Are you wondering why I mentioned I am a Zero?

You know what?

Depression has become a common mental disorder.

Most of us are in a battle to look better, feel better, be better.

But sometimes, we miss out on the very basics that leave us feeling inferior.

Most of the times, I felt,

• Someone is better than me.
• I can’t do anything better.
• I am good for nothing.
• I may not be able to do that job.

The situations are many, but due to the reactions, I felt miserable most of the times.

Do you know the reason for that?

Because I used to think I am a finished product and tried to be perfect every time.

It resulted in a lot of stress. And stress for a prolonger period results in depression.

But, I understood one thing.

I can never be a finished product and always a work in progress. For that matter, it is the same for everyone.

You may not be good at something, but you have everything to overcome it if you pay the price.

And I understood that I am a ZERO.

Are you wondering how? — Because I am unique, just like zero. For that matter, even you!

Just like zero doesn’t have any value of its own but adds value to anything by ten folds when it is at the right place.

You and I are also the same. We don’t have any value when we are alone. Yes, we can’t be the same zeroes but unique zeroes in our unique fashion.

Finding the right place for you is hard. But when you do, you can also 10X the outcome.

But do you know the real problem you have?

You don’t know yourself at the core. Or you don’t accept it.

Due to that, you can never understand the right place for you.

Due to the same reason, you sometimes compare your journey with others. — Finally, to feel low and disappointed with yourself.

I have also done the same mistakes because of which I ended up in the wrong places. It delayed my external growth.

Am I speaking about something new which you haven’t heard before?

It may or may not be.

But looking at everyone who uses uncommon terminology, you may think I want you to be like me.

Probably you must be wondering if I want you to be an entrepreneur like me.

But I want to declare that I don’t. The reason is “everyone is different with different proportions of the same flavours”. — However, if you want to be one, I would love to help you. Because following your heart is difficult when everyone is following a well-defined system.

Being a misfit is hard and feeling bad for being a misfit is so bad. So, everyone can’t fit in one thing.

Satya Nadella has become the CEO of Microsoft — The reason is “He is the best employee.”

But on the other hand, Colonel Sanders, founder of KFC, became successful after becoming an entrepreneur. — I want to remind you of his age when he started KFC. Yes, he is 65 years young at that time.

If you pay close attention, even at the age of 65 years, Colonel Sanders is not a finished product but a brand new beginning. — And the numbers begin with zero.

Yes, we are all the same but unique at the same time with different purposes and strengths.

And who we will be is based on what we want in life.

But if you want to come to the other side, remember you have everything in place for your growth.

Even me. I may not be the right person for you to reach. However, I may help you to find the right person. — Because we are all five connections away from each other.

You may think, what will Abhinay get if he helps me? — Because only an entrepreneur understands the struggles of being one.

And he/she can’t see someone giving up being one due to the hardships they face.

PS: Entrepreneur need not only be the one who starts his/her business. But also can be the one who wants to create an identity for himself/herself in their way. Yes, challenging the status quo is hard, but standing for dreams is something worthwhile which entrepreneurs do.

For your success,

Abhinay, I am a Zero, Mandla
