Life's success depends on right attitude

Never believe the lines on your hand to predict your future,
because people who have no hands also have a future.
-THINK!

The above said quote was sent as SMS to me. It was thought provoking indeed.

When I was in my college days, there was a professor from a different department
who used to travel in my bus. He was a kind of person who had an interest in palmistry.
He was very friendly with everyone but always created an opportunity to read palms.
I am a kind of person who is curious about all these things. I believe in it sometimes and sometimes I have a feel that am just curious. May be it depends on what kind of impression I have on the person who reads the palm. I was once forced to be a victim of his palm reading. I hardly remember what he told me, but am sure many of what he told me did not turn out to be true.

At some point of time in life ,when we end up with problems which we think are unsolvable, we run away from solving the problem and start analyzing our fate or future. Instead if we start working on how to approach the problem and solve it, am sure we are close to completion.


I have interacted with visually and mentally challenged children. I had once been to a school for visually impaired children. The purpose of the visit was to aid them to read their academic portions as they felt they required some assistance in it. The children were nostalgic when they had new people to get acquainted with. I was there to assist some 3-4 children who were around 12 yrs old. I was also there to teach them computer science. I thought them for quite sometime and they really liked it. Later we started playing word building, antyakshari and many more. There was a guy in the lot who had excellent keyboard playing skills. I was thrilled to see his talents. I learnt from him that passion and optimism can bring out excellent results.


Most of the success in life lies in self confidence, determination, perseverance and on top of it optimism. Optimism is like a seed which gives nourishes favorable results.


I personally feel from many of my experiences that, we can come out of any critical point when we remain to be bold, patient, persevering, optimistic and leave the rest to the almighty. The thought really provoked me to write this article as I wanted to bring out the fact here that life does not depend on the lines in palm.
