I WILL
Circumstances and situations often trap us in a paradox where a clear outcome is shadowed by our fear of losing it altogether. It is one of those times of flux where our every thought, our every action determines what will happen. If we lose heart, lose faith, lose hope, get scared then even our most lucky stars will be unable to help us succeed. On the same hand, no matter how adverse the situation, no matter how dark the path, no matter how scary the visions may be, if we just say to ourselves, that “Yes! I can and I will overcome… ”, there is no power in the hands of humans, gods and devils that can stop you. Many of the greatest achievements in this world have been a result of people who made their mind so resilient that even the Satan’s pit appeared to be a small pot hole which can be hopped across. Our fears play a very major role in our actions and try their level best to stop us from taking what is meant to be ours. But let me ask you a very small question, “How do you stop a man with no fear?”
Fear is nothing but a manifestation of our brain that quantifies the positive and the negative outcomes of any given situation. Fear takes the name of negative outcomes and hope takes the name of the positive ones. Let me give you an example; imagine a child trying to ride a bicycle without support for the very first time. There will be two things running through his mind at the same time. One, the hope of riding the cycle flawlessly and mastering the art of balancing. Two, the fear of getting disbalanced, falling to the ground and getting hurt. Now, what if the boy’s father assured him that he will be running side by side and catch him if he falls. The fear has now subsided and the mind of the boy says that, “Yes, now I will!”, consequently he will elope on his bicycle like a unicorn elopes in the green pastures of nature. Again, what if the boy’s father never came after the cycle, what if he just kept on shouting that he is right behind but he never was. Still the boy managed to ride. That is the power of our determination. If for once in our lifetime we totally shun the very thought of fear for a given situation, our accomplishments will know no limits.
A situation is always what we take it to be. If you think that you are in a place of total control and there’s no looking back now. You are already a winner. If you think that although you have the greatest powers in the world watching your back yet you feel weak and unconfident taking a step ahead, your fall is inevitable. Once a very eminent person said, “If you really want something in life, then the whole universe conspires to make you have it”. Believe that you can, and you will.
Every situation in this world has at least two outcomes. Condemned is the man who says that I always face failure and there is nothing that I can do about it. We often think that our problems are the greatest in this world. Think again. There are billions and billions of people in this world. Facing the exact same problems in the exact same situation in their respective ways and yet they manage to overcome it. The only reason why they did and you didn’t is that they renounced fear. Broaden your perspective, try to look over and above the obvious, be innovative and believe. Thou shalt be rewarded.
