Free Your Hands to Succeed

You have been gifted a pair of hands.  Not all people are lucky.  Some are born without it.  Some lose it in their life time due to accidents or health reasons.  We take them and all our other natural gifts for granted ever so often because we did not pay or it and were given without having asked for it.  It was a natural progression.

Take a flashback to your childhood early years and remember that you used your hands to crawl and started moving forward.  Have you ever seen a child that has used his hands to move backwards?  Why don’t we take inspiration from this little but such an important milestone of our lives that we must move ahead by making use of our hands.  Internally, our brain works and externally, it is the hand that translates that thought into action.

If you wish to succeed in life, you have to make the best use of your hands like how I am doing now.  In this mobile generation, we have limited that use of hand to our left and right hand thumb.  We are using these gifted these resoures but to a far limited extent.  The thumbs enable us to make use of mobile phones to communicate, send mails, further our business communication but imagine how little we are putting them to use.

If you dwelve deeper, you will realise that each hand has been gifted with five fingers each.  The lesson that we learn here is that as we stretch our resources, God has multiplied them so that we can achieve more.  The power in our arms, translates that power into our fingers enabling us to achieve action orientation.

We have never seen a sprinter being able to run with his hands in his pocket.  Try climbing a steep mountain or a flight stairs with your hands in your pocket.  Possible but probably very difficult.  Similary, if you want to succeed in life, make good use of your hands.  All the power is in the hands.  Use them to write down your plans, to shake hands with people, to buiild new relationships, to accomplishing something, to design or create something, to maintain something and so on.  Success in business is very much like climbing the stairs or going up a steep mountain.  You can only go higher if you make effective use of your hands.

Having your physical hands free but they are mentally tied also does not help.  It is as good as having none.  Find creative uses of your hand and achieve success.
