Be Fearless


                                                           

Be fearless in whatever you do. Be fearless about failure. Failure means you are trying. Failure is proof about your ability, about your honest intention. Be fearless about criticism. No one flogs a dead horse.

Be fearless about pursuing your dreams. Don’t listen to those who say ‘this is not possible.’ Listen to your heart. If it sings, sing along with it. Don’t compete with others. Compete with your own self.

You are in a park walking fast. Someone overtakes you. Don’t become frantic to overtake that person. That’s not the right approach. That person’s body strength, diet, mindset, age, and other factors differ from you. You have to challenge your performance. If you are walking x miles in y minutes - try improving that. Likewise, there are other examples, in other fields.

Let nothing deter you. Know what you want to do with your life. Stop playing the blame game. It won’t take you anywhere. People, time, money, circumstances, luck, they all are only excuses. If you have the passion, the determination, and the fire in you, then what or who can stop you? Consider yourself a juggernaut and ride over everything.

If you find doors of opportunities closed, open them, and if they refuse to open, build your own. Be the pathfinder, and if you can’t find the path, create new paths, newer ways. Know your worth. Know your value. Allow no one to downgrade you. And you also do not downgrade anyone. Don't think less of your self but don't think less about others too.

Let nothing and no one scare you. Let the bullies know you are fearless. Rise every time you fall. Rise again when you fall. Reach the finishing line and then make it your starting line. There’s no end to what you can achieve, if only you are fearless.

So, be fearless.

    There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure...

My Mother named me Haider

My mother named me Haider so said Ali son of Abu Talib to Marhab when he said that his mother had named him Marhab. If only Marhab had recalled, at this juncture, what his mother would tell him when he was a child. ‘My son, you’ll be a great warrior. Your fame would spread throughout the Arab world. But keep in mind one thing. If in any battle you come face to face with a man named Haider, do not fight him. Just lay down your sword.’ If Marhab had paid heed to his mother’s advice, he wouldn’t have met the fate he met with in Khaiber. But he was high on ego; drunk on his strength and fame, he thought, how anyone could fight him. He was Marhab – how anyone could challenge his might? In every battle, Ali always introduced himself as Ali son of Abu Talib. But in Khaiber, he introduced himself as Haider because he was aware of what Marhab’s mother had told Marhab. This is sufficient evidence of Ali’s knowledge of the unknown. If in Khaiber Ali had introduced himself as Ali a...

The Lady in Red

Yesterday after my morning prayer, I went for my 30- minute walk. My wife did not accompany me because she preferred the warmth of the bed to the cold outside. Usually, she does. I did not take the path that I normally take every day. The road was deserted and not a soul was in sight. I walked briskly, determined to do a certain number of steps within the time that I had. It was dark and the wintry breeze was making me shiver. I thought of the cosiness of my bed and for a moment was tempted to abandon the walk and go back home. But commitment is commitment. So, I kept walking. When I reached the end of the walking trail, I turned left instead of right. I don’t know why I did it. I should have turned right because that’s where the walker’s path continues. On the left is an alley between two high-rise buildings. Before I could turn back, I spotted a lady smoking a cigarette. She was wearing a long, red gown and her lips were painted with blood-red lipstick. Her tired eyes had da...

Zaidis and Wastis

                                                         Many people believe that Zaidis and Wastis are two separate surnames. The truth is that it isn’t. Zaidis and Wastis hail from a place in Iraq called Wasit. Wasti is actually Wasiti but over time, it became Wasti. They are descended from the fourth Imam Ali bin Hussain, also known as Zain-ul-Abedin. His eldest son’s name was Zaid. Hence the name Zaidi. These people are Sayyeds meaning they can trace their ancestry to the Holy Prophet. In the 11 th century, Sayyid Abul Farah Al Hussaini Al Wasti (son of Syed Daud al Hussaini), came to India from Iraq, with his twelve sons, and most of the Zaidis and Wastis in India and Pakistan are their descendants. Let me clarify one point here. There are Zaidis who are not Wastis. They are those who believe that Zaid and not Mohammad Baqir ...
