1. Dare to be inspired
-Allvin Tamij
Once a manwas asked, ``whatwill youdoif one dayyou become a billionaire?’’.The manreplied
“I will stopworryingaboutthe future.”
In the rush of today’s world,followingyourpassionand truly gettinginspiredisaluxury.Once you
are a grownup, you are cordiallyexpected tofollowthe flock of sheep reachingtowardsthe age old
conceptof – securedlivelihood.
But, whatwouldyoupursue if there isno baggage on yourshoulder,nopre-requisite ideaof asafe
careeraheadand no external orinternal pressurepokingyoueveryminute togothroughthe path
that everyone hastriedbeforebecause itis –SAFE.
What isinspiration? –It issomethingthatcomesfromwithinand propelsapersonfromapathyto
possibility,andtransformsthe waywe perceive ourowncapabilities.
Inspirationmaysometimesbe overlookedbecauseof itselusive nature.It ishistoryof beingtreated
as supernatural ordivine hasn’thelpedthe situation. Inspirationawakensustonew possibilitiesby
allowingustotranscendour ordinaryexperiencesandlimitations.
So, Is there any cottage or factory where youcangather yourpartial amountof inspiration?NO,
althoughitwouldbe mucheasyif thatwouldbe the scenario.
Ratherit iseverywhere ,whatit truly needforthe nakedeyestolocate the inspirationtheyare
longingis – a purposeful vision.Butthatisnot enough ,people shouldhave the courage toownit
and make it.
There are many inthe worldthathas a vision,lackingthe motivationandgoingthe opposite
directionof the flock.
Thisis nota howto become successful guidelines butfindingyourinnerself thatadmitswhattruly
compelsyoutodo everythinginordertoattainthat visionyouhave buildin yourmind. CHOOSE,
BELIEVE and PROCESS.

1. Let’s get started
2. Own yourself
Might soundimpulsive butinspirationwon’t
come and knockat yourdoor while youare
bingingonyourfavorite show.So,justgather
up yourself andstartdoingyourthingthat
makesyoufeel contentanddoesnothave to be
somethingdifferentall of asudden,youare just
inthe beginningof a longmarathonso don’t
operate as if itis a sprint. Because itain’tno
sprintbut a marathonand how you retrieve
your energythroughoutisyourpassion.
Askyourself,whatisthatone thing
that youdare notmake your life
goal?Because youinspire from
within,no-one canforce youuntil
youdon’tfeel like it. Youare in
control of youand yourlife.Iknow
this, sometimescangetlostinthe
midstof work andcommitmentsbut
youhave a dutyto control what
happensinyourlife.
Live a fulfilledlifeof purpose and
continuallyreinventyourself as
circumstancesinyourlife change.
Reflectyourgrowthby
understandingthatnobodystays
the same personforeverandthere
isno reasonyou shouldeither.
Consideryourlife asa book.
Whateverthe nextchapterhasin
store is completelyuptoyou
because the authoris YOU.
3. 3. Be assertive
It doesnotalwaysstart ina waythat one day yougot inspired
fromsomethingandyoubecome the master of your skills. You
have to be assertive aboutwhatyouare pursuing.
Also,be ok withthe word‘NO’,there isnothingbadinthat
rather take itas ‘NOT NOW’.
Chase rejectionanduse itas a catalystto strive andachieve
success.Make yourmindunderstandthat“no” isnot a
permanentansweranditdoesn’tmeannever. Knockatevery
door until one opensandacceptsyoufor growthas well as
admiration.
4. Write it down
Write downall of yourgoals.Whethertheyare giganticand extremelydifficultto achieve orthey
are tinyandeasilyachievablewiththe slightestof effort,justwrite themdown.
Huge goalscan be brokendownintosmallergoals.Andasyoubreak themdown,youcan create a
time frame andan action planon howyoucan achieve them.Write yourvision(biggoal) onpaper
everydayand make a checklistof smallertasks,whichyoucantickoff as youfocuson yourvision.
Thiswill alignyourmindsetandmake youhungrytokeeppushing.
A plansupplementedwithpassionwill keepyourvisionclear.
Just drinkthe sourdrinkof passionandride alongyourjourneyto fulfillment.
4. 5. Be daring

of the sheep.
