Failure

The fear of failing… why do we fail? Whom do we fail? ourselves, parents, teachers, family or society? what do we fail in..? Expectations?? Who made them in the first place??

If we sit tight & do nothing what will happen?? There will be no failure. Because we may fail or because we may never rise up to someone’s expectations, do nothing? If the first place is never yours then what??

Fail.. u… are… just because someone told me … do I truly believe that I have failed?? I tried my best & this is what I have achieved. I could have done better ? Yes. Let me give myself another chance! Let me try again!!

Have we made the children today fearful of stepping ahead?? Haven’t we instilled confidence & fearlessness in them? Are they weaker than us?? Have they forgotten to slog to reach their goals??

If we can’t reach in one go, still there are so many chances remaining…. The Olympic medal winners did not get it right at the first attempt. They practiced & perfected their art. ART… it is learning to be different. Have we forgotten to be unique?

So many thoughts buzzed around & I found so many of my students doing so well in spite of their teachers!! But they were so thankful… AM I getting used to all the attention by them!! Because I can’t see them getting desperate?? I don’t think so. So many around make us believe in them. To lookup to them & wish to be with them… What is it???

Is it only an illusion!!! They say, Failure is the pillar of success… Are we making a mountain of a molehill?? Aren’t we advanced than our predecessors ??? Shouldn’t our work, thoughts & will to work reflect it ???

I seriously wonder…
