Scared? Are you? Scared of going off beat? Scared what people will think? Scared what the outcome will be? Scared about other's expectations? Scared of doing something different? Scared to give a try? Scared, you won't make it? How long will you be? What if you would've never tried to ride a bicycle? Cause you were scared of being hurt or never joined a sport because you were scared. But you did even you didn't know what the outcome will be. Maybe you became too good or you just ended up being a looser.  Well, you weren't a looser at all. You surely did learn something and it's actually better than those who never tried, they know nothing.  Most of the things we are scared about are just our thoughts which do not have an end. They are meaningless, without any basis. You are limiting yourself, you let go lot of opportunities because of your thoughts. Whenever you are not able to achieve something, you assume it to be a sheer wastage of time. H...

Going after a dream has a price. It may mean abandoning our habits, it may make us go through hardships , or it may lead us to disappointment. But however costly, it is never as high as the price paid by people who live in his/her comfort zone . - The Zahir, Paulo Coelho Have you made enough efforts to succeed or accomplish whatever you want? Or you just dream to do something? Have you paid the price for that dream? Or are you busy making excuses? You had a setback and you start making excuses just to justify your setback. You and me, we humans are excuse making machines. You don't fail, it's just a setback which you can overcome. No one ever care about your excuses, you lost means you lost, no one is ever gonna ask you why you lost. You have to struggle alone with no one by your side . Dealing with naysayers, fighting with depression and anxiety. You may have to work three jobs at a time or have to work 24*7 without weekends to prove yourself right. These costs, howeve...

What do you do when your dreams keep on shouting, they fall on deaf ears, don't they? Well, for how long? Tried keeping them out of your mind and tired, but they don't seem to leave. Trying to sleep  Haha, it's not that easy, they won't let you fall asleep. How long are you going to try and suppress them? Your dreams shout louder than your voice, you won't be able to suppress them longer. You know that it ain't feasible to give them time right now or invest in them right now. But if not now then when? They will suffocate you as the time passes by. How long? Ask yourself. How long?  Ever felt the way your heart beats when you do what you love? You don't even get tired, you don't care about time or anything, filled with confidence and zeal you work. Stop running away from your dreams, go catch them, make them come true, they are yours . Given to you for a reason, follow them. What if most of the famous personalities round the world have not given ...

Inspiration to me is something which is most requisite for the success of an individual. But do you have an ideal whom you always wanted to be like? I guess it is not always a single person who inspires you, those who in their daily lives push you forward inspite of their self position should be your ideal, your inspiration. Those who show faith in your abilities although they might not have reached heights in their life, but they are the one worthy to be your ideal. Your role model, who you want to be like, a renowned business man, a celebrated singer, a great sportsman and a lot more. These peoples success inspires you, although you forget that the circumstances faced by each and every one are different, everyone has a different success story. Dreaming to be like someone is not what will make you like them, it will be your efforts and the support of people beside you. It was there struggles which made them who they are. You need to search for inspiration within yourself, not ...
