What makes a person unstoppable?
What makes them do the impossible?
Is there anything helping them?
What asset do they have?
There are so many questions stopping people from following their dreams,
So many doubts that makes them want less,
But how do the people who achieve great, are able to do it?
Let’s look through a story and see how the magic happens……….
” “
I still remember that day, the day when it all began.
I was just a teen, fooling around with my friends, enjoying my life, breaking the rules and so and so.
Then one day I stumbled upon an article in the newspaper.
The headlines were “If you can sell it, you can do anything.”
It was an advertisement about a sales job. I started reading into it and it fascinated me.
The product was simply a miniature exercising tool kit, but I was intrigued by it’s functions.
I was an early bird and I always liked working out, so reading about that kit made me want to buy it.
I immediately got ready to head out over the address in the advertisement.
On reaching there I saw people selling that product with such an ease.
I stopped over one counter and asked for the kit for myself.
To be honest it was nothing like it was described in the paper, I kept looking at it and wondering ‘what made me come all the way just for this thing?’
Which I wasn’t even satisfied on seeing.
I then looked around, there were many people actually buying it. I went to their side to see what was happening.
There was this one seller, who was illustrating the uses of that product with such a determination, that people were truly falling for it.
I then took that kit from her counter and asked “what makes it different so different?”
She started stating all the pros of the product, and I started analysing it.
I didn’t see anything wrong with what she was saying and thus I gave it a shot, and bought the kit for myself.
I went home and opened the kit right away, separated all the things in it and kept them in my cupboard.
The next day, I tried using them for my workouts. It wasn’t as easy as it was stated to me.
I was a little disappointed then, I knew I didn’t like the product completely when I saw it, but yet I bought it.
I thought of returning or replacing it and so I went back to that store.
I had an encounter with the same person who sold me the kit and at first I spoke in a rude tone, but as the conversation continued I got calmer and calmer.
I again ended up with that kit in my hands and brought it back home. Then I placed it on my table and laughed foolishly at myself.
But though that encounter taught me something and I got an idea of starting my own advertisement channel.
The only difference was that I didn’t had any product to sell and so I thought of reviewing the things that I bought in my day.
It went on for a few days, I posted my reviews on a newly made YouTube page and enjoyed shooting the videos.
At first I posted regularly and then I did it only on the weekends.
The number of views and followers were static and so I kept loosing interest in what I was doing.
Eventually I realised that I had failed miserably in sustaining my channel and so I shut it down.
It was the first time that I did something on my own and failing in it made me feel weak.
I was able to take the defeat and so I started studying the business books and followed the routines of some successful people.
Which later became my hobby, and I continued doing it.
I had a change in my mindset but other than that everything else was normal.
I was at the same house, the same space and doing the same thing over and over again. It was now my schedule for the day.
Then one day I went to the inauguration of a startup company, a friend of my dad’s had started a business in providing travel.
Ours was a small town and the travel business was rare, so there were many people investing in it.
I walked up to the owner and asked how did he came up with the idea.
He stated few particular things, for example- there were many people travelling to nearby cities for jobs, people in small towns were always travel enthusiast and so on.
The point I got from all those things was that he had a clear vision of what he was doing and what he will achieve.
I roamed around the venue for a few minutes when I saw the same girl from whom I bought the exercise kit.
I walked up to her and chatted a little while without stating I knew here and she was very friendly in nature.
I then subtly asked her about that kit, she told me she had known what I was up to the whole time and explained to me how she was successful in selling me the item.
“You knew what you were there to buy, which was a good thing, because most people just come and buy anything they are told will be beneficial to them. One has to create the trust in their customer and that’s what I do. The things I told you weren’t false at all and you believed it. When you came back with a complain, I was only able to convince you otherwise because what I was doing and giving was the truth.”
I was now baffled with what she was explaining to me and I stood there completely silent.
I then asked if it was right to sell something which does not properly work, only on the basis that what she was saying is true.
“The kit works properly believe me, I use it myself, what you wouldn’t have done is read the instructions properly and even if you had read them, you might not have followed them properly.” she explained to me.
I smiled at her and realised again that she was right, I greeted her and parted ways.
The next morning, I opened the kit again and looked at the instructions first.
I realised that there was though a little thing I was doing wrong and after that I was actually satisfied with the results.
Now all these things that happened to me left me wondering what would have happened if I had continued my channel and not given up on it.
Or what might have happened if I had started it with a better vision.
Yes, I read the books and followed successful people, but what would have happened if I had acted upon what I have learned.
And all these things led me to believe that I was the one who was holding back and it was now the time to let go.
Just as I realised all that, the change in me was drastic.

Conclusion.
- If you have a clear vision, nothing can stop you from achieving your goals.
- If you are learning something, then try to imply it, or else it will just go away unused.
- Don’t ever give up on something you believe in and one day it will lead you to great things
Hello guys,
