Failures Are Not Setbacks, They’re Setups for Comebacks

 By Nitesh Srivastava | New Inspiration   We’ve all faced moments when life didn’t go as planned— An exam we failed, a job we didn’t get, a dream that broke midway. In those moments, it feels like the world is ending. But what if I told you—that failure isn’t the end… it’s the beginning? Failure Is Not a Full Stop   We’ve been conditioned to fear failure. But in reality, failure is a teacher. It doesn’t close doors; it opens new ones—ones we would have never noticed if things had gone “perfectly.” Every successful person you admire has failed—many times. What makes them different? They didn’t stop. They used failure as a launchpad. The Comeback Begins with Mindset What you say to yourself after failure matters more than the failure itself. Instead of: “I’m not good enough.” Say: “Now I know what I need to improve.” Instead of: “I can’t do this.” Say: “I’ll try again, but smarter this time.” Resilience isn’t born—it’s built. Every time you get back up, you’re stronger ...

August 14: Day of Remembrance of the Horror of Separation

By New Inspiration -

India celebrated the "Day of Remembrance of the Terrible Division" on August 14. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has announced that he will observe this day in 2021. 

 August 14 also marks Independence Day in India. Pakistan. India was divided into India and Pakistan on August 14, 1947. This event  led to violence, community riots and loss of property. It is considered the most violent and sudden displacement in world history because;

  • Britain wanted to leave India as soon as possible after World War II because the condition of the country itself was deteriorating. Previously, Governor-General Lord Mountbatten was supposed to make India independent in June 1948. But he decided to move this date forward.
  • Cyril Radcliffe was assigned to redraw the border of India and Pakistan. He has never been to India before.
  • As a result, the borders of new countries were created hastily without planning.
  • This eventually led to "the horror of division" due to administrative fluxes and major community riots.
  • This event  resulted in the displacement of 10 to 20 million people and the death of about 2 million people.
                  In memory of this, the government of India has decided to hold a "Day of Remembrance of Division Horror" in the line of "Holocaust Remembrance Day". The purpose of observing these days is to reflect and learn  from them  to avoid  such things from happening in the future. It also aims to honor the memory of the victims.

The Roots of Success: A Journey of Patience and Perseverance

By New Inspiration -
Image
Once upon a time, in a small village nestled by the mountains, lived a young boy named Arjun. He was fascinated by the majestic mountains and dreamt of climbing the highest peak in the region, known as "The Titan." Every day, Arjun would gaze at the peak, imagining himself standing at the top, but he was often ridiculed by others. “You’re too young and weak,” they said. “That mountain isn’t for someone like you.” Despite the discouragement, Arjun held onto his dream. One day, he approached an old mountaineer, Raghav, who was known for his wisdom and strength. Arjun pleaded, “Teach me how to climb The Titan.” Raghav smiled and handed Arjun a small seed. “Plant this seed,” he said, “and water it daily. It will teach you the first lesson of climbing.” Confused but determined, Arjun obeyed. Weeks turned into months, and while watering the seed, Arjun noticed it hadn’t sprouted. Frustrated, he confronted Raghav, “Why hasn’t it grown? Am I wasting my time?” Raghav chuckled, “The se...

Shiva: The Eternal Symbol of Transformation and Wisdom

Shiva, revered as the "Destroyer" in Hinduism's holy Trinity, symbolizes transformation and renewal. His life imparts deep lessons on balance, devotion, and cosmic energy. Shiva's Eternal Nature Shiva is considered an eternal being, beyond the bounds of birth and death. He embodies supreme consciousness and serves as a cosmic force sustaining the universe. Depicted with a calm demeanor, a crescent moon, and the river Ganga flowing through his hair, Shiva represents mastery over time, nature, and chaos. The Tale of Neelkanth   A well-known legend of Shiva comes from the Samudra Manthan or ocean churning. When gods and demons churned the ocean for the nectar of immortality, a deadly poison (halahala) emerged, endangering all life. Shiva selflessly drank the poison, holding it in his throat, which turned blue, earning him the title Neelkanth (blue-throated one). This act showcases his willingness to sacrifice for the greater good. The Bond of Shiva and Parvati   Shiva’s ...

Embracing Change: How to Find Growth in Life’s Unexpected Moments

By New Inspiration -

Life is unpredictable. We often plan, dream, and expect things to go a certain way, only to be met with surprises, big or small, that completely alter our path. But what if we started viewing these surprises not as setbacks, but as chances to grow? 1. Redefining Change as Growth   Most of us resist change because it brings discomfort. However, every change carries a lesson, an opportunity to evolve. Think about a moment in your life when things didn’t go as planned—what did you learn? Maybe you discovered new strengths or explored paths you never would have considered otherwise. Embracing this perspective can make all the difference. 2. Embracing the Present Moment   When life throws a curveball, it’s easy to dwell on what could have been. Instead, try to focus on the present moment. Take a breath, acknowledge your feelings, and then look for the silver linings. Ask yourself, "What is this moment trying to teach me?" Often, the answers lie in quiet reflection. 3. Taking Sm...

The New Year is more than just a date on the calendar; it’s a fresh start, a blank page waiting to be filled with the stories we want to write. Each January, the world collectively pauses to reflect, reset, and reignite the fire within to chase dreams and build a better future. The Spirit of New Beginnings   A New Year symbolizes hope.

Setting Intentions, Not Just Resolutions   While resolutions are often grand and ambitious, they can sometimes feel overwhelming. Instead, fo...

Climate Change and Its Impact: Understanding the Global Crisis

  Introduction   Climate change is one of the most pressing issues of our time, affecting every corner of the globe. From rising temperatures to melting ice caps, the impacts of climate change are far-reaching and profound. In this post, we'll explore what climate change is, its causes, and the myriad ways it affects our planet and our lives. What is Climate Change?   Climate change refers to significant and lasting changes in the Earth's climate, particularly an increase in average global temperatures. While natural processes can influence climate, the current trend of rapid warming is primarily driven by human activities. The Science Behind Climate Change The main culprit behind climate change is the increase in greenhouse gases (GHGs) in the atmosphere. These gases, including carbon dioxide (CO₂), methane (CH₄), and nitrous oxide (N₂O), trap heat from the sun, creating the greenhouse effect. This effect is essential for life on Earth, but an excess of GHGs intensifi...
