Perspective
-----------------
“It’s hard to look at things that are too close. If you guys are dealing with anything, that is hard to handle or doesn't seem to make much sense, then get a new perspective.”
I heard this dialogue in a movie named “Soul surfer” a year ago. “Soul Surfer” is based on a true story of a brave surfer Bethany Hamilton who is from Hawaii, US. She has survived Shark attack. She tried hard to get back to surfing even after Tiger Shark has bitten her left arm and she won the surfing tournament.
The movie is indeed inspirational. But this dialogue inspired me while dealing with many things. It helped me a lot to find a way to get out of troubles. We, Human Beings struggle for existence, struggle harder to come out of situations. Situations could be good or bad. But we expect end result to be good always. But do we consider all kinds of possibilities to come out of the situation and achieve end result? If no then what is the solution? Is there any way?
Well, the answer lies in this dialogue itself. Let’s take an example of a problem. When we are close to the problem, we are bound to it emotionally even though we know all the things related with it. Due to which we are able to see only one side of it. We are unable to see other side of the coin. Rather, our emotions do not let us see it, as other side may not be good. So what is need is to be practical in this situation and get away from the problem and instead of taking closer look, we should take the broader one.
One of my best friend once said, try to think as being a third party when you are dealing with your problems. This way you will be able to deal with them properly and find a new solution. It will be easy for you to get rid of those problems and get desired result. Sometimes the result may not be desired one but it will be better.
Let’s take another example of an opportunity. If we get an opportunity to work on a project, no matter big or small, it is the time to test our skills. We need to consider each and every small point to make this project work. For that we need to look it closer. But at the same time, to ensure that all required points are touched, or considered, we must have a broader view of the project too. We must keep verifying at every step of the project to ensure that it will work well. Having broader look along with closer look at each and every step of project helps us to achieve end result.
So, getting correct perspective while dealing with anything in life either good or bad, is necessary. For that we must be thinking practical whenever needed instead of being just emotional. Whenever we will be in trouble, we must stand still and try to think other side of coin. We know it’s not possible every time but yes we can try though. And same applies in case of opportunities to prove us.
Perspective matters everywhere. Do you agree with me? Or you have any other opinion?
