The Art Of Losing..

 

The dictionary defines loss as-

Loss (noun): failure to keep or to continue to have something

: The experience of having something taken away from you or destroyed

And indeed, losing means not having something you previously had. But, is losing always a cause of lamentation?

Remember , when you used to break your racing car or plastic doll in the hope that the LOSS would be compensated for , by a new one. Or when you were more than happy to LOSE your mobile phone ,as you wanted a better version of it.

What does losing something do to you?

I say, It makes space in your system .By not having what you always had , you make way for the things you never had and always wanted or deserved.

As much as this applies to all the mundane commodities , it applies to all the people , feelings and circumstances that are a part of our lives.

Often , the sole reason we don’t gain too much , is that we’re too afraid to lose. But , isn’t losing the law of the nature ?

Trees lose old leaves in autumn , and get new lush green ones in spring.

A larva loses its cocoon and flies out as a mesmerizing colorful butterfly.

Even in humans,

We lose hate and get showered with love.

We lose mediocrity and attain unmatched perfection.

Holding onto something you don’t need is a bigger blunder that not chasing what you need!

So, recognize all that is worth losing …

People , relationships , feelings , circumstances , obligations , habits , pressure , unhappiness..

Empty the room of your mind and heart ,let the sun light it up , you would discover a lot of beautiful things that were hidden in darkness under the thrash. You’ll find yourself happier, calmer and stronger . And this, i can guarantee!

A million dollar question that arises here is ‘ Who would tell me , what to lose and what to keep?’

The answer is : Your Faith

Your faith in yourself , your faith in your ambitions , your faith in the almighty, your faith in the people who gave you birth, your faith in your potential , your faith in what you want to be/can be in 10 years from now!

Have faith , it will teach you to differentiate between stepping stones and stray pebbles.

And as my guruji says..

” Dono haath me ladoo to bhagwan ke bhi nahi hote hai , tum to fir bhi abhi insaan ho

Kuch khoye bina jo paaya , vo tumhara kabhi tha hi nahi na kabhi ho sakega “

Like excellence can’t be achieved without losing comfort .

Like peace can’t be achieved without giving up war.

Important cannot be achieved without losing the unimportant.
In the process, you may have to lose people or things that are close to your heart and it would be terrible , painful but in the end you’ll be glad that you did. SUPER GLAD !!! 😀 😀

Lose , to start winning !
