FOOD FOR THOUGHT

VICTORY AND DEFEAT IN REALITY ARE STATE OF MIND.  ONE CAN CHOOSE TO KEEP ON FIGHTING EVEN UNDER ODD SITUATIONS DUE TO VICTORY MIND SET AND ON THE OTHER HAND ONE CAN CHOOSE DEFEAT EVEN UNDER THRIVING SITUATIONS DUE TO BEATING MIND SET. IT'S ALL ABOUT PERSPECTIVE, WHAT ONE SEES IN GIVEN SITUATION, HOW ONE PERCEIVES CIRCUMSTANCES, WHICH DECISION ONE ACTS UPON, WHY FACTOR - DRIVING-MOTIVATING FORCE, HOW ONE WINS OVER DISAPPOINTMENT, DISCOURAGEMENT, DEJECTION, GLOOMINESS, DISORIENTATION, DEMORALIZATION, HOW ONE REMAINS DEVOTED, ENTHUSIASTIC, ENERGETIC, FOCUSED, OPTIMISTIC, ENCOURAGED, JOYOUS, BALANCED AND ELIMINATING - TERMINATING DARKNESS, ENCOURAGING -  TRUSTING BRIGHTNESS, HAPPINESS, LOVE, COURAGE, CREATIVITY, COMPASSION, HUMILITY, FACING REALITY. THE KEY SECRET TO SUCCESS IS TO EMPOWER VICTORY MIND SET.

THE ONLY THING WE ARE ABLE TO DO ABOUT THINGS WHICH ARE NOT IN OUR CONTROL IS TO WORRY, NO MATTER HOW HARD WE WANT TO CHANGE AND TAKE OVER, WE WOULD FINALLY FIND OURSELF HELPLESS.  WORRY WILL NOT LEAD US ANYWHERE. FINALLY WE WILL HAVE TO GIVE UP ON THE THINGS. WE FORGET TO UNDERSTAND ONE THING IS THAT WHATEVER WE CAN'T CONTROL IS MEANT TO HAPPEN AND FOR GOOD IN LONG RUN, FOR OUR BETTER FUTURE AND ONLY  TIME WILL REVEAL THE SAME. INSTEAD OF CHANGING OUR FOCUS, WE MUST MOVE FORWARD AND GROW IN WHAT'S MEANT FOR US.

TO SUCCEED ONE MUST KEEP FOCUS ON THE CHOSEN PATH. FOCUS BRINGS DISCIPLINE, DISCIPLINE OF DOING THINGS CONSISTENTLY LEADING TO PERSISTENCE. PERSISTENCE LEADS TO CONTINUOUS INNOVATION, IMPROVEMENT AND URGE OF DELIVERING BETTER WITH ADDITION OF VALUE. CONSISTENT VALUE ADDITION BUILDS PROFICIENCY WHICH LEADS TO GREATNESS. JOURNEY TO GREATNESS IS NEVER-ENDING, IT'S A CONTINUOUS PROCESS AND KEY IS TO REMAIN FOCUSED ON ONE'S PATH IN ANY GIVEN SITUATION.

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 !!

PREPAREDNESS IS A MENTAL STATE WHICH ENVISIONS FOR THE WORST & BEST. STATE IN WHICH ALL THE PERSPECTIVES ARE CONSIDERED WISELY WITH ASSESSMENT OF POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS. TO ATTAIN SUCH STATE REQUIRES GROUND LEVEL WORK, ABILITY TO THINK OPENLY ON POSSIBILITY, ABILITY TO REMAIN CREATIVE TO FIND THE POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS. THESE QUALITIES CAN BE CULTIVATED PURELY WITH FOCUS & DEDICATION.

ONE NEEDS TO BE PASSIONATE ENOUGH TO EXECUTE TASK IN HAND WHICH REQUIRES FOCUS, DEEP WORK & DEDICATION. ONE MUST DETACH ONESELF FROM THE END RESULTS TO TRULY ENJOY THE PROCESS. THE END RESULTS OR THE FRUITS ARE NOT IN ONE'S CONTROL AS FRUITS ARE BASED ON INTERNAL AS WELL AS EXTERNAL FACTORS . ONE CAN NOT OVER POWER THESE EXTERNAL FACTORS. ONE MUST SATISFY ONESELF BY CONTROLLING INTERNAL FACTORS TO THE EXTENT THAT END RESULTS WOULD NOT HAVE ANY EMOTIONAL IMPLICATIONS IN ONE'S LIFE WITH THE CONFIDENCE OF DELIVERING THE BEST FOR GIVEN TASK OR INSTANCE .

WHAT ONE BELIEVES ABOUT ONESELF IS ONE'S REALITY. OUR BELIEF SYSTEM DEFINES OUR LIFE PATH. TO DO RIGHT THINGS AND TO ADD MAGIC & STARS IN LIFE PATH (STORY), ONE MUST WORK ON ONE'S BELIEFS STRATEGICALLY. ONE  MUST NURTURE IT WITH LOVE , WARMTH , PASSION , PEACE , COMPASSION , HUMILITY , HUMANITY , SPIRITUALITY , NEUTRALITY , RESPONSIBILITY , HONESTY , ENTHUSIASM , JUSTICE , NEETI , DHARMA , COURAGE , TRUST , ADVENTURE , RENUNCIATION , HARMONY , WHOLENESS , FOCUS , POWER , ABUNDANCE . IT'S A CONTINUOUS PROCESS TO WRITE, RE-WRITE, IMBIBE & REPLENISH BELIEFS WITH THESE SETS OF VALUES.

OUR CONSCIOUS KNOW WHAT'S BEST FOR US AND ALWAYS SHOWS US THE RIGHT PATH, PATH TO SUCCESS. BUT OUR IGNORANT MIND DOES NOT ALLOW US TO SURRENDER, MAKES US TO DWELL IN SEARCH OF SO CALLED PERFECT PATH & PERFECT TIME. WITH THESE QUESTS IN MIND WE FAIL TO FOCUS ON PRESENT & FAIL TO DO WHAT IS RIGHT FOR US. WHEN IGNORANT MIND & EGO JOIN HANDS, UNKNOWINGLY IT PREPARES US TOWARDS DARKNESS. BEST SOLUTION IS WE MUST LISTEN TO & ACT UPON OUR INNER VOICE.

WORRYING IS LIKE A ROCKING CHAIR. IT WILL GIVE YOU SOMETHING TO DO, BUT IT WON'T GET YOU ANYWHERE. WORRYING WON'T CHANGE THE END RESULTS. IT'S ALWAYS BETTER TO DO AND GIVE OUR BEST AND MOVE ON THE NEXT WITHOUT WORRYING ABOUT RESULTS OR SITUATION. THIS IS KEY FOR MENTAL PEACE AND ALLOWS US TO FOCUS, TO BE PRODUCTIVE, TO BE EFFICIENT AND TO BE EFFECTIVE.

LEARNING IS A CONTINUOUS PROCESS, WE NEED TO KEEP OURSELVES UPGRADED. FOR WHICH WE NEED TO INVEST OUR TIME, ENERGY, FOCUS, MONEY IN GAINING THE KNOWLEDGE AND UNFOLDING IT'S LEARNING TO BEST OF OUR UNDERSTANDING AND APPLYING IT TO BEST OF OUR ABILITIES. KEY IS BOTH UNDERSTANDING AND APPLICATION, BUT RETURNS WILL DEPEND UPON HOW MUCH WE ARE WILLING TO SHARE & SPREAD ACROSS !!
