Uphill and Downhill

 Uphill and Downhill. 

Today,I took an elevation route for my morning run.

While running Uphill,my  muscles cramped as the climate was  very hot and weather today a bit humid.

Body had heated up.Face flushed.I was sweating profusely. 

It reached a point I was thinking of stopping to catch a breath.

I paused for a moment. Stretched.

Started jogging slowly. 

But I didn't stop running. 

Then came the Downhill.

Every one feels running down is very easy.

That's actually not so.

Running Downhill is difficult as lot of pressure comes on the knees.

We get more injured,in fact,running Downhill than doing the Uphill.

The Downhill requires more controlled and mindful body movements during the run.

Life too is so similar. 

When we face difficult phase in life....

Stressed,Tired,and frustrated....moving ahead if becomes cumbersome and demanding...

Pause.

Energize yourself. Analyse the situation. 

Then begin the journey to move ahead.

But never quit.

Slow down a bit but never stop walking the path.

When the path feels easy,all circumstances are in our favor,every one is appreciating us....there is no competition nor any obstacle ......an absolutely clear path laid out for us....

Just like the Downhill run....

Remember accidents and mishaps....mistakes happen most when path is all clear with no obstacles. 

We need more mind control and vigilant rather being careless and relaxed....during the easiest ,smooth,uncomfortable path or moments of our life.

As a student, we tend to make more mistakes due to overconfidence and impulsion when we get very easy paper.

Same time,if the exam is very difficult then do not quit.....Pause. Analyse.Tackle slowly. But never stop.

Best wishes to all Medical aspiring students for their NEET UG exam to be held in May.

Best wishes to students who will be giving any competitive exams like IIT JEE Advance,CLAT,CET.
