Life..Hurdles???
‘Life is always filled with hurdles’ says my father and advised ‘we must be strong enough to overcome those hurdles’. May be his opinion is true to some extent. But I think hurdles are manmade. They are not imposed by anyone. If I want to run 100 meters sprint event, which is most difficult for me, because I am not a well trained athlete.
Problem is we do things we are not supposed to do. That is our nature. But the Mother Nature has already decided the things for us. See successful Doctor, or a professional bike builder. I can’t do what they are doing. Not because I did not have necessary qualifications, but I do not have the ingenuity. I can do what I am passionate about.
Most successful people, as I observed and know, got success in life due to the fact that they listen to their heart. They become successful because they followed their passion, not imitating others. When we do things in our own way we do not see hurdles as hindrances. We welcome them because they make us strong as businessmen, professionals etc.
Be it employment or profession, we must select one that suits our strengths and passion. Since someone earning handful money due to that profession, is not our motivation. May be he or she suits there well and we fail.
Listen to your heart when choosing something. Make your own way, though it is difficult at first, but that pays you enormous dividends. Blindly imitating others make us copycats.
