![]() Author has written 5 stories for Gintama. The world does not revolve around you. It will not come crashing down when you do. I might be a champion now, but I didn’t achieve it on a whim. I went through a hellish training period to get here, kiddo. What defines humans? Personalities, courage or good points? In my opinion, humans are defined by the choices they make in life. Get up. The ground ain’t gonna push your stinking ass back up, kiddo. Procrastination is one hell of an enemy. Success will be the prize if you can manage to overwhelm it. Pretty words are easy to utter; I would like to see you put them in motion. Everyone starts at the same point in life: Bill Gates, Barack Obama and other influential figures on Earth. What made these figures stand out from the rest? Pure effort and dreams, my boy. Those are what set them apart. Death is but the next step to life. There is no validity in fearing it. Instead, embrace it like the brother you never had. You could gaze at famous figures and mutter that you could never reach their heights. Continue making that idiotic comment as people around you soar to their heights. Then, you mutter that you will never have been able to reach the heights of the people around you. At this point, just shove that brain of yours up your throat. Every second counts. Every damn second took give you a second’s advantage. It might be tedious and stuff, but who’s the victor in the long run? You. Don’t force your own excuses on another person. You are allowed to ruin your own life, but not others’. Motivation might count for a lot, but it is ultimately a short-run option. In the long-run, determination and efforts take you to the end point. So, stop watching those motivation videos hoping for half-ass momentum and start on that dusty book lying in the corner. Do something you like and love. There’s no point achieving success on a platform you detest. At the end, you will only achieve wealth. Is your entire life only about wealth? If it is, you are a pretty sad person. The best do not rest on their back, staring at the damn lighting. They get up and start to work. The one who gives the best advice is also the one in the worst situation. Information is not going to be fed to you on a silver spoon. You will have to grab that spoon and dish it for yourself. That’s how you learn. Don’t look towards the past. Learn from it. That’s the only way you could escape from your own abyss. Dreams are not mere fantasies. If you laugh at your own dream, you will probably just be a normal, boring salary-worker for the rest of your life. Every time you have the strong urge to give up, remember why you even started in the first place. Once you have reached the pinnacle, do not forget your roots. They are the chains to your sanity, after all. Dislike the feeling of losing? Crying ain’t going to help you, kid. Only sweat will. Everyone makes mistakes. That’s a given fact. However, you could actually work to limit the number of mistakes you commit in life. Every human started at the same point in life, and end at the same point. What differs between them is simply the notion of wealth and status. No human could proclaim to be superior to any other human. Nobody. Not even the king of a country. Get rid of all those damn inferiority complexes of yours, you pathetic bastard. No human was born to be weaker than others. If you don’t want to lose again, get up and start doing something to help yourself. If you start out thinking that you are the worst, you will be the worst at the end. If you start out thinking that you are the best, you will an average person at the end. If you start out wanting to be the best, you will be the best at the end. You see a twisted old hag? Funny, I see a kind-hearted woman who was left to die by the very son she had struggled to raise single-handedly for twenty years. The first impression is temporarily complementary. The second impression is permanently complementary. You aren’t born an introvert, extrovert, antisocial, social or any of that shit. It’s the way you choose to engage life that classifies you into one of those categories. When you lie on your deathbed, you aren’t going to crave for the fortune you had amassed over the years. Neither do you crave for the immaterial items that have cropped up in your life. You can’t carry them to the grave with you, after all. What you are going to crave for are the heartfelt emotions of your own family. I am not the best, I will admit it. But at least I don’t snivel around, thinking I’m the worst, like you. Life isn’t smooth-sailing. It will be boring if that happens. Do you smell the scent of freshly-lawn bed roses? It’s coming from that old man’s smile, right there. When life gets boring, it will throw pickles at you to spice itself up. It’s at that precise moment when you will prove your worth. The world is not fixed in such a way that good people get what they deserve and bad people get what they deserve. The world is not perfect, and it’s a fact. My favourite Gintama quote? "If you've got enough free time to fantasize about your beautiful death... Why don't you just live your life beautifully to the end?" |
