People talk about having a 'light-bulb moment'. A moment when something switches on in your mind, a torch is shone in front of you and for years you haven't been able to make out the reality, until now. My school life is always the best time of our lives. Furthermore, it is the only time where I can meet my friends. My School time is the only time which I enjoy a lot. I get to play many games. Also, I get to study my favorite subject. Above all, I get to play with my group of friends and spend a good time with them. In the year 2014 just like you ,I had lost everything and by everything I mean everything. But unlike you-I did’t have the strenghth to get back up fight again. So I thought quit was the only option. AS you grow up, you will set up some goals and you start to dream about that. In order to strengthen your skills, knowledge, courage, you will follow the person who is most inspiring for your life. He is a role model for your career. Whenever you see him and you listen his words, you will get a strong feeling that I can do anything in my life. So he is MOST INSPIRING PERSON IN YOUR LIFE.
Well I also have most Inspiring person in my life. I used to see him every day and whenever I feel bored or fed up I used listen his words. Whenever I listen his words, I feel that I can do anything in my life and I will be very happy. I have never seen such a man in my life. And his life story makes me feel strong.
Well, how many of us are most successful in our lives? I don’t know others reply but mine will be “Am Not”. The Reason behind this, I have not achieved what I want to be. During my childhood days I used to dream a lot, but now I feel feared to dream because as you grow up you will realize the practical world. I want to be a SAP Consultant (Functional) in my life. Becoming a consultant is not an easy job. But if you think so, it will be hard only. So In order to gain confidence and courage to do things, I will always look at him and I would say “I can do anything in my life”.
In my view, you need to find out the reason yourself behind your failure. No outsider can help you.
See, the reason for my failure will differ with yours. It is because, it all depends how I define success myself. Everyone of us has a line of thought in terms of success. May be I consider one step in the ladder is success for me, may be two steps for you, may be three steps for another.
Anyway, I will put forward the failure and success in the way I look at it.
See, God has given me birth as a human being, which is considered as the highest creation. That way, I am already born as a successful living being. I have the potential to do whatever I like to do. The whole world is open for me. There is absolutely no barrier in my movement. My whole body, mind, brain etc. are fully in working order.
Then what are the barriers in my progress ?
Some of them are listed below.
I feel inferior to others with respect to my position in society.
I feel inferior with respect to money.
I feel inferior when I compare my child with others children.
I feel inferior when I look at others house, building.
There is no end to above.
In other words, I always stay in a negative mindset. The attitude towards life has gone deep inside me, and very well settled inside me safely. Anything I start to do, a sense of failure grips me. More and more, I try to bring positive feeling, more and more negativity enters into. It is because, I am fighting within myself . One side of myself is dragging behind, another side is forcefully planning to go ahead with success.
This inside fighting is the very cause of my failure.
What is the path to come out of it ?
The path is understanding the very fact behind failure. It is to be clearly understood, feel it, accept it. Initially, it will be difficult. Negativity , out of past knowledge, advises, belief has settled inside the mind in such a corner that it may not be possible to trace them and then throw them out fully. Hence, it is necessary to do meditation regularly. This will help you to maintain a calm mind. The ripples of disturbance will come down.
Then, past knowledge does not haunt you any more. You may plan your work with fresh mind. Please make a realistic plan, keeping failures in mind. Keep your limitation, weakness into account. A close follow up, say day to day , will help you in retuning your plan.
I had read a quotation.
“ Failure is the pillar of success”. It is a stepping stone to success.
It works , if you accept your failure with open hands. It works if you are alert every moment. It works , if you learn from failure and take corrective action.
Additionally, please stay alert to your own intuition, which your heart speaks to you time to time. My grandfather(work as a light bulb in my life) has been the person who inspired me a lot. Of course every single person comes with some drawbacks but he was the most positive person I came across. He had this amazing quality of facing everything that came his way with positive airs. He suffered a lot in his life. He is the hardest most dedicated man I have ever met. I look up to him and he is truly my hero. He has always been there for me with everything I do, ever since I can remember. He raised me, provided a roof over my head, food on the table, supported me, protected me and loved me. He’s help me through so much and has helped form the person I am today. Then my grandfather again inspiring me and always works as “light bulb “ of my life ,after completing my garadutio,he planned to send me “Kerala”,from” Punjab “to “Kerala” journey was fantastic. Kerala, with its blessed beauty of nature, long and silver-haired with colorful clips of fishes and a black mountain cap, standing in a green curly dress full of colorful butterflies and glowing flowers on it, mesmerizing eyes with calm and peaceful nature gifts us a pleasant world. I was a shy and reserved character for strangers in the outer world but I was open with my grandparents just because of the serenity they made me feel by giving the freedom to express my feelings and wishes. When I told my parents I want to join my higher study my parents objected strongly. Their initial reaction was, “we won’t have any income, NO!”, “Starting a higher study is very risky, you shouldn’t do it!”, Then my grandparents help me lot ,work as a light bulb in my life, inspiring me lot. With the help of them in “Kerala” I started college again. My grandfather always told me “If you lose some, you trust it's because you are about to win more. If there is ... Turning the wheel today it will lead to a better tomorrow.”
