ARE YOU STAGNANT ??

My Humble Pranams to all...!! Have you ever been across this saying which is “If you don’t have the courage to change yourself then nothing around you will change” and I think, Its very important for us in life to resonate with this. When we were probably one to three-year-old, the urge to improve or to develop any skills on day by day basis would have been more but as we reach adulthood the feel eventually dies somewhere within us and the result of which is that we try to pick up a comfort zone and happily stay in it. We then tend to assume that we are so much contended in life like how a frog in a well as likely thinks of after having jumped into it. But when later the thought strikes out for the frog, that it must come out of the same well to explore the world then it will realise how much time and life it has wasted in the well thinking that it was contended. Its necessary that we must have the interest and enthusiasm to explore everyday and the best competition is with the person you were yesterday. Once we start learning every day, we will tend to have a broader perspective for understanding and also have ability to adapt to new situations. It indeed make us more inspiring and also it will deepen our character and make us a more of a confident person. To develop this innate habit its important to follow the news and keep us updated with current events, read books, opt out for a class or watch online videos and most importantly also build a circle of friends who you can look up to. As we age gracefully each day its important to not give up on fire to explore which essentially every individual had it as a child. Many successful persons are born because of this ability to explore. For example, McDonalds founder Ray Kroc had invested in the business only at the age of 52 and at that age most of us would have been planning for retirement. Change is only constant thing happening in our lives and how we change each day matters down to choices we make and when we put in our constant effort to be a better person the success will be just a cup of tea. Recollecting this famous saying of Winston Churchill, “ To improve is to change; to be perfect is to change often.” I hope that we all will make efforts to make our life perfect…!!
