Who is your “Role Model”

This is my first ever article. I don’t know how to write but I want to write. I never thought to express myself through my articles. It’s fun and creative and it feels so good to express yourself. Today I want to ask, “Who is your Role model?” . If you are a body building freak, your answer might be Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallon), if you are a novel reader then probably Chetan Bhagat, if an Enterpreneur then Steve Jobs or Marc Zuckerberg, if an actor then Shahrukh Khan, if a cook then Sanjeev Kapoor, if a music listener then Arijit Singh.

These are all my ideals. But the question that arise here is, “If they are your role model then are you really following them?” The above legends are my role models and I tried following them but I found that this enthusiasm gets reduced by time. I woke up in the morning at approximately 9 degrees temperature and went to gym to make a healthy and sexy body (just like Rocky Balboa) but I found it got reduced by time. Now I wake up at 6 o clock and I only work out for 45 minutes. I even tried singing 6 hours a day and now I feel like to record only 1 song a day. I read a biography or watched a biopic of famous entrepreneurs and now I don’t feel like to see it. I watched Shahrukh khan’s Chakde 4 times but now I don’t feel like to see it. I even tried to cook a simple dish like a milkshake and felt like I am Sanjeev Kapoor and now I don’t even make a tea by myself.

The point in mentioning these is that if your role model is someone other than “You”, your enthusiasm will get decreased day by day. Instead of making others as your Role Model if you will make “Yourself” the same then the enthusiasm will never go down. Now, when I wake up and alarm starts shouting at 6’o clock in the morning I feel like to sleep again, then I say these words to myself, “ Are you feeling pity for yourself?” and suddenly my body and mind gets up and says “Fuck you! I am proud of myself”. This is the moment when I make myself my Role Model and I continue to beat myself.

You might be impressed with others for a time being but if you are self obsessed then you are a fucking energetic super model.

Following are the points which you can do to be self obsessed-

1. Start writing your thoughts, so that you can read them and be proud of yourself.

2. Take time to do something that your soul loves to do. (painting, singing, dancing, gyming)

3. Always talk in front of the people who believe in you and listens to you.

4. Always do something that is totally new in your life,so that you can have an experience of each and every fuckin thing.

5. Always stay away from the negative and bithching people.

6. The most important- ALWAYS PRAY. (If you are a believer then awesome,if not just close your eyes and talk to the air so that you can express what is in your heart)

I can’t guarantee that these things will make you self obsessed but I am pretty sure you will be a Role Model for yourself. You will start loving yourself and when you will love yourself, everyone will love you. You will see how day by day people will start getting inspired by you and will follow you.
