Ability to ask for help is a virtue of strong

Is it easy to ask for help? Try it for yourself and see how you find it.

You may see that your self-image of who you think you are comes in the way. The image that you want people to think you are comes in the way. And what happens is that you choose the unreal image over the life’s desire and stay where you were & even get worse – unhappy, longing, and struggling between who you are and who you pretend to be. Because deep down your reality echos and you continue suppressing it with noises of disbeliefs louder than it. And what you make people believe about you anyways doesn’t do any good to you in reality.

This is ego and this is what it does to you.

Have you ever helped someone who had asked for help?

You may have felt great or empowered about yourself, but did you perceived him as a weak man?

There was a time when i used to find it difficult to accept that i needed help and ask for it. The reason for me was the conditioning of mind and the self image where by asking for help meant seeing myself small & weak. I never questioned it and never thought there was another option. But then I realised that i was not happy, was struggling and nothing was changing in my life. When i used to see someone effortlessly asking for help, i used to envy for how simple it was for them. I wanted to be one like them when i could ask and have what i wanted with no noises in my mind. I started aspiring to be one like those who could ask for help. That’s when the image of people with ability to ask for help in my mind changed to a strong person because when i transitioned from who i was to who i wanted to be, taught me that it was not easy. The noises in the mind, the unreal self-image, the fears of how would i be perceived stopped me coming out from my comfort zone. But my perception for those i admired and like those who i wanted to be and a strong urge to achieve what i wanted gave me strength. And trust me it is only the first time that is an effort.

Once you are through, the next steps become natural and effortless with practice.

All you need to do is to re-define and decide. It is only we who have time to judge ourselves through critical parameters. No one else has. And if at all others do, that shouldn’t matter because that will only limit you from who & where you want to be.

If you help people but hesitate to ask for help, it is only your ego. Kill it – for it only needs one effort to get over the thin line and you are sorted.
