Decades ago, I felt I was living in a limited world. I flashed back to how I learned to read and write a few languages. I earned degrees. I engaged myself in a profession and gained opportunities to be in different locations and see things in a larger context. In this journey, I acquired hard and soft skills. I continued to improve my hard skills and paid more attention to my soft skills. I realised the impact of continuous learning on self-development. On any occasion, I always forced myself to learn something while noticing better skills in others. It was my insistence to learn words, body language, silence, and anything else from people in contact every day. Going further, I gradually learned to beat problems by focusing on higher levels of facts.
Nothing is a waste of time if you use the experience wisely, says Auguste Rodin.
I was deeply interested in mingling with different places, varying cultures, and separate priorities, leading to backwardness and forwardness in totality. I feel my adulthood was full of rewards in terms of recognition, awareness, and upward learning.
I was habitual of applying good sayings to my conduct rather than simply referring to such things to impress others. It opened the door to being limitless and learning as many things as possible. In today’s world, the movement of good thoughts occupies more digital space than looking into their relevance for our own improvement.
I can say now that from limited to unlimited, the journey is, of course, challenging but pays high dividends.
I can’t know everything, but I may know something in a better way, and this has been my guiding principle since I was in college.
Reading habits have helped me a lot to know my surroundings in some detail, and I have never restricted myself to reading books of specified genres or of particular groups.
As I grew and entered hectic responsibilities, I discovered that outside events happen over which I have no control, but I can have control over my mind to largely shape things as I deem fit. This formula is not new, but its users are hardly few. I am questioning my own actions if the need arises.
Consistency is a great tool in my life, and keeping immediate gain or loss aside, I go on learning because I want to be better than others in our chosen areas every day.
I am a firm believer in the fact that we have imposed many limitations in our lives without examining the causes and consequences.
I build up real-life skills as well as functional skills to meet the demands of the time. Life teaches us every day. I am great at following this statement.
This writing skill is the latest in our chain of learning, and I find it a bridge between our experiences and sharing them with the outside world.
I believe life is not to be settled in one condition. It must be in active mode until the last point of possibility.
Let me clarify: I am not an outstanding figure in the realm of education, profession, reputation, and upgradation, but one thing is crystal clear to me: I love moving from a limited to an unlimited atmosphere, and this trait inspires me day in and day out.
I am keen to note important things in my note books, category-wise, for the last fifteen years for future reference. I recently came to know a Chinese proverb in this context, like this:
The faintest ink is more powerful than the strongest memory.
I am happy to convey that noting down important information or descriptions has been the most fruitful exercise of my life. Today, it is most convenient to refer to the matter as and when I need to.
We have the power to choose our thoughts. This narrative gave me great strength to grow in my life. I’ve never done anything just because it was socially acceptable. I inquired about relevance and significance in almost all cases. When I found people extravagant, I questioned it. I favour education for women at par with men, though a wide gap still persists in my surroundings. A lot of motivation may work to minimise the gap in the future.
These are part of my experiences while engaging myself to move beyond limited circles to see how things are limitless.
Life needs freedom, not caging. I think we all crave it.
