My life took a turn during last November and it changed completely when my little boy made his debut on December 2nd, 2018 at wee hours of the night. That was the time I started understanding what actually success means.

In last many years, I've been juggling with the thoughts to make it BIG in life and the feeling of inadequacy, that used to hit me, whenever I thought of coming out of my shell. At times, I felt like I may not be able to make it, and I never took a step forward.

It was my son who taught me to never give up - an electric feeling that I've forgotten over the years of working in a corporate slavery. Something that I've forgotten how it felt like. It was his undivided attention that showed me how I'm supposed to look at the challenges in my life. It was his cries that made me understand that once you have a desire, you must put your ABSOLUTE everything, and try to reach for it. If you still fail to reach her... Don't worry! Your world will come closer to you.

As we all grow... we tend to learn a lot of unncessary and unproductive skills that actually hurts our own personal growth. REMEMBER, a person ALWAYS have to GROW himself FIRST followed by his CONTRIBUTION to the world. And if you really want to grow, you must unlearn what you've learned and that which is not helping you in your venture. When you have a child, it's like getting a bonus life. You get a completely different perspective to the same situation. One that would shake you and put you under tremendous stress - it would have NO impact on that young mind.

WHAT IF, we get to keep our same consciousness but are also awarded a mindset of that child? What do you think that fearless mind would do to you..? As I am exploring myself again with the mindset of my little one, I now understand what success is...

IT's A JOURNEY... A Venture, A Story that ONLY YOU can tell. You get to DEFINE your own story, your own experience and journey.. and that's WHY it's DIFFERENT for each one of us. If you ever feel like life is too difficult for you and you may not be able to achieve something, try to find that child in you. You'll get a different perspective. And NOW... TRY AGAIN!

To Your Success!
