To Be or Not To Be

"To Be Or Not To Be" (from Hamlet 3/1) by William Shakespeare.
Who hasn't heard of these lines before? I guess most of us has.
For those who haven't, let me quote the exact lines from the greatest Writer ever.

"To be, or not to be: that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them? To die: to sleep;
No more; and by a sleep to say we end
The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to, 'tis a consummation"


But why am I quoting him here?? The people who know me would be surprised...
They would be thinking Amit and Shakespeare?? What a strange combination.
None of my close ones would believe this to be true.

But friends, isn't blogging and Amit a strange combination in the first place?
Ain't I already extrovert enough to keep expressing my self to everyone I bump into?
Why would I choose a medium like blog to communicate to others?

I know all of you would be going through a lot of questions.
But we will answer all of them over time. But to start with All of you know I am unpredictable.
So, Here I am with my First Ever blog to the world. Don't be surprised..

Let me return to my actual point. "To Be Or Not To Be".
I have been fascinated by these words since I can't even remember.
I always found a great meaning behind these 6 words.

I have always been inspired by them, I have always been challenged by them.
I have always felt that These words interrogated my existence.
Is the life all about getting born, living and dying??
Is the life all about getting up in the morning, going to office, coming back and sleep?
Were we humans made to do mundane stuff over and over??
Why can't majority of us make a mark in life?
Why only few of us rise and say "World, watch out, I DO EXIST"??


These are some questions which haunt me always.
Why can't I be one of them? The greats who accomplished so much in life were they so different?
Were they Born Talented?? Don't we possess those qualities?
Can only your talent get you to the top?

I believe the answer to this question is "NO".
I believe everyone is Special and has ability to get there.
It's just that our minds are made to find excuses from long and risky path.
We get bogged down by our limitations, our fears, our laziness and our will power.
It's US who let ourselves down.

We just need more confidence in ourselves.
I guess these questions are enough though provoking..
I hope I have succeeded at least a bit in provoking your though process.
And I believe path to success start right here.

We together can dig deep into it and find a solution.
We will deal with each hurdles of success one by one.
So, do keep tuned in for more updates...

and do keep posting your thoughts..
As I Said it all starts with THINKing.
