Failing to fear the insecurities is the strength

Birkarnelzelzit Thiyam *



Have you heard that your neighbours hate you? Have you realized that many are waiting for you to fail? And lastly, haven’t you heard that people are so excited whenever you quit trying? So, when quitting sense hits you hard, forcing you to give up, remember that you are garlanding excitement to your enemies.

How many problems have you overcame so far? Countless, yet you still welcome fresh problems with the same old fear-of-failing you had long ago, why? Because, you have overcome problems but not the fears.

If conquering problem is what your life seeks, get up now and kill the fear in you, because that’s the real problem and you have been just solving example questions for your whole life.

Even if you solve 100 example questions, your heart always beats loud in the exam day but if you once rock the exam paper, you killed it completely, and I know all have experienced this.

I know, you are tired with tensions, I understand you are packed up with unhatched dreams in your heart, I feel your fear in your hearts looking for hope and chances.

I have heard people saying that the only reason that stopped him from becoming a singer was his father, the only matter that disturbed her from becoming a doctor was financial deficiency, and trust me this people deserves to be unsuccessful and they will never be successful because they try to look for resources but never thought of being resourceful, they looked for people to help them but never thought of helping themselves, and most importantly they only want to prove but not improve which makes them think that somebody will come and water their dreams.

There are a lot people who goes for astrology to know the future but not accept it, they go in support of their fears, because they are insecure of their present, so they seek for mediums that can show them a glimpse of their TOMORROW. And there is a reason why astrologers die in road accidents, because astrology is business that plays with your fear.

If you want to live a life where you no longer use snooze button every morning, where you no longer wait for only weekends to smile, where you no longer cry for taking leave from workplace, all you need to do is this one thing – do what your damn heart wants.

And while chasing your dream, there is nothing call good or bad, it’s all about you are strong enough or not.

Let me throw this question to those parents who think their children are weak like them, “Why would you think that your children are born to fulfil your dreams? Why do you think that what you plan for them is the best? Why do you think that they should only do whatever you want?” because you gave birth to them?

Or because you raised them? You sometimes tend to forget that they are humans, if you want everything to be done in the way you want, “why don’t you get a German Shepherd?”

Some mistakes are not committed due to carelessness but over-carefulness, some dreams are not fulfilled due to fear of failing but fear of trying, some people suicides in the name of killing the problem but all it does was ‘passing on,’ some leaders are created but those who are born as a leader – they will suffer like Rahul Gandhi, some problems are meant to be ignored – like fighting with your neighbour every-day, some hopes are not just an immature dream but a tissue paper while you are crying for giving up.

Before this article finishes, let’s do one thing, try to remember an incident in your past, where you now regret for if you had little more courage – then you could have changed your life; remember? And one year from now, you will feel the same about this day, for had you got a little more strength – then you should have lived with smiles.

Yes, I am talking about this day – today, trust me, you need to push yourself a little more if you don’t want to regret for the rest of your life.
