One
of the great enigmas of life is “being normal" or
"reasonable", often means settling for ordinary results, while
success demands from us to step out of these conventional and ordinary
boundaries, and experience extraordinary with our unique abilities and power.
Highly successful people are, by definition, not average people!
All
of us have been pressured to conform at one time or another. We've been told to
"sit still" in school, to "stop interrupting" or "not
make a scene." We've been criticized for dressing, speaking, acting or
thinking or being "different." The subtle and not-so-subtle pressures
to accept conventional norms are powerful. "To get along, you have to go
along."
Abraham
Lincoln is widely regarded as the greatest American president, yet the thing he
was most known for among his friends was his repulsive refusal to quit running
for office, even after he lost thirty-two elections! That is not normal, but a
belief was so powerful within him that he didn't care about what is normal or
what isn't. He did not compromised with his failures, but he challenged those failures again and again and finally achieved his deep desire, with his not so
normal decisions of life.
The
Wright brothers thought they could fly! Henry Ford thought he could put a car
in every garage. Narendra Modi while selling tea on his small tea stall thought
he could be Prime Minister someday. Dhirubhai Ambani thought he could be a
great business tycoon and the owner of Reliance Industry no matter if he has
brought up from such a small village, no matter if even his father did not
support him and did not find his decision “normal”. He had a belief that he can do it and left
behind all the conventional boundaries of being normal or reasonable.
To
achieve anything in life you must have a belief and then the entire cosmic
force energy will be gathered to make you achieve your desire.
While giving a tribute to Raj guru, Sukhdev and Bhagat
Singh, let’s recall the history; they decided to lay their lives for the
country? They were so focused that they will give our country peace and
independence at any cost, they did it. And then they died for the country with
an contented heart because they fulfilled their inherent goal of making our
country independent. It
was their belief which has today given an independent and wonderful life to billions
of Indians.
Now, we need to tell the truth here. A lot of
crazy ideas really are…crazy. We've all had brilliant ideas in the middle of
the night, only to find that in the clear light of day they weren't worth
pursuing. Many great ideas have been lost because the genius who thought it up
was shy. Or lacked courage. Or was intimidated by someone's comments that, “YOU
CAN’T DO THAT”!
All great ideas were crazy before they were brilliant.
Alexander Bell thought he could talk over copper wires, and even worse, Marconi
thought he could send messages through thin air! When David Sarnoff wanted to
launch the first radio network (now NBC), one investor ridiculed him by asking,
"Who would pay to send a message to no one in particular? “How crazy was
that!?
If
you can read this, you are a genius. You have had thousands of wonderful,
creative, brilliant ideas—most of which you've never pursued, because you let
your fear come in between your brain power, your ideas.
Success
is not achieved by being "ordinary." It is achieved by following your
own path and trusting your own instincts.
No two people have the same DNA or the same
fingerprints. No two parents (not even spouses) raise their children quite the
same way. Everyone is unique in their own ways. Everyone has different taste,
likes and thought process. Only the brain power is same, equal. But the thought
process is different. So why let others judge your thoughts or decision, why
let others comment on your dreams, even if the dreams are not normal. If you
feel it’s normal for you, if your feel you can do it, GO FOR IT! Yes, you made
for that, and you discovered it. You have discovered the reason behind your
birth. Now time to Take charge of Life.
Don’t let anyone come and again keep you away from the real motive of
yours to be born.
To
achieve your unique version of success, follow your heart. Yes, you'll want to
learn from others, have a great strategy and superb execution. Yes, you'll want
to obey the law and regulations, and you'll need a great team. But primarily,
you become great by being exactly, and uniquely yourself. This is a call for
more eccentrics, more individuals, more creative, shameless adventurers. Go
where your heart and your instincts lead.
FOLLOW
YOUR DREAM!
Instead
of following the "normal" highway, blaze a new path and leave a trail
for others to follow.
