Fear

I feared being alone

Until I learned to like myself;

I feared failure

Until I realized that I only fail when I don't try;

I feared success

Until I realized that I had to try in order to be happy with myself;

I feared people's opinions

Until I learned that people would have opinions about me all the time anyway;

I feared rejection

Until I learned to have faith in myself;

I feared pain

Until I learned that it's necessary for growth;

I feared truth

Until I realized the ugly side of lies;

I feared life

Until I experienced it's beauty;

I feared death

Until I realized that it's not the end, but a beginning;

I feared my destiny

Until I realized that I had the power to change my life;

I feared hatred

Until I saw that it was nothing more than ignorance;

I feared love

Until it touched my heart;

I feared ridicule

Until I learned how to laugh at myself;

I feared growing old

Until I realized that I gained wisdom everyday;

I feared the future

Until I realized that life just kept getting better;

I feared the past

Until I realized that it could no longer hurt me;

I feared the dark

Until I saw the beauty of the star light;

I feared light

Until I learned that truth would be my strength;

I feared change

Until I saw a caterpillar undergoing metamorphosis to transform into a beautiful butterfly!!!

You Can Win

Everyone likes to win...

Is winning an easy task?

This question ponders over many a times in my mind...
When we ask this to a successful person..
He says..
One needs to be focused and determined to reach the goal.. and he has to work towards it.. there are not shortcuts to victory!!!

I do agree..

Shortcuts may take you places.. that too in a short time.. no doubt about it.. but these shortcuts cannot keep a person to the top for a longer time.. as there is always a downfall waiting with open arms..

We all think of winning.. in every aspect of life..
But is it possible to win always?
We all have faced failures in life..
It could be in exams, love, friendship, work, sports, marriage...
We try to cope up with all these... and we overcome the failures with the determination to do so..

If we keep this determination beforehand itself... and work towards everything in life, giving our 100% or rather more than that.. Won't we succeed ..?
And even if we don't at least we will have a satisfaction that we tried our best..

Before taking up any task if we start thinking negative that we won't be able to do this or that.. it is utmost certain that we will definitely face FAILURE.. We need to have a positive approach towards life. If we limit ourselves we will never know what powers we hold within..
Here I would like to put up some lines I read somewhere...

You have powers you never dreamt of.
You can do things you never thought you could do.
There are no limitations in what you can do
Except the limitations of your own mind.

So set your minds free because nothing is impossible.. and even the word impossible says I m possible.. go ahead set goals, work towards them and I am sure...

You Can Win!!!!
