Sometimes, somebody’s delusion can be somebody’s illusion

In our minds, we compass new ideas, new notions, and new perspectives that are relevant to ourselves and to the world. We as a people, whether we are rich or not, of the same race or not, belong to the same religion or not, deeply felt once in a while, are we relevant? The moment it hits our minds as relevant to our lives, people lose hope and live without a threshold to be great or do something right. 

Relevance is far more important than others’ opinions

Mostly, we judge ourselves on the basis of what people think of us, like a slow disease that affects every cell of the body. The biggest disease in the world, more lethal than cancer, is what people think of us. The moment we give other opinions more power, we lose our grip, causing us to lessen the self-worth and confidence that make us unique. 

People’s opinions are a fragrance in the air; the moment you smell it, you experience it, and the moment you don’t give it any attention, you are free from such a spell. On the other side of the spectrum, we don’t love ourselves the way we love others; that’s one of the most disturbing things, and at the same time, we seek more attention from others and give more power to others than to ourselves. How strange is that? 

Be Delusion

First, we must remember that we are the power that not only exists in us but also exists in the same way in the whole universe. The power is the same, or you can call it energy. The law of conservation of energy, which is important and must be understood by everyone, is expressed as “energy is neither created nor destroyed.” How fascinating that is, never felt we are the one literally, and all in one or one in all. The moment we understand that, we now automatically divert it to ‘some supreme power.’ But don’t believe anything directly unless you know it. Rather, investigate it, question it, and once you find those answers, you don’t need to have faith; rather, you know that more important. 

On the subject of delusion, finding such an answer can be hard and take time, though they are one of the paths, but still it is the path. First, we have to think of ourselves as great, one of a kind, like a king who not only conquered the world but also conquered each and every moment spent on this earth. That doesn’t sound realistic, we know, but it is the essential step to be great in whatever field we choose, chosen by or, most importantly, love to pursue. 

Study the Great and Become Greater

Michael Jackson once said, “Study the great and become greater.” Repeat this statement in your heart, whenever you get the chance to learn from the greats who are the master in your field – learn from it, exhaust yourself from it, and be consumed to such a degree that their knowledge becomes yours. Don’t forget to bring your own knowledge on top of that, then everything becomes more relevant in your eyes.

Mentioning delusion, first have self-belief, no matter what, whether the situation is aligned with one’s favour or against. Sometimes, in life, we’re drifting like a lost leaf, struggling against the waves, hard to find the path, swifting with or against the waves. Like a lost leaf, we lose sight in the midst of chaos, and in such difficulties, if we can believe, everything afterwards becomes forward in our lives. No matter what the situation, always have self-belief to the highest degree, not a single percent of doubt, only delusional, unwavering belief. If you want to have what others won’t, you’ve got to be willing to do what others don’t. Don’t wait for anyone – just be delusional!
