Everyone needs that trigger

All of us are loaded with huge amounts of talents, skills and abundance of intelligence and energy. Each one of us possess a diamond or a dynamite in ourselves in terms of the worth and explosive capacity respectively. We need to explore the hidden treasure in each of us to scale the unimaginable heights of life. In the search of finding the strength and support that can accomplish his dreams, man has travelled across the world, and sometimes into space too than trying to find them in himself. No gun which is loaded with bullets fires all by itself at the enemies. There is a trigger for every gun that fires away the fears of life. Everyone needs that trigger to jump into real-time action. You have the chance to be that right trigger in the lives of those who are in your network; use it well.

Going back to the story of Ramayana, an ancient manuscript of India, there is an episode wherein someone has to fly across the Indian Ocean which is widespread thousands of kilometres to reach Lanka, the land of the evil king Ravana. Many monkeys claim different distances that they can fly across but Hanuman, being the staunchest devotee of Sri Rama doesn't raise his voice. This startles his seniors who were very much sure that this magnanimous feat could be achieved by none other than Hanuman only. Then one of the seniors goes to Hanuman and speaks to him about his strengths and his achievements when he was a child. Hanuman, being one of the Supreme deities starts recollecting his inner strength and starts growing in size to get ready to leap across the Indian Ocean, a massive feat which he finally accomplishes. Likewise each one of us has expressed our best forms or our best performances in some or the other places or at times. Since the human memory is not as long-lasting as that of a computer, we tend to forget our own capacities and credibility. At such points of time, all of us need some triggers that can put us back into our peak forms once again. Sometimes situation can become one such trigger. Sometimes people around us become the triggers for us. All that we need to know are that we are needed to get triggered as soon as possible. There is no point of loading the ammunition if you're not using the weapons. In the same way, there is no point having loads of talents in us if we are unable to use them for a good cause.

Different people get triggered for different reasons. One must excavate his thinking process to find out the reasons because of which he can get triggered. Humans are experts at studying about others than themselves. Using the same strength each one of us has the ability to assess our friends or relatives much better. Let's use the same power to find out what are those triggers which are absent in their lives. Being an outsider we can find those missing ones and supply such triggers to others on a regular basis whenever required. If each one of us can be those triggers for the people around us then each one of us stand the chance of getting our triggers from the people around us. This mutual triggering can empower each one of us individually and our society as a whole.

Vote of confidence

Work needs to be completed. Who does the work doesn't matter most of the times. Not a single person can do all the work. So work needs to be shared. One who defines work and the one who does the work need not be same all the time. On many occasions there are different people involved at different steps of the process required to complete the work. Those who get nominated to do a work get the vote of confidence to work by the master who defines the work. Only who defines the work can give the deadline for the work. The post-process steps of the work can only be decided by him. It is the vote of confidence on him.

When a work is shared on your shoulders you have won the vote of confidence amongst all others who exist, and hence you deserve to take ahead the work. No work is work done until it is completed. There must be a time decided as to when the work needs to be completed. Only that target time can give the ultimate zeal for someone to complete the work at the best speed by walking extra miles. Earning just the vote of confidence to start a particular kind of work is insufficient. One should also win the belief that s/he can carry forward the work in the right direction, give it a perfect destination and also live up to the work done. When this kind of confidence on your partner lacks in you, no matter when the work starts, it never gets completed. It just becomes a never-ending process. It doesn't lag in progress because you or your partner is working very slowly on it. It becomes a deadline-never-met project because none has decided the delivery date of the work. Each one is investing his/her time in every other possible work that comes on the table than on the work that was shared between the two. When there is no clarity of the kind of output that shall be created and not much confidence on the person with whom you are sharing the work, it's difficult to set a deadline and follow up each other to achieve it. That's when we leave the decision to time to take care of the work and ask the destiny to make the project reach its dead end. At the end it becomes very easy for the work-definer and the work-executor to blame it on God that He wanted the work to get delayed and lagged until it reached its completion.

If the objective is to complete the work then a firm of vote of confidence must be bestowed on the person you share the work with, because you are the decision maker. If you cannot feel the complete vote of confidence on the person you're sharing the work with, then, not only the work will be incomplete, the person you're sharing the work with also lose out his self-confidence as he is also not able to see the completion point of the work of which he dreamt of. That's where one should be very careful while choosing the person with the right vote of confidence so that s/he can share about the complete plan of action of the work than just merely defining the work so that everyone on the project is clear about the delivery point. No matter how long you work what matters at the end is whether you deliver your work or not.
