“See the
light in you. Your life is in your hands. Enjoy every moment by looking at the
positive aspects. Build a new foundation with the bricks thrown at you. Turn
your scars into stars. Life is great.” ―Professor M.S. Rao
People often
compare with successful people and get dejected and depressed when they fail to
achieve success in their lives. They assume that they are inferior to successful
people. They hardly understand the challenges the successful people encountered
to touch their tipping points. It is advisable not to compare with others
especially with successful people. We are different, our attitudes are
different, and our looks are different. The problem arises when we want to live
like somebody. Why do you want to become like somebody and insult God?
Progress takes
its own time. Progress happens at its own pace. Some people achieve success
early, some people achieve success in middle age, some people achieve success
in the old, and some people die as unsung heroes and heroines. Everything
happens for a reason.
How to Excel as an Extraordinary?
Everyone
wants to be extraordinary in the world. When you look at extraordinary
individuals including Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, and Richard Branson, they
never wanted to be someone. Then why do you want to be like someone? Don’t
search for stones by leaving gems at home. You are a hidden gem. Understand
this fact and lead your life meaningfully and mindfully.
Everyone is
gifted with a unique mindset, skillset, and toolset. Identify your gifts and
leverage them effectively to accomplish your goals and objectives. It is a
waste of your precious time, money, energy, and resources to imitate others and
explore their areas. Understand this fact to stand out from others to leave
your mark.
Learn from
others but don’t compare with them. Take successful people as inspiration but
don't compare with them. Remember, you are destined to achieve something
unique. Who wins at the end of the race matters not who leads at the beginning
or the middle of the race. So, keep doing your best without comparing yourself
with others. Compete with yourself.
Raise your bar. Follow your passion and go by the road less traveled to
achieve excellence and excel as an extraordinary. Invest your efforts,
energies, resources, and time productively and consistently. Set a goal, work hard regularly, and
contribute consistently to grow in your life. Enjoy every moment of your life
without losing focus on your destination.
Every dog
has its day. God gives opportunities for all. It is a matter of time. Therefore,
be prepared to rise to the occasion by converting your threats into
opportunities and brickbats into bouquets.
Be a Trailblazer
Be a
trendsetter, not a trend follower. You are a gift from God. You are unique in
this world. Follow the unique path. Lead your life mindfully and meaningfully. Life
is great.
“Don’t
compare your growth with others. When a sunflower blossoms, it just blossoms.
It doesn’t look around to see if the others have blossomed. It is very personal
and very individual. The lesson is not to judge, compete or compare and move
ahead.” ―Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
