Pessimism in life will distort the growth



If you analyze the characteristics of various people, you can categorize them broadly in three different categories.  For the first category, they never say no to any work, they may not be successful all the time, but the die-hard attitude prompts them to try and in this process after many attempts, they become successful partially, if not fully. These people are full of confidence and love, they never get angry and feel that one can touch any benchmark and one can transcend any hurdles, provided the mental power and thoughts are always positive. They are ready to face all sorts of challenges in life. For the second category, they always see the situation as gloomy, they worry most of the time. They drown not because they decide wrongly to jump in the water; they drown because they never taste the depth of the water with an assessment of their abilities confidently. These people are lack of stamina to combat the odd situations. They are expert to criticize other’s activities and discourage and provoke others  not to try or do  anything.  The third category is the type of persons who are mostly the followers without exercising their own power of confidence and mental ability. They merely accept any work from their buddies, bosses or their superiors and discharge the same. They never bother to find out whether their accomplishment is purposeful or not.

To substantiate the above hypothesis, let us afresh the story of two frogs. One of them is big and the other one is small.  Due to some mistake, both of them fell down into a pail of milk. The sides of the pail were slippery, making the frogs unable to climb and come out. The frogs were trying their best to stay alive.  They desperately need oxygen for their survival. On every occasion, whenever they try to rise above the level of milk to inhale oxygen, they could not do so because of slippery surfaces, and ultimately they fell down.  They struggled very hard to come out.  During this struggle, the big frog could not sustain and ultimately died.  The small frog also struggled very much, and in this struggle, he was getting more stubborn, rigid and determined to remain alive. So, he paddled continuous hours after hours.  Because of his continuous paddling, the milk starts getting a bit solidified and butter was formed because of churning motion.  No sooner, the milk got converted into butter and become a little solid, the small frog  got a base and jumped out. This fable proves that if you don’t lose your confidence and if you are determined to cross any barriers, you can do so.  The habit of less confidence, always be pervaded with anxieties and negative happenings, will not only reduce your tenacity to get successful, but also will pollute your judgement. Many negative thoughts like “I cannot do this particular work, because it is very tough,” “I will never pursue my studies in mathematics as I am very weak in that subject,” or “I will not be able to score a good mark in my ensuing examination,” always spoil your energy and enthusiasm and these are predominantly found out in the people, who mostly have a pessimistic outlook for their life. To such a person, success and achievement are almost like shifting a mountain.  As per the research findings, the people on  an average pass through around 80000 thoughts  daily. Out of all these thoughts, eighty percent are negative and most of these are repetitive. This reminds us that we think in the same pattern days after days. When you continually think in negative pattern, the same gets entrenched in the brain so deeply that you tend to act in a particular pattern, which always goes against your wish.


: 2 :

Special effort is needed to remove negative thoughts, so that the brain is tuned to think in terms of positive only. To get rid of negative thoughts, one must avoid to identify the thoughts either as good or bad.  You have to pretend that these thoughts evolve from your collective consciousness and you have no control what enters your brain. So, You must ignore them by your power of assessing  just like the spectators watch  sports. In any field of competitive game, a spectator is always watching from outside and so in the case of any of your thoughts, if you can inculcate this  similar type of behavior, you will not be bothered whether the thoughts are negative or positive one.  Further, to avoid negativity, you fill up your mind always with constructive thoughts.  We all know that an idle brain is the workshop of a devil.  When your mind is vacant, the negative thoughts get a chance to enter and influence you to act negatively. Further, to overcome the power of negativity, you involve yourself in deep meditation to get connected with positive energy, the source of which flowing the cosmic current  within you. Further, invoke the power of your mental stamina and vision power based on the above postulates regularly. Engage your mind forcibly to oust negative thinking.  In your daily meditation, you resort to the power of the divine force to outflank the negative influences on your life.  If you are perturbed that you cannot achieve anything in life and you are mostly smeared with the thoughts of failures, you will be snared in the doldrum.  But if you are always fighting with your zeal to grow, achieve obstacles, overcome barriers, then you will be definitely able to transcend all your difficulties and emerge as a winner. So, never give up.  Try and try and accept your failures. Through these failures only, you will achieve success. But if you are afraid to get outflanked by the failures, then, failure will surmount you; you will not be an achiever then. Lastly, the pessimism in life will always delude you to accomplish less.
