Believe it - the best lies within you

I think of the time where I have ruthlessly felt depressed, lost or even dead at times.

Hard times, as we like to call them.

Hard because our mind is incapable to think or act. It’s hard because we lose the capability of exercising our thoughts. Hard because we feel that we are stuck somewhere and become claustrophobic. We think that getting out of the situation is impossible. We presume that it’s the limit and a dead end to the road. We are agitated, distraught, off balance and we completely lose track of what we are doing or what we want to do. We do things that we haven't done before just in order to feel some change, on the good side.

In such times, we forget what we are capable of. We have lost our confidence and are shattered. They say desperate time calls for desperate measures. They say it right but they also forget that the desperate time is actually the time where one can leverage the learning opportunity. It is the time to expand one's horizon and go for the kill.

The best in you lies within. You are the best and no one can beat you except for yourself. It doesn't matter if you are cheated or betrayed in any phase of life. Faith keeps the hope alive; hope ignites the fuel and rekindles the energy within you. Liberate the fear and fulfill your desires for you are the one for yourself, you are the driving force and none but you can make yourself win this situation.

In life, people will always tell you that you have made a mistake. They’ll tell you that you’re mistaken at this point but they’ll never acknowledge your efforts and the goods that you do. You just can’t afford to take it. However, it is only you who can convince you that you are the reason behind everything, be it good or bad and only you can make a change happen. Change is good and is inevitable. One cannot defy the nature’s law for it will complete its circle. It is difficult to accept the truth but one who accepts it comes out as a winner. Not many people will tell you the good things about you but you must respect those who do. Human tendency as they call it – not to be able to praise someone’s efforts. Yes, people will try to bring you down, somewhere near their position. Is that fair? Life is a strategic imbalance. The more you try to understand it, the complex it gets. The more you try to solve it, the more intangible it gets. It’s like a web that seems comprehendible but only the spider, God – the one who has built it, knows it intricacies. However, with concentration and meditation one can easily unravel the mystery. You just have to believe that the best lies within you, rest will follow.
