What If........

A Very Good Afternoon to Every One

 I trust that all of you and your family members are doing good and staying safe in the prevalent pandemic situation

Today, I would be sharing my viewpoint on 02 very important words, (you may call it Magical Question as well) which we always use and that could have a significant impact on our lives.

Did anyone get those 02 words?, Ok so here you go the 02 words are WHAT IF ? . In Hindi it’s a commonly used syllable Log kya kahengey.

 For a few of us out here, What If could be a Magical Question that we ask ourselves many times, almost in every situation when we are a bit hesitant of taking action for the plans that we have within us.

 But for me What If, is a very Strong Affirmation, which when used in a positive way, has the Power to Change the Pathway of our Lives.

However we as Humans Beings, mostly tend to use the What If, in a negative way, which impacts our thinking, decisions and plays the role of a catalyst, in instilling the fear of failure, which restrains us from moving forward in our lives.

 What If could actually be the Stepping Stone for the potential future of yours that you have dream of ?

 Let me take this opportunity to share a Success Story and associate it with the Positive Affirmation of What If.

All of you would know KFC, few of you would also know the story of Colonel Harland Sanders, who is the man behind KFC.

 This story is inspirational because it's an example of how perseverance, dedication, and ambition along with hard work can create success; regardless of your age and also a great example of using the Affirmation of What If in a positive Way. One of the most amazing aspects of his life is the fact that when he reached the age of sixty-five, after running a restaurant for several years, Harland Sanders found himself penniless.

Col. Sanders was a fellow who really loved to share his fried chicken recipe. He had a lot of positive influence from those who tasted the chicken. Colonel Sanders traveled door to door to houses and restaurants all over his local area. He wanted to partner with someone to help promote his chicken recipe. Needless to say, he was met with little enthusiasm

Does anyone know the number of time Colonel Sanders had heard No, before he heard his first Yes

.He heard 1009 "no"s before he heard his first "yes". Ok, let me repeat that. He was turned down one-thousand and nine times before his chicken recipe was accepted once!

Now let’s connect this story with the Positive Side of the Affirmation What If. I am sure you all agree that hearing No even for a couple times drives us into a frenzy and Colonel Sanders heard it 1009 times. Had Col Sanders used the affirmation of What If in a negative way, then today we all would not have been relishing the KFC. I am probably sure of what Col Sanders would have been saying to himself after every No. What If the next person liked my recipe and this would have motivated him to keeping pushing himself day in and day out to pursue his dreams.

 I am sure that at this moment you are able to relate that What If is a Strong Affirmation and the impact it can have on our lives.

 Now let’s take a few moments to recall a few situations in our lives, in which we have knowingly or unknowingly used the Affirmation of What If in a Negative Way, which has led to us not pursuing our ideas, thoughts and the vision to move forward.

 Hey don’t just start feeling guilty about it. Now let’s make a conscious effort to use the Affirmation of What If in Positive Way and see how it impacts and transforms our lives. The transformation may not be an Immediate One, but I am confident regular use of the What If in a +ve would instill the confidence within you, to follow your dreams, face / break the obstacles that come in the pathway of your Dreams
