Simulation Perspective

More often than not we perform better in front of an audience ……  or at least try to give our level best.  Be it a public address, a presentation, a stage performance or simply a few pages read in front of a small crowd…..

This is only so because our consciousness compels us to move in a position where our ego and positive self image are at their peak. We label this as…. Confidence… which is infact nothing more than a fully controlled form of our own self.

This confidence gives us the strength to overcome our limitations and perform better under pressure.

However….. if we scrutinize our normal everyday lives it becomes quite evident that we do not try to be that much perfect as we do when someone is keeping a watch over us…. when there is someone in the audience….for whom we are the focus of attention. We find we are constantly breaking the laws and treading over values and morality………………..only because we feel that it means nothing to anyone else …. and no one else knows about this but us….

This devilish attitude gradually develops into a habit and becomes a part of our nature where we indulge in wrongdoings just by thinking either that no one is watching us…… or it doesn’t hurt anyone …..or that everybody else is doing it so why can’t we?

……..If only we change our perspective towards life we can alter this delinquent tendency quite easily….

Instead of thinking more of others around us….if we just try to make our own selves the focus of attention…… by thinking for a moment that we are living in some sort of  simulated world….. where the only thing real is “Me” and everyone else….. every other person…. every other object……and every situation….. is only there… either to support me or to test me in some manner.

If we just wake up everyday and start being a little selfish about ourselves we will see the world with completely different set of eyes…. We will never look at a sin as something acceptable even if it’s being practiced everywhere……We will look at it as a test of our morality and perseverance….. and we’ll score more points for keeping ourselves on the right track no matter how attractive the evil looks or how big the Satan seems…..

cause when we will know that our every action is being watched…….. every move being recorded……and every word being penned down…..we will realize that one day this whole game will end and we’ll be pulled out of the simulator…… and at that time….only the ones who reach the “high scores” in this Un-Real World ….will win!
