What if i can???

I don't want to save the world
I don't want to buy white pearls
I don't want to fulfill any need
All I want is to SUCCEED.

I don't want to own a car
I don't want to travel far
I don't want to do good deed
All I want is to SUCCEED.

Success..... What a beautiful word. Everyone wants to be Successful. But only few among us have the right to say "I am successful".Ever wondered what is it in those lucky ones that others don't have? I took some time out to do exactly that and came out with some ideas.
After a long research on this issue(that lasted for the past one hour), I came up with a term called as "What if I can" Attitude.

Some days back I had suggested a friend to pursue post graduation. My friend replied "I cant do it buddy! I don't think I am able enough".Most of us belong to the same category. Without even knowing what lies on the road to our destination we quit saying its not possible. Only the people who say "What if I can do it" actually succeed. The great inventors and discoverers were definitely of this breed. There were other people who consistently tried to prove these inventors wrong. However these achievers had the "What if I can" attitude that propelled them towards their achievements.

Upon facing a difficult challenge the easiest thing to say is "I cannot do it". Imagine if everyone does the same thing what would happen. We won't have heroes among us. Whom would we look up as our idols? We wont have any ambitions in life because fulfilling your ambition means facing difficulties and that cannot be done by saying "I cannot do it". But there are some among us who say "I can do it" and when others say "Its impossible for you to do it" these people say "What if I can". These few words can make all the difference between an average person and an achiever.

If "What if I can" is the first question you ask yourself before doing any seemingly difficult task then the last thing you say would be "Just did it".

Anuzzer wonderful post! :) You seriously need to think on renaming your blog to "Priceless Thought of the Fortnight" or something. Its quite nice to see you touch on the topics which revolve around ethics and morality and "self-appraisal" which many refrain from. Hope to see more such fantastic posts in the coming year! :)

Well is life really about the kinds of achievements you mention? And is it not the case that those who did achieve things that you've heard about differed from others in their ability rather than saying "what if I can?"

Forgive me, I like to argue. Ignore me and I will shut up. best wishes

About Me

My photo
Describing myself is the most confusing task ever. I have many forms. I have been the biggest prankster at school and also the most serious thinker at college. I was the carefree,I-dont-give-a-damn attitude guy and also the most caring and loving person. I have been the rock solid emotionless freak and also the crying baby in my mother's arms. Life has metamorphosed me into various forms and would continue to do it. All that is original about me is my heart which would never change. Sorry I cannot describe it as it is far too complex. All you need to know about me is I am Suheil Karkera
