This article is continuation of my last article - “The feel of abundance - the real asset“. Now that we have understood the importance of having a feel of abundance, I will try to enumerate various facets of attracting abundance in life.

I would prescribe the below five fold path to attract abundance in life:

Think Big

We are really fortunate to have being born as  a human being. We all have taken birth for some special mission - the earlier we realize, the better it is for us. Through us, the universal cosmic principle wants to convey the message of its upteem potential and beauty. Abundance is our real selves - there is no scarcity ever. There is nothing called as ‘recession’ in the world of spiritual realm. We are all one of a kind. We all have the ability to assert our individuality and yet remain connected with the eternal truth.

Take this - “The world around us is nothing but a mere extension of our imagination and thoughts. What we think, what we speak - we become like that.  Our thoughts propel the surrounding around us in such a way, that it gets shaped up in the form we envision. Our thoughts emit vibrations and builts an aura around us, which has such profound effects that it starts manifesting materially. ”

So here I am, writing again at my blog after nearly two and half months. So you can imagine the kind of hectic time that I have been going through. This is the very essence of the path of Entrepreneurship – Be prepared to give up even those things, which you like to do the most. I love writing, but because of lack of time I have hardly been able to get time to write on my blog. But the very purpose of this blog was to provide a clear path to all those who are looking for directions, and I would fail in my duties, if I fail to do so. Hence, every now and then I try to squeeze out time to write on my blog.

My software company Shapia Software has come up with a cool new Social Networking site called as linkpetals. It has practically every feature that you can think of!

Following kind of people, please back out from reading this article - those who believe in the hardcore nature of life, those who don’t like Shakespeare’s blank verses and metaphors, and those who like my articles on being aggressive in life.

There is a very nice Hindi song, written in the early 1950’s, which says - ” Zindagi khwaab hai, khwaab mein such hai kya, aur bhala jhooth hai kya”. Well, let me translate it into English - ” Life is a dream, and there is nothing called as truth and lie in a dream”. I can see some smiling faces here. But as a matter of fact, this is a profound statement and a life changing one as well.We are living under the realm of our limited imagination, and the fact is that we are living like the frog who thinks the “well” is what the whole cosmos comprises of. What amazes me is that we all know that, we have limited thinking and we cannot comprehend everything beyond a point, yet we want to believe on this self-acclaimed pre-occupied notions. What a pity! There is so much more to life, than the daily humdrums. The day we cover ourselves in the veils of the cosmic principle, we will be able envision a larger universe and we will realize what we are all about.

Business is like a tora - tora ride, where at one point of time, you will be on a high, and the very next moment you will find yourself at the lowest ebb. The moment an Entrepreneur starts reacting vigorously to every high and low, then that becomes the end of the story. I still remember the words of my last company’s CEO - “Externalize in Business”. This was his answer to the question of how he managed to succeed in business. But there is a very thin line separating externalization and complacency. In business, there is no room for complacency at any point of time.

So finally, my company operations started after nearly 2 weeks of infrastructure set up. The first month has been one of the most crazy times I ever have had in my life. But as a matter of fact, I enjoyed it to the fullest. Real joy comes in life, when you know that you are able to realize and utilize your fullest potential.

The long awaited dream of mine is over. After years of gaining knowledge and trying to decipher the various intricacies of software corporate business, eventually I have been able to start on my own. I have started a software company, by the name - Shapia Software Solutions Private Limited. After 6 months of incessant efforts, the tree has started bearing fruits, and I could give shape to my dream. Juggling between job and business, I don’t know how many times I wished I had 48 hours in a day. I wanted to give my best to both the current job, and my business as well - eventually I had to squeeze in time from no where, literally running around and my mind going to find a single vacant escape route. After giving a formal and legal form and name, I have decided to quit from my job, and run my business. When I look back now, for the time I spent in last 6 months, is, all I can say is it has been worth for my patience and perseverance. There is nothing like seeing your own baby grow up and take a shape which you have had always envisioned. During this course of my transition, there has been many people who had come all the way, and tried to help me, some even criticizing to the effect that they asked me to resign from my idea of starting on my own. Initially, I had thought that the toughest part would be raising the seed fund for the business, but actually after some struggle in the initial period, I found out that there are more people who are willing to invest their money in the right channel, than those looking to get the funding. But beware, there will be tons of investors who will just rub off your idea, and doom your confidence to the lowest level. I will write a separate article on my rendezvous with the investors - I am sure, you will love that, as some of the incidents have been really funny.
