Be Happy – Change Your Attitude

Sometime, we feel depressed with the happenings around us. It appears that somebody is doing something wrong with us or we are somewhere wrong. We try to find out the reason. But we get confused, perhaps due to our pre-biased thinking. That is why we feel that everything is not happening in our favour. We are doing our best. We are putting in hard work. We are trying to get knowledge about the job from every corner. We love our work – we feel that in the past, in our various jobs, luck had been to our side and this time too, it must be on our side. We have sufficient money invested and further, we can invest without any problem. We don’t lack leadership to handle our staff and our colleagues. But we are not able to get the success. Why so?

We tried our best to find out the cause of our depression but could not be able to ascertain why we did not get the success as we desired. Once I got the same problem, then one of good friends felt it and told that for an effective solution of the problem, we needed to make some changes in our working strategy. She made us convinced that somewhere we were wrong. She gave us a simple solution which I would like to share here.

She asked me to write down alphabet of English from A to Z and under each alphabet, I should allot the placement value like 1 to A, 2 to B, 3 to C and the like. Her advice would figure out as below:

A	B	C	D	E	F	G	H	I	J	K	L	M	N	O	P	Q	R	S	T	U	V	W	X	Y	Z
1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10	11	12	13	14	15	16	17	18	19	20	21	22	23	24	25	26

Then she asked me to make an equation each for the options we adopted for solution of our problem like Hard work, Knowledge, love, luck, money, leadership etc., by adopting the placement value for each letter of our options. It may come up as below:

To achieve any goal, all of us have to put in hard work. We know that to begin a job, put it on line and finish it properly takes a lot of hard work but it scores 98 out of 100.

Gaining knowledge of the job to be undertaken plays an important role but it too secures 98 marks out of 100. It means it is not complete in itself to achieve the success.

L		O		V		E
12	+	15	+	22	+	5	=	54

If you undertake any job, you need to love that job. Otherwise you won’t be successful. But alone, it is not helpful to ensure success.

L		U		C		K
12	+	21	+	3	+	11	=	47

Many of us blame our luck for un-successes in our jobs. But it does not play such a major role in getting us the success.

M		O		N		E		Y
13	+	15	+	14	+	5	+	25	=	72

It is true that in every venture, we need to invest some money whether that is initial start towards equity capital, or that is required for back-up expenses for the professionals. Money is something important but not everything for your success. You need a little more to be successful.

Leadership plays a vital role in your success. It enables you to use other people’s time, their abilities and money for accomplishing your job. You can inspire them, you can promote them and you can lead them. But sometime, it does not help you fully. In its perfect working, it scores 97 marks out of 100.
