Life is a Daring Game

Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all. – by Helen Keller

Helen Keller said, “Life is a daring adventure or nothing at all. (God forgive me for modifying her quote) I want to say “Life is either a daring game or nothing else.

Life is a Divine bliss of God to mankind. God gives us birth and handover the wonderful play ground to play the “Game of Life” for life time. In this play ground we find so many areas to play such as home (personal), office (professional) and society (personal and professional development). Here we all are assigned so many duties and responsibilities, which we have to play willingly and sometimes wilfully or forcefully. In this game of life, there are so many team-mates and so many opponents. We have to win the heart of our team mates and face the challenges of the opponent.

Each and every individual is free to choose his/her move and it depends on him/her how to play. The result depends on your sheer hard work. Every move is full of challenge and responsibilities, there is no second time. There are so many moves, ups and downs. There are so many hurdles and problems, if we face them with all our wit, we will be awarded with the advantage of happiness, peace, success and content. This game is interesting for some and restless for some. Player must have confident of his move and optimist towards the result then only he will win the game.

The result for this “Game of Life” is sweet for some and sour for some. Both of them believe that it’s the Destiny. We all are puppet in the hands of destiny and we must abide by it, but there are the players of the game, who throws the challenges to the Destiny and make their rules, plays and win the game as per desire. They dare to play the game and they come out as real winner. They make their own Destiny, thus they are called “Winner”.

Never Give Up: It is Not an Option

I want to let you know that it is okay to feel like you are giving up. That is natural. That is your way of reacting to a situation that is overwhelming you, and your state of mind at the moment. I want to make you be aware that I myself feel that emotion, have felt it and will expect to feel it again. But what I would want  you to know is that, it is totally unacceptable to give up. Yes, it is good to recognize that you are at a low point in your life, but giving up? NO way!

When you give up, you will make yourself unavailable to greater opportunities.

When you give up, you will close doors that may possibly bring you more fortune.

And, when you give up – you are telling the world that you are weak.

And I know you are not!

We are all capable of challenging our limitations.

The video that you are about to watch is about Arthur Boorman, whose inspiring story tells us that despite people’s rejection and beliefs (which turned out to be completely wrong) YOU are who you determine yourself to be.

I want you to devote a few minutes of your time today and see how anything is possible; how giving up is really not an option.

Get ready –

Take the opportunity today to write a list of things you are good at. The longer, the better!

Most of us find it easy to be critical of the things we think we can’t do when in actual fact there’s a ton of stuff that we do day in day out that we’re good at.

Today let’s remember all those things.

 Make the list as long as you can.

Put it somewhere you can easily lay your hands on it and the next time you hear yourself (or anyone else) say you can’t do something read that list.

Keep the positive at the front of your mind, the negative you can work on.

 Cheers!

Free Will – A Double Edged Sword

May 4, 2012 By 10 Comments

Life is like a game of cards. The hand that is dealt you represents determinism; the way you play it is free will. – by Jawaharlal Nehru

Life is a combination of two mysterious phenomenons: Effects of your past karmas and free will.

Free will simply means that you are free to do anything at your will. It’s the freedom and power to ‘Fire at will’.

It’s the power you are blessed with to do anything.

But as with any power, free will does come with a price-responsibility to use it with caution.

Free will is a double edged sword, a sword that can cut your hands if you are not careful.

I have seen many people abusing this great power.

They use free will to harm and control others. They exploit people and snatch from them something that is not rightfully theirs. And then, law of karma kicks in. It makes them pay for their misdoings.

Their life becomes a series of misery and sufferings. And then, they complain, whine and crib.

 

They look for excuses. They blame society. They blame people. They blame god. While in reality, it’s their foolishness that is to be blamed.

If you don’t know how to play with fire without getting burnt, don’t!

Not only will it burn you, but, will leave such scars, that you will not be able to recover fully, ever.

Take the Opportunity: Start a Good Habit

March 19, 2012 By 31 Comments

Take the opportunity today to
start a ‘good’ habit.

Starting a habit only takes 21 days! That’s right, 3 weeks and you are
well on your way to creating a good habit in your life whether that’s
going to the gym every day, eating your 5 a day every day or resisting
smoking each and every day.

The next stage is 4 months. If you can push yourself through the first
21 days of creating a habit it exponentially becomes easier and easier
each and every day after. When you hit the 16 week mark (4 months) you
will have a deeply embedded habit that is harder to stop than it is to
continue.

What are you waiting for? Decide today which habit you would like to
kick or which you would like to start. Choose one only, in order to
give yourself a chance to succeed – you can always choose more habits
in the future once you have tasted the success of this first one.

Good luck!
