality is a secret and common for all …. Friends , this is the secret which I am going to reveal to you.

YOU are the SECRET, YOU are the CAUSE, YOU are the trigger, YOU are the TIME, YOU are your strength, YOU are your weakness, YOU are OBSTACLES.

Be ready to listen your heart, Unless YOU step in , listen in nothing cannot be changed ever. So

UNLEASH YOUR SECRET , UNLEASH YOUR INNER YOU.
