Lie Or Success. Pick One !!!

 “If you want to be successful, you must respect one rule: never lie to yourself”. A famous quote by Paulo Coelho.


Wow. This quote seems very interesting.

How do we lie to ourselves? Have you ever lied to yourself? Or let me ask this question to myself. Have I ever lied to myself?.....

The answer seems very difficult. I am confused. 


Every one of us has lied to ourselves at some point in our lives. We have sacrificed our love and passion. Our mind will be insisting us to follow our joy and excitement. But unfortunately we lie to ourselves and follow someone else’s path. It can be due to our personal love, financial issues or it can be anything. 


Sometimes we don't get the opportunity to follow our passion. We cannot  showcase ourselves. Our wishes will be washed off by someone else. At that point of time we sacrifice with what we get. We just lie to our own heart that we are ok with what we have. We are actually cheating ourselves in one aspect.


Success doesn’t like lying to ourselves. Why should we compromise our passion for someone or something? Follow your own path. Don’t get worried about what others think or tell. It is just normal to get scolding and insults on the way to success. Sometimes we will be thrown out from our likes and comfort zones. But don’t cry or quit. Keep on going. Never lie. Success is there for you. 


Failures and insults happen as long as we try to do something. Never quit seeing that. Just because when you quit you just lie to your own heart that you are not good for anything. Never ever even allow these kinds of thoughts to enter our mind. They never take us to success. They just demotivate us and throw us back to where we have started our journey. It will be very difficult for us to start from scratch once again. 


Let me tell you a small interesting story. This is the story of a boy who belongs to a family of farmers. It was really hard for his parents to manage his studies. But someway or other he completed his education and started to work as a chemist in a petrochemical company. But  his dream was not to become a chemist. He wished to become an actor. He was not ready to lie to himself. He moved to Delhi to join a theater group, as he was short of money he started working as a watchman. He worked as a watchman for 4 to 5 years. He slowly started looking for chances in Bollywood. Since he didn’t look like an actor he got rejected and insulted from everywhere. But he didn’t stop there. He continued his hunt. His hardwork  and determination didn’t go in vain. He became a well known Bollywood Actor. 


Did you get his name? Guess I can give you a clue. This is a quote written by him.


“MY EFFORT IS, THAT MY GETUP I SHOULD CONCENTRATE ON HOW DIFFERENT I CAN BE, EVEN MENTALLY. I PRACTICE ACTING EVEN WHEN I HAVE NO WORK. DANCERS AND SINGERS DO IT, SO WHY SHOULDN’T WE”. 


Did you get it? It is none other than the famous Bollywood Actor Nawazuddin Siddique.

If a boy from a farming family who worked as a watchman can become a famous Bollywood Actor with his determination and hard work then why can’t we. Is it because we have more facilities? Why do we lie to ourselves and ignore our passion? Just take it as a task and find it out yourself. 


All the best and Keep moving. Don’t forget to keep your beautiful smile on your beautiful face. Have a superb, enjoyable day.
