“What is it that matters to a person?”
The answer to it does not have a generic
answer to it. The question by itself is in existence because what matters to me
is not the same as what matters to my mother.
The answer to this is different from every
others species, what makes the difference?
“Thinking/Perspective”
Every individual’s perspective differs and
eventually their priorities differ.
If
it had not differed, then there wouldn’t be a Bill Gates and a Steve jobs in
the same field.
If it had not differed, then there wouldn’t
be a Jeffrey Archer and a Sidney Sheldon in the same field.
If it had not differed, then there wouldn’t
be a Steven Spielberg and a Mani Ratnam in the same field.
All these people and all my fellow bloggers
would not have made it big if not for the unique ability in them to think
different. Thinking is all that matters.
Now, taking you into the chronicles of my
life. Before I take you, a friendly warning : DO NOT SNORT.
I am sure every one of you would have
studied in a school where they appointed school leaders to represent the
students, so what was the ideal quality that was expected in order to acquire
that post? Academic excellence, Social behaviour, and an impeccable fluency in
English (Given the fact it is a convent school). Not that I aspired to become a
school leader, but there was this flaring rage in me to talk fluently atleast.
So back then, “All That Mattered” to me was to build my communication I might
have very well been negligent about it and strutted around with just “The
Convent School Girl” tag.
Now in my college phase. I am slightly
overwhelmed to ask myself “Where has the Self-Learning of the English language
not helped you?” No disappointments. The next thing I wanted to do was to
express my thoughts, letting my family and my friends know through mail, texts
and whatsapp wasn’t enough for me. I wanted to let many others know about it
and get their views, and here I am, Blogging. If I had thought any differently,
I would have settled with just letting people know in a subtle way.
It sure was satisfying to pen down what
mattered and still matters the most to me. It is just a matter of time that
changes the life of a person, once our heart is set on things that matters the
most to us, the right Perspective
and the well set Determination gets
us the Zeal and washes away the Fear.
