In this binary world of technology, we want a linear answer to life’s biggest questions. Poets, philosophers and kings readily used the word “GREAT”, “go be great, do something great ! ”
So why not quantify it – Greatness is a progressive overload of a series of successes compounded overtime. Meaning greatness will be a sum of multiple small successes summed up.
mathematical equation will be somewhat like :
GREATNESS = SUCCESS 1+SUCCESS 2+ SUCCESS 3+ . . . . +SUCCESS N
It is a series of small successful tasks completed day in day out. Now some would argue how can success be small, success should be big right, big goals, big aspirations. Well how can you be great if you crack 4-5 big so called “success” in your entire life but inside you feel empty as there will be pockets where you could have pushed more and could have conquered them too.
Look at all the small things in your life, how do you do them, how do you polish your shoe – do you shine the front part coz people are gonna see that or do you shine the entire shoe till the edge ? How do you train – do you stop when it pains or do you keep pushing through it ? The way you handle small things in life makes or breaks your character.
In life, minor success would be to meditate daily for a month till it becomes a habit, if you do that, well you just completed one task successfully, that’s success 1 for you.
In the above equation ‘N’ is whatever it takes to realize your 100% potential, when your hand is raised victorious and you take a deep breath absorbing the moment of greatness, knowing you are complete n your life will be remembered forever 🙂
