Frustration - The Flip Side of Hope

Expert Author Auklesh Roy

If the numbness of frustration is inevitable, so is the shining light of new hope. Your frustration signals optimism within. A winner is nothing but a strong-willed person who was resolute and eventually ended up winning. However, a loser evidently runs just few inches behind that conqueror but with an absolutely opposite mindset.

So, what makes a winner different? The attitude should always be considered to be the foremost. I always feel somebody inside me who can never smile back in any losing situation. Yes, I cannot accept myself to be a loser. Do not misinterpret my opinion as I am never in favor of losing any battle. It is not about a sportsman's spirit to accept whatever comes towards you. It is about expecting only the things you are confident to achieve. It is also about things you actually believe you should achieve.

Being choosy even when we dream is the actual point. We are often whimsical, no matter how old and mature we are, when we run after any new venture. That is the way we sow the deadly seeds of misery. A wrong path will surely lead you to a place you always hate to be in. There is a chance that you might end up in a place that is not even your comfort zone. Know your comfort zone and fix your goal accordingly. Making and following towards achieving your goal is somewhat painstaking. You need to proceed by calculating the lucrative opportunities you have to sacrifice. Sometimes you even have to sacrifice your pleasure of endless day dreams. Finally, as your goal is set, you need to enjoy the journey on a bumpy road with a dream of your destination rooted deep into your heart.

Be yourself is the mantra. You have to identify your strength. You should never try to be unnecessarily careful about any of your weakness. That might sound crazy but that is the truth my friend. Fear always accompanies every single thought of your own failure. Why are we afraid to fall when it opens a new path towards the unknown bliss? I know the fall is inevitable, but I believe in my strength that I can rise up and run again.
