Offbeat: The Scourge of Hate!

Often we are confused to choose between concepts. Take this path or this path, this person is right or this person is right. Remember, there must be options in life. But excellence should not be lost because of alternatives. If you have the best option then it is not necessary to think about any other option in its absence. Remember, sometimes a less good option turns out to be a better one. In the end it depends on our decision. If our decision is firm then our choice leads us to success. ***** When I am asked which is more important, struggle, hard work or luck, I am reminded of something Shammi Kapoor said. He said in an interview that ninety nine percent should be your hard work. And one percent is God's blessing, which we call nasiba or vidhata. When you don't have ninety-nine percent and only have one percent, you get it, but you can't enjoy it. It cannot last long for you. It comes to you in due course. So always work hard and then pray that O God you support this honest effort. Raat Jeet Sangin Hoagie Subah Utni Colorful Hoagie. ***** Happiness of Silence The joy of silence The joy of solitude. Silence means not only that we remain silent but also our actions. Thoughtless not to think anything. No action at all. Keeping some hours, some seconds of the day in which we are away from gadgets, mobiles. Often we are silent, but our heads are on our mobiles. Because of that we do not get our solitude. In mobile phones, we have to answer those who do not want to call us, those who do not like us. And one has to wait for the answer of choice. Solitude is to freeze all this. Listening to our bodies. It has a language. The ray of success bursts forth from the answer he gives. After that it becomes like the sky. While some solitudes do not lead us to solitude, some solitudes show us the way into ourselves. ***** It often happens that we get bored after trying. Boringness is the biggest disease of today. We get bored instantly. Let's hurry up. There is anxiety, but then boredom overwhelms us. As a result we put off work. We get tired and lost from the effort. To strive to the end. To try until we fail. And after failing roll one again. Failure adds to our experience. Sharpens the edge of our skills. And then what happens is success. Don't be afraid of failure to make an effort in any field of work, any personal matter of life. Failure is not recognized. That leads to success. ***** There are ups and downs. Its name is life. There is happiness and sadness. There may also be estrangement and union. That is what life is made of. Don't shrink when you get happiness, don't shrink when you get sad. Be positional like clockwork. It doesn't matter what time it is. What matters is how far we have come and how long it has taken. If you want to win, no power in the world can defeat you. If you want to be sad, no power in the world can stop you from being sad. You have to adapt your definition of happiness according to your environment and celebrate it accordingly. ***** Where else is needed to live life. We need relationships, not support. It doesn't matter if there is someone, but it is more important when we are raised in someone and that someone is raised in us. Then selfhood is automatically added to be with the self-sufficient self. Remember, the man who learns to live with himself, that man swims in life. ***** You think I did a great job today. And my work is going to be successful. And then it feels like taking a break today, taking some space. So take it! Take that space and do what you like in it! To read a book you like, to sing even if you don't know how to sing, to dance, to have fun, to have fun. We should not do anything thinking what others think. If we celebrate ourselves, others will celebrate us from the front. And remember, the satisfaction of doing a good job is reflected in our eyes.
