Resolve N Solve
Often we regret for not utilizing our abilities to the fullest
resulting in a mediocre performance. We are disappointed with our performances.
We lament for not giving our best and believe that we would have performed
better if we had nurtured ourselves in much better way to accomplish a task. It
is not unusual when most of us make promises to ourselves to change our
life to make more meaningful. Every day we relent on something which really bothers us about our
own personality and we vouch to change it. We make tall claims that we will
soon bring some remarkable change in our lives. But sadly, the impetus stays
with us for a brief period.
We make big resolutions. Every new year we have a big list of
resolutions. But how far have we been successful in bringing the real
change? We show great interest in making
big resolutions but are we really very serious about them? We observe that the intensity
and the conviction slowly fade away.
The irony is we thoroughly understand what ails our lives and
are equipped with the solution to resurrect our lives. We incessantly motivate
ourselves to bring out the best. But that positive drive seems to be so ephemeral.
What is it that is truly lacking from taking our conviction from the stage of
simple motivation to the next stage of serious implementation?
Perhaps the seriousness or the conviction to stick to our new
ideas, beliefs is missing some basic ingredient. Autobiographies of
great men and women are full of rich experiences to be the source of our
motivation. It is an enriching study to know how ordinary people have made
extraordinary contributions in various fields. Most of them led simple lives
and it is heartening to know in some cases how the most adamant and the
culpable people have changed their lives. It is the sudden realization or the inner call
which changes them completely to the core. Thus a phenomenal change can be seen
in overall personality. Realization may seem to be sudden but it the result of
the constant inner urge which compels the person to undergo a sweeping change.
Until unless we have a strong urge to really change no amount
of oath-taking or making resolutions can do the magic. Every human being is
endowed with great abilities. What ultimately matters is the conviction or the commitment
with which we mould our character and personality. There are instances when an
ordinary man with his persistence and firm faith brings about a perceptible and
enviable change in life. Until motivation turns into realization there can’t be
complete and abiding.
