Some of the commonest comments people make are,
“Sir I’m trying my best, but nobody joins”
“Sir I don’t know what is the problem with people – nobody is interested in their health”
“Sir it’s not like those days when you joined.
You are all lucky”
All these are invented by minds who take comfort in such alibis for failure. Success is not the fruit that is simply hanging in any tree for anyone to pluck and eat. Each has to sow his own seed, nurture with proper materials, watch it grow and then only enjoy the fruits.
Soil is the same that helps grow the tree. So it is in the hands of the tiller to develop, prepare, nurture and grow. The Meaning is you need to empower yourself to perform. There is something blocking between the cup and the lip. Identify the block. It’s no use blaming all others except yourself for failure.
Clay becomes Image
All know that the cost of clay is just 5 cents. A person saw in that clay a tremendous business opportunity. So he simply used his hands and made a nice looking beautiful image and sold it for 2 Dollars.
Another guy made the image and painted it with multi colors and sold the same material for 10 Dollars. Another great skilled guy dressed it with colorful cloth and sold it for 25 Dollars. Some other superman made a nice image out of the same 5 cent clay, colored it, clothed it, put that in a glass case and kept it in a 5 Star Hotel and sold it for 100 Dollars. Yet another made it a little dull looking, showcased it in glass and sold it for 200 Dollars as a very rare antique piece.
What do we learn from this? Clay is the same. The only difference is the Mind and Hands that work on the clay. When everyone was just kicking the clay someone saw an opportunity in the same material. Unless you assume that every person next to you is clay (I'm not trying to belittle anyone by saying he is clay – I just want to use it as an analogy to bring home understanding and not to offend anyone) and he throws open an opportunity for you to succeed and it is in your hands to make an image out of him, you will keep on finding alibis only. Opportunity is just next to you. Are you skilled enough to convert that into cash, is the only question you have to pose to yourself?
Mind Tuning
Tune your mind into looking everything as an opportunity. Never succumb to negative thoughts. That will become a habit later on. Once you fail, it doesn’t mean you will fail always. Once you fail 10 times that doesn’t mean you will fail the 11th time. It is just that the clay didn’t become the image. That’s all. Use either the same clay or find new clays. They are plenty in this world. Your Mind must be tuned only to creating images and improvising that.
Friends,
Superiority of a Product is in the Hands of the owner
The talented owner sees only ways to succeed
He has no time to invent alibis.
