You are your own cavalry

All throughout our lives, we are taught to stand up to the expectations and wisdoms people hope us to be having. Avoid turning out to be an out-of-the-box being but stay a mere puppet who lives the standard mediocre life, hesistant towards the probable upcoming destiny-changers. 

Life is an ocean. Seeming quiet (soughtable) on the surface but holding infinite number of lessons within. Human souls are the ships that sail over the waters, trying to divert the direction (ship's wheel) in all situations where deviations seem the best option out. On this journey, the waters don't always stay calm. They act on their own tides and send us baskets of unexpected pop-ups. Everything is bottled up in tiny baskets which we come across in the course of our life. 

It's not only about the things we have in life, but majorly what we do about them. The orthodox thinking that acts like shackles around our beliefs turns out to be the biggest stone that hinders our journey of life. Every stone we stumble across isn't always meant to be crossed over, sometimes they are placed in our way for us to gear ourselves up and throw them far away from the path on which other passengers (fellow beings) shall also travel.Not all things come easy. Stumbbling would only mean that we ease our own trip and leave the hurdle for others to face. Be a worker and take the initiative of easing other people's journey by foresighting a bigger plan and implementing on it despite of all hardships.

Not everyone is blessed with the courage or opportunity to work for the betterment of fellow beings. Whenever, you come across an instance where you can lend a helping hand, sure take the initiative. It might not do you much good directly but the conscience will always guide you right. Be selfless and stay put. Stop running from actions and hardwork even if they are not for your own thyself but for others. Maybe the person or the reaction of action won't just pay off quickly, but time shall surely come with a heavy paycheque. 

Moreso, mediocrity is overrated. It's been done with, lived with, overused with. Traditional thinking won't take you places. Be open to changes, newness and accept the discomfort with open arms. Expectations should be met with, for as long as they coincide with your soul. Think rationally and do what seems the most appropriate. Wisdoms never existed, they were created. So don't wrap your brain around only following it blindly. Cross your heart over it and try creating your own ones.

Your life is inclusive of the journey that you alone will undertake. Remember, every setback is an opportunity in disguise. On this path, certain fellow travellers shall take your hand and help you step over pebbles. But when it comes to that big scary stone, you are the lone one to decide whether to take the easy way out and just tackle it with a long stride or to buckle up and push it out of the way. Opportunities will knock on your life door a handful number of times, be sure not to miss them; neither to back away from it nor to sell yourself short infront of them.

Rightly remarked by Elaine Maxwell, "Whether I fail or succeed shall be no man's doing but my own. I am the FORCE"

Kindness pays , rudeness never !

A man as great as his words , Mark Twain once remarked ," Kindness is the language which blind can see and the deaf can hear ." The mortal struggle to exist in the diverse society many a times prompts us to take up the path of rudeness and stubbornness . Not only do these qualities hamper our internal growth but do also hamper the affection which might be imparted upon us .  People tend to regard others on the basis of their behaviour and expression . Let alone the personality they carry . The impression once formed in other's minds is often hard to mold and twist towards a new angle .  It is also argumentable that a person might not always be able to carry a lighter and positive , happy air around . Unexpected turn of fateful events often ruins one's mood and brings irritability in his actions . It is often said ," No man is born bad , but circumstances make him bad ." But , except all these minority feelings , what shall always linger into our behaviour be...

Expectations

It is human nature to always expect the end result to be more and most good . We often get blinded by our greed to valuate the things and people in their more than appropriate amount .  These huge expectations often lead us towards believing that we have been deprived of something which we are worthy of . In reality though we are always treated with the sufficient .  So from now on , stop expecting too much and rather work hard towards achieving those highly set expectations .                    Stop expecting , start acting ! 

Just Wait

Patience bears sweet fruits . Waiting for some particular event or time , makes it's happening worth . If we keep getting everything on time , we might not value them for their true worth , but when we are made to wait for it , we are able to recognise it's true value . The time period alloted to make the person wait for the end result must be in proportion to what the thing is worth . Only then shall the person be able to see the importance of it .  And we shall not be tired of waiting , for we deserve it only after some patience and time is dedicated towards getting it .                                         Patience Pays !

Fly High !

Amidst all the cheering , compliments and applaud for becoming the next Paulo Coelho , Ansel Adams , Richard Avedon  or da Vinci , what we forget is that we have become the next somebody . Somebody which the whole world has known . Somebody who has been appreciated and applauded for their pieces of work .  We have failed to establish ourselves as a whole and tried all along to be the next somebody . The personalities whose' hats we try to don are themselves the ones who havn't doned anybody else's hat but their own . What if Pablo Picasso aimed to become the next da Vinci ? What if Jackie Chan aspired to be the next Bruce Lee ?  Had they done that , the world would have lacked Picasso's unique artistic talent . The world would've been deprived of the geniuses .  Let Jackie Chan , the versatile actor's words , " I never wanted to be the next Bruce Lee . I just wanted to be the first Jackie Chan " , inspire us and let our individuality shine ... to let o...
