Build a boat and cross the pacific in it

Our life, just like pacific is profound and we got to go a long way. It is full of possibilities, favorable as well as unfavorable. There is a certain quality about boats. They flow with the tide as well as against it. Their shape is such that no matter what comes, it stays afloat. It has been built to survive against the tides.

In this pacific called life, our boat is our mind and body. If we don’t shape it up to live up to the worst, how are we going to survive through difficulties? Everyone has a different boat. It teaches us to survive on our own. You need to strive for a living just life explorers finding food in the pacific. We are explorers in the path of life. A well-built, strong and stout boat will only be able to survive.
Our mind is our navigator. A powerful navigation gives a correct direction. Direction, given by our goals and aims, keeps us afloat. An oriented mind and a good decision making capability, helps in a smooth sail. But this is life, uncertain as the pacific. You might get difficulties in achieving your goal, difficulty in finding a direction. But a mind that is ready to sail even in unfavorable conditions, is the true mark of a healthy and stable mind. Train your mind to forecast winds and storms.
Often in life we suffer handicaps. Just like Phil buck. Buck had earlier attempted to make a similar trip in 2000 but his expedition was interrupted by damage to the boat. All this difficulties did not stop him from building a boat and crossing the pacific. He bounced back, this time well equipped, with a smarter plan and a sturdier boat. Handicaps doesn’t mean end of a journey. Empower yourself to bounce back after adversities. Train your mind and body to survive the storms of life.
