SELF-HELP DELUSION
‘IF YOU CAN BOUNCE BACK YOU CAN GET BACK FROM ANY SET BACK’
This quote coined by me may sound rhyming; may seem to have some sense.
It is like one of those motivational messages sneaking, creeeping teasing, tossing & flooding everywhere;
There are more of what to dos; what not to dos.
Like this general self-help books churn out pages & pages of advice, telling you, commanding you, dictating you, even ridiculing you with ridiculous statements like what I have coined and shared above.
These statements like mosquitoes tease you wherever you go, whichever side you turn these days. Mobile is infested with hundreds of motivational sms of the same drab stuff circulating hundreth time; open your mailbox there they hit you with pictures & videos…
Self styled evangelists of MOTIVATION & INSPIRATION and also a few claim to be inspired by GOD advice people from roof top as if people dont know anything.
Even the generic books preach as if people dont know what to do to tide over difficulties.
People most often know what to do; people get themselves the know-how of changing behaviour/habit.
The issue is not ‘know-how’ but ‘do-how’
Yes doing what they know is the issue..
People are helpless prisoners of behavioral pattern. In spite of their desire or frustration to change, people continue to be where they are.
Books or advice do not address this issue; only deal with it superficially which does not sufficiently help the person to bring in desired change.
Now the conflict starts within the person, guilt mounts up; frustration hightens..
The person sits with bitterness that the book has not hooked him; the book has not pushed him to take action to bring the desired change. After sometime the book becomes a burden.
My request to self development aspirants is that live life the way you want to live and go by your experience;
If you are angry, express anger
If you are frustrated, let out frustration
If you are upset about your failure, be upset.
You have every right to be as you are;
My request is ‘Kindly do not be overtly deluded by ‘POSITIVEs’ or ‘NEGATIVEs’
Your experience & your understanding is your true guide whether postive or negative.
YOU ARE YOUR MIRACLE !!!
