Life has its own formula

Everyday is a new beginning; every moment is a new challenge.

My life prediction

My life prediction from a renowned portal says the following:

○ I will enjoy prosperous financial status from 30th year onwards.
○ I will settle in life by 33 years of age.
○ There are prominent chances that I will earn much from overseas.
○ There are prominent chances that I will receive much in inheritance.
○ I will have a spacious modern home. There are fair indications that I will settle abroad.

As a matter of fact, astrology is not science. But still I do have some interest in it as it deals with the future. There is no other way but to match the prediction with the actual happenings of my life to check whether it is correct.

Nothing can happen just because it has to without any logic. So if the above prediction is correct, then it should have some logical foundation. The astrologer thus rightly said, “There were no sheer lucks for you. Your career might have started from grass root level and you will gradually achieve success in your life.”

Honesty is the best policy

The above statement is true for people who are practical as well as intelligent enough to fight for the positives of life. My grandfather was a very honest person. My father too is honest and intelligent (retired Executive Engineer, Government of Tripura). But both of them were not practical enough. This is the reason behind a property related family dispute and other misfortunes.

When we are practical, intelligent, positive and honest to ourselves and others – we can be very sure of one thing that we are in the right track of life which leads us towards progress. If we make any mistake in calculating our position of where we stand and misinterpret the corresponding ground realities, our projections also becomes baseless. It is sometimes ours as well as others ego factor that becomes an obstacle in accepting all the facts of life. But ultimately what stands the test of time is simply the truth.

It is difficult to quit smoking

10 years ago, I casually started smoking to shrug off my good-boy image and gradually it became a regular habit as well as addiction. Cigarettes worth more than Rs. 60,000 had gone up in smoke and it was then that I decided to stop smoking. I tried several times but it was all in vain. Thomas Edison once said, “Many of life’s failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up”. Sometimes it is our lack of willpower which makes us vulnerable to any kind of addiction. It is a very strange psychology that compels us to simply ignore any kind of statutory warning at the cost of our life. Perhaps we try to tame and dominate anything that is harmful to us but it is always better to overcome such tendency especially when we are not sure of victory.
