Be the Lion, Not the Sheep

Goals, aims, aspirations, desires, wishes, they all refer to the same thing. Yes, they are different if you see them technically but for a normal person, these all things are same. They mean the same to a common man.

Bringing bread to the table, having a car, a house to live in, a job to work and a few investments here and there to support your retirement. What’s the use of living life so little? By no means, I am against the principle of simple living, yes, the happiness of life resides in small things like having dinner with your family on a small table, that warmth, love, care and laughter with each other can never be experienced by you in a 7-star restaurant. But what I suggest you to do is :-

Why not think BIG? 
Why not think of having a bigger house? 
Why not think of driving a Lamborghini or an Aston Martin? 
Why not make your childhood dreams true? 
Why not go for the lion instead of chasing the sheep? 
Why not take your dreams to a new level every time you step out on your playing field of work? 
Why not go to the extremes and push yourself a bit harder?

Believe me; you just need to feel “that feel” for once. Life will show you something you’ve never felt. I’ve felt that the moment you step out of your comfort zone and you enter the region of the uncomfortable, your freedom starts to display itself.

Go to the limits. Go to your extremes. Go and make your dreams come true. No matter how much the people criticize you or try to knock you down, don't buy into their opinion. Actually, all those naysayers who bring you down, they are jealous of you. They are jealous of the genius in you. They are jealous of the expertise in you. They very well know that your future life will be better than theirs, and they can't see that, that's why they are constantly trying to bring you down.

Well, this is the habit of the mediocrity. Once it notices anyone from its crowd getting up and trying to get out of it, the mediocrity crowd pushes the person back into the crowd sucks it back into the wormhole of mediocrity. And many of the geniuses remain living as mediocrity whole of their life !

I really don't want that to happen to you. I still can't estimate how much human potential is remaining to be tapped which is currently trapped in this black hole of mediocrity. 

Every day you step out of your home for work, remind yourself to do the best way whatever you do. And yes, life is so small. Why have small goals for it? When you're very much hungry what would you like to have? A small packet of French fries or some 2-3 burgers to satisfy your hunger?

That's the same way your inner soul is. It has hunger for success, dreams, to change the world, to make an image in the society, and most importantly… hunger for significance. Hunger for leaving behind a legacy, that's what I am all about, and I know that's what you're all about.

So why live among the sheep when you know you're a lion? A lion born to rule. A lion born to live for his dreams to get his dreams. so, be a lion, not the sheep.

Sir Richard Branson said it so beautifully that “ if your dreams don't scare you, they are too small “

Stay motivated. Stay excited. Stay happy.
