Dare to be an Entrepreneur?

Like most people, I too look upon, admire, drool over people who have the guts to chuck their jobs and proclaim themselves “Entrepreneurs”. The word in itself has so much of passion and power: As if haughtily stating “I`m the boss of my own life”- As if you`ve been crowned the Ruler of an empire: You create your own path and people would follow. What an unimaginable luxury!! (At least you don`t have to threaten your boss saying you are preparing a suicidal note if he has plans to cancel your leaves. Sigh...)

As attractive as it might seem, being an entrepreneur has its own pros and cons.  It`s a definite “No No” for the faint hearted. The decision in itself requires a hell lot of courage (to chuck your financial security) and chase your bigger dreams neglecting the HUGE risk factor (mission failed factor :P).

What differentiates these conquerors from the rest?

They see their dreams and their passions above everything else. They have this burning desire to see their dreams getting materialized. In short they are just making their lives worth living, unlike the majority of us who are totally content being mediocre.  I love the quote below:

So I thought BIG.. I asked myself: Can I become an entrepreneur: boss of my own life with minimal risk involved, very less time invested, working in the freedom of my home, so that I can reap maximum profit, eventually to  chuck my job and  to have the financial freedom to do whatever I want to whenever I want to?

My li`l heart whispered back: May be...!!!

Annddd... Pooff!!! It all came true...

All it needed was an initial thought and here I am, proclaiming myself a budding Entrepreneur. :D

Too good to be true...right?  But... Would you say a NO had you been given a chance?

Being Unrealistic???

Has life rendered you totally befuddled and confused?  You think you should be doing one thing whereas your family and friends think otherwise. You read in books that you ought to listen to your heart and when you try doing that your ears are filled with the shrieks of people pouring out their bad experiences and advising you against it. You want to soar high, but your wings are strongly tethered to the ground and you doubt if breaking free is ever a wise decision, as you have seen myriad people who dared to break their bonds returning back despondent with broken wings, only to sing stories of their failures and dejections. Albeit you know that it is impossible to remain totally contented or feel satisfied with your life if you plan to stay where you currently are. Is this the usual heart-brain conflict?

 Well in cases regarding relationships, your heart overrules your brain and it usually comes back with bruises and cuts.  Still you feel it`s worth a try. Why can`t one apply the same rule when it comes to this innate desire or this so called “purpose of life”?  Is it because this time it`s riskier than your loved one crushing your heart and chucking you out of their lives? Am I strong enough, to challenge failure and look at it in the eye and shout at my loudest of voices “BRING IT ON”...???

Why is it so damn tougher to apologise to your sibling and resolve a tiff than to reach a consensus with your colleagues after an altercation? Why is it so hard to show even a fraction of guts that you use to convince your boss, to talk to your dad about your dreams? Why is it that one is left without words when one wants to argue about one`s beliefs and values while the opponent lays down facts and results in front of you?.. and people say from time to time that its quarter life crisis that`s pulling you down.

Well, I guess I am wiser than accepting that this crisis is just a phase of life and is something that should pass. What would you want to name the crisis that arrives when you are in your 30s, what about the 40s, the 50s and thereafter? Hard and fast rule of life: Life ain`t without its faults. Life is not easy, face it. Accepting the fact that crisis is not something that pops up in front you just to surprise you , but something that comes along as a part of life, would help you deal with it in a better way and may be its high time I accepted that.

There are certain things in life that can only be felt and not expressed through words. People call it the gut feeling which if doesn`t work out, nothing else would. There is no logical explanation as to why you love a certain person or want to take up a profession. It becomes difficult when people start asking you for reasons. It is said that your feelings and thoughts are more important than words and in a world which transcends words, you just need your thoughts to communicate. If you think of thoughts that makes you feel good and happy, then everything else is set right automatically. So, if thoughts and feelings are that powerful, is it not more important to trust your heart`s desires than your brain`s logic ? If that`s the case and if one already knows one`s life`s purpose (which is something that most people are still trying to figure out), shouldn`t he/she feel luckier and start chasing those dreams at any cost?

You might not be strong today, but life would surely bring the necessary experiences to you that would make you strong enough to face any hurdle. Most of us are impatient and can`t wait for the right time for the right things to happen. So it`s okay to not know the answers to all your questions.  You have only a few pieces of the jigsaw puzzle right now and crying over the fact that you don`t have the complete picture is mere foolishness. If we tie our lives to real goals and try out best to work towards it, God lets the different pieces of the jigsaw puzzle fall into the right places and one fine morning it will be revealed to you. You are more likely to attract the right person to your life when you focus on what you are meant to do. An added advantage of chasing your dreams enh?? Now that`s the rule of life.

Still thinking of the friends who came back with bruised wings to narrate sad stories?? Think of the greater number of friends whose wings are intact and are soaring higher and higher just because they believed in their dreams and trusted their instincts no matter what.

My True Goal

Evolving from the pyre of ashes,

Like a new born phoenix,

I see the grossness ablaze,

that was once a part of me.

Always a seeker, now a preacher,

Hungry for answers, I wandered about,

Asking , Why do I live,

What`s the purpose of my life.

Like the age old adage that says,

Everything has Its Time, I waited and waited,

 Until I met my Master,

 Who resided within me, my reflection he was .

I saw the answers unveiled,

and the mysteries revealed,

I was told “It could never be explained,

Only be experienced”.

I stared at the truth, with an addled brain,

Drowned in the enigma of doubts and belief,

I asked myself, what should I take,

And what I must reject.

Patient I was all the while,

Mind is the trickster and the sole culprit,

For I realised the only way through,

Was to put the culprit behind bars.

Fickle minded, yes I was,

But stronger was the determination ,

To follow the path to self realisation,

For I yearned to rediscover myself every millisecond.

Who are you to judge them, to change them?

You want to see change?

Try changing yourself for a change,

You wouldn`t dare, for that`s the most difficult change.

Change is inevitable, change is invincible,

Change brings about progress and advancements,

I surrendered completely to Him,

For He promised to bring about a positive change.

Too small I am to know what liberation is,

Yet I trusted Him to the core of my heart,

Not for what He could give to me,

But for reasons unknown.

They say that Love can conquer all,

And so right they were,

For I felt divinity filling me from within,

When I filled myself with love.

I slowly realised that the world is a huge mirror,

That merely reflects your actions,

He urges you to do good,

If goodness is what you seek.

I still am in the voyage of life,

Searching for the unfound,

To experience the never experienced,

To feel the never felt,

To unfold the mysteries,

To realise my true goal,

To meet my true Master,

Who resides at the other end, in the brighter world.

 Love, devotion and Joy,

These three loyal horses now pull my cart,

The cart of spirituality ,that can take me quite far,

As far as pure infinity.

I love my goal,

I love my mission,

I love my Master and,

I would follow Him until eternity.

------The end-----

Introduction

Me: A simple human being with unique characteristics like anybody else, for whom life is an endeavour, who wonders the reason for her very existence, who finds life fascinating and dull at the same time, who enjoys the simple joys of life but yet wants to conquer the world.

My Beliefs: Each second is an endeavour towards perfection, towards the true goal, towards what we ought to be, towards infinity. Even as the nuances of life flashes its umpteenth shade upon you, just keep the spark within your heart alive; let it not be washed away with the untimely hurricanes or whirlwinds. Remember that destruction is a pre-requisite for creation. Just think, believe, imagine, feel, act and be : It is as simple as that.

Hope you would have great fun with me in this joy ride.
