It was just a Wish...
There are times in life, when you just feel the urge to quit. Quit things that you've been trying for a long time. Quit things that you once adored. Quit the pleasures and the pains... Its wonderful to think about 'quitting', but for while. Reality bites a very very severe bite. Maybe I dont know what exactly I wish to write today. Perhaps I'm confused. Perhaps I'm not.
Long back I'd a discrete plan of where I wished to be. How many of us can genuinely say they have achieved what they always dreamt of, without being manipulative. Back in my teens, I wished to be a child specialist, I wished to have a pet, I wished to have a boyfriend, I wished to succeed in everything (yea..King Midas touch). Neither of these happened. I look back now and I don't really regret missing out on any of these.
Today, Iwish want to achieve to my goals. I don't want to keep options. Neither do I want to be an option. I may sound aggressive, but that is how it is suppose to be. Unless you don't really "want" something, you wont get it. And if you don't know "what" is that you really want, you will always be slaves to destiny. Have high "expectations". Ditch the saying- "Aim for the Moon - You may land up among the stars". Why compromise? If you aim for the Moon, don't quit until you get it. Being happy with the Stars is like ridiculing your own sweet self. Yes, just a slight change in your attitude and a little more effort can work wonders.
Okay, now that I've let out myself amap, P E A C E ! ;)

I can understand. Dreams and reality belong to different world. So when those dreams don't become reality it does leaves one with sadness.
ReplyDeleteQuitting can be good at times as it might lead one to walk on a road that was never explored

ReplyDeleteYour approach is not at all agressive.
Having a goal in life is as important as breath,it is an identity to your existance.
Unlike some say chasing your desires makes you look like a fool at the end of the life s race..I would ammend it to say,
Aim for what you want ,go for it,
but see that you love the process as much as the end product.
kuch jyada boldiya kya?
:)
good thoughtful post, atleast it made me think a bit and gave my grey cells a kick! ;)
@ Anu,

Perfectly written. Aim for things and then jump into it. Kuch zyada nahi bola. Sahi bola. :)
LOL, yea I too need to kick my grey cells once in a while to avoid rusting.. Damn! ;)
@Yogesh,
ReplyDeleteHmm And yea, Trying to Quit once a while does take one to an altogether different world :P yea yea!
Hey everything whatever you have said is very true. We definitely want to quit at some moment of time.
ReplyDeleteBut in practical scenario analysis the situation. See it very carefully what you want perceive. Situation is not same for everyone. Ofcourse our mental attitude can make in position that you can achieve anything. But opt for the right thing.
There is one law that everyone has to follow. If it is not meant for you, you will not get it. Does not mean you shouldn't try for it. You should try until you get the satisfaction of your trying. "Like you have given the best attempt of your life but now everything i am leaving on the situations."
Believe me when you have this kind of satisfaction for you attempt, you will never feel a pain of quitting.
cheers to that thinking girl...u know some people say leaving it to destiny is just a way to get rid of decision...but sometimes its not so
