Follow Your Heart...

From the Ink-blots in my Notebook...

Sometimes, your goals seem too close, yet too far. Like, it’s a hard day’s work, taking you no-where. You feel exhausted and lose hope; and, all-the-same, there is a voice inside you that pushes you towards it.

You’ve been with yourself forever, but you just can’t seem to fix the puzzle in your own head, that is, - What do you really want?! May be it’s the closeness that blurs your view; may be standing further along and judging would give you the vantage point you need. May be, it may not.

All you need to do is continue on the path your heart feels is right. Love your family, fear God, and be honest with your day’s piece – you’ll get what you deserve. Don’t leave any stone unturned.

It’s very difficult, sometimes. You think you know what you really want from life, and suddenly you’re without a plan.

May be, that’s it. Life has no plans. Life is unpredictable. You just have to live it. And, the day you reach your goal, however sooner or later it may be, no one can take it away from you. It’s your achievement, you worked for it – No one can take it away from you.

And now, magically, when you look back at the time you spent, you see the plan unfold. All this while, when you were flustered, now seems like a good day’s work – your journey to success.

May be that’s all life is about – being truthful. It’s way too simple. Wonder how people manage to complicate it?!

Doing what you love best shall never let you down. Failure shall not hurt you easy and success shall not render you proud. It shall humble you – give you an odd sense of unsettlement in your heart, to push yourself a little more, and compete with yourself. Cause, that’s the real measure of competition – open and the toughest, where you challenge your own faculties. Mind over mind!

Think over it. May be, you’re wrong. Yes, you have been with yourself all your life. But, make sure you aren't seeing yourself in the light of how others perceive you. There’s a little voice inside your heart trying to scream out what you would really covet. You’re dimming that sound within the drone of the world’s expectations. Nevertheless, you hear that voice humming.

Think really hard before you decide – Are you judging yourself too much?
