Today, I will share a story that I read from a moral storybook.

Everyone must have faith in himself

There is no one who does not love himself, has no belief in himself, and has no ambition to rise higher and higher. Even a man who does not have faith in God has faith in himself and desires to have strength by which to cultivate faith in himself. There was once a guru communicating wisdom to people who came for his darshan with flowers and fruits. One day, as the offerings were plenty, he called a disciple and asked him to cut the fruits and arrange for its distribution as prasâda(m). The disciple reported to the guru that all was ready for distribution and asked him who would be given first. The guru asked him to start with the person in whom he has the greatest faith and the highest confidence. All the people assembled there thought that the disciple would first give the fruit to the teacher and then distribute it to the others. But the disciple did not do so. He took the first fruit himself. When the surprised onlookers asked for an explanation he said that since he had had the greatest confidence and affection for himself, he took the first fruit.

The lesson

Many often we come across people who are not very confident in themselves and such people always stay behind because they have so many doubts.
I am not saying that I am perfect but hey one should have at least some amount of courage to face the unknown otherwise life will just be a record of failures.
Look around and see the people. Each and everyone will have some problem or another but many ignore their pains and trials and get and up and try. This 'try' phase may deter some and they will give up in the middle but for some, it is an encouragement to keep on trying and not give up.
The successful people are those who have spent years trying and not listening to discouraging words or lectures by their near and dear for it is the 'close people' who discourage the most.

Try to build your confidence. If you do not know a language, learn it. Practice can make you perfect. If you want to excel, keep doing whatever you want to excel in and not just expect results on a silver plate.

Be brave and try to make every day a special one. If you change your attitude, you can change your life for the better.
