Yesterday I was thinking about the reasons behind failures. A person dreams for his future. One puts effort for making the dream tangible. He performs his level best. That is his work, his duty. But it may be possible that he does or does not taste the fruit of work. Really it hurts, even hurts very much. But what can be done. As the consequence of it, he may think that he is unlucky or god is not with him.
It is natural to be depressed at the time of failure. But is it the right way to take the failure?
To leave everything is right?
To quit from the game is right?
No it is not the time to quit. It's the time to fight with more efforts. Cause what can u do after quitting, nothing, then it is good to remain the same, to put effort again.
It's true that failure is a hard reality, but it should be taken lightly but at the same time very seriously. Life is not a bed of roses; ups and downs are a common phenomenon here.
If the work is normal then anyone can get success. But if it is a harder one and full of responsibility then surely it will test u in every sphere- be it ability, be it patience, be it any other requirement from your personality.
If you fail, it means u r given an opportunity to do better than the past one. If you think u was able and your fruit was given to other one. May be that he needed it more than u or there might be a more tasty fruit for u or your destiny is different or u deserve more than that. If you can, then don't be negative and grab the fruit which you deserve. I think positive anything is better than negative nothing. Don't forget that to climb steep hills requires slow pace at first.
Do you think that at the time of preparation, you covered all the things which you wanted to and which were required for that? Do as much as you can and think as much as you can to do work. For that, just give time to your will, think ideas for that, it may be that the main requirement of the work is not in your thoughts even. I think to go for introspection is better than to blame fate and god. What would be the result of blaming fate and god? Do you think that sky thunders and god thinks that OH! It is the question of my existence. I know it is all our childhood. It will not be there. We should pray to ourselves cause it may be that god is our faith, strength, feeling , goodness, heart or one of our good extreme which touches the horizon. Then the question of bravery, existence, anger and will power should be arisen in our soul and if this arises then you touch the heights, which you deserve, which are sill unattainable.
Don't forget that the normal success can be achieved by luck, but great ones need the best effort.
I am sorry. I didn't mean to preach. All these talks look like a preach in this Iron Age. So I am not saying you to be lord Rama , yeah be lord Krishna. Cause to do self favor is not bad in these cases where you are not hurting anyone else. The bad people get success cause they are going at the way of probability means they know either they will get success or not. The probability for both is ½. If they get it is good or if not then it is O.K cause they don't work. The ratio of good to bad people is very less. So it is mathematical to be selected from the bad ones. But still something are only for good people. Cause goodness will not end even in Iron Age. So be an alert good man. Cause during the time of depression and consequently hibernation we loose many of opportunities. Don't forget it is not only in Iron Age but it was also in Silver age viz. sitaji had to pass through the fire for her exam.
Success and failures are two facets of the same coin and when the coin is tossed, one of the outcomes will be surely there. Failures are pillars to success, not to quit the battles. Failure is neither frustrating nor a depressing incident.
God always plays chess with each one of us. He makes moves in our life and then sits back to see how we react to the challenges. So make the best move everyday. Keep believing in yourself. It will enlighten the darkness. Keep faith in your purity, the dark will turn into the light if it enters the range of your light. Certainly god will keep you calm in your rainy days. I think, I thought a lot for me but whenever I thought that it did not happen for good. I got the good results of that hurt pain sooner or later. If you already perceive the result i.e. failures then start your work again without spoiling a single day. Don't get nervous cause you deserve a lot and you can get all that. May be that the success is just a single step ahead of you. ALL THE BEST.
