Majestic Mantras by one of the top philanthropists in the world, Ratan Tata
1. “Ups and downs in life are very important to keep us going because a straight line even, in an ECG, means we are not alive.”
Success and failures are a part of one’s life. The constant ups and downs help you become a better version of yourself.
2. “Take the stones people throw at you and use them to make a monument.”
No matter how much people criticise you and your work, don’t let their negative comments and remarks prevent you from dreaming and achieving success.
3. “People still believe what they read is necessarily the truth.”
A famous saying says that ‘all that glitters is not gold.’ Likewise, whatever you read or hear cannot always be the truth. The content you consume might provide misleading information. Therefore, it’s important to think twice before believing in what you read.
4. “Don’t be serious; Enjoy life as it comes.”
Your work and career are equally important. However, you should enjoy every moment of your life. It is essential to try and live in the present.
5. “None can destroy iron but rust; likewise, none can destroy you but your mindset.”
Your mindset is your powerful resource. You should keep focusing on your future, no matter how many hardships or failures you have faced. Keep a positive mindset and you will realise that you can do anything.
6. “All of us do not have equal talent, yet all of us have an equal opportunity to develop our talents.”
Everyone has different potentials; you might be good in one thing and bad in another. However, there are ample opportunities to develop your talents that are presented to us every day. It is up to you how you can utilise them.
7. “If you want to walk fast, walk alone. But, if you want to walk far, walk together.”
It isn’t necessary that if you are successful, you have to be alone. When you have a support system such as your friends and family, your journey becomes all the more meaningful.
8. “Deal with the crisis in such a way that you can hold your head high and sleep well at night.”
You must learn to deal with crises with courage and confidence. In time, you will overcome them with flying colours. Ultimately, it will let you hold your head high and sleep peacefully at night.
