We hear all the times that ‘Winners never quit’. They run, fall, wake up and run again but never stop. They are ready to fail hundred times but are never willing to quit. And eventually, the person will achieve the dream. So, never stop, keep moving. But does it really? Life doesn’t work that way. Sometimes life will hit you hard, so hard that you cannot wake up. Will all the risk that you take for the success that you dreamed of is worth all the pain? I don’t say, it is better to quit. But re-thinking is a crucial element. What is the worth, if you jump into the river again and again but you don’t know how to swim or if the flood is very big and it is constantly pushing you back in the riverbank? Re-trying might get drowned ! I have realized that it is important to understand the real value of work that you are doing and its importance to you. How long will it take and is the time worth spending? What is the benefit that you going to have, once you achieve your dream? What is t...

My father prayed a lot, every year, every month, every day and most of the time, multiple times in a day, in morning, daytime and evening. But, what have he achieved from it? First, his commitment towards spirituality has given him a hope. A hope that everything will get better and better in his surroundings. His prayers have kept him strong, moral and optimist, through which he has been able to fight all his physical and mental problems. All his energy gets rejuvenate with the prayer and faith.

And along with our hard work, his prayer and faith has worked well. So, what is the takeaway? Prayers and faith are like water hitting a rock and making the transformation in it. It has a poten...

The lesson that I learned during my 27 years of journey. 1. There is absolutely no substitute for integrity, perseverance and hard work. Both happiness and success mostly depend upon these three key elements. Therefore, it is essential to 'break the comfort' and train oneself every time to be honest, determined and absorbed. 2. Failure is not a step to success. But it does give you an opportunity to rethink about your dream, value, passion, approach, strategy and action. It is not possible to win every time, losing is inevitable, therefore, it is better to get along with the failure. 3. Empowerment cannot be coercive. It should be tied-up and owned by the recipient. Weak ones are simply afraid, lazy or hedonistic to get out of their daily routine. In this case, stress on persistent growth might seem idealistic which create more harm for both the parties. 4. Learn to be alone. There will be a rabble of people with you when they need you but very few people stay when...
