“When
you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project, all your
thoughts break their bounds. Your mind transcends limitations, your
consciousness expands in every direction, and your find yourself in a new,
great, and wonderful world. Dormant forces, faculties, and talents become
alive, and you discover yourself to be a greater person by far than you ever
dreamed yourself to be”.

Patanjali
Just when I was thinking to myself of many of my
own limitations, in terms of time and other resources, the above extract from
Patanjali, caught my eyes and gave me great courage and inspiration. It made me realize that it is the inner fire
that sets the pace of our action. Just like a rocket sets out to the sky with
the type of inner combustion, we too also need to develop the inner fire that
drives our goals. It is the belief on our own ability, the re-assurance we give
to ourselves , the level of enthusiasm with which we approach a situation, that
makes the difference in the results of our action.
We have to believe that we are a wonderful person
and that we are a once-in-all-history event. We have the duty and a right to be
whom we are capable of. We have to believe that life is not a problem to solve,
but a gift to cherish. We have to
believe that we are our greatest asset and that there is nothing we cannot do.
We also need to believe that no one can keep us from dreaming and that we alone
can stop our dream coming true. Our achievements are determined by the desire
that we possess. We have to discover who we are and what we are capable of. It
is not a matter of fate, but it is the systematic application of effort that
will make us what we want to be. We need workable ideas to make our exciting
dreams come true.
Wishing
that all your dreams come true..
Happy Reading,
