Push Yourselves and Be Proud...

This was something I have always heard, but almost never had the chance to experience till now.. Right now, I'm pushing myself.. Away from distraction, and onto the path that leads to glory.. A glory not in what I'll get afterwards, but in itself..

Everyone is competent enough to write one lakh words.. Everyone is competent enough to write everyday.. Everyone is competent enough to do them both.. But the fact is that you need to push yourselves to do that.. it wont come to you, you gotta go and get it..

Take today's case for example.. I'm back home after yet another overtime, and nearly 12 hours at office.. There's nothing more I would like to do right now, than to watch some TV show, or play FIFA till the cumulative hunger of the house calls.. I would then get up, go help in the kitchen, have my food, come back and continue what I was doing..

I never accepted it, but that is one sad life.. No accomplishment what so ever.. Of course, the work you do at office is an accomplishment.. But its doesnt happen daily, for you to think that you have done something with your life today, when you rewind the day..

That's the main reason I started this blog.. To make me look away from my distractions, to force me to go one level above, and to get the feeling of accomplishment..

The problem with feeling good about yourself is that you need someone to tell you that you are good.. Unless and until somebody finds it in his/her to praise you, you wont feel that you are good, no matter how great you think you are..

My egoistic self was no different.. My want of attention was always masked by shyness, and so I never felt good about myself before.. Even when somebody praised me, I would go all Doubting Thomas to try and figure out what that person wanted from me, through this diabolical plan.. Crazy, right?? :D

Anyways, I cant say I got rid of all those weird stuff inside me, but I sure can say that I have finally wrecked the thought that made me think that I needed someone to say I'm good..

With each passing day, with each successive post, I'm growing confident that I'm better than where I was yesterday.. I'm pushing myself to break the barriers I had set upon myself, and I'm coming out stronger..

Cos I dont need to any external device to measure myself against.. I know where I was yesterday at this time, I know where I'm today right now.. I know I was idiling away my time last night, and now atleast I'm writing something; I'm improving my english; I'm proving that I'm ready to take things to the next level..

And so I say to you, like many have said before me, like many will say after me..

"Push Yourself, and be Proud.."

So, adios para hoy amigo..
