MADNESS!!!

If success and love are destinations then paths to both of them are paved by madness.

Success born of passion and strict devotion defines a lifetime of pursuit. People who have been mad about their dreams have fulfilled them in their lifetime.
It requires nothing less than unrelenting insanity to sustain and survive a lifetime of pursuit. Not many embark upon such excursions, those who do have an uncompromising attitude. Dissatisfied with what is existing, they are willing to pay any price or give any sacrifice in order to pursue a dream, seen with open eyes.
To try what has never been tried does not require a rational and sane mind but a one brimming with overwhelming passion to reach where no one has ever stepped. For such maverick pursuits a rational mind is a misfit. A rational mind always argues, evaluates risks, deliberates on loss or gain but a possessed mind thinks nothing but ways of fulfilling what is strongly desired. When you are deeply in love with your quest, risks then are mere apparitions conjured by weak-hearted, loss or gain are both immaterial. What matters is satisfaction - tranquility of the possessed soul.
Madness about our dreams gives us the strength to walk the storms of uncertainty and emerge out in the calmness of achievement. A rational mind will promptly deem such excursions as perilous and squeeze out any possibility of action. Too much of thought and risk analysis makes it too late in the day to take a stand or , for that matter, take a step.

You get possessed by a dream when you confirmly know that you have what is required to realize it. So, do not deliberate because deliberation after deciding on a path to be undertaken is worse than procrastination.
Take your risks, strike when the metal is hot and you will notice that the entire universe is in support with you.
"Itni shidat se tumhe pane ki koshish ki hai....
ki har zarre ne tumse milane ki koshish ki hai!!!"

Success and/or love are not just destination. What appear as a success now, may be immaterial lateron. So these are just a milestones which shape your future decesions and life goes on.
People donot have time celebrate do called succes as some thing more important is in waiting
This is a very different take on pursuit of dreams in life. Age-old 'Think before you leap' is put as out-of-vogue to pave way for Om-Shanti-Om-ish insanity. While intense passion for your dreams is always appreciated, in my view, insanity leads to inanity. One must always carefully weigh his options before taking any step in life. This is pragmatism as opposed to being emotional. In real world, pragmatic people are biggest winners. Of course emotional people, if they succeed, become legends. But they are not always a winner.
