DON'T QUIT, PERSIST AND BE PATIENT

Kucch Karo. Do Something. Suddenly one day, i thought of writing my views about the political mess preavailing in our country. Although the thought was always there at the back of my mind, but i did'nt know how to express it. Blog came to my rescue. Blogging and the power of internet is the most thought provoking and effective tool available these days to reach out to the people. I may not succeed, the chances of which are very high, but i shall pardon myself, that i atleast tried... I have not given up yet and will keep trying. Some people may laugh at me. They might be thinking that, i am wasting my time. They may be right. But you always live on HOPE. If you give up HOPE, then what is left. You have to be a dreamer to acheive your goals. People who dont dream, do not acheive anything in life. May be some day, " A FLOWER MAY BLOOM ", may be a very small one. Atleast, rethinking process " may " start in people's mind, to whom i have access to.

Anyone who undertakes a venture in any field of human excellence is bound to face not merely difficulties but often also frustration and even ridicule or lack of support, extending itself to a situation of his not even being noticed. Let alone being approved. He, who having undertaken this journey, in the chosen world would find strength from these lines of the poem " When things go wrong, as they sometimes Will / When the road you are trudging seems all up Hill / When the funds are low and the debts are High / You want to smile, but you have to Sigh / Rest if you must---- but dont quit."

Indeed tough times dont last, but tough people do. Failures and repeated failures, besides instances of discouragement and repeated discouragement, should be met with repeated attempts and renewed courage.

Not seeing any light at the end of what may appear an unending tunnel,the truly courageous would know how, as noted by the poem, often " Success is failure turned inside Out " and about those tragic cases where " Often the struggler has given Up / When he might have captured the Victor's Cup / And he learned too late, when the night slipped Down / How close he was to the golden crown "

The path to excellence is, indeed, is as difficult to pass over as a razor's edge.

The greatest failure is to never try,great people don't do different things, they do same things differently.the shortest speech in the history is given by Winston Churchill, he came on the dais and said NEVER QUIT and he left the same with the standing ovation by the audience.

Dear Brigadier Nalwa,

Thanks again for your comments. As per today's newpaper, indian armed forces in congo did a marvelous job. If your people can do a heroic act in a foreign land, why not do a CONGO in India ? I think, i should write much more on this. We are proud of our armed forces. They are one of the best in the world.

Why QUIT???????????
King Bruce never quit, he got the inspiration from a spider who made attempts and attempts and achieved its goal.Madam Curie said" Life is not easy for any of us.But what of that? We must have perseverance and, above all, confidence in ourselves. We must believe that we are gifted for something, and that this thing, at whatever cost, must be attained."
Life is a learning process thru out.We learn and continue to learn from every one-juniors, seniors children, animals, nature and last but not the least from our mistakes. Only then can we come out stronger. SO FRIENDS NEVER QUIT- What is right.

Dr Manchanda,

You have beautifully, put your words of not qutting. The spider example you gave, is now entrenched in my mind. You have given the much required strength, which i needed badly. After all, what are friends for ? You have started the engine, once again, which was slowing and could have come to a halt. Thanks again. You are one of those rare friends, who has reactivated me. I fail or get thru, is now irrelevant.

i agree with dr. manchanda...Why Quit?? life is not easy for anyone. All of us have to face our own share of problems & difficuties, but quitting is not a solution. Be strong & face life the way it treats you, have a positive approach & then i think nothing will stop you from ruling the world...
