Courage Tenacity Clarity towards goals

By -
In the lonely and dark evenings of Abbottabad, one begins to feel the warmth of the heating system (be it gas heater or electric heater) is beginning to diminish after every passing moment. The following quotes remind one to move forward.

"When desire is mixed with faith backed by massive action, the probable becomes possible, every time. No exceptions. -Tina Su"

"Every moment of your life is infinitely creative and the universe is endlessly bountiful. Just put forth a clear enough request, and everything your heart truly desires must come to you." -excerpt from Creative Visualization by Shakti Gawain

Courage

Courage is the strength required to go after the glorious goals set forth in the youthful years. Even the education from the finest schools and universities of Pakistan or the world over fails to breed the spirit of the courageous. True they say strength and courage can never be taught. Is it something built in or does it require one to go through a modern curriculum of human psychology to build?

Tenacity

When tenacity is sprinkled on courage the fruits which delivered are second only to Adam's (Eve's) Apple in terms of desire. If courage is the fuel for change then tenacity is the vehicle. Tenacity is determination to achieve the goals. Courage kick starts the process which can only be culminated via steadfastness and belief in those goals.

Clarity

The second quote talks of boundless endowment capabilities of the universe. All is within reach and all one has to do is to put forth a request. The word request is qualified by a very interesting adjective "clear". Clarity of thought , courage , tenacity of these three clarity of thought is extremely difficult to attain.
Human mind is designed to forget if one loses this capability one might not be able to rise from the depths of sorrow or pain. Clarity of thought is possible by using this faculty of the human mind. Forgetting everything, banishing every thought out of the mind and then focus only on the task at hand leads one to dream up the goals and then once the ideas have been imagined clearly then all that is left is execution.

More on execution later.

    A firm belief in God provides the courage, tenacity and clarity towards goals. Where man falters, God helps him execute
    "God made Truth with many doors to welcome every believer who knocks on them.
    Kahlil Gibran"

    God is witness to every action/inaction and mere forgetfulness may not nullify the repurcussions of inaction.

    Forgetfulness mentioned here is not in a bad manner. In fact its mentioned here as a technique to focus on the issue at hand.

Daily habits that can help winning the battles to ultimately win the war Photo by  Ana Juma  on  Unsplash Its been more than three decades since I gained the wisdom to take care of myself. This indeed has been a roller coaster ride and with its ups and downs. There were more ups than downs but we tend to remember the downs more than necessary. In the years I have cultivated a plan to go about my daily chores so as to ensure that my goals are met and I am happy domain. It works most of the time but sometimes I falter in these habits.

Learning from failures

By -
How to tweek your life to use failures to succeed I am reading Scott Adam’s ‘ How to Fail at Almost Everything and Still Win Big: Kind of the Story of My Life ’. One of the most important messages in this book is ‘always use failures to reorient your life for success. Its easier said than understood. Its easy to feign understanding it and its extremely difficult to implement it in your life. I believe the author has done a great job in explaining. I would like to break it down to the following steps. When have you failed? Most important part of the whole cycle is that you fail to understand when have you failed? Life is a continuous process and it never stops. So the clear signal of failure is never there. There are symptoms and indirect evidence. However its very late to realize that the we have failed. If something is failing the first attempt is to salvage and don’t allow it to fail. People who have anticipated failure early in the work and developed parameters / benchmark...

The Religion War by Scott Adams

By -
If God's Debris was an insight into man's inside then Religion War is a commentary on current social atmosphere. The character of Avatar continues to amaze the reader with pattern resolution and extraction. However there is a change here the old avatar is long dead and taken over by the delivery man  of "God's debris". The stakes are much higher and Muslims vs Christian-Judea Alliance are at the verge of war. This is not going to be just another war but a war where billions will perish. In this scenario the avatar comes forward and tries to resolve the conflict between the two parties. But before that the avatar has to go through a long process of developing confidence in the two parties that avatar can be trusted. The Religion War is about how Al-Qaeeda will grow unless the West re-thinks its policy towards Muslims and how the Al-Qaeeda is using bad methods to solve deep rooted issues. Reading through the book you don't start liking either party but at the ...
