Motivation is one part of story, Inspiration is other. But the part I'll be talking about is the part on triggering the start button.
Yes many of us might have tried, many of us may get inspired, for almost everyone SRK or Steve Jobs or N. Murthy are their idol. They want to be like that, they are inspired, they are motivated, they have a dream and most importantly they have an idea.
So what is an idea?
An idea is like a virus, dangerous like HIV or can be bacterial also. But an idea may not be unique but is your first achievement in your life. Getting an idea to do something is the God's greatest gift. Some of us utilize it and some sometimes just let it go, or if I am not wrong most of us.
So what is stopping us:
- Laziness, yes we are lazy, we don't want to push ourselves to the extremes, even I am lazy, but when it comes to my passion that is writing I have never stopped myself to write all night long also.
- From above point comes the passion, we lack it, we are doing something because everyone has told us to do, our parents insisted us so we are either doctor, engineer or lawyer but not an artist or an entrepreneur, our culture is like that.
- Culture, culture sucks sometimes, sometimes it saves us. We need to identify what is right or what is wrong in it, like respecting elders is a good part, but if they take it for granted and play with our lives that is the bad thing, we need to think about it.
- Think, yes we think too much, what will society think, what are the pros and cons and we never proceed. We will ask too many people & too many question which indirectly making us loosing our interest and in return its causing a big loss that is sharing of your birth right that is your idea.
- An idea, we will get it but we will never hit the start button. Why - points are above explained somewhat in detail.
- Detail - Detail is the thing most of us don't dive into. But we should go in deep of our idea and try to ask ourselves, am I really going to do it, is it my passion will it give me any result or is it just a time pass waste of time or energy and in the end it will be going to shut down. These details are spiritual as well as materialistic.
- Materialist - look for profit but first look for your passion, if your passion is to only earn money than you can do it with you MBA degree also. But if it's not your passion and you are getting materialistic then you will never be able to hit the start button.
- I am not pro Microsoft but we need to hit the start button - Start button is the button from where the world begins and end to the bright future.
In the whole journey after the start button is clicked, we will fail, we will be on our knees, we will get rejected, dejected and bashed severely. We will loose hope and we will blame destiny also. Tears will be there as well as Sacrifice and that's how a diamond is made. And when a diamond is made, Everyone knows its value.
We all have a diamond in us, we all can shine like never before. We all have dreams and we can all become what we had thought of.
Who we are, we are normal guys, who wants to touch the sky.
