Be the Real Smart and Sharp One !

 “ Smart people learn from their mistakes. But the real sharp ones learn from the mistakes of others “. A quote by Brandon Mull. Mull was actually an American author  known for his children’s fantasy series. 

 

This was actually a beautiful quote that makes us think what we are. Are you smart, real sharp or a fool? Ok let me ask myself. Which category do I belong to? Did I learn from all my mistakes? It's a complicated question actually.  


Ohoo wait a second where does this fool come from ….  


Think about it. Are you learning from your mistakes? If not then you are a fool.


Mistakes are common to humans. I guess there's no one  who has not committed any mistakes in their entire life. If there is one then I am sure that he had not succeeded in his life. Because success happens by learning from mistakes. If no mistake happens then maybe he had not done anything. When we learn or do things, mistakes happen. It's just a natural process.


The important thing is to learn from all your mistakes. Make mistakes an advantage for you. Not only learn from your mistakes by also trying to learn from others mistakes. Climb the stairs of success by learning from mistakes. 


I guess there will be no one who doesn't know Amitabh Bachchan. The world famous actor and the most prestigious person of Indian Cinema. Do you think he got all these prestige all of a sudden? Of Course no. His continuous hard work and determination was there. But more than that his willingness to learn from his mistakes made him this prestigious person of the film industry. When he started acting his first 17 films were flops. But he didn't quit there. He was not a fool.  He was a smart and real sharp person. He learned from all the mistakes he had done and he saw. This made him a real success. On the other hand if he had quitted on his mistakes he would not be reaching anywhere. 


There is a quote by Kevin J Donaldson. “Remember, making mistakes is part of the process. The key to success is to make mistakes quickly, and recover quickly and keep forging  forward “. 


Learn from all your mistakes. Maybe you will be making mistakes one after the other. Don’t quit. Learn from it. Be a great successor in life. Enjoy life to the fullest. Do  what you want. Don’t forget to keep a beautiful smile on your beautiful face. Keep going. Have a beautiful, blessed, happy day. All the best.    :)

Turning Pain into Power !

  The word friendship seems to be too simple but it is having incredible powers than you think. It can give you joy, lots of memories that always hold over hearts and in the same way it teaches you really tough lessons of betrayal and mistreatment. Like many others reading this, I too had experienced both good and bad friendships, this really changed me but ultimately made me stronger only. I believe that we should experience the bad friendships first and then enjoy the really good life waiting for us. Bad friendships are sometimes a blessing in disguise. It will teach us resilience and make us powerful to withstand anything. But not everyone will be so lucky to overcome the emotional scars that happen through bullying or ragging. The tragic story of Ammu, a young nursing student from Kerala is a heartbreaking reminder of this. She ended her life leaving two words behind “I quit”. Ammu’s life was full of promises and I believe she had a beautiful life filled with happiness and wond...

Unstoppable power of challenges.

 W hile walking through the busy streets, I came to notice a poignant scene. A young woman in her 30’s sitting on the footpath and crafting rose bouquets. Beside her a tiny boy - mostly her son, who took the role of a tiny salesman. The boy approached the people walking by requesting them to buy the flowers. The little innocent face caught their attention, so most of them bought flowers. I joined them as well. This might seem like an ordinary scene in a busy city. But taking a moment and thinking of the scene will help us understand many things. In that moment I realized that the boy was not just selling flowers but in fact he was actually cultivating hard work and resilience in him. I am sure that he can face anything in life since he was trained to overcome challenges in this very young age. While many of us have grown in our comfort zone, it will be very difficult when life throws us into a big pit. The more we face problems in our younger age the more we will be able to face ...

Stop Comparing : Start Succeeding !

  Hellooo Everyone! Today, I want to take you back to your school days. Were you a front bencher or back bencher? You know society often considers the front benchers as the toppers and the backbenchers as the losers. Well I believe in what our former president, Abdul Kalam said, “The best brains of the nation may be found on the last benches of the classroom”. From the experiences and stories that I have heard, I came to know that the front benchers may know how to top the class but the back  benchers often have a  deeper understanding of how to be the real topper of life. And then there is that middle group, like me 😉,  the ones that don’t fit in either category. We often find ourselves stuck in the middle trying to succeed both in life and class, chasing for the ideas to be a topper. I guess I am deviating away from the main point I wanted to share with you. Let’s get back to those old school memories. Life was so simple back then, wasn’t it? The only worries were...
