Strive.

Strive => To make efforts; to use exertions; to endeavor with earnestness; to labor hard.

This week I want to strive and utilize 168 hours I get in a week. As a mortal, I do have to sleep and take rest. Assuming i sleep 7 hours a day (i am awake at night), i still have 119 hours to spare. I am really going to utilize those 119 hours. As of today, i am going to abstain visiting social networking sites(especially twitter for a week), Not Being online in IM all day and not being available to any of the off-line friends for a week(FYI: I am switching off my phone for a week). Let see how this works out for me. I will tell you next week, how my “168 hour week” was. Until that time wish me luck and talk to you next week. Have fun.

“It is in vain to expect our prayers to be heard, if we do not strive as well as pray.” – Aesop’s Fables

  • The whole human civilization lives on Hope, we hope there will be a better tomorrow, we hope there is less war and more peace, we hope nobody dies of hunger. When we hope, we actually pray, some people hope to idols, some hope to invisible force, some hope to themselves(athiests). But we as humans will never stop hoping, until the world becomes perfect.
  • Ok dont brand this comment atheistic. Its just about the quote from Aesop's Fables that caught my eye, and Logically what i say next should make sense -
    If you have to strive hard anyway then why do you have to pray, just believe in your self. Just Believe that you can achieve what you want and believe that you don't need an invisible hand to overlook your imperfections and push you to achieve it. You can do it all by your self.
  • All the best. Post about it next week.
