Let your weakness be your strength

Who is not weak? Not physically but mentally. You can overcome physical weakness by taking some rest but it is not possible when you are shattered mentally. While some of them are strong enough to ignore some issues coming their way, the people with weak heart fall a prey.

Work! Work! Work. All of us start to work from early in the morning until sunset. Almost every one has a purpose in life. Infact that being the reason why we do things even if we are not interested.

When you are the boss you do things of your choice. Nobody to question or command you. But once you start working for someone else, many issues arise as to - What have you done? Why don't you learn from him? Iam not satisfied with your job. The list goes on...... making us physically weak. Despite our hard work no words of appreciation.

Infact, such remarks make us weak. Inspite of giving your full effort, such low remarks make us weak and rethink- Am I really capable? Will I be able to achieve the target? Why this happens only to me? Where did I go wrong? Such questions make you weak. These are negative thoughts which gives only negative response.

Sometimes when we see our colleagues shine like a star amidst the team, our heart sinks. Almighty has given different capabilities to different person. May be some are fast and some are intelligent when compared to others. But not all has the same capabilities. When one outshines in his office work, the other might shine some other field. May be he is a good father, a good son and a good husband. To be honest, these people are the one who are a part of the good society by bringing up their children worth a million. May be he is under estimated in his professional job but a super hero in his personal life.

Let me tell you about a story of a young coward police officer who has infact chosen the job by chance and not by choice. Each time he was entrusted with a specific mission he produced a fake medical certificate to the superiors saying he had this ailment and suffering for long. So each time he escaped from such challenging mission. He was made a laughing stock in front of his colleagues. Finally he had to face an encounter in the police station which he couldn't avoid. The result being he was beaten up and injured profusely . He was given permission to visit the clinic.

As part of examining his body, his blood sample was taken for a medical test. He was supposed to collect the blood result after two days. After two days, when he went to collect his test result he was asked to meet rhe superior Doctor immediately. Wasting no time, he met the Doctor who immediately said his days were counted, meaning, he will die very soon as he was suffering from cancer.

He couldn't withstand what was just told to him. Though first few days went on with tears he decided to prove that his weakness is his strength. So he decided to take up the rough and tough mission assigned to him. And he came out like a shining star.

Because this time it was his weakness that gave him strength. He knew his days were being numbered, so even if he die in an encounter, he would be remembered as a real hero. For his outstanding victory he was given a warm reception by his superiors. After all this, he went to the hospital to get his health check up. To his surprise he found an old man laughing at him. When asked the reason for his laughing the oldman said he was the one who interchanged both their sample test , which meant the oldman was the one suffering from cancer.

This very story is an important note showing how strength can overcome weakness.
