The story of two brothers

Chuma and Azur, were two nephews of a great Egyptian pharaoh. At the age of 18 they were summoned to the court of the ruler himself.They were given a daunting task-one which could make them or break them.

They were commissioned to build two individual giant pyramids to continue the legacy of Egypt.On completion of the pyramids they would be awarded infinite riches and treasures , kinship, and retirement in big palaces.....
The condition was they could not help each other.

Both of them know the project will take them years nonetheless they are honored by the ruler's offer.
Azur immediately starts the work next day,he carves out the area and starts placing large square blocks of stone solidifying the base.In a month his outer base is ready.In an year his square foundation is ready.Villagers gather and praise him.....

But one thing seriously bothers him.The area where Chuma was to build is barren.No stones.No design.Barren. The place is same as an year before.

Azur visits Chuma.He is in his barn working on same crazy human torture like device.Azur chides him for directly betraying the pharaoh.Chuma confidently tells him to go back while he is working on his own pyramid. He asks Azur to open his eyes and neglect the prize but Azur laughs at him.

Another year passes and Azur solidifies the base of his pyramid and begins the second level. Except a problem arises. Azur struggles in his progress. The stones are heavy and he cannot raise them to the pyramid's second level. Challenged by his physical limitations, Azur seeks the counsel of Bennu, Egypt's strongest man. For a fee, Bennu trains Azur to build bigger and stronger muscles. With great strength, Azur anticipates the heavier stones will be easier to ift onto the higher levels.

Meanwhile, Chuma's pyramid plot of land is still barren. Azur assumes his brother has a death wish since, by all appearances, Chuma is violating Pharaoh's mandate. Azur forgets about his brother and his nonexistent pyramid.

Even after years of labour the pyramid is yet to be half built.As the weight of stones increases Azur has to increase his strength by training and an exotic diet.Still often sometimes he can only place one stone a day. He calculates that he has toil on for another 30 years before the pyramid is built.
Unfazed he continues everyday comparing himself to his brother who hasn't laid a stone in years.

Then one day he hears a commotion in the village.On reaching there he sees a crazy machine built with gears,levers ,cantilevers,shafts and ropes.His suspicion is confirmed.Chuma has started working on his pyramid.Unlike Azur,Chuma has to do no work to place the stones.Heavy stones are
moved quickly and magically.

While Azur's pyramid foundation took over a year to build, Chuma lines up the foundation to his pyramid within one week. The second level that Azur soarduously struggled with is even more shocking: Chuma's machine does thework 30 times quicker. What took Azur two months takes Chuma's machine two days. After 40 days, Chuma and his machine accomplish as much as Azur's three years of toilsome work.

Azur was destroyed. He spent years doing the heavy lifting while Chuma built a
machine to do it for him. Instead of honoring the machine, Azur vows, “I must get stronger! I must lift heavier stones!” Azur continues the hard labor of pyramid building while Chuma
continues to work the crank of his machine.

After 8 years Chuma completes his pyramid.At the age of 26 he is honored by the pharaoh himself and is granted all the riches and power he desires.He now lives in his own palace retired with many concubine!

Meanwhile, Azur is blinded by his capabilities and continues to work everyday. Lift rocks,waste time and money to get stronger, lift rocks, and get stronger. Sadly, Azur refuses to acknowledge his flawed strategy

This mindless prescription leads Azur to a lifetime of toil.Azur has a heart attack and dies while on the 12th level of his pyramid, just two levels from finishing. He never experiences the great riches promised by Pharaoh.

Meanwhile, Chuma retires 40 years early in a crown of luxury. Sloshing in free time, Chuma goes on to become Egypt's greatest scholar and an accomplished inventor. He is entombed alongside Pharaoh in the same pyramid he built.

BEING FREE

Freedom is power.
Power of choice.
Power over self.
But freedom can be overwhelming.
Freedom can help self sabotage you.
But most of all-You'll still have the power of choice.

It was my 12th grade farewell party.
The environment was enthralling.
Everyone was enjoying the show.
Lots of great vibes were going around.
But.
I was disappointed.
I wanted to leave.
I was feeling chronically sad in my own farewell party.
While dancing I wanted to disappear over the face of earth.

Over the years my thinking had become insidiously narrow minded.I was free from the outside,but shackled from chains inside....

I was a broken person.Fear and self doubt had broken me.I was doing what I hated.
You see....I was not myself.
Somewhere along the line I had lost myself.I do not admit I have found myself now but MOST OF ALL I AM FREE.

Society tells us what to do and what not.It assigns you roles which are utter BS.
I am here to tell you that you can tell the society to fuck off.

Maybe like me earlier you are now led down the wrong god damn path.
Maybe your eyes are closed but you think they are open.

Which brings me back to the party.
I felt like a loser.
There I was walking pompously to the party,thinking-I am the man....
Knowing I was a walking piece of nothingness...

Guilt eats you away like anything....

A lot has changed since then.I  feel the power surging through me. 

Maybe you are where I was years ago.Or on the path to it.Or not.

What matters most is that you open your eyes and be aware that you are free.
Free to do anything.
Free to do what matters most.
Through a single choice you can change the path of your life.

Even if you cannot.You must know one thing-Ultimately you chose what to do,not the society,not your friends,not your parents,not your relatives but you......

My eyes have opened now.
When will yours?

One BadAss DemiGod

There is only one way to become a demi-god and that I will tell you.....
Many individual ways but they blend into one single way......
From the starting of human social life to the end of it,there is only one thing has been most admired.....

The way is

Develop COJONES

Now for some dummies out there I want to tell YOU...

It is Balls...

Yeah; I mean GUTS

The single most underrated personality trait that has gone down in human history.

It takes time and patience to develop them....

What would have happened if lords of modern time would not have their balls.

End of times.

Either you can face your problems or run from them.You can fuck the society or get fucked by it.

It is your choice.

Harsh scenarios require harsh choices and decisions. 

Maybe the society thinks you are a loser.Maybe your parents think you are a loser.

Maybe your crush thinks you are a loser.Let them think...

Let them think while you act...

History shows us innumerable examples of warriors who acted in spite of chaos and fear around them.

The amount of guts is measured INVERSELY by the time taken by you to put yourself in an uncomfortable situation. 

More the time taken...LESS THE GUTS.

Why do underdogs win....Their unbelievable cojones....

Demi-Gods do the unthinkable yet they are mere mortals.WHY??

Their ability to think they can do the unthinkable......their balls...

Guts will develop self love.Self Love will change you....

Start by commenting on your own insecurity below....

Just Goddamn Start!

Your Conscious brain will fight you but defeat it.

WHY YOU SHOULD ARM YOURSELF

Lady Luck ain't cheap;
You know she's a hooker,and you often find yourself out of cash....
-Max Payne

He's a fighter,He's a closer.His wife and daughter were shot dead,he was shot at -a lot of times,but instead of keeping his head down he didn't resist, he didn't relent, he went all out.....

HE ARMED HIMSELF

I think we are not prepared,the key is being prepared
.What do you want-To be defenseless when an opportunity strikes,to be confused when you have a chance at revenge, to be out of cash when buying medicines?

Being prepared and arming yourself is the best bet you can make on yourself.
"Speak softly and carry a big stick"-Theodore Roosevelt
Here the stick represents your preparedness.

Look at Janus-The 2 faced Greek god. HE looks at the past for mistakes and he looks forward to plan his future and be prepared.

Arm yourself with anything-Your gun,your contacts,your reserves, your reputation,even your knowledge.
Knowledge is a commodity in 21st century.But unless it is used it is useless......

Look Lady Luck in the eye and tell her she's yours forever....                    
And prepare yourself to protect her.

-Master Solis

A Dose of Realism

Sometimes we get knocked down.
Suddenly.Out of the blue....
We get knocked down when we least expect it.
Pain in my soul forces me to write,my real self fights with my faded shadow.A faded shadow of what I can be.Just like a burning tower.........I ask myself
Where are you?Where have you gone?Will there be enough time for retribution?Will God forgive me for the time wasted,potential wasted,money floundered........
All the relapses for no reason, what my soul feels is treason.....
Living on credit ,banking from the future is the worst way to live.

Let the thunder come,let me hang for my sins on this damn earth.Once the creditors come knocking on my door its time to pay up or face the punishment.I am sure I will endure.But will my soul have the strength for correction?
My worst enemy is the person I look at everyday in the mirror.I feel dead inside.Realism has hit me right in the face.All the promises,all the ambitions,all the chances have come to a standstill....
A hollow man I am,am I a faker?

No

I need a miracle,I need myself to overcome hell.I need myself the most now.I just realized that I am the luckiest person I know and the universe goes hand in hand with my ambitions.I am a miracle.

All I need to do is never look back and relent.Development and comittment 24 X 7....
All the feathers in my cap,all the stripes on my shoulder have come back with this downfall.Sometimes we need to fall before we can stand straight and tall.Sometimes the fall opens our eyes as it opened mine.I had forgotten how fearless and spontaneous I was.

THE PATHS OF GLORY HAVE SHOWN THEMSELVES TO ME....

Remember your 12 yr old inner self who wants to win the world.My 12 yr old self has awaken.....

Why we underestimate our PoweR

We all have some personal failures.Hell,If you don't have,you're just a spectator.....Get off your butt and do something then!
"Why do we fall,sir?""So that we can learn to pick ourselves up"
-Alfred said that and it is 100% true.One thing I learned over my past experiences is that working hard matters ,but what matters more is that you are not worried about failing.You are not worried about the consequences.The only way to live free is to stop being afraid of the future.

Now I go all in and I stick to all the decisions I make.There is no benefit in doubting the decisions you've already made.We underestimate ourselves because of the self sabotaging acts we do.You know in your heart,what's wrong.....
All I see around me are men and women who are not living,but passing their lives.Life in passive mode tastes like shit and you don't want to die with regrets.The day I acknowledged I was not living my life was the day I walked out of hell physically and mentally.Now I am addicted to my life.

Look around yourself.Its your life and its ending a second a time.Once you understand it,mountains will move.Belief over self comes by doing not by dreaming.The universe is fantastic once you open your eyes.If the only time you feel powerful and blessed is when you're high then your life needs fixing.I am powerful and lucky coz i have started believing in myself and the universe.You can be too.....

"The only way to overcome the darkness inside your heart is to believe in yourself,the only way to become powerful is through powerful deeds."

A powerful mindset forces you to do good deeds,good deeds give rise to good habits,good habits give rise to good character and eventually a great environment and lifestyle.....

follow up post on last day of living as a spectator

Some people think life is just plain old luck but some say life depends on our shoulders and it is our responsibility to improve it.Over the time I have realized that life gives us lemons and its our choice what to do with them.Our plans,dreams,beliefs become fluid,changing with time..........

Men riddled with tragedies in their life have given up on their luck,others just count on it.A couple which cannot have children suddenly get a newborn after 10 years.A perfectly healthy 30 year old man suddenly gets testicular cancer.In both the cases luck was involved.But no one knew  that the couple was optimistic even after so much time and the 30 yr old was depressed inside,even he didn't know it.....

I can give innumerable examples.But the truth is no one is sure about anything.Life is unpredictable.It shakes up the stagnant and brings shakers and movers to a stand still.What I know is that the universe listens to you and conveys to you what you really want.One cannot change the environment in which they were brought up.....but they can stop once in a while and ask themselves where they are going.

Seldom do we stop and appreciate what life gives us.Sometimes we throw away what the universe gifts us graciously.And the universe does not respond well to thrown away talents and gifts,who does anyway?Its only after we've lost something we know its value.I used to take life on a pedestal,but one random day I read something which shook my core.And you don't need that special time to change,all you need is to get started and never relent......
