One of my fav quotes...

Don’t let anyone say you can not do
…this is one of my favorite quote from the movie ‘Pursuit of Happyness’. It was said by Will Smith (acting for the role of Chris Gardner) to his son (played by real life son). The situation was like…Smith was shattered by the failures surrounding him and all he was left with was his son and ‘bone density scanner’ (which was referred to as Space Machine by an insane guy in movie). In the morning Smith took his son to a basketball court and he realized that his son was disappointed by the situation surrounding them. His son was getting weak that day and wanted to surrender in front of miseries he was experiencing. Smith was quick and adamant in replying back to his submission.

This is a small quote but has deep meaning down under. It tells you to stand by yourself and have courage to face the challenges no matter even you don’t know the proper way out. If you don’t have enough competencies to offer to your superiors, then get them fast before you are casually taken by your boss. You have to be proactive in preparing yourself for the future troubles. I know this all seems very theoretical and can’t be achieved like anything. But if you do, you will not be the same person anymore. On the other side it doesn’t mean that you have to say ‘yes’ to everything you are facing…it doesn’t mean you have to inflate your ego in agreeing to everything that comes to you. You have to be logical enough to know your capabilities and limitations to take the challenges...because every hypothesis comes with a set of assumptions…and same with this quote too.
