The world is changing faster than your thoughts

 What you are able to see today is just a small piece of the things happened in the past, some of which are inter related. If you are seeing this in the media or reading about something, it is probably that you are already Iiving in the past. For eg., A small thing for today's world is a Mobile phone, everyone owns one, but that was a process involving many decades in development. So how do you become different? Well, let's think of some legends like Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Jeff Bezos or Elon Musk. They all had one thing in common, and many other famous people, had the same trait. To do something new, that was never done. 

Now let me frame that from a very common perspective, you want to be successful. But what things are you doing to be successful?? Tja  answer would be probably you might be saying I am working hard. But working hard on what and how? 

If you get the answer, note is down and then  see around yourself what other people around you are doing around you. If 98-99 percent of people are doing the exactly same things as you do, like doing a 9-9 job, then how do you measure yourself being successful than them?

Obviously the definition of success is different for everyone.  But many people have the most common goal to have a decent job, earn handsome amount of money, get a car, house etc. Thats it. 98-99% people are working on these. And the rest 1-2%? They done even bother about house or car or job, all that matters is they are doing what they love to do. And everything else follows them. 

Did they do something wrong? No

Did they follow others like most people? No

What they do is to be in present and future. By present I do not mean the flash news popping up that nobel proze for physics is given to... No.. thats   not present. Thats already a decade old research. Whats 'now' means is not what 98% already know. 'Now' means what 99% people will be knowing after some time. 

Now Imagine what would have happened if Bezos would have followed the traditional way to compete with seal stores in 1995? Nothing. But he chose not to compete against but to build. Build against the traditional Ideas. 

So whats a traditional Idea? Well that's what 98% are following, get a job and thats it. Congratulations! If you are one of them, do let yourself know that you are a part of the most unnecessary competition on the earth. 

Now competition is what? Getting 100 on 100? Or getting bigger sales figure somehow for only 6 months and after that just hoping something different happens next time. Well thats the definition of short to medium lived thinkers. Long range thinkers do not worry about the today, because they already know that today is the result of yesterday and we cannot build tomorrow on yesterday. Today has to be unique, which has never been accomplished by anyone. 

This is the real definition of today. What's happening with your thoughts is now, whats happening when you read something is just to reframe your thinking in the direction that this thing has happened and now you have to decide whats next. That action must come from within yourself. You must not seek anybody else's help in what you want to do, but probably asking how it can be done really helps.
