Self Realization: Know Yourself First

“Be yourself, as no one else can.” ― Stephen Richards

We live in a world where every individual has some value. Everyone has some potential, merit and demerits whether they are aware of this or not, it does matter. Self-realization is important. We should recognize our potential as well as of others at the same time. The part which I want to discuss is different from comparing yourself from others. When you compare yourself from others, whatever you get as conclusion will not be worthy for you.

Let us discuss this other way!

There are several creatures in this world. All are dependent on each other so that nature can run its lifecycle. Here some are parasites and Parasitism is a non-mutual relationship between creatures where one creature, the parasite, takes benefits at the expense of the other, the host. Parasites reduce biological fitness of host by general. Example is body lice and tapeworm.  

Another kind is Symbiosis, which is relationship between individuals of different species where both individuals take benefit. Example is the goby fish, which sometimes lives together with a shrimp. The shrimp digs and cleans up a burrow in the sand in which both the shrimp and the goby fish live. The shrimp is almost blind, leaving it vulnerable to predators when above ground. In case of danger the goby fish touches the shrimp with its tail to warn it. When this happens both the shrimp and goby fish quickly hideaway into the burrow.

Can you think of yourself under these two categories, which one is yours? This outer world acts like "Host" for us on which we depend. This host includes all except you. Analyze your role here whether you act as parasitic or Symbiotic!

So give up the parasitic personality if you are having by default. Understand your role towards nature where you are taking breath.

Always prefer the laws of sharing for our better growth and prosperity. Make yourself like others can take assistances from you. This is obvious, we have to depend others but always go for giving attitude. Help people and ask help from them if required.

This is the great secret by which many great accomplishments are finalized in history. Be the kind of person for whom every Tom, Dick, and Harry feels delighted and proud to be a part of you!
