Celebrate your Mistakes? or Life?

Yesterday while surfing through the internet and as usual in search of quest of my life I came across this simple but very meaningful blog by Leo Babauta Why You Should Celebrate Your Mistakes.

The message here is very simple yet clear, How often we consider the mistake done by us as a good learning experience which can help us excel to success or as author says brilliance?

When I started thinking about it my thoughts started getting deeper. Now my mind was talking about the different yet relative aspect of it, it replaced the mistakes and successes to good times and bad times and started thinking that its fine with mistakes but how often we actually love and celebrate our lives? In the busy lives of ours do we actually celebrate life apart from some weekend gateways and a holiday to some exotic destination? How often we take things happening to our life positively? What really excites us about the future?

So far it was fine for me to fight with my thoughts to compare the mistakes with Life and how we should actually think of life in first place than other things? Now comes the tricky situation there are learning when you do mistake which enables you to improve moving forward, I lost my self in thoughts that what life teaches us to enable us to enjoy it more and more every day?

After lot of brain storming the only thing i could figure out was that the world around makes you more and more practical thinker, selfish and a mean person. I am not being sadistic here but the fact is, this is what they call as Professional and Mature. That's not a totally bad situation to be in but that is definitely not something which can make us happier day by day.

Then what is it which we need from life? Most simple to ask yet almost impossible to answer for most of the leaving beings present on this planet.

Well we can never say that we have found the answer to this question but there are few things which definitely matter as far a Joy of Life is Concern:

1. Be Yourself, Think of it right and try to do things your way instead of following others. I have myself experienced this and take it from me even when you will not always be at the better side the feeling of achievement and learning from past mistakes will definitely be very high and it will encourage and shape all your future endeavors.

2. Don't know the author of this quote but again something from which we can learn a lot:

"A man who does not think for himself, does not think at all...!"

As I earlier stated that life teaches us to be mean and selfish, be selfish and plan things for your self right in advance, be mean and see whats right and whats wrong for you, be practical and try to do things you are comfortable doing. You don't have to use these "qualities" with people around you to hurt them or use them, use it positively for yourself. The joy of execution will always keep you energized when the plan is right. It will get you the right amount of kick and confidence required to achieve your ultimate goals.

3. Show gratitude to people around you.

At least once in a Day Thank God or if you don't believe in one then Over beloved parents or the Universe or mother earth. They all contribute to the reason of your existence and trust me it gives immense pleasure and peace of mind. Value every person around you as they make essential ingredients of thing what we call life.

4. and finally something I always find my solace in:

"Love the Life you Live, Live the Live you Love"

This is something I totally believe in, I find it most important as it tells us to be satisfied and happy about our existence and achievements at the same time it also challenges in a way to keep looking for the life we will love or something which will make us happier than ever.

Love Current and Keep Looking for a better future and happier tomorrow...!!!

Let me know your thoughts, suggestions and views on the same.

Start Living,
