How can I motivate myself daily?
A story on how to get motivated every day to achieve success in our life👨🎤
Everyday we need motivation to start our day but one or the other day we lose motivation in those times how to motivate ourselves! What is the one motivation everyday we have to remember.
Before I answer the question how can i motivate myself daily, let me tell you a story I read few days back on internet from the Mahabharata.
¶Arjuna, the warrior prince, and his brothers and cousins are trained in archery and in the wars of Grand Master Drona.
Drona gathers the young princes, places a wooden sparrow on a branch and asks the princes to aim for the bird's eye.
He asks one of the princes approaches, draws his bow and then asks, "Tell me, what do you see?"
"The prince replies: "I see a bird, branches and a tree."
“What else do you see?" asks the venerable professor. "Tell me everything that you see."
"I see the sky, the clouds, the sun.
Oh Drona," replies the prince.
Drona then asks the next prince the same question.
"What do you see?"
"I see a bird , ok Tree , a sun and a sky... Oh, Drona.
"One by one, the princesses are asked the same question and they describe everything they see.
Then it is Arjuna's turn.
"What do you see, boy ? asks Drona.
"Darkness, my teacher.I see black.
"What else do you see?"
"Nothing but black, teacher. That's all I can see."
The drone urges Arjuna.
"What is black, Arjuna?"
"It is black in the center of the sparrow's eye, my lord. I see nothing else."
"Shoot," said Drona. "One day you will become a master archer.
"And Arjuna hit exactly the right target.
The key to motivation is to focus on one thing at a time.
If you turn around too many things, you get distracted and the mind gets confused.
When the mind gets confused you lose all motivation.
Swami Vivekananda has this wisdom in the following Words beautifully expressed.
"Take an idea. Make that idea your life; dream it; think about it; live that idea. Let your brain, your body, your muscles, your nerves, every part of your Be filled with this idea in your body and go all other ideas alone. That is the path to success, and this is how great intellectual giants are born."
Quote:
A swan can fly only with the help of two wings. One wing is karma (action) and the other wing is knowledge. If there is only one wing, then the other is useless. With the help of one, swan cannot fly. – Devarata to King Shantanu in Mahabharata
