I Learn To Give

*I Learn To Give*

I learn to give not because I have plenty but because I understand how it feels like to have nothing.

I learn to give not because I'm dumb and stupid for giving wholeheartedly but because I understand this principle that no one has ever become poor from giving joyfully.

I learn to give because I understand that giving is not just making donations or doing charity works but it is about making a difference in somebody's life no matter how small it is.

I learn to give because I understand that we rise by lifting others up with us. Because we were once down there and unrecognised until someone had empathy and compassion on us to lift us to the higher place we are today. So I learn to give also by returning a favour

I learn to give because I am a benefactor of mercy and grace and the devine providence of God. My blessings are multiplied as I learn to give freely to others from my heart. Because I recognise that all that I have is given unto me by the grace and mercies of God.

I learn to give to give through teaching and sharing my knowledge and inspiring people because I understand that educating people has not only the power to change a person but it also has the power to change society and a nation. Education is the greatest weapon to change a country and its people faster.

I learn to give because I understand this that give people your best that is within you at all times, and although sometimes painful, there is a joyful feeling of truth that the people you help also in turn spread the spirit of giving they have learnt to give unto others too.

Finally, I learn to give because giving is all I know and who I am.

What is your reason for giving?

How Failure Breeds Great Achievers

I get asked by many people a lot of times... Why do you always like writing motivational stories and messages to inspire others. What inspires you, and what do you get from doing that  every morning anyway? My answer has always been simple. To prevent people  especially you from giving up in life when you face the least form of failure. My greatest wish is to provide hope, faith and reason for you not to give up in life. I would like you to think of me   as your symbol of Inspiration for each day. Most people, ironically, think  that people who always inspire, motivate and encourage other people don't have problems,  they think they have a cozy and smooth life, that's why they are able to encourage people. But believe me, that's not true. On the contrary, those kind of people like me, are the kinds of people facing all sorts of problems, challenges and difficulties in life. The trick here, however is, I have chosen to look at  my failures, challe...

Everything Is Temporary

Corona Virus has proved that everything around us is so temporary. Things that our lives revolved around...work, gym, malls, movies and other social activities have all gone for a toss. These were things which used to occupy our time and attention virtually everyday, so much that we neglected what was most important to us in the first place. We are learning to live without them now, as our only option these days, is to stay indoors to keep ourselves safe. It is teaching us all  one thing,  that in the end, our home and families really matter. They are our point of safety in difficult times like these. So should this crisis come to an end, which will be very soon,   do know where your priorities lie henceforth. It is not in your work, or your insatiable ambitions. It is with your family.

An Attitude Of Gratitude

To have an attitude of gratitude is the greatest virtue anyone  can have. Because it shows that you are content with the little you have and a happy expectation of all you are yet to have and enjoy in life. If you really want your life to change, then you need to add the habit of  gratitude. I realised that our generation of today take the power of being grateful for granted. Because we are a generation that is burnt on having more and more everyday, we quickly lose sight of the important things we already have that is keeping our life afloat at this moment. It's almost as if each one of us is in competition with one another when it's not supposed to be so. I was born with a disability from birth, an advanced form of poliomyelitis. I had twisted hands and legs as a child so I was only able to crawl on the floor. That was my only way to move. I hated that and myself so much because I wanted to walk just like everybody else. I was consumed so much by hate and ingratitude ...
