Every day we see and we live in a world where we believe that bad things are supposed to happen to us. We have so many sources bombarding our senses from all the angles which by default makes us believe that we need to be always vigilant and careful with the unknown evil force that could attack us any time. We fear that anything can go wrong any moment and we live in a cruel world where we can have no hope for things to change.
World has never been this safe. In fact the world is so much better and secure compared to the 1940s and 1950s. We have less wars, no slavery, we have lesser poverty, lesser racial and communal violence, we have advanced healthcare, we have technology, better security and so on
You must be willing to do things today others won’t do in order to have the things tomorrow others won’t
What are the things that others won’t do
- Make discipline a major force in your life
- Socrates said the undisciplined life is an insane life . The road to life is straight and narrow because there are only few that are willing to discipline themselves.
- Make it okay to fail a lot of people 85% of people allow their fear of failure to outweigh their desire to succeed.
- You don’t have to be great to get started but you have to get started to be great
- Socrates said the uncommitted life isn’t worth living. Commitment means to carry into action deliberately. Commit means to making it happen no matter what.
