It's all about working with what you got!


There are things you learn from everyday life. Sometimes you tend to question these things and out of these questions is born confidence, either the destruction or the construction of it.

So where am I going with this?

Circumstances have led me to see the life that I lead as being very close to optimum. Yes, there are flaws here and there. I see these flaws as those born out of very basic mistakes.

So where am I going with this?

There are times when I underestimate myself. There are times when I sense the inferiority complex inside me. It is not a very pleasant feeling when you write stuff like this about yourself. I don’t immediately realize that I am being a victim of inferiority complex when I am going through it. You perform the exact same task under two different or maybe the same environments. The results vary.

So where am I going with this?

When you get the results, you realize whether you have been a victim of inferiority complex or not. You then realize that you are potentially a far more efficient person than what you thought you were. Such are the circumstances when life seems very close to optimum. After feeling this, you start analyzing your mistakes. And as I have said above, mistakes always seem very basic.

So where am I going with this?

Lack of self control. Controlling myself is controlling my mind. There are times when I am calm and I am not thinking about anything but what is exactly in front of my eyes. This is a very relaxing feeling. There is a satisfaction that you are not worrying about anything that is not present. This is because everything else is accounted for. You feel so organized and controlled that nothing else can disturb your composure. At times like this, I have never been a victim of inferiority complex.

Finally, under these circumstances there is an unexplainable aggression inside you which gives you a tremendous ability to focus on your current task and like a beautifully planned out domino circuit, it falls out in perfect harmony.

हैं आंखों में जूनून
है ख्वाबों में जूनून
सपनो को फिर सजाये
उम्मीदों को जगाये ये जूनून


P.S. I think every cricket team should have a mascot. Mascots are cool. The mascot of the Indian team should be a heart. The Pakistanis can also have it if they want. Australians should be foxes. Sri Lankans should be pandas. South Africans should be tigers. The British should be half brains. Lol no offense. West Indians should be monkeys.
So where am I going with this?
Indians and Pakistanis should have ONE cricket team. That would put an end to that one drama that happens every three years…..umm what’s it called? ….o yeah….the World Cup.
