It matters little from where you begin.. just start , if you have :

(1)belief in yourself

(2)confidence in your intentions

(3)doggedness in your ambition to succeed

(4)determination and will power to see

it through to its end


When distilled, deep rooted belief in two Latin phrases has been the basis of the confidence of the Heroes.


..... ex nihilo nihil fit


If you wait for all ducks to fall in line, well that would happen only in proverbs. In real time the ducks don't necessarily follow each other and if you keep waiting for them to fall in line before you shoot, your guests for dinner would grow hungry and you would drive home with not enough ducks in your basket ! Waiting for all elements to be in place , is like buying yourself an explanation if were you to fail. But the greatest real time failure is 'inaction' - waiting to be sure before start ... waiting for all ducks to fall in a straight line before triggering off !!!


Doing things is important, if you care for results. Without doing things, you will not get the results even remotely close to what you desire. You have to do something, before you get something. Begin.


..... sic pravis magna


Race of life is a different kind of a race. Here competitors are not all qued-up in a line before they get a common call to start ; neither a person waving a flag to give a ......... 'GO' ...call. The runners here are also not clusterd on any common age, gender class basis. The small fight the big, the fast fight the slow, the lion may fight the lamb and yet you have to win. Sometimes, you may be the Lion and some other times, you may be the Lamb. It is a common race for success of the inequals. Only you matter and presence of the 4 Hero elements in you. Begin once you perceive their presence. Being small, weak or being unsupported in any ways, is not the limitation.


I love to hear stories that reflect - sic pravis magna..it means greatness from small beginnings. Someone told me that real life is agony and that these rag to riches stories happen only in movies. How strongly do I disagree with such non-sensical presuppositions.


Evidences, a galore - it is ability to rise about the agony displayed by some and feared by most that that maketh the 'hero' differentiator.


Personally, I have serious belief in these 2 phrases and have ever used it to drive and motivate myself. I say it works like magic.. you should try it. Be a hero.
