Believe firmly in your target
by Amal Hewavissenti
 We
stand in open-mouthed wonderment at how the direction of our lives is
controlled and determined by destiny, the power which is thought about
with great fear. Destiny is the series of events that will face us, seen
as unable to be changed or the hidden power believed to control what
will happen in the future. You might have come in contact with people
who would say “Everything in my life turns out as my destiny would have
it.
I’m determined to accept whatever destiny has in store for me. I’m
not lucky enough. What else am I to do?” Just reflect on this (absurd)
remark that is suggestive of a person’s mental unpreparedness and lack
of energy and enthusiasm. Such detrimental thoughts will surely damage a
person’s ability to act independently and to achieve his target in life
with a fresh approach.
Inner power
Strict belief in destiny or the power of luck will make you blind to
your inner power and will emotionally blackmail you into accepting or
allowing what happens without any resistance. More often than not, we
tend to think of destiny or power of luck as a preternatural force that
can do marvels in our life or a lifeline that is thrown to rescue us in
difficulties in water.
Luck and destiny may exist! It is probably best to say that luck and
destiny can do miracles for us if only we identify and skilfully test
the natural brain power to its limits.
 On
the other hand, we may nurture all hopes of success and be confused the
moment we think of the palmistry predictions that might say the
contrary. We should not insult the exceptional mental ability hidden in
us by letting ourselves strongly controlled by such sluggish attitudes.
If you honestly check the palms of top class millionaires, you are sure
to see that those palms are a combination of those with so called
‘wealth line’ and those without it. Their ‘wealth line’ is not on their
palms but on how they manipulate their brain power to get at the set
target. This again is not to suggest a disbelief in palmistry but to say
that those beliefs must not be a decisive factor to wreck your
determination.
Influence of planets
 A
zodiac expert may openly declare that some disaster would befall people
born under a particular star sign. A zodiac forecast may assertively
express that people born under Leo, for example, will have to be
unrelievedly careful because the influence of a planet may bode ill for
his life during a particular period. Beliefs such as these, may be
ensconced in our minds and may totally dispel success because, whatever
we do, we believe in an auspicious start.
If you are obsessed with pessimistic thoughts, everything you do will
surely go amiss because you lack the vital belief that you have the
power to do everything right. The mere sense of ‘possible influence’ of
planets over your life will enfeeble your self-confidence and power of
thought. The more you bother about dark and even sinister possibilities
on your path, lesser the chance of success in what you do.
If you firmly select your target, the subconscious may push you
towards achieving it. Therefore, believe that what you are aiming to
achieve is finally yours. For instance, if you believe strongly in being
financially stable, the belief itself is enough to make you a successful
man conditional to commitment. So we see that the invisible power that
can realise our dreams is the belief in ourselves.
There may be some others who grumble that they have believed in
themselves and have achieved nothing yet. They are definitely those who
are unnecessarily moved by challenges and become nonplussed by minor
setbacks in life. A man who firmly believes in his target treats the
minor setbacks as trivial things and keeps his eye on the success that
lies beyond. Remember we are light years ahead of planets’ influence! |
