From childhood, we were asked what we want to be in life and we deliberately reply doctor, engineer, painter, pilot. But have you ever thought about what you will do after becoming what you want to? is that really all you want?
The real goal for life is being happy and positive in all the circumstance. Your happiness parameter should not be any other materialistic thing. we should be more focused on how we could able to cherish life, else we only chase goals.
Enjoy the process of being happy:
Your journey should matter more than your success or failure. In the process of chasing we often forget this. Suppose you are working on a project with the team. You work, laugh, share knowledge, spend time together. But that product ends up not being market-ready. Felt a little disheartened? but instead of that, you should cherish the journey of the product. The learning you made, the network you have created. Enjoy the journey, Success lies in the journey, not in the end goals.
Follow your heart not others footstep:
As a student, I have faced this many times that our seniors are doing this, and getting successful. So I also want to do it and hence think if I do these certain things then only I could be successful. Almost everyone among us does idealize success by the defined path. Let me tell you the story, Sundar Pichai one of the known face, and Gauranga Prabhu the monk who earn in millions. both are from the same batch, in the same engineering college. But both have chosen a different path for success and both are successful in their lives, both are satisfied in their life. This live example taught us that success does not have a defined way. So before following some other footsteps remember this.
It's never too late to start over :
The first and most challenging step towards the goal is to get started. There is no specific time to start anything, the hard work is the key to get yourself at the same level. Some became rich in their 20s but some in their 50s. it's not that time matters it's achieving the goal that matters. The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Failure is learning not the end:
Failure is proof of trying. It always teaches you something in terms of professional, personal anything. Life has lots of opportunities to grab so don’t stop in the middle, keep going and you will surely land on the moon, maybe not on Saturn’s moon but on Earth’s moons. Having small failure is always an asset to you, it gives you a list of mistakes you did and an aspiring story for life. Some bad incidence does not lead to a bad story, sometimes its leads to the best story. Make mistakes, keep learning, keep moving. Happiness often sneaks through the door you didn’t know you left open.
Conclusion:
Life’s too short to waste your time doing things that don’t light your fire. If you don’t enjoy what you’re doing or aren’t having a lot of fun, despite the fact that you’re making a lot of money or rubbing shoulders with the rich and famous then it’s time to move on to something that does make you happy. Make your life a masterpiece, don’t let it ruin by small hurdles.
