Motivation within 3 minutes

“Need Motivation? watch it, it’s not waste your 3 minutes”- This is what the title was on youtube. I had my share of motivation from this. I hope it would help you out for the day or forever.

When you are trying to follow your dreams you will go through the phase very similar to that of the little boy. You are mocked at your trials, ridiculed at your mistakes, de-motivated when failed and often questioned about the securities of life.  Cynthia Occelli says “When people undermine your dreams, predict your doom or criticize you, remember they’re telling you their story, not yours.”  The ones who criticize you today are the same ones who praise you tomorrow.

Imagine answering every person and making them understand your efforts.. isn’t it exasperating? It’s a part and parcel of your journey towards reaching your goal and you have to go through a lot of unnecessary advises and suggestions. Why not transfer all the energy and focus on your dreams instead. I know it isn’t as easy as I say. It’s going to be tough but nothing greater than your will power, right?

The more you focus on what you want in life the more the focus fades away from what you don’t want.

  2. Anupriya Mishra

    Beautiful post. I loved the mention of quote: “When people undermine your dreams, predict your doom or criticize you, remember they’re telling you their story, not yours.”

  3. Abhijit Ray

    Very nice. As some said first they ignore you, then they fight you, finally they join you. Story of our lives.

    • True Abhijit. I like the saying by Gandhi “First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.”

  4. The lines at the end of the articles are really awesome.
    The more you focus on what you want in life the more the focus fades away from what you don’t want.

      Great video ! initially was feeling sorry for the kid but what a flexibility and talent he had ! and how true are the words !

    • Thank you Nitin :) That’s something I realized recently. I had the tendency to worry on the other things which didn’t matter and gradually that’s where my entire focus was wasted.

      • great, now as you described about the findings of your introspection, I’ll try that I shouldn’t do them :) :p
        I am damn smart :3 :p :p

    True, people will be there to demotivate you but you are there to stay focussed and motivated through the journey. In your life story you are the Star not the others

  6. Ravish Mani

    Hahaha…..I couldn’t stop myself laughing at me because I don’t understand the video in its entirety except the message :)

  7. “When people undermine your dreams, predict your doom or criticize you, remember they’re telling you their story, not yours.”

    What a lovely quote Vidyashree and what a superb video. Super like this blog of yours…. Thank god, while I was just clicking on Post, I checked ur names Vidhya :)

    • Ha ha Alok you did a smart check :D
      Thank you, I loved the quote too Alok, it so much defines why people keep mocking you.

  8. Thank you Vinay for sharing such a beautiful video…. :) Loved the quote – “When people undermine your dreams, predict your doom or criticize you, remember they are telling you their stories, not yours ” – Cynthia Occelli.. So deep line of thought..

  9. The writing on the chit the boy opens in the last few minutes of the video is unclear , is it “Teach me?” . Cute boy, cute video :P And coming to the part where one is ridiculed and mocked , Cynthia Occelli puts it beautifully in one lovely quote :)

    • Yea Najm, its “Teach me” And that’s how it happens with most of us after the ridicules and mocks by people there comes a time to teach them the same which they ridiculed once.

  10. “The ones who criticize you today are the same ones who praise you tomorrow”

    Exactly! So just listen to them and work on how to prove them wrong in future. :)

    • Anmol I guess you do the same “just listen to them and work on how to prove them wrong in future.” which is actually a perfect way to deal with people.
