People doubt everything....in most cases doubt is good...people had doubts that man cant fly...people doubted India's rise from the ashes....hell people doubt my potential in simple things...well the Wright brothers fought doubt....India is fighting the worlds doubt....I see world sideways...hence I see doubt as a cause to trigger wonderful things.....and as far as peoples doubt in me...I have just one reply...I don’t see your doubt to be a cause to be fought but I see your doubt as a thought to be pondered about.
Belief is dope. It’s adrenalin. Let me take the iconic example of India. People say that my country is 50 years old! I pity your ignorance. My beloved Mother India is at least 10000 years old. Well...sorry for the digression. I had to put that point across...anyways...I wish not to talk about outsiders not believing in my country...I wish to talk about the worst lot, some of my fellow "Indians" who believe that my country is going nowhere. The media has a big role to play in this....recently...the sudden birth of so many news channels I feel is adding salt to a fictitious injury. Be it news channels or newspapers....bad news sells...sorrow, pity and disgrace are selling like hot cakes...morality means nothing...all these are either good or surrogate offspring’s of doubt and belief. The Image of India in the outside world is a heterogeneous mix of bad and good images...we have just started getting up...we have not even started to run...and I see the output to be adulterated...still I see things positively...I have noticed that the best of things and the purest of intentions have the maximum critics...for instance, In media, You are still seeing the generation of i60's and 70's running the scheme of things...These are Socialist mindsets (I don’t see anything wrong with that parse, apart from the fact that they are Soviet loving people who still doubt their (our) own ability. They are insecure (very), no doubt about it. Our politicians are worse; they are a generation or two older.... Apparently for them US invading Iraq is a threat for India while Chinese ASAT's or their cordial relation with Pakistan aren't worth even discussing....for them merit is shit...caste and vote bank is gold!! Sooner or later the torch will be passed on to a new generation. Plus hype sells. You put "India" and "Superpower" in a headline, it will undoubtedly sell, and especially in a country which most of you guys (Westerners) thought wouldn't make it past the Soviet Disintegration. And about rich wealthy arrogant travelers, that holds true for all nations. And I'd bet that the United States has more 'arrogant' people per thousand that India.. we still have some self doubters here after all.
For all those people who doubt without credit or doubt due to jaundiced opinion or preconceived notions...all I have to say is…Doubt...doubt all you cant...this gives belief a cause to rebel against...after all...what people doubted yesterday is today...what you doubt today will be tomorrow.... get Inspired….Inspire……
