Rise Above Mediocrity

Everyday we have to be our best. What does it mean to be our best?  We often view ourselves in the ordinary light of the day, as ordinary mortals, incapable of rising to the heights of excellence and divinity. But that is because we neither try to understand our inherent divinity nor do we make effort to perform our best in everything we do. We like so much to be steeped in the coils of ordinariness that we prefer to let things go the way they tend to slide. Excellence needs continuous effort at rising above the ordinary. Make 'Be Your Best' the mantra of your life.

Why I am the Best

Does anyone of us ever try to think, why I am the best? Each one of us is a gem meant to spread  everywhere its lustre. Each one of us carries within himself/herself  a treasure house of values, feelings, emotions and spiritual strength that makes him or her unique. It's not only our DNA or genes that  make us what we are. The qualities that we carry within us also shape the vision that directs our footsteps in our journey of the world. Why don't we value our uniqueness? It's because of the prevailing world-views  offered by the dominant classes of the rich and powerful that deny us the possibility of being great. If everyone is great, or thinks in that fashion, who will invest the so-called celebrities with an aura of greatness?  Obviously, the rich, powerful and the celebs have a vested interest in keeping others in awe of their supposed greatness. Strip the celebrities of their aura given to them by the fawning followers, and they are just ordinary mortals like the rest of us.
Greatness is attuned to greatness, while littleness seeks littleness for its companion.When you enter a big temple or a cathedral, your inner being starts expanding with the size of the architecture, because of your greatness. But if you cherish a feeling of littleness, you start feeling  smaller as you keep walking within the huge structure.Let us make the best of what we are.

Doing Our Best

Every morning when you get out of your bed you confront a brand new day that you can live as you wish. The day will follow your bidding. When we are capable of assimilating all our resources and putting them under the command of our unique Synergy, we can achieve anything that we want. The trouble is that most of the time we tend to work much below our capacity and capability. But we need to be always at our best, to put all our energy and strength in everything we do, so that we can achieve the best possible results. The nature of the universe is such that it demands our best efforts for successful outcomes. We should be in full command of our nervous energy for all purposes. Even if the work concerned is not of much importance, we must give it our best. Only then can doing our best  become a habit with us. Doing our best should always come as a natural response of our mind and body to all challenges, problems and questions. Once you have decided to be your best and do your best always and all the time, you will realize that you have become a master magician. Everything will then dance to your tune.
