Failure to Success

Have you been limited by your surrounding circumstances? Are you conforming instead of breaking free to be you who you’re meant to be and reach for your limitless success? Just like a ship is not made for the harbor and the falcon is not designed to sit on the branch, you and I weren’t created for a mediocre life. There is more to life than to settle for the familiar, the mundane and the safe zones.

In today's episode of Failure to Success, I have spoken about how inspiration plays a pivotal role in our lives & helps us become unlimited. I have also narrated an inspirational story "The Two Falcons" which teaches us a very important lesson, We have to develop our capacities and potentialities and take the leap of faith as the saying goes: "The bird's trust is not in the branch on which it rests, but in its own wings".

When we watch movies and see celebrities, we think they are very lucky people. Because they are rich, luxury living and luxury cars. People respect them a lot. But people know little about the problems and struggle they fought to achieve success. In todays episode of Failure to Success I have talked about how its never too late to dream & start a new journey in our lives.  This is a story of Boman Irani who faced who faced several failures in his early life but he never gave up and followed his dream to be an actor. He lost his father in at a very early age, he was surrounded by women in his house like his mother, 3 elder sisters, five maasis, chaachis etc he had not heard of a male voice which left a big impact on his childhood. He had a speech impairment & use to talk like "Virus" a character he played in 3 idiots, this got him a lot of inferiority complex. He worked as a waiter at a hotel, he also took care of a bakery for 12 long years for  living but never gave up on his dream. But, overcoming all his struggles, he became a famous photographer before he forayed into acting.

Since then, he has entertained the masses with appreciated roles in movies such as Munnabhai M.B.B.S, Lage raho Munna Bhai, 3 Idiots, Khosla ka Ghosla, etc.

Boman Irani believes that passion drives everyone to excel.

In this episode of Failure to Success, I have written and narrated a story about a small girl, this tells us that children are innocent, they have a clear thinking and they express what they feel. There emotions need to be heard, if we do not come down to their level and connect with them we cannot understand what their feelings are. Sometimes as a parents we give them our beliefs and prejudices which we received from our upbringing. This story also touches upon a very important aspect of parenting that children dont do what we ask them, they do what parents do through role modelling.
