What do you do when you want to climb up the stairs?
"You should aim to reach the top and then take a step forward..."
"One should always take the right foot forward...touch it down, then take the left foot forward...and so on"
"It's simple ...just keep on climbing the stairs till you reach the top..."
"You should not be afraid to climb.....but be brave enough to go ahead and achieve your vision....."
These are just some of the "right" answers that I keep on getting every time I put forth this question. It's a question one of my faculties had asked us in one of his classes. And what the class answered then was (is) nothing different from the answers that I get today. For some strange reason what we answer or try to reason is right....but all these answers miss a basic point. A point which lies at the crux of being able to move forward.
And if you are smart enough....you must have realized by now that really right answer is to let go of the step where you are standing right now. Only then will you be able to move forward. What I or you would normally get as an answer (on asking this question) are things that we would do once we let go of the step where we are standing.
It as simple as this. That's what we seem to miss. So the next time you think of climbing the stairs remember that to climb up all you need to do is let of the step where you are standing and move forward.
