“I can’t bear this pain.
This is too much.
I don’t know a way out of this.
I am stuck if only I knew
HOW to get out of this situation”
If you are clear of the Why,
the purpose behind your action
you will always find your way
He who knows the Why of his
Victor Frankl (also attributed to Friedrich Nietzsche)existence, can bear any of the How
Think about the last time,
when you were crystal clear
about why you were doing, what you were doing
It could be a fitness routine or a project or a sports routine
or you were learning a dance or a language
You always found your way around, your motivation
You were even convinced that the discomfort was necessary and temporary
And now, recollect a time when you kept asking yourself
“Why am I even doing this?”
you literally had to drag yourself to do it,
there was no motivation
Every minute seemed like an hour
and you gave up so many times
When you are driven by a purpose, by your dharma
you don’t need any motivation
you don’t need any direction
You make your own way
Dharma need not be complicated
Right now, your dharma could be to clean up your room
your Dharma could be to call your dear one
your Dharma could be to be
your Dharma could be to tidy up your life
Once we are clear of the ‘Why’
‘How’ does not stop us
Every obstacle, every adversity
spurs us on, eggs us on
brings out the best in us
