Motivation & Inspiration

Did you ever ask yourself as to who is your limitation? Who tells you what you are capable or incapable of doing? Who guides you all the way so that you can be successful and keep going? My friends, it’s your mind which processes all the definite information and sets limitations not just for ourselves but for others too. I remember a very famous quotation here which says “Only those who risk going too far can probably find out how far one can go”. How far can you go? How far are you capable of going? How long is your journey? All the questions need to be answered by you.

Every person wants to be successful but then success has its own guidelines and principles. You have to think and act. Just thinking will not do and acting without thinking will never make things possible. Others guidelines for success may or may not fit you. So what to do? Read other people’s success stories but think and act differently. Your path and goals are different so your journey will also be different. The time gap and market changes will all play a big role so you cannot copy. Use your brain and always think before acting.

The Year 2015 is coming to an end and so are the worries. We all are ready to welcome New Year 2016 with open arms. I wanted to end this year on a happy note and ignite the spark in some ladies who are preparing to start something of their own this new year. I am writing this article for all those souls who waited long enough and have gathered courage to take 2016 head on. The journey of lady is a different from that of men. We are the ones who build homes, become a mother and look after our babies. We take a break from our work and some even leave their careers just for their families.

I always thought who is beautiful, a person who is just beautiful from outside or a person who is beautiful from inside. A person who is beautiful from outside may not be the same inside, but a person who is graceful from inside has an external beauty which is untouched. The whole world runs after external beauty which fades with time but when we love someone's inner beauty then it lasts for a lifetime.

I say the best way to live your life is by living one day at a time. Plan and execute one work after another and not all at once. The problem with most of us is that we live the past and the future in the present and get unhappy that things are not working. People who work in the present and live in the present are the ones who are achievers in life. You can plan for the future, but then you only have your present day with you. That is something which should be lived best.

Let us first define what is an experience. An experience is something which helps you in learning how to handle the same situation second time in the best possible way or a new situation in a new way since you know how to handle things in life. A person's life is full of experience - good and bad both. You learn from bad ones much more than you learn from the good ones. Good experiences are easily forgotten, but it's the bad ones which stay in your memory. An experience transforms you into a better person.

A Habit is something which we do every day and get used to doing the same thing the same way. Habits can be both good and bad and it is you who decides in which category you want to place everything you are used to doing. Habits are not formed in a day, it takes months to develop a habit. And it takes months to break a bad habit or a habit which you want to change. There are few traits which are common in highly successful people and if you have to be one among them you have to develop some of those habits too.

I remember a very famous quotation on commitment “The moment you commit and quit holding back, all sorts of unforeseen incidents, meetings and material assistance, will rise up to help you. The simple act of commitment is a powerful magnet for help.”

I am a person who does more of self-discovery and try to understand myself by the things I do, the decisions I make and the feelings I experience. Every person has a single life to live and you are the decision maker of your own life. The reigns of your life should only be in your own hands and not in someone else’s hand. Every person on this earth has been gifted a single life to live and no two people can have the same point of view on the same subject. We are bound to be different. Similarly, we all have different priorities in life.
