Default The no 1 reason for failure-Wrong context

The no 1 reason nothing seems to work is wrong context.If you start something out of desperation,and you do not think that you are capable enough you will very likely be reluctant to do it at all.And this causes a rut which many of us experience.Always this mental block keeps us from really doing something.

Then what is right context.This is very very interesting.With the right context you will never feel any hesitation of fear.This i read long ago in an article somewhere

We tend to think opposite-
I am a loser
I have to work hard make sacrifices
Then i can be succesful
Then i can be happy

The right context is
I am a winner,The very fact that i am alive and life is breathing through me proves life is not hopeless yet.I have the energy,the resources.
I convert everything into gold, I was born creative and will remain so till the end of my life.I am king ,i have been endowed with all the inner treasures.

But why o why do we find it dificult to accept the right context.Why can not we believe that being a human itself with loads of physical energy inside,loads of yet to be discovered human intelligence inside,an infinite capacity to love and live.You were born a king,everybody is.See little children everybody seems like an empire in itself.Such courage,such radiance,such confidence and such energy.Stop with the self pity ,enough.This self pity which you enjoy so much
and like to discuss at length to anyone is blocking yourself.

I am a king,i have always been so.Someone ridiculing me or berating me perhaps i have thought myself to be a beggar or perhaps in the ridiculous and futile search of outer unfulfilling treasures, i have forgotten my real treasure- the capacity to enjoy,the capacity to love.And there is no single person in the
world who does not possess the inner treasures.God has given me everything i need to enjoy life.

I believe many people think in the wrong context because they are not aware of the qualities you mention. They don't seem to understand that:

* There are no real failures, only a process of growing and one should not be affraid.

* The most commmon feature of ordinary people is that they think they are ordinary. They have never tried themselves and they have never really understood what they are capable of doing.

* They have only seen the end results of success on television and in movies. Many of them seem to believe that success comes within a second and does not require any work or movement.

* They let their surroundings limit them. Why should they listen to all people who constantly complain and never realizes that there is a way forward? For people who always see hindrances there always will be insurmountable obstacles. Everyone else has a choice and a possibility to make life better.

Our worst fear is not that we are inadequate, our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God; your playing small doesn't serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God within us. It is not just in some of us, it is in everyone, and as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people premission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

the only true reason for failure is lack of learning or growth.
