CONSISTENCY IS THE KEY TO SUCCESS.

 

To all you beautiful people from across the globe, warm greetings and love,

Snippets of Inspiration and Thoughts to ponder over;  the topic being…

Be The Owner Of A Cool Head And a Warm Heart.

You will agree with me when I say that, to excel in Life, we must get out of our comfort zones. If we sit pretty tight and comfortable we will only be able to exist and not live fully. Expectations can be met only if we are willing to take risks in our lives. Some of the issues we face may be beyond our ability to tackle and we may fail in our attempts, however sincere we are. But stepping back in defeat will only demotivate us further.

Do not look at failed attempts as ‘defeat’. Every attempt will only take you nearer to success. Can you not recall the story of Robert the Bruce and the spider? I do not think that there is anyone who does not know the oft-repeated story. Well, in case you have not heard the story, here it is;

King Robert the Bruce I

was born at Lochmaben Castle in 1274. He was Knight and Overlord of Annandale. In 1306 he was crowned King of Scotland and henceforth tried to free Scotland from the English enemy.

After being defeated at a battle, Bruce escaped and found a hideout in a cave. Hiding in a cave for three months, Bruce was at the lowest point of his life. He thought about leaving the country and never coming back.

While waiting, he watched a spider building a web in the cave’s entrance. The spider fell down time after time, but finally he succeeded with his web. So Bruce decided also to retry his fight and told his men: “If at first you don’t succeed, try try and try again”.

At the end, the story is partly historic reality, partly legend,  and much of the facts remain unclear. In general, it is interpreted as a story of keeping faith confronted with overwhelming odds and thus finally being rewarded by success.

Be Consistent in your Efforts.

Just as the king gathered hope and courage from a mere spider, so also shall we look at Life with a new perspective. There Are No Failures, Only Experiences. Be Consistent in your Efforts. Consistency is the key to success. Constant efforts taken lead to habits. Habits form the actions we take every day. And action ultimately leads to Success. Learn new lessons from life with a ‘cool head and a warm heart’.

My wish for you is that you acquire new composure, hope and courage to try out various options and alternatives before you, till you succeed in your mission.

Good Luck and A Big God Bless To You All.
