I loved this para and can’t seem to read it less.
It was never true until I conceived the idea of SuperIndianKid. Until then, I was toiling on several things that have been already done millions of times in the past by millions of people. The passion was not there, until I truly started thinking for kids and their well beings. I have to thank my two babies for always jumping in front of me and making my neuron think only and always about them.
I do not find any comment or any person trying to dodge me off my track. Every thing is crystal clear in my mind. I know what I want to do. I know how I want to execute. I know who will be able to work with me. I know how and what are the difficulties I will have to face. I know who I should value and how I must avoid like plague. I am so sure that I have to make a movie on the making of the SuperIndianKid. I know it’s costing me a bomb per day, yet I want to shoot the whole 60 days of the first batch.
I’m not literally asking the question, but posing a question that we face every day. This is something we think about in all the different decisions we go through in life. It can range from career, financial and personal matters that are all dear to us. I’ve got a slightly different perspective on this topic.
All my life – I’ve faced this dilemma and I’ve realized the formula that works for me. I choose to run. Whatever the situation maybe, but when that inexplicable feeling inside me tells me to go for it – I choose to listen to it. What I’ve realized is that when you decide to go 110% on your chosen path, the energy and time you normally would put at the fear of failure – goes away. You have no option to fail and you choose to put all your energies on the positives. Failure never becomes an option and it shouldn’t be. Life doesn’t always work that way – but the chances are – if you build your DNA to grow a wall that can eliminate any negative noise – your chance of success just grows astronomically. Always stand up for what you believe or want. That inner voice is your friend.
Now – I’m not saying I jump into everything “gung-ho” – there are limitations here. Look at the state of our economy it’s the result of the build-up from the credit crisis we face today. That’s a mistake that’s costing many Americans and the overall economy dearly. The difference here is – separating tangible risk with material risk. If we choose to invest materially into something that we can’t have control of – like money – the risk of failure increases. However, if we choose to invest our time, focus, energy, discipline, values on all the tangible goals we have in life – you begin to build that inner-confidence that defines your DNA to succeed.
Infact till today I have encountered only one person who tried to question the concept of SuperIndianKid. My reaction to try understand his reasoning. But realized he was unclear and had no reason to even argue against or for. Dropped him from my list of trust worthy people.
