The Other philosophy is "be
happy with what you have." If I'm happy with what I have, why
should I work hard? Rather I should stay in peace!!
Of course, both cannot be followed simultaneously. To derive the
right path, you need to define life first.
What is life?
It is definitely not breathing,
eating, sleeping and dying one day. It has more meaning to it. If you follow
the latter (being content with what you have), your life turns idle. A
standstill. There is no growth. No moving forward. No change in routine.
Nothing to look forward.
The only change you encounter would
be the physical changes due to aging.
Will you call it life? Definitely,
not.
Let us consider the former part.
We must move forward in life. It is
not about competing with one another and winning. It's about broadening our
perspectives, seeing the world around, trying to instill the soul of the
universe.
It's not about earning more money,
but achieving a wealthy soul. The soul that understands the rhythm of the
universe.
We may not understand, but the
society, the world around, has performed their part in developing us into what
we are today.
Would you like to leave the world with that debt in pocket?
You should not.
When the society has played their
part in constructing us, we must also do something for them. Something that
they would ever remember. Something that can have a positive effect. Something
that would etch our name in the hearts of people.
Therefore, you should never be
content with what you have, but strive for excellence in whatever field you
are. You should never compete with anyone. Competing with others is WRONG.
You
compete with your inner-self. And you would turn into a great achiever
eventually.
It is not about defeating others,
but winning our soul.
It is not about earning more wealth,
but putting that wealth for the right cause.
It’s about living your LIFE.
