Be yourself! Be the best...
In this modern era, after lot of struggle people seem to lose their identity. We often find people who are driven like herd of sheep. They lack basic human quality i.e. curiosity. We are the best creation of Lord and we ought to prove ourselves inspite of all adversities. We are ones who are the future. Whether you are a student, a serviceman or a businessman the same rules are applicable to all. We are the creative ones. Our history of glorious Indian Wisdom supports that knowledge, curiosity and understanding is in our DNA. Then what is lacking? What is obstructing us? Why we are still and in a hibernated stage?
The best answer for all these questions and many more of them is that we try to become somebody. We set examples of some person and his prosperity as our target. This leads to misery in life. The person who is your role may be successful in his time and under particular circumstances but it is not guaranteed that the same principles and the same thing apply to you. For understanding this, take the example of all the fingers in your hand. They are not all same but they all are unique. They all have their own purpose. A small child expresses his desire to become an astronaut. Everybody in the house is quite happy. As the child grows he realizes that what he was thinking might be impossible because nobody in the house is ready to believe this. If you think about America and particularly NASA, you can find that most of people who worked in NASA during Apollo mission had someday dreamt about space travel and sending men to moon. After some years they were actually working on Apollo project. This is the greatest secret of life. Be yourself. If you think you can do it, you can really do it. Circumstances, problems and obstacles are nothing for you. They can’t stop you.
First thing to start with is ask yourself. I have experienced this for number of times. Stand in front of a mirror and ask yourself. If the guy in the mirror tells that you are right then do it. Your self conscience is the best judge for you. Whether it is a small decision or a big decision, your conscience will always be correct and he will definitely make you victorious. If you are doing a job or a business, sometimes you may feel that certain things are imposed on you. Don’t worry… it is temporary but don’t betray yourself by just accepting what is told. Try to analyze it with the help of the guy in the glass.
While selecting a profession or even a life partner, hundreds of people will give you suggestions. I am not telling you that all of them are useless but you decide yourself which one is the best for you and act accordingly. Even in course of time, you realize your mistake then take your responsibility and correct it fast.
In this competitive world, you have to be the best. You have to different enough to be successful. Take the example of Steve Jobs. He gave the slogan to the world ‘Think different’. If you read the story of Steve Jobs, you can easily find the simplest road to be successful and that is ‘Dare to be different’. His story reveals that Steve Jobs never tried to be like anybody. He had his ideas, he stood for them and he won.
Be yourself is the attitude that will help you the most in times of adversities. When there are problems and when your mind is in doubts, your self conscience will help you. There are lots of sayings. I like one which tells that God helps those who help themselves. Message is quite clear, the help from inside strengthens you and the help from outside tends to weaken you. It depends on us what we select but one thing is final - be yourself.
Be the best- refers to excellence in your work. It does not matter what you are doing or what is your salary or what are the material rewards but there is inner satisfaction which makes you the best. Why America is a superpower? This obvious question is for all. America is a superpower because of her people. Americans don’t care for what they are doing but they care for how they are doing. A sweeper there feels that he is doing an important work of cleaning which is necessary for the health of people. A cop feels that it is his duty to help the people and a doctor feels that he is like the God for his patient and a nurse feels that it is her duty to serve the ill or injured. In our country or even in our neighbourhood we find lot of people complaining about their work and its problems. We can change the scenario by just one thing – do your work properly and be the best. Your post or position or wealth is not important but how you are doing your work is more important.
We will find a lot of people around us who will try to divert our minds and involve it in negative thoughts. Stick to your basics. Whenever, you find any negative thought don’t let it dominate your mind. Just ignore it and focus on your work. Times will come when people and your peers may doubt your abilities or raise questions for you. Don’t get disheartened, ignore it and move forward and one day you may find that the decision taken by you was far better than any other suggestion. As mentioned by Robert Frost in his poem, select the road less traveled and that will make difference in your life.
Thank you very much and once again
