CHASE YOUR DREAMS…I meant go for them !
I recently read a small piece by Sri.Tejomaya Tarun and was really impressed by it….i had to share it ! This was in the context of long-term success and short-term success. Citing an incident from the Ramayana he refers to the ignoble act of Ravana kidnapping Sita and how valiantly Jatayu tried to stave him off .As we all know Ravana chopped off Jatayu’s wings and took Sita away.
The point here is that Ravana succeeded in his efforts at kidnapping Sita. And Jatayu failed in his efforts at trying to save Sita. So Jatayu was a failure and Ravana was successful. What does this show?
That failing in our attempts to do something good is far better than succeeding in doing an ignoble act. In the end it was Jatayu who became a role model and not Ravana.
The point here is that in any action there is an immediate objective and ultimate objective. Ravana’s immediate objective was to kidnap Sita and he succeeded in it. His ultimate objective was to marry Sita but he did not succeed in that. In the case of Jatayu his immediate objective was to save Sita in which he failed, but prevailed in his ultimate objective of saving Sita’s chastity.
Guess we need to look at success and victory in a deeper perspective and not superficially. More often than not small, temporary setbacks block our vision preventing us from looking further. As someone said a situation is never good or bad – it is how one reacts to it that makes it good or bad!

Many of us refuse to begin. Those that do leave half way through not willing to go through the struggle. How then can you savor victory? Go behind your dreams like one possessed and victory shall possess you!

That was wonderful...
I am reminded of The Greatness Guide by Robin Sharma.
He says, 'Leadership is shown by the Human Being who fights the urge to stay under the covers on a cold day and throws on her running shoes to pound the pavement.Not because running miles on a frosty morning is fun.But because it is wise.'
'Those among us who craft extraordinary careers and spectacular lives are those who spend most of their time giving their best out on the extra mile.Yes, ordinary people don't spend much time on the extra mile.But who ever said we were ordinary?'
How true!!!
