Motivation is Addiction

                      Today no one reads philosophy. There is a lot of blogs which share articles like-'10 ways....' & '5 ways....', easiest way to become popular. Anyway, Today my topic is-'Motivation'. My friends always tell me, whenever you write on any topic, your words feel like wounds. You always oppose the conventional ways of doing something, I tell them- 'why you choose conventional ways?, There is always a beginner. There is always a genius... who finds a new method to do something & people follow that method- which is called 'convention'. If you don't follow conventional methods, then you have an opportunity to find your own methods to think & do something. I never want to lose that opportunity,that's why I never follow conventional methods.'
                     Coming to motivation. One of the biggest & most profitable business today is to motivate someone. I don't know why people need motivation? Motivation is mere illusion.It may make you feel confident for a fraction of time, but when you face real problems, I bet most people fail because of motivation. First of all- What is motivation?- It is an act of making someone feel very confident, hopeful,enthusiastic through some stories(Unrealistic),some quotes( some quotes are never said by the person,whose name you see below the quotes), some songs( freaking funny).
                    Motivation is addiction. Yes, I've seen many people who need motivation before they start a new task or work or assignment. They feel uncomfortable without motivation. It's reality that Bill Gates left University & became richest man on earth, but when you use this fact as an excuse to hide your failures then, my friends you are on a wrong way. Why people need drugs? Because it makes them feel really powerful & confident. The same way motivation works. Both affects your mind for a short time. Both creates illusion.Both are addictive. Both are the bases of huge profitable industries.
                  There is a well-known MOTIVATION GURU(really??) Shiv Khera. You must have heard his name. He defeated in an election, which he fought in Delhi,India. Where was his all motivation gone at that time?? Yes at the same time he was also well-known motivation guru. Most people who interestingly attend his lectures don't know about this. You will say, He is a human & that's why he have to face defeats sometimes. But dear readers, You are also humans & that's why you also have to see victories sometimes. If you fail once don't waste your money to motivate yourself.
                    Now read it carefully how you can motivate yourself without any motivation guru.
                    First of all whenever you face a failure, put your mind aside for a moment. Mind has a bad habit of taking matters more seriously than they deserve. It seems unrealistic but their is a way to do this. Close your eyes, & concentrate on the person whom you like the most. Then recall some moments you passed with that person. Then if the person exist, call him & talk to him. Tell him about your failure. There is always a person in every bodies life, who stays calm in any situation. I know this because, I am the one. Though a person doesn't know me , whenever he feels bad, just comes to me, I talk to him like nothing happened wrong with him &  after sometime he forgets his problem & gets ready for new challenges. I don't take money for that. Meditation is the best way to motivate yourself.
                  In the end, The stories which motivation gurus tell you, not a single of those stories have motivation guru in it. like, Thomas Edison fired from school & then studied under his mother, & become great scientist. where is a motivation guru in it??? Be happy , Be motivated. Thank you.
