Instant blog?? naaah.. ;)

I've always maintained that every person on planet earth is blessed. Everyone can do some unique thing that no one can do. But the only thing is, how soon in life can a person get to know with what he's blessed???!!

There are inborn talents, there are hard workers, both, a rarity. I take the privilege of calling it a rarity, coz, one needs to be really blessed for having been bestowed upon with immense amount of talent. A person may intently feel to learn dance, and that, would definitely prompt him to do so. After having learnt and successfully having practised, if he doesn't apply his mind in what new he can do, then, its neither talent or hard work. Its just waste. TOTAL WASTE.

The world moves fast. These days I wonder if it has surpassed the speed of the rotation of the earth. Everything is instant. Instant coffee, instant water heaters, instant mix, instant, INSTANT!!! Things have to be fast, shouldn't they? Of course yes, there's no time for anything. Time is so precious!!

Getting a little research done on superior "instant" technology wouldn't do much harm. The main problem lies when the "instant" travels a little deeper into our lives. Over a period of time, the entire temperament of the population has taken a toss. We need instant fame, instant money, instant mass recognition and what is being done for that? Sitting on a couch, watching the TV, with a bottle of beer for company, and maybe a little of this and that to go along. What did you say? Instant fame? Now those are some cool steps you are following. KUDOS!

Cricket fans, soccer fans get terribly worked up when something that their HERO does, upsets them. "Oh shit, he should've done it that way. He should've passed the ball to this guy, and the stupid ass did the other!" SHOULD. Hmm.. "Holy cow! They couldn't chase a target of 235? On that pitch? We've a horrendous team!" Dude, they did atleast that. What did you do? Sit here and comment, from a place that is 1000 miles away from him? Come on, if you know you have it in you, go ahead and become his coach!

Reality shows have witnessed a boom that probably software also didn't see a couple of years back. No doubt that it has produced one hundred singers, or dancers and allowed them to be exposed into the ugly world of spotlight. What I wanna know is, even the winners' names aren't remembered, what good will the runners be remembered for? Numerous judges, waiting to whip each others' asses on TV, get so damned impressed with quite a few that even the ones not having any opportunities themselves, promise the 'star of tomorrow' with a tonne of promises. What happens? Media hypes it up, the participant gets overly confident, ten days down the lane, he's gone.

My whole point is, if you have it in you, and you really think you can do something, do it! No cone else can! You don't need publicity to do what you do. How many of us require people to know that we brush our teeth? It just takes a little time for each one of us to connect with what we really want in life, and what we can do. And trust me, nothing in the world comes to anyone with a price. You need it, and you think you can do it, only doing it would help atleast a little. The price you pay? Patience, time, hard work, sweating, practising, anything! If that something is what one wants to achieve, that someone wouldn't want to take it the easy way. If anything you got is instant, the time for which it'll stay with you will also be for an instant. Someone rightly penned, "Hard work is the only key to success".
