Shrimad Bhagavad Gita isn't a religious textbook as numerous beliefs In fact, it's the book of answers Let us snare some pearls out of this masterpiece and begin with point no. 3
1. How Frequently Do We Start A Thing But Leave It Untreated?
A student decides to read the whole book but loses interest in between A person starts his weight loss trip but loses provocation in no time.
Bhagavad Gita says that whenever this happens, it's because the reason, why we want to do a certain thing isn't crystal clear. Arjuna had come well prepared on the battleground but lost interest in fighting. It was at that moment Lord Krishna addressed his why.
Let's understand this with an illustration of a boy who understands the benefits of waking up beforehand in the morning but still when the alarm buzzes in the morning, he turns it off and sleeps. Why?
Because his why he should wake up isn't strong enough Although if he has to catch a train beforehand in the morning, he'll wake up fluently. Why? Because this time his why is veritably strong. So, to achieve a thing, the foremost step is to ask yourself, why do you want to achieve that thing? What is the big deal in not doing it?
Know that the clearer your why is, the stronger your determination will be. Think of any successful person whose trip was no walk in the demesne. rather, it was there, why that made them persist.
2. Don’t Stay For The Last Moment
At times, we understand how important it's for us to do a task but still, we tend to procrastinate or feel lazy. How frequently do we tend to delay making that report until the last nanosecond or delaying that internet till the last day? Why does this be?
Shrimad Bhagavad Gita in chapter 18, verse 28 confirms that whenever we tend to procrastinate, know that our mind is in the mode of ignorance. In such a mode, the mind is governed by its introductory instincts which makes us unhappy and regretful latterly in life. principally, to feel lazy is a weakness of the mind.
But how do we overcome it?
The mind can be controlled by practice and detachment. Detachment from what? sensitive pleasures. suppose a cricketer who's training 18 hours a day, 7 days a week just to make his country proud. Do they not feel like going out to film or having their favourite foods? Of course, they do.
But it's their control over the mind and senses that have made them what they're moment. The first step to controlling the mind and sensitive pleasures is to set the right terrain. So, if you truly want to negotiate a commodity in life, you have to produce the right terrain for it.
3. How To Clear Self- Doubts?
There will be times when you'll be constantly working towards your end but still not suitable to find success. frequently uncertainty arises. Am I good enough? Have I chosen the right path? Indeed the people around you might say, this isn't for you. You should do things differently. These are the toughest times but Lord Krishna in chapter 4 warns that one who has a distrusting mind is bound to be destroyed.
Farther in chapter 2 Lord Krishna advises that one shouldn't consider too important the thing but should remain focused on the conduct alone. Now you may wonder how to work without keeping an eye on things. To add up, contemplate why you want to achieve a particular thing.
What is the big deal in not doing it? Once your reason is crystal clear, you'll come to your momentum. In those times when we procrastinate or delay a task that's important to us, we know that our mind is in a state of ignorance. To overcome the mind's this weakness, get detached from the sensory pleasures. Produce the right terrain to make effects easier.
At times when you're constantly working towards your thing and still not chancing success, do not misdoubt yourself. rather, believe in your dreams and work continuously without pondering or attaching yourself to the results. The enormity of the Bhagavad Gita is similar and once you begin reading it, it'll serve as your most precious schoolteacher on this road to success.
