This introverted mind of mine has been ruminating on three topics lately: competition, motivation and personal success.

Today’s post comes as combination of the three.

So let me ask you this: what motivates you? Where do you find it within yourself to keep chasing your goals?

I’m a highly ambitious person. I can stay focused for long hours and long years. I can do things out of my comfort zone. And I can learn to excel at them.

But if winning meant proving superiority to another person… oh, man.

There’s something about competition that saddens me terribly.

Especially when it feels like it’s someone’s life’s mission to defeat me. As if they would only mean something to themselves through that victory.

The paths I follow come from somewhere deep, wonderful and true.

If I were to run the race just to prove superiority, I’d rather slow down and cheer for others who see more value in a shiny trophy than I do.

Are you winning your battles for yourself?

“You will always be too much of something for someone: too big, too loud, too soft, too edgy. If you round out your edges, you lose your edge. Apologize for mistakes. Apologize for unintentionally hurting someone—profusely. But don’t apologize for being who you are.”

Of course I’ll hurt you. Of course you’ll hurt me. Of course we will hurt each other. But this is the very condition of existence. To become spring, means accepting the risk of winter. To become a presence, means accepting the risk of absence.

You can always give something, even if it is only kindness❤️

एउटि तरुनी झकिझकाउ परेर महिला सिटमा बसि रहेकी हुन्छिन तर एउटि महिला दुधे बालक च्यापेर छेउमा उभिदा नि सिट छाड्दिनन अनि पर बसेको एउटा भाइले आउनु दिदी यहाँ बस्नुस भन्छ यसबाट के प्रष्ट हुन्छ भने विभेद महिला महिला मै छ पुरुष महिला मा हैन ।।।

आफूलाई गार्हो परेपनि वृद्ध र बच्चा बोक्नुभएको महिलाहरुलाई सार्वजनिक सवारीमा सिट खाली छोडिदिऔं । 🙏🙏
