Fear Factor!!


Most of us are often, unable to live our lives fearlessly...
People live their lives out of fear for a number of things..it could be fear for loosing out on opportunities..or fear of loosing out on people..fear of being hurt..fear of animals/insects..fear of failing an exam..fear of heights..fear of darkness..maybe a fear of fear..fear of not being happy..fear of failure in anyway..or maybe a fear of death...Fear in life comes in various ways and various measures..

But it makes me wonder..how does this fear comes into existence in the first place..
When I was born, was i born with the fears in my mind..or did they come into being with time as an when i grew..
I think no one is born with any fear..God is very kind and he send every child of his own with a fearless state of mind..Our own fears come into being only with time on the basis of our lifestyle..upbringing..surroundings..some incidents or mistakes in our lives..or maybe any other reason..and this is why the category of fear varies from person to person...

I have my own fears like everyone of us...and as i introspect and think about all the fears that are inside me...i realize that it is these fears, that act as stepping stones in my life and take me away from my primary purpose of existence...
Don't we take most of our important decisions of life, after intentionally or unintentionally giving weightage to the fears in our minds...We do make our decisions after weighing the pros and cons of the situation in our minds..and unknowingly our mind carefully analyses each fear before taking its decision...
The smart thing that our mind is..it knows perfectly what our fears are and it make us choose the path which has the least of our fears. It is an intelligent decision maker and we have programmed our minds to make decisions in this way for us..

I wonder, how life would be if we are able to overcome all the fears within us and our focus just lies on moving further and going higher up in life..It would be so much better..cause its only then that there would be no fear of going down again too!
It is when we overcome our fears in life only that we give our ambitions a whole hearted thought and fearlessly move towards our goals in life..
Cmon now temme, when we move ahead fearlessly, what would be coming in the way to deter ur mind and body from your goals and ambitions...

I believe, there exists a Khatron ka Khiladi in each one of us...Cause there exists fear in each one of us...and where there is fear...there also is the inner spirit to fight against that fear..and thats when the oh so hidden Khatron Ka Khiladi comes into picture...
Haven't we all seen the sprite ad with the tagline that loudly says: " Dar ke age jeet hain", The 30 seconds ad come across with such a strong principle of life and hats off to the mind behind it for putting it up fearlessly..

As I notice, most of the people who have achieved or reached somewhere in life are very strong..they have succeeded in overcoming their fears and have therefore been able to develop a confidence in their decisions and their work..Had they been fearful, they would not have been able to reach where they are..cause as u go up in life..the biggest of fears just tend to go up too..the biggest of it all is the fear of loosing the niche u have carved for urself with so much of a hard work...

Sixty years back, had Gandhiji not been fearless, would he have been able to get our country independence almost single handedly..No, never...
I feel, fear is a very mind thing..it is an illusion which exists just in our minds and not in the real sense..
The day we are able to overcome our fears in the real sense, we shall come out bravely and successfully..cause we shall be at a position where nobody on this earth can take us away from what we want to achieve, not even death..
Killing the inherent fear of death in oneself, would lead to a murder of most of our fears of life...After all, i think one cannot die in the complete sense with death alone..one dies out of fear...
Death cannot and doesnot kill oneself..it just changes our form of existence and mostly for the better..Death can never kill one's spirit and completely delete our existence from the earth..

I am going to try my best to overcome my fears and not think about them at all..and instead concentrate on my work/goal of life, lead my life with an example and stick to my principle and do things on the basis of my understanding of right and wrong...
I have no idea if i will ever be able to achieve the above myself..cause its not really easy...but one things for sure...the above is what i believe in, and the above shall be how i would be moving ahead in life...
God bless alll....
Live life fearlessly!!!

Poem!!

I tried my hands on the poem underneath few days back and was very apprehensive in putting it up till now….its my first time and have no clue how its come out...But anyways, here’s how it goes…. (P.S. Im Jittery!)

God’s creations have been sent to the world with an intention,
And if u don’t get the true message, he sends you to detention.

The requisite and purpose of existence gives birth to life,
And to fulfill that very purpose u need no one, not even a Husband or Wife!

He sends you alone in the world full of thousand being,
But u should not forget that every deed you do, he is seeing!

He never forgets to bless you with one thing or the other,
Just do your bit, and for the rest he sends before you, your Mother!

Finding that purpose means half the job is done,
But, how the purpose shall be completed is where exists, the real PUN! ;)

You just move towards your goal with grit and focus,
And see how soon things fall your way like a chant of hocus-pocus!

In the path, you shall find many stepping stones,
But then, what’s music without a few ups and down tones?

Just move ahead and time shall turn all the stones upside down,
And if time persists to fail, do remember to give God that Frown! ;)

Ive always heard, Winners never quit and quitters never win,
So never quit, go ahead, move up your chin, n not to forget that OH so killing grin!

God’s creations have been sent to the world with an intention,
And if u STILL don’t get the true message, he surely sends you to detention!!

This ones all BRAINY!!! :)


Human mind is such a fascinating creature...its amazing how a small thing like our brain has the capacity to hold endless varieties of stuff inside it...It is definitely the strongest machine invented by the smartest engineer of the world...GOD! Constantly at work... rigorous work i must say, for a person like me who is continuously thinking something or the other...and thankfully no breakdowns so far!! Touch Wood on that! :)

I read somewhere that a human brain contains about a 50-100 billion neurons...woohh, thats a huge number, and i was left wondering, what size are these neurons, like a micro milimetre or something and how do they fit in, in there...and immediately a strange picture of a small bowl full of maggi noodles came into my head, all entangled into one another just like many of our brains...i know ewww.. :P !!
But seriously, looking at the size of the brain, what if these neurons or nerve cells get entangled and intermingle into one another...will that lead to a mixture of my own thoughts...ahah....eureka..isnt this intermingling normally termed by us as confusion? Maybe this is what it is! So it also means to resolve confusion in one's mind..the only trick is to think about only one thing at a time or not think at all!
As i talk about neurons, i somehow visulaize the scene of Prof. Dumbledore in the movie Harry Potter taking out his thought from the wand and putting it in the water...oh so that noodle like thing he took out was neuron!! :))

I crib many times about how my mind is constantly working and is involved in deep and variety of thoughts...so much that it sometimes make me feel uneasy and sometimes makes it difficult for me to make a decision...
I often find myself scolding my brain to stop working so so hard and take some rest so that i am also at peace with myself...i guess now i can put it up as my neurons are active..:)

On a serious note, i think its very important to learn to have a control over your thoughts and let things happen on their own...or maybe think about one thing at a time...life should become easy with this one's implementation...and yes more peaceful...

After all it is a machine...how much will it work without breaking down...Easy woman...easy!!
Hah...too many thoughts to ponder again...i think i should just sleep...or meditate...nahin toh mera kuch nahin ho sakta....:))

luv to all!

A journey cald LIFE!!!


Every day seems like a new day...a new beginning...meeting new people, while keeping the old ones...lookin for new avenues...new growth prospects...new learning experiences...finding yourself new paths...and breaking the tide and starting afresh...!
WOW! lifes surely a journey...and in this journey called life, one really never knows what the road ahead will look like...will it be bumpy or smooth?...will it be good or bad?...will it work in my favour or against it?...will it take me where i wish to go...moreover, do i really know where i wish to go...PHEW! This is why most of us often choose to go along with the flow and course of life!

As i see people around me, it often amuses me to see how each day unfolds so beautifully showing the world or maybe a person at a smaller level, something unseen! Many of us spend a lot of our time planning things carefully...considering each thing at a time...so much that when u know that things have now been set straight, BANG! Someone up there laughs and says..."No My Dear, not so early, strive, strive some more!", Isn't it absolutely hilariously ironical!

As a matter of fact, a change in plans are not worth the cribbing we often do, forcing ourselves to torture the poor thing in the head , a little bump every now is always put in to bring in the spice in life..and one cant deter...one just has to hop on...hold the fist tight...set in the trigger and RIDE on!

Its interesting how each one of our Life's full of ironical situations, isn't it oh so weird how things or people which make u feel the happiest are also blessed with the power to make u feel the lowest in life...i mean would n't it have been simpler if there were two different categories for the above for us to rely on the happier side while shedding our tears!
One cannot turn a blind eye towards the eternal truth that, like any journey, one day this journey too has to end...life's too short...time's too less and there are N number of things to do...So Do whatever it takes to makes u feel happy and good about yourself...live life just the way you want to and do the things u want to...believe in yourself and listen to your heart!
Go ahead! Take that Salsa or Guitar lesson...or go loose that weight...or pamper yourself at an extravagant meal...Take that much awaited holiday...or simply sleep...take that course you ve been longing for...speak to people u love the most and laugh out loud! do your Karma to the fullest and keep everyone around u happy...and soon life's gonna be a rollercoaster...So what if plans dint work out...Ur worth much more and u deserve it all! just be good, be strong and be happy!
Noone knows what future has in store for!!! hope is always alive!

lotsa love!
