Stop thinking a lot !
Change is the only constant !
Whatever happens, life has to move on !
Stay strong and keep moving!
When going gets tough, the tough gets going!
These are some common quotes we keep on listening from our near and dear when we express our inability to carry out day-to-day activities efficiently and when we ponder over happened things from past and might-happen things from future only to waste our valuable time. And most of such concerns are mind-set related and are often seen as small issues when conveyed openly.
So how do we deal with them ? Is it just because of over-thinking, over imagination, living in past or fearing about future? Or is it because we are less-occupied and inactive ?
Let us try to devise a solution to this by seeing newly born in our family.
A kiddo does many amusing things all through the day. He keeps himself busy with something or other until he sleeps, he shows his enthusiasm to grab everything he sees, touches things to have a feel of it, he enjoys what all he sees, he has keen eyes, ears and eagerness to know new things. He displays all sets of human emotions as and when they occur to him without attending communication skills class like most of us do. It's just that he doesn't know any of our languages we speak but he conveys everything with his actions and natural signalling system. The smile he gives whenever his dad comes back from office, a quick cry if his mother is quietly slipping away from him are priceless. He is what we saw with no filters and no hidden things. He cries whenever he falls down but in a minute forgets the pain getting hold of newly bought teddy! That's the best part in a kiddo ! He is instantaneous, natural, super optimistic and relentless in his efforts.
Now, are we all the same what we were in our childhood? Many of us say No!
Time to re-inculcate some of the best qualities which we all had in our childhood.
Dr. Kalam always says "it is the optimism, cheerfulness and ever-learning attitude of the child that we all should carry throughout our lives." These qualities are enablers for our continuous growth and teaches us new things wherever we are and helps to make ourselves better day-by-day; it also leaves a positive impact on our surroundings. But the problem here is, having got the best of nurturing, the best of schooling and now better social status we all tend to relax, take light and try to enjoy/limit ourselves. Once we are stagnant, thoughts of endless cycles about every minutest things create ripples in our mind eating away what all good we acquired over the years. What the fun in ruining us like this! Let us all choose some stream, some hobby, some activity to carry the child in us! Let us be more occupied like a child to be happy because happiness is contagious and it creates a happy environment ! It clears away our polluted minds and paves for the far better world for us! To be happy, we need not be rich, we need not do great but we need to pursue small things consistently and grow continuously like how a tortoise pursues it's race! Know that (1.01)^365 gives 37.783 while (0.99)^365 almost nullifies. So, start now and never stop! Go beyond the goal for there is no real goal till the journey of life reaches it's last mile !
Let the child in us shine and shine forever !
