Action is eloquence
So said Shakespeare in Coriolanus. I was down with fever and a
very bad chest infection for one week and therefore, could not write this blog.
Well, the fever came down a little day before yesterday and I was feeling much
better yesterday, but inertia took over. When I got up in the morning, I had
fever again but I remembered this quote ands thought, ' I have to write today.'
Don't we let small things make us stop doing things we don't want
to do or even when we do want to do, the smallest excuse becomes big enough to
procrastinate. I often feel this and then I get angry with myself. All the
motivational gurus and teachers tell us the antidote is to take action. Some of
them even tell you how to do that. But even then most of us listen to these
lectures or read and then get geared up for a few days and then fall again into
the trap of inertia.
What I have found useful is that I come and sit on my computer
after breakfast and one my blog site. I just think of a quote, sometimes even
search for a good one and then just start writing. I am surprised at the flow
of thoughts that come gushing through. Just sit and start writing. For my
poetry though, it is a different ball game. That comes to me usually at night.
Some times I get up with a verse in my mind and then go to my study and finish
the poem.
But yes, action is the language to fulfill our dreams and the
sooner we speak it, the more beautiful our life becomes. Whether it’s talking
action to improve a relationship or finishing a long forgotten project, ACT....
So be it!!!!
