Starting this post with a thought provoking quote which I heard from Niyaz,
“If you want more from life…
..get up early.
You will have plenty of time to sleep when you are dead.”
Each and every second in our life we are indulged in a war.A war against the most dangerous evil in this world, laziness.
Based on the winner of the war, we can categorize people into 3 groups :
1) At the end of the war, they will conquer laziness and they will become masters.He is a successful man.
2)They don’t fight as much as they can.Still,will give a try and at the end they will let laziness to rule them.They become slaves of laziness.
3)They don’t even know a war is going on.They just think that what they do is perfect.They do all the passive things like watching TV,sleeping and chatting some useless things which don’t require brain.Their only aim is to make money somehow and they live for it.
Want to know to which category you belong to?
Try to recollect the things which you did last year.
If your achievement list has only one or two items like:
a) worked in a company and got 1 year experience certificate and b)I had fun with my friends, then no need to read further.You belong to third group and now only thing you can do is “Self realization”. Try to find out why you are in this world?
If you are able to recollect some more items then go ahead.Now I can say that you belong to second category; first group will not spend time to read this because from heading itself they can know that this is not useful for them.
I need second group of people to go ahead.You wish to do a lot of things and you have the potential.But you just don’t know how to start it and the main problem with you is your laziness.
The only thing you can do to get rid of your enemy is :
Get up at 5 in the morning.Take a decision that you will get up and will not let your alarm snooze for some more time.Because if you do so then you will get up only after 8.Always you should have a control over yourself which will help you to win the war.
Find out what all things you can do today which can be included in your next year’s achievement list.You can think of something you are passionate about..something which you always wanted to do..but you never did because of your laziness.You will say you dropped your idea because you realized it is impossible.You will not blame laziness. Just think..If you try with all your energy,with all your strength, with all your interest, you can make your dream true rt?The only thing is you should feel that “you want it”.
In my opinion, there are 3 things which everyone can/must do:
1)Get up early(Don’t sit lazy/don’t sleep for a long time)
2)Read, read and read.Give importance to quality.(After reading a lot you have to use your knowledge in some useful way.May be you can try writing something,who knows you may be a good writer!!)
3)Do exercise daily or some activities which can keep you fit.(This will help you to improve both your physical and mental health)
Guys, go ahead and make things happen.It is always better to make good things happen than to wait for the worse things to happen.Do the things that make you feel good about yourselves.
Don’t say you don’t have enough time. You have exactly the same number of hours per day that were given to Helen Keller, Pasteur, Michelangelo, Mother Teresa, Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Jefferson, and Albert Einstein.
