FOOD FOR THOUGHT

OFTEN ONE GETS ATTACHED TO ONE'S SUCCESS, SO MUCH SO THAT THE SAME SUCCESS LIMITS ONE'S POTENTIAL AND BELIEFS. THERE COULD BE NUMBER OF REASONS BEHIND SUCH BEHAVIOR, WHICH COULD BE, LACK OF CONFIDENCE, OVER CONFIDENCE, FEAR OF FAILURE, LACK OF CREATIVITY, LACK OF CLARITY, OBSESSION OF ACHIEVEMENTS, LACK OF ENTHUSIASM. AFTER REACHING ONE MILESTONE, THERE IS ALWAYS GOING TO BE A FALL BEFORE REACHING OUT TO NEXT MILESTONE, ONE HAS TO RECOGNIZE AND UTILIZE THIS FALL CORRECTLY AND ENCASE OUT OF IT FOR THE NEXT MILESTONE. IF ONE IS AFRAID TO RECOGNIZE FALL AND PRESUMES TO REMAIN IN THAT OLD ZONE, WILL MISS OUT THE GREAT AT THE COST OF GOOD. ONE HAS TO LET GO CURRENT STATE EVEN IF ITS GOOD, TO REACH OUT TO NEXT LEVEL OF STATE FOR ACHIEVING GREAT. CHANGE IS INEVITABLE, ONE HAS TO KEEP  ON LEARNING - RELEARNING DURING THE FALL AND PREPARE FOR THE NEXT PEEK. THIS IS A CONTINUOUS PROCESS, THERE IS NO HALT, THERE IS NO STAGNATION, LIFE MEANS GROWTH, LIFE MEANS PROGRESS AND PROGRESS MEANS H...

SUCCESS & FAILURE BOTH ARE THE OUTCOME OR RESULT OF THE ACTIONS TAKEN. BOTH OUTCOME IS A CONTINUOUS PROCESS AND MUST NOT BE CONNECTED TO EGO OR INDIVIDUALITY. ATTACHMENT TO THESE OUTCOMES CONSTANTLY KEEPS US TO LIVE IN PAST RATHER THAN IN THE FUTURE. SUCCESS & FAILURE ARE OCCURRENCE HAPPENING CONTINUOUSLY WITH CONTINUOUS ACTIONS. THESE ARE SET OF LESSONS TEACHING US TO MOVE FORWARD AND IMPROVE FROM TIME TO TIME FOR BETTER OUTCOMES. IT SHOULD NOT MATTER WHETHER IT HAS POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE CHARGES, IT SHOULD NOT AFFECT ONE'S BELIEFS IN ANYWAYS. ONE MUST REMAIN NEUTRAL SPECIALLY TO FAILURES, CONVERTING THESE  FAILURES DRIVING FORCE TO ACHIEVE BETTER.

IT'S A HUMAN NATURE, OUT OF EXCITEMENT OR COMPRESSION, ONE JUMPS INTO CERTAIN TASK OR WORK OR ACTIVITY, BUT SOONER OR LATER GETS ATTACHED TO ANOTHER TASK AND LEAVES THE PREVIOUS ONE INCOMPLETE. SLOWLY ONE KEEPS ON REPEATING SUCH ACT WITHOUT EVEN BEEN AWARE AND IT BECOMES HABIT. FOR ANY TASK OR WORK OR ACTIVITY ONE HAS TO EITHER GIVE 0% OR 100% , THERE IS NOTHING IN BETWEEN. ONE MUST START A TASK WITH 100% COMMITMENT, FOCUS AND WILL, MUST NOT GET DISTRACTED OR CARRIED AWAY BETWEEN TASKS. SOON IT BECOMES HABIT, A HABIT WITH 100% AWARENESS . ONE MUST START TO COMPLETE THE TASK, ONE MUST FINISH THROUGH THE FINISHING LINE !!

IN REAL LIFE, ONE JUST RUNS FROM ONE MILESTONE TO ANOTHER WITHOUT ANY CONTENTMENT.  SUCCESS IN TODAY'S WORLD IS MORE OR LESS CONFINED TO THE MATERIALISTIC GOALS AND THAT MOMENTS LASTS FOR SHORT TIME BEFORE ONE MOVES BACK TO ANOTHER RACE FOR THE NEXT MILESTONE. DEEP DOWN WITHIN ONE IS ALWAYS SEEKING FOR HAPPINESS. BUT ONE DOES NOT FIND TRUE HAPPINESS IN ANY OF ITS ACHIEVEMENTS AS HAPPINESS IS CONFUSED WITH & MEASURED AGAINST SUCCESS & FAILURE. SUCCESS IS BASICALLY ACHIEVEMENT OF DESIRES, SET GOALS, EXPECTATIONS, ITS ALL ABOUT REACHING OUR TO WHAT ONE WANT. WHILE HAPPINESS IS  A BLISS BEYOND DESIRES & EXPECTATIONS. HAPPINESS IS CONTENTMENT OF WHAT ONE  HAS OR GETS WITHOUT ANY ATTACHMENT TO THE RESULTS . TRUE & PURE HAPPINESS IS IN DETACHMENT AND STILL EFFECTIVELY DEPLOYING OUR KARMA

SIMPLICITY IS NEUTRALITY. IT DOES NOT PROVOKE ANY NEGATIVE EMOTIONS WITHIN & IN OTHERS MIND. NEGATIVE EMOTIONS LIKE PRIDE, JEALOUSY, COMPARISONS, CRUELTY, RUDENESS, ATTACHMENTS, IGNORANCE, COMPLEXITY. SIMPLICITY IS HUMILITY, DETACHMENT &  cOMPASSION. iT BRINGS CLARITY, CLARITY FOR SOPHISTICATION, CREATIVITY, BRILLIANCE, INTELLIGENCE TO CHOOSE RIGHT PATH, PATH TO DIVINE SIMPLICITY.
