There
is no such thing as “the best”. The biggest mistake people make is that they
want to choose that which is the best. Whether it is your career, marriage,
spiritual choices, ultimate choices – there is no best thing to do in your
life. If you put your everything into what you
choose to do, it becomes a great thing. You should have something
great going, not the best, because the best is in comparison with something
else. Right now, you are feeling great, not because this is the best day or
the best place in the universe. There is no such thing. But if you put
yourself into it, it is a great place in this planet.
Drop
this idea of choosing the best thing or finding the best person for you in
your life. There is no such person in the universe. The moment you compare
and ask if this is the best one, or if something else would be better, you
will always be confused. Even when you are being buried, you will wonder if
you are in the best coffin. What if you wanted a mahogany coffin but they
chose something else? Even there, you will twist and turn, because you have
lived your whole life in comparison.
Each
road is right in some way or the other. The only thing is to accept the
reality with constant evaluation of the results achieved. If there is
constant evaluation, then you will easily locate the mistakes commited and
correct the mistakes in a right way, and that results into ultimate success.
The problem is to accept the mistakes and correcting them without any silly
arguments. If this is done, then all roads becomes the best one at the end.
