The world is becoming more competitive (IM 576)

Without a doubt, today the world is becoming more competitive each day. There is 99% chance that the idea you have in your mind already exits in somebody else's mind. The name you have for your dream business or a startup is already in someone else's head.

It's the execution that makes the difference...

The more you conceal your idea in your brain, the more difficult it becomes to transform it into reality as you are going against the time. And history shows that those who go against the time will never win.

Well, the purpose might be different, but nobody cares about the purpose in the beginning. Everyone cares about what they get in return or what advantage you give to them. You might have a huge purpose, but it becomes more challenging when the platform you want to create has been executed by others.

But don't get me wrong, it doesn't mean that you lost your opportunity. Opportunity comes and goes. It's like a bus. The only thing that matter is to take the right step at a right time on the right bus. And there is always an alternative. But everyone should understand that the world has become more competitive every single day.

Rewards and journey (IM 575)

We all work to achieve success and we struggle for it. We always care about the end not realizing that our journey is the reward.

No matter how it ends, we must enjoy the journey towards it, but the hard reality is that our adventure is not going to be effortless. Its the full of blood and sweat.

So accepting our present situation and acting according to it will be the best option can probably choose.

Excuse to..(IM 574)

make excuses

settle for short-term happiness

think small

surround with negative people

other people negative complement

sacrifice principles and values

Trendline (IM 573)

There is this saying that goes :- "If today is a sunny day then there is a 80 % chance that tomorrow will be a sunny day as well." There will of course be a certain trendline then can in some way predict tomorrow.

And it might have 80% chance of being true depending on how precise and certainty the prediction is.

We can see this in stock market, where various trendline and moving averages are used to predict upcoming market movements.

The flow (IM 572)

The flow begins with the execution. Without execution, there is no failure. Without failure, learning never happens. Without learning, there is no progress and improvement. Without progress and improvement, life has no meaning and purpose.

Life without meaning and purpose is not worth living, it's just surviving.

The universal law (IM 571)

Ralph W. Emerson once said, ” For everything you have missed, you’ve gained something, and for everything you gain, you lose something." It is the universal law; nobody can deny it.

When we’re self aware of everything that's happening within us and outer environment then we realize that there are various ways to approach the situation, other way of seeing it and dealing with it.

If we understand this important concept, then the game is over; winning is obvious.

Else, we keep struggling with it without understanding or finding the real solutions.

Everyone's problem... (IM 570)

Everyone is born with a capacity to learn how to dream and the humans who lived before us taught us how to dream the way society dreams. Every single individual has defined and self-imagined themselves based of it.

We have our own image of perfection. We have our own definition of success and failure, pain and pleasure, happiness and sorrow.

Our image of perfection is the reason we reject ourselves, it is why we don't accept ourselves the way we are, and why we don't accept others the way they are. Our definition of success and happiness is the reason why we reject our failure and why we live a sorrowful life.

There is nothing wrong with defining all this, but it becomes a disaster when we start believing and accepting it with our lives.

Do we see reality as it is? (IM 569)

Human beings have always had a dangerous habit: we mistake what feels obvious for what is true. When an idea is repeated for long enough, accepted by enough people, and reinforced by habit, it begins to feel unquestionable. But history shows how often that confidence has been misplaced.

There was a time when people believed the earth stood still and everything revolved around it. There was a time when many believed the earth was flat. These were not foolish conclusions to the people living inside them; they were accepted realities. What changed was not reality itself, but the willingness to question what had seemed settled.

The same danger remains with us now. What we call reality is often a mixture of perception, inheritance, and assumption. We absorb beliefs from culture, education, tradition, authority, and repetition, then slowly forget that they were interpretations to begin with. Once that happens, certainty becomes more about familiarity than truth.

This is why intellectual humility matters. To ask whether we see reality as it is is not to become cynical or paralyzed. It is to remain open to correction. Reality does not bend to our confidence, and truth does not become stronger because it is widely accepted. The disciplined mind remembers this: what feels obvious may still be incomplete, and what has gone unquestioned for centuries may still be wrong.

The result of predicting the future (IM 568)

We often spend days predicting how our actions will shape and impact our future, and most of the time we are wrong. Then we spend the rest of our days worrying about those actions and regretting that our predictions did not go our way.

There is an irony in trying to control the future by sitting in a small room, having conversations with peers, or overanalyzing simple thoughts. To me, this approach is just insane. We act as if we can dictate every outcome through pure mental exertion.

What if, instead of fretting and fuming, we simply did our best in the present? We should let the future take care of itself because, even if we plan for it, the future is going to take care of itself anyway.

Focusing on the current moment is the only way to build a foundation that lasts. When we direct our energy into the work right in front of us, we stop wasting our mental capacity on variables we cannot influence. The best way to manage what comes next is to execute with excellence right now.

Are we facing "the worst economic contraction"? (IM 567)

The U.S economy is facing the worst economic contraction in the modern history. The unemployment rate is increasing in rapid face due to the coronavirus pandemic. More than 26 million American have filed for unemployment as the small and even large companies are running out of money as they couldn't generate revenue.

When the economy opens, it's sure that all of the people can't get back to work as the number of employees has to be reduced as the growth of the company is declined. We can expect various companies shutting down as they are running out of money and on the other hand, we're not sure when the economy reopens.

But there is always a hope of light in the future. We can get all the unemployment eradicated. We can get back the bullish economy. There is a hope that we can get back the better future.
