Donโt wait for inspiration
Growth stops when we cherish our past more than our future i.e when we embrace tradition more than innovation. We must accept the challenge of finding new ways to do old things. Innovation is not about destroying but creating , its about fulfilling the true intent in the old.
I have never been attracted to those who destroy but to those who build , never to the critics but to the creators. We destroy the old by building the new. No one travels on the back of a horse any longer, that is not because we killed the horses but we simply built a motor car.
There is a kind of thinking that results in failure, regression and degradation.
There is also a kind of thinking that produces a Champion.
"I have discovered that love doesn't guarantee the success of a relationship. Love cannot help you stick to one person all year round, and on the other hand, cheating isn't always a product of not loving your partner.
In fact, loving someone doesn't guarantee not falling in love with someone else. Relationships work out mostly because of our heads not our hearts.
It works out because of our emotional maturity, empathetic intelligence and self discipline; because, time will come when you'll see more beautiful, handsome, romantic, intelligent, sexy, rich, curvy and God fearing people than the one you're in a relationship with.
In those times, love will not help you. Self control will help you. Emotional intelligence will come to your rescue and commitment will keep you going.
With those characteristics, no matter how you feel for someone else, the person you're committed to will rank first in your life.
You think happily married people don't see better people than the ones they married to? You think they don't feel funny sometimes? You think they don't catch feelings? They do!
But understanding that commitment is greater than feelings and it is the great arsenal that destroys those unhelpful impulses.
You can fall in love with anyone, but building a relationship takes absolutely more than what attracted you to them and takes more than love.
We are too fond of loving when it's convenient and sweet. We are too fond of loving when love is there; but that can only last for just the first 3 - 6 months of the relationship in many cases.
After then, you'll realise that the feelings have dropped and it's now your responsibility to make the relationship work, not love's responsibility.
Relationships cannot be readymade. You have to build it and it's never always about love, it requires commitment and intelligence.
On the long run in marriages, it's not just love that keeps them together forever, it's determination and commitment.
Everyone falls in love; it
