Success or Failure?!

Is life only about achievements and success? Everyone wants to achieve something or the other .ie. everyone wants to be successful in whatever they do, and never fail. But if one keeps being successful all the time, without any failures, isn't the essence of success lost? Its the same as eating the same food all the time. Well if thats the case, then one doesn't totally enjoy the food after sometime. Always there should be a contrasting effect for everything. I mean there should be a change otherwise one gets "bored"!

For example, you like to eat hamburgers. But what if you keep eating hamburgers all the time? You will eventually get bored of hamburger. You will crave for something else other than a hamburger.

Same thing can be applied to success. If one keeps succeeding all the time, one forgets the actual feeling of being successful. But that doesnt mean one needs to fail, just to get the feel of success.

All that I want to say is, failure is bound to happen sometime. Instead of regretting or feeling remorse for what has happened, its better to think whatever has happened, happened for the good. Perhaps its time to try even harder next time. As they say, "Failure is the stepping stone to success", one should utilise the opportunity to rebound back to the path of success.

Another example would be of any company. Any company would incur both profits and also losses at times. But if a company if a able to capture the market after a huge loss, then that success would be a big one.

Failure is like the "nature's" way of saying , "It's time for a change!". It can happen unintentionally, but it would happen. So instead of worry whether one would fail or not, just keep moving on and hope for the best the next time.

Have you heard about the YinYang. Its a symbol that states, nothing in this world is perfect. I totally agree with that. If everything was bound to prefect, then there is nothing to look forward in life.

PS: There would be many out there, who after reading this article, would like to tear it down. But it cant be helped, because all am doing is expressing my views. But I would like to hear from anyone who doesnt agree with me. May be am wrong. So please help me correct it then.

To Blog Or Not To Blog?!

Ah, I remember the day I had started this blog page, with big dreams of writing all that happens in my life. Well just like many of the things I start with big enthusiasm, this one too went down the drain after a couple of days. But now that, I realise what it means to keep working on dreams without giving up so easily, I want to continue writing on blog.
What is that makes blogging so "special" or "great"? Well for some, its a means of expressing their feelings and emotions to the entire world. For other, its the passion for writing. For me, well I think it would be the former.

Ever since I had started my final year in high school, I had start pondering on "Why was I so shy, when its comes to expressing my feeling?". Belive me, I used to be so shy and scared, that my throat used to go dry when its comes to talking to girls. It was common for most boys and girls in my school to be petrified when it comes to communicating with the opposite gender. But, as always, there used to be exceptions. By exceptions I mean the people who have one or more abilities/characteristics, different from the rest of the crowd. Well, in this case its the ability to overcome the fear of talking to the opposite sex. I too had the fear, the fear that they might have think there is something on my mind, something negative, fear of something which I never had!!!!

To overcome this fear, this meaningless fear, I learnt that one needs to be open and frank when it comes to expressing your feelings. Well it turned out to be a tougher job than I ever imagined. Every time I spoke, I kept thinking "Am I embaressing myself ?". But eventually, I overcame the fear and started feeling very comfortable with everyone around me. It was the best time of my life (till now), freely expressing myself, everything and anything.

Thats when I decided to start writing a blog, to express my feelings to the world, freely and fearlessly. But back then I was too busy with studies ( since it was my final year in my high school ), I neglected writing in my blog.

Now that I am doing my UG, I have all the time in the world to continue writing in my blog. Also am inspired by someone over here. After reading her blog, I was like, "Dude, if she is able to express her feelings so beautifully and also has the passion to write, a passion so strong that she will write till the end of time, why cant YOU?!" Although she writes a chinese blog and I used a translator to read it, I found her blog to be beautifully expressed in her own way. Now I would love to start contributing to the blogging society. Hope, I too can continue to blog till the end of time.

PS: if you are reading, I thank you from the soul of my heart, for inspiring me. Also please continue to write and write and write and write........................
